Ty Rafa. I bought the car in March as a rolling chassis whit stockt GTS-T boday parts. At the start I bought the engine did minor tweaks on the car spant almoust V$20 000 for compleating it later I got the GTR Parts. We will see bout the photos afther I finish the engine works.

Added 1 hour 15 minutes later:

Well let me start of whit the only good news.

My cousn gave me a job at his body shot to earn the money for the R32 fix. I will take a customer fix his car and take all the money for my self (except the parts money)

Now for the bad news.



When I bought the car I did a rookie mistake. I didn't check the engine mounts since all was looking great and under a coat of paint that looked original.
Now I saw that the engine mounts are twisted and that caused all my problems.

Lets start naming from top to bottom. From all the vibration the camshaft bearing bridges got loose, the intake lasted almoust till the combustion strok. The exhaust stroke starts a 1 sec befour intakes troke and ends half a sec befour intake stroke, the camshafts got twisted and they damaged the cilinder head. From the vibrations the crank got bent and it bent the conection rods, and the pistons scratched the engine block.So I inspected the engine block and its good the vibrations didn't damage it. Today will do some more inspections on the blick, but for now I need new crank,con-rods,pistons,cilinder head,camshafts and the bearings, The only parts that I can say for shure are 100% functional is the intake and the exhaust manifold whit the parts on it.

Good thing I garaged it now could imagine what would have happened on the road if I went on for a touge spin and redlining it :(
Sadly I have to put the Zilla on the jacks and keep it there for a while :(
