I guess I can post this here...

The car is le' broken.

I'll post more details later on... but as of right now I bought an extra motor today.... along with SO much other crap. (2 stock turbos and manifolds) headlights, tail lights, engine wiring harness, alternators, starters, powersteering pumps, etc etc etc all for $500.

So regardless, I got the parts to fix whatever my issue is.

Compression in #1 is 120, the rest is 170....

This happened after I sprayed against someone and I then got it towed home.

Oil looks fine, not milky, no shavings in it, etc.... still need to drop the oil pan to inspect.

The VC is off and everything visually looks okay...

You dumb ass... you broked it! Hopefully it's an easy fix with the spare parts you got!

Posted: **Fri Oct 08, 2010 9:58 pm**

It happens...=/

Posted: **Fri Oct 08, 2010 10:11 pm**

Damn that blows.. but hey its happens, whats the saying you pay to play

.

Hopefully everything goes good on the rebuild!!

Posted: **Fri Oct 08, 2010 10:39 pm**

that sucks man

good luck with fixing that

Posted: **Fri Oct 08, 2010 11:10 pm**

One thing I've learned is that oil dipsticks lie! Sounds like a bent rod to me. Bet the skirts of the piston are hitting your crankshaft counterweights.

Posted: **Fri Oct 08, 2010 11:13 pm**

Ugh. The ups and downs of nitrous.

Sort of want a stock turbo.

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 2:11 am**

Oh noes! It sounds like a sewing machine.

Time for a shortblock

Holy shit thats a fucking deal.

Sorry bout the car man, even though you seem pretty content lol. That's why I've always been afraid to mess with nitrous too much.

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 11:59 am**

Ouch.that sounds bad. Hopefully it ain't too much of a cost to fix it.

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 1:42 pm**

Boxes of parts...

AEM Box = head...rest have misc stuff in them.

Oh hai thar motor.

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 1:51 pm**

Seems like an ideal time to build that motor a little bit...

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 1:54 pm**

Send me the money, it'll get built.

I don't need a built motor for my power goals though.

350-400hp max is my goal

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 1:55 pm**

That's no reason not to make sure your "new" bottom end will handle more if you get bored...

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 2:54 pm**

Meh - the reason is empty wallets... but I just went out and took pictures of all the extra stuff I have. (well some of it) to post up for sale.

Not sure if I get my $500 back or not but I'll probably get a decent bit.

Posted: **Sat Oct 09, 2010 3:32 pm**

In for items for sale post.

Break it upgrade it id atleast get pistons if your gonna be spraying i know the stock will hold it but yeah

Posted: **Mon Oct 18, 2010 11:56 pm**

The plan was to pull my motor.. put the head on my spare motor I just got and transfer over my newer parts (timing belt stuff and what not)

After actually looking at the spare motor I got... that won't be happening...

I should of saw it when I bought it but when he said I could buy all those parts for $500, I didn't really inspect the block. It's okay though because I made my $500 back already.

At this point I guess all I can do is pull my motor and inspect it... to see if I want to reuse these "newer" stock stuff or try to do a budget rebuild.

I've never really gone this "deep" into the motor.. most I usually do is bolt ons or head gaskets and that's about it.

So it's the first time I disassembled a motor.. it was pretty fun but I have no idea if these pistons/rods look to be in good shape.

They look good to me but meh...

Posted: **Tue Oct 19, 2010 8:15 am**

In the 2nd to last pic... is the rod end not tightened down all the way? If not, that'd be a problem...

Posted: **Tue Oct 19, 2010 8:19 am**

No they're not... I just took them out... they WERE tightened though.

Posted: **Tue Oct 19, 2010 8:20 am**

OK, just saw how the rest all look like they're tightened and then that one has a gap...

Otherwise they seem OK to me too, although all I know comes from car shows on spike TV, haha. How are the bearings?

It's all in the tune, son (and sometimes a bit of luck). I guy on .org ran a 90 shot on his car for years with no issues. Some people run a 50 shot and go BOOM.
