Can you please take pics in reverse order and post them up as a "DIY: How to Remove K-Series Head" please? You can also post the correct order of torquing and their specs if you don't mind. I'm sure that can help out A LOT of people, including myself. Please, and thank you very much. We will definitely give you rep!Quote:

Very clean, minus the connecting point for rod 2 for piston 2
Yea I was very surprised of the out come and wasn't expecting the damage to be so lite.
Sucks the crank is toast doh.
Spent the morning cleaning the head and getting it all nice and clean..
Since this is new to me, is the crank toast because journal 2 got scraped up from rod 2 and that unbalanced the crank? Because in this case, I believe you can get the crank rebalanced. But this isn't something I'm experienced with, that's just my thought/interpretation.Quote:

Ok and ah, that's understandable. How come? For informational purposesQuote:

Ah, so your parting out? Are you going back to stock to tell the car?
Well at the moment still having thoughts what route to go
Option 1 put a stock a3 in it and DD till i trade it in for something else
Option 2 Re-build it and spend alot of dough and one day be down again...
Option 3 sell all the items and see how much i get back and go fron there.
Idk guys lots of thinking to do now
Gotcha, that makes sense. Give yourself time, so you don't rush into something and regret it later. Don't you also have an 8th gen you wanted to boost? Could be time to go have fun with that z3 :shrug:
yea but that z3 has 120k+ miles on the motor would hate for something to happen to it
This quite a lot of thinking, that's true. You've come so far, it's gotta be such a hardship for you
I'm expecting more updates soon Martin, keep trucking along
:shocked:
Turbo wrapped up and away it goes.... :(

Even though you have sold a few parts does not mean they can't be replaced with others I have sold manifolds, clutches , turbos , k pros and yet am still at it just replaced the old stuff with better stuff .Hopefully you will be able to put something together in the future
