i think im done for the season :/

[originalsin]

so i installed my bov 2day, went well works good and i decided to take care of an exhuast rattle, got that done, i also knew i had a leak sumwhere (exhuast) so i searched for that, and its my manifold to turbo gasket. and ontop of this i noticed oil on the side of the block. im really hoping this isent a headgasket, it looks like it could have been a line, but time will tell. i also noticed some wat i think is gear oil on the bottom of my transmission so i think thats leaking. so i think its time to find a garage, park the car, pull the motor and start to refresh/upgrade watever is causing problems.

Im on the same boat man,got one last Nissan/Infinity track day later today(its 1am sat..) and then ill park it to fix various things,got to replace so many cracked/old/rotten/loose connections.

This is why I dont get why people just get the motors and throw them in sometimes (not saying you guys are the same). But I meet so many SR fools who do this all the time and complain when it comes to hedgasket or vacuum line replacement time. bleh, kids with a little money. a real adult would be worried about the reliablity of his/her lil speeder.

Edit: Just ranting, had a rough day. sorry!

[originalsin]

yea, im not pissed, its a 15yr old motor that gets driven relatively hard, im not rly complaining, just kinda letting ppl know i guess lol idk, but yea stuff will get taken care of, and itll b faster when it hits the road again

Yeah, I guess thats what I meant to say before too! I got 2 jobs now so it should be rolling in soon enough. I still cant find a decently priced oil pump to save my life! I found a company that will sell for $260 + shipping, but thats waaaay to high. I need to get it done before the snow comes, riding the bus in winter sucks big ballz.

[zero_gripS13]

topline sells them for around 180-200 or something...

[Pumaking]

I believe courtesy sells them for $90+ shipping.

[Dattebayo]

courtesy is on back order for a couple of months. 180 is still too much.

Dude, that is the going price of a good pump. But if you can find a good quality pump cheaper than that, go for it.

i think i gota spare old one laying around. just open it up and spec it and if its still in spec throw it back on. its just two gears hard to really messs up a oil pump.
