Hey guys,

( not actually my first post i just havnt been on in so long my last account got deleted)

ANYWAY, couple of days ago i noticed my r33 s2 tst pissing out coolant down the side of the block, Then came a bubbling reserve tank and a VERY warm engine.. GOOD NEWS head is in good shape BAD NEWS mechanic says the reason is the little pipe that comes out of the side of the water outlet housing straight from the block is all cracked this is bad news because the part is gonna take 4 weeks from japan (yet to call around australia myself yet) and apparently you cant remove one from a car and keep the part in tack which rules out a wreckers (true or false ? ) has ANYONE had the same happen ? really in a bind as to what to do i can get a second hand one tommorow but if its just gonna break whats the point, Someone ? anyone ?

My advice is to wait for the new part, dnt rush the fix or itl be problematic dwn the track.
