    I don't have much to say... I had so many cooling problems with my GTR I got sick of fixing the same things over and over and over. I always had a light film of oil in my coolant but then again the coolant was always disgusting looking until I got it flushed. Thats when things really started leaking. I picked up a rebuilt engine but won't be able to swap it until spring because snow is coming. I don't have the luxury of a heated garage or a big enough one to pull the engine without leaving the car in the driveway. I'm pretty sure it was my waterpump that let go, but my HG was most definitely on its way out the back door along with bad rings causing low compression (130-140). I'm looking to make a bit more power at the wheels so I decided to pick up a new longblock. Check your compression and if it's good or If one cylinder is down (HG) I wouldn't recommend going as far as I did. Just replace the headgasket. I have one leftover from my OEM gasket kit I'll let go at a decent price.
    Dang! You got shocks, pegs... Lucky! You ever take it off any sweet jumps?
