ok so i now know its an a8 engine and thought i would pull the head off and check it out as it blew a fair bit of black smoke...thought the rings where gone but by the looks there ok
the pistons have a thick layer of shit on them and so does the plugs and valves....well the only thing i can think of why it was blowing black smoke is shit fuel and bad ignition as the plugs are pretty dirty....If anyone has any other reason why it would blow black smoke please fell free to lend me some help
Well i took some pics and here they are....

Well i was talking to a mate last night down the street and he knows the person who used to own it
he told me it was used as a drag car and ran 10's
when does it blow smoke? all the time or when boosting/after boosting. Mine blows blue smoke after hard boosting. turbo needs needs new oil seal

:O wat, NOOOOOO. i would have grabbed a rear door off ulol.

Oh bugga, yup its gone sorry i knew i should of kept the gaurds and doors DOH!
and sorry tail light has been sold.
BLAHH!! i need tail light
you fail mr. Nackerz, lol![]()
Just a quick one, how long did it take you to take the tail lights and garnish off? Im buying calias ones this week and going to swap them, theres only like a few bolts that hold it all down? Well more then a few but yeah
not long at all mate 10 mins max to swap them over
oh sorry BXHD my bad if i had of known i would of kept em!
i think you should have put the black topped calais doors on the walky to go with the pop ups.
This is good site to watch.I found it informative as I have been researching a lot lately on such matters such as you talk about.
so what was actually damaged when it was crashed?
