Yeah thats what I am leaning towards. Will have to wait a few weeks. Hopefully the head is ok, I only drove it around the block. What a waste of $55 of oil.

+1 for the cometic, I use to run them in my SR builds. I used many Jap branded ones and the cometic MLS are as good IMO.

 

Sorry to hear about the Head Gasket.

that sucks, as long as it was fun for the minute it lasted haha :y:

[B.L.Z.BUB]

It was definitely exciting. Hopefully its as simple as a new gasket and oil. Wont happen till I'm back for my xmas break anyway.

[glenpos]

haha first time i drove mine, second lap the idler pulley fell off so the belt came off, blew the head gasket, temp gauge only went to half.... and i just thought the lack of power would have been the pvc intercooler piping melted, but no... :no2: was as good as new with another gasket, hopefully yours will be as easy :y:

Need a scrub and a paint. Looks like the pinion seal might be leaking.

Looks like something you would retrieve from a sunken shipwreck.

Nothing a lick of rust kill wont fix.

Is it going to become an LSD?

 

By the way, you can buy bolt-on swaybar mounts from Whiteline.

Yeah will probably buy a whole center if I can, its only zenki so hopefully wont cost a bazillion dollars.

Pretty much what I expected. Pricey for what they are. I may as well just u bolt over the standard mounts.

[glenpos]

cool mate, haha thats stupid could make them easily for like $10 haha

Can anyone give me advice on what thickness head gasket I should get? Should I stick with a standard thickness or go slightly thicker with the increased boost?

[Aussie_KE70]

It depends on how high your increase of boost is. If its only a couple of PSI I would stay with standard thickness. Plus a thicker Head gasket does not change your static compression a great deal anyways.
