^ Looks like you should be getting lawyered up and slap them with a lawsuit. Did they do the installation or was it given to you in order for you to knock it out? Just asking as you have posted pictures of the entire engine and transmission.
Definitely fix, a new headgasket isn't too difficult to install and if you have some assistance then it should be relatively quick. Ask around the forums to see if there is anyone in your area willing to help, I know I've seen some modded Protege's from around your area. I know Fattimotorworks...
Nice, you got pictures? I was looking to get either a F series or a Ram but decided to spend a little less and got my Nissan Titan Pro4X. Hopefully you decided to get the Protege out of storage, too epic of a build to let it sit around.
Damn, sorry to hear that. I know how that feels, it's been 2 years and 4 months since this things been running. I'm excited to get this thing going. Have you checked out the MFactory GB for their gear sets? Looks to be promising, plus if you coupled that with the Ferdi trans brace it could...
Thanks Maxx, I've been patiently waiting on some updates in your build thread. Wanted to know what you've decided on the transmission or if that's already up and running
I know this update is a little less informative and my thought process is running everywhere but I'm in the middle of work and just wanted to post something up as I forgot about this thread.
I also got some MS6 front brakes, DBA 4000 rotors, and Hawk HP Plus pads. They look good behind the Enkei EVO 8 wheels ;)
The Samco hose is a little too close for comfort to the wastegate but I'm hoping the DEI tape helps out on that issue.
So it's been a long while since my last update and I've made some significant progress on it. I got the motor all together and installed all the hard brake lines. Master cylinder is on and all but the front motor mount is on. Also installed the subframe, tie rods and tie rod ends. Steering rack...
Gabi, are you looking for the MBSP with the oil return line or just any MBSP? If adding a AN fitting for the return line then you can get away with just a regular. If Preferio doesn't have one, I do have an extra NA MBSP.
For Sale is an ACT clutch and pressure plate (Z66-HDSS Kit). This kit has 0 miles on it. It was assembled and installed, then cranked the engine to find out my motor was in need of a rebuild. This was 2 years ago and my new goal for this motor places it out of the usable range of this kit which...
^ I'm honestly slightly confused as how this is a write up as there is no real step by step direction of how to install the AEM Ignition amp, or the COP's. This is literally a cut and paste of the instructions that you receive with the AEM unit and the Haltech setup is pretty common sense for...
