    Next build I will be sending the head in to be done for me, I would have spent easy 8-10hrs lapping valves in to set the lash and messing about with valve stem seals (was learning though) and I think most places will do new stem seals, guides, deck it, and set your lash for like $800 or so. My issue was he was not available for 3-4wks.

    Ask in the RB group on FB, prob have a definite answer in a few minutes. Odd it's not clearer for such a common platform.

    I'd talk to your local preferred head builder, unless you are planning to do the work yourself? They will have appropriate guides and know what fits. From what I can see in/ex is same both sides at 5.95mm ID

    Nothing wrong with OEM at modest power levels so long as you keep the head clamped down with good studs. I ran Hylomar spray on the CA one also as it was advised, not sure if it's a good thing or not but I had no issues and had lightly resurfaced the block myself (head was decked). Would neo have different oil feed line in the gasket for the intake variable timing actuator?

    Not terrible, could've been much worse. Fingers crossed

    Found a spare 25 neo linking him to this thread/trying to get details.

    I've PM'd a few contacts and just chucked in on the NCR user profile, you can watch the post and see if anything comes of it. If my mates turn up something I will let you know, they are usually pretty good at coming back to me quickly.

    I know a guy down your way, let me message him.
  9. No Crust Racing
    Send me what you want and I will put the call out on NCR if it helps.

    I was doing a stock refresh on this 5cyl, then it got block mod shims and I bought a whole donor car to take all the performance bits of it... the "stage 3" tune is sitting on the handset waiting for the car to survive run in. Always be upgrading...

    Must be nice to have a fully working car after 3yrs... I can't relate.
  12. No Crust Racing
    I'll just sit quietly and say nothing about timelines or engine rebuild projects...

    I thought it was a bit cheeky honestly, given the hardware was always capable of it. Yes yes testing needed and it was free etc, but still.
  14. No Crust Racing
    Yes, should have clarified that, thought it would be obvious to those playing at home.

    I have recently had to install a new clutch twice, and the box went on no worries both times, once in and once out of the car. Both times without an aligning tool, mine is MIA, you really can just do it by eye. I was shocked at how easy it was without it.

    Where there any other signs of turbo failure? Oil in intake etc? Cant think of when I've heard of boost leaking past seals into crankcase.

    Re box, box is a lot easier to move around than the engine IMO. You will want 2 sets of hands regardless. Personally, I'd put the engine in then bring the box to meet it as it's easier to maneuver. If your engine crane setup has the balance bar, that can help immensely. Otherwise, use ratcheting straps, but remember they only go one way under load

    Anyway, I've offered, not much more I can do to assist here. Hope it goes well.

    When I say cheap I mean free my dude. Machining, 1-1500, parts, 1-3k? New motor.
  20. No Crust Racing
    Get it machined and I imagine you could do the work to rebuild it yourself if you wanted to, but I'm saying that after having invested a lot of hours and a few bucks in in learning and having just started a fresh build that didn't blow up (just pisses out oil from new front and rear mains lololol). Send it to NCR and I'll build it for you cheap as but you get zero warranty lol
  21. No Crust Racing
    Sorry to see that mate, hope the repair goes well, are you DIYing it?
  22. No Crust Racing
    Quoted here for posterity....
  23. No Crust Racing
    Always seems like a big project but everyone I've seen do it, even in newer cars, always says it's awesome.
  24. No Crust Racing
    Man, R33 interior is iconic to me, mad memories.
  25. No Crust Racing
    oh that's great
