need advice

[the hippie]

ok im new to this place so sorry if i sound like if i dnt kno wat im doing i got alot of criticism on my last post

ok heres my prob l have a rod knock and im pritty shhur that i blew my head gasket cuz there was smoke and water coming out btween the block and head i turn it on and it still runs and the turbo still boosts. im kinda short on cash and wat i really want is to have it running cuz its my daily driving car. how much will a rebuild cost or would it b cheeper to get another block? any info would really help thanx

Quickest way is to get a JDM engine. You can find one for around a grand. A reasonably good rebuild will cost about that much. Look at this as an opportunity, Get the JDM engine, and the take your time and do a monster rebuild on the old engine. My JDM lasted about four years, before it blew it's gasket, and all I did was re-torque the head before I put it in.

In the time it has taken you to receive replies to your post, you could have used the search button.

This has been discussed MANY MANY times.

this is your third fucking post without using the search button.

The search function doesn't work well for me, so I avoid using it myself. Maybe he's had bad luck with it too.

It's because both you guys don't take the time to learn how to use it.

Rayallo1 - continue to avoid using the search function and you will get the same treatment.

There is tons of info here...how about just looking through the Build Gallery?

Hippie - You need to read this:

Thread closed.

That was the response Hippie got when his last thread was closed. He obviously did not take my advice...he continues to provide min info and follows that by posting a thread with spelling/grammar bad enough to give me a headache. Then whines about it. The text messaging lingo BS will not cut it anywhere on SM.

Hippie - there is low tolerance in the Tech section for this. I suggest you take my advice.
