stripped this down as the head gasket was gone.
decided to play it safe and bring down the compression ration so i fitted a genuine headgasket costing a few pound under 50euro.
got the head pressure tested and skimmed
also i took off the fensport oversized pulley and fitted a standard 1.started off running 1.2 bar and now its down to .6 bar
fitted a new timing belt and waterpump ,also fresh gear oil,diff oil,and engine oil and genuine filter for good measure
also got a alloy rad and slimline fan from hm turbo to keep the temperatures down under the bonnet

Hope that AE86 track day happens. Would love to see polaroids of it all. Nice Levin hatch. Any numbers on the engine by chance?

I personally dig the wats over the SSRs. They're both nice sets of wheels though
