Wow thats a big burrito

Im currently resisting the urge to pull the trigger and engine out the skyline

ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh doooooooooooooooooo eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeettttttttttttttt

ask Bunts he's the man to help you with that

I hope i'm earning that much by the time i'm your age...

I spent quite a few years working for less than average wage gaining experience and struggling financially. Sometimes you have to get lucky (which I was), but I worked hard to be in the right place at the right time.

If you can't see a rainbow on the horizon, pick a new horizon to hike towards :)

Are you going to engine out to fix the head studs Scott?

I want to yes. MAster plan at this stage is to rip the motor out, get the head and block bored it to fit larger studs. Whilst the engine is out it will give me a good opportunity to tidy up the engine bay and remove a lot of unwanted/unneeded parts and probably respray it too.

Engine mounts also need changing. But if i do this it will more than likely effect the cooler piping and exhaust lining up properly

Sounds like a solid undertaking, at the rate I work that's about 3 years worth! ha ha

Hahaha, with the way I've been dropping cash into this car it wont take long. Really need to take a step back and curb the spending for a few months

    • The overboost could be more of a cause. Broken turbines usually ends up in the cat, time to engine rebuild. Blown stock turbos can be high flowed with bigger and modern wheels for greater power goals.    
    • Yeah was gonna say as it wouldn't line up correctly, I imagine if they put the wheel that way it would mess with the wheel alignment.
    • My Neo turbo only went last year. Not 35 years old, to be sure - closer to 25. But still.
    • There's no way they left the factory like that. In R chassis there is nothing stopping the steering wheel being put on one spline out from straight, and then adjusting the steering arms to "correct" it (sort of). As well as the indicator cancelling there would also be an issue with how tight you can turn in one direction to the other. The other (less likely) possibility is that the "clock spring" (the circular electronic part that allows the wheel to turn while still having an electrical connection for horn and any other buttons like cruise) might not be in place correctly. I don't have any pics of the R33 (or Stagea) setup but there would be a circular locating tab which sits in the steering column to have it straight...if that is not seated properly then the indicators may not cancel at the right point (and, you might also get a HICAS error since it would think you are driving in circles)
