I have never been to any other places besides Toysgarage in Fairfield (my brother inlaw's place) so I dont know much out there but you can basically go to any good machanics and get it done, I would personally go to a machanic that are knowlegable about performance vehicles, rather then a general mechanics ones. beside changing the engine's oil, oil and air filters, spark plugs, they should also inspect your engine bay areas, all the joints, bearings under the car for wear and tear. alternatively you can DIY just do a basic service, go to a spare parts retail and tell them your car make, year model etc... and ask them for oil/air filters, set of spark plugs and dont forget a quality bottel of oil.

hope that help! :down:

+1 Ive never taken any of my cars to a mechanic

id rather keen my $90p/h to myself

90 and hour? pfft thats cheap...most places charge 100+

1+ for doing basic oil/filter stuff yourself....and brakes to a certain extent but don't go playing around with your brakes unless you know what your doing.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
