Hi recently my stupid timing belt flew off while the car was running and i snapped 2 valves in my engine. I replaced those valves and then started it up and it had a ticking noise. Eventually the ticking noise went and then i drove it around a bit and all of a sudden my car over heated and started stalling. Then since then it is making a hobering noise when the car warms up after starting. The noise isn't constant just on and off but noticable. What could this noise possibly be??? I assume it is from when the timing belt flew off what other damage could of it done??? :) It is a skyline r33 gtst.

Sounds like a blown head gasket, were the surfaces perfectly clean when you reassembled, and the head bolts torqued, what head gasket did you use?Were all the valves checked, how were the pistons?I would start with a compression test.Did you bleed the cooling system after you did it?

    • Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by

    • full send the cnut, do this   fark the wrapping and/or stick on siet. These guys are the ones to go to: https://www.realthermo.com.au/  
    • Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving  
    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
