Badluck Chef. If you sell the JZX110, it might cover the cost of the Series 3 headlights Shame to hear this has happened, was looking forward to hearing lap times. Maybe a good story for your PI column.

I think some Hi-res wallpapers are in order.
-
Most likely need a new battery. Just had the same problem with both my cars.
-
Damn, we finish at 4. I'll be up for the next one.
-
I'm working on the 9th. What time does it finish? Might come by after work.

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows of a mobile stud remover bloke in the Gympie QLD area. I have no hope of getting them out myself. Cheers Simon
-
No idea, i only noticed it when i started the car one morning and drove too work. May have started a long time ago when it started ticking, it wasn't that loud and i just put it down to tappet noise.
-
So this is the result boys. Turns out the manifold was in 2 pieces. Looks to have blown a small chunk out. The cracks have followed the cast lines.
-
Thanks for the tip. I start on it 2moro. Parts arrived from justjap today, they sent me the wrong front pipe but no big deal, it's not essential.
-
Thanks guys, might not need ezi outs yet. I'll see how bad it is once i get the manifold off.
-
Thanks Tangles. I see a pattern forming. Was your car stock?
-
Thanks Rich. I managed to score a free manifold off a mates old motor. Studs and gasket on the way from justjap. Just got to learn how to use ezi outs.
-
Thanks Troy, i'll check it out.
-
That's the reason i took mine off. I'll put it back if i start doing trackdays.
-
Everything looks to be in the right spot. will have a close look when i put my new front pipe on.
-
looks the same as the one i'm replacing it with
-
And my usual luck.

Never drive it that hard, just 10 mins to work and back. Always drive easy so it should never get red hot. Used to have a timer but didn't need it for the way i drive.
-
Thought that could be a reason. My profec B II shit itself 6 months back, wouldn't control the boost at all. It may have hit 20psi once or twice before i pulled it out. Profec had been faultless for 2 years beforehand.
-
That's what i'm asking. The car only has FMIC, catback and EBC running 10psi. It's the actual manifold at the turbo. Ever seen one that bad, Rich?
-
Would a couple of broken studs be the cause or the effect?? Can't beleive the stock manifold could fail so easily.
-
Sounds a bit like mine, pretty sure it's either ex mani gasket or broken stud. It appears to be common problem with RBs. I pull pulling the mani off in the next couple of weeks to confirm and repair.
-
That was Steve's (HKS26T).

I'll be up for BF:BC2, Ash. Bought it recently, and have been playing a bit. I'm always up for CS:S still. Broke up with my missus, so no more whinging in the background.

Jasma isn't a brand. It's the regulatory body for exhaust in japan. All japanese exhausts will have that marking.
