the story...
I bought this car the end of April last year... about 3 months after I got it I put on a Greddy Type-RS BOV and took the car for a test drive I drove it about 4 miles. The car stalled about 200 feet from my driveway, I started it back up and it stalled again in my driveway when I got out I saw a big puddle of oil underneath where the car had been parked and a line of oil going out of the driveway... I ran it dry and started it back up again... I have no idea how I didn't spin a bearing... turns out the previous owner took the oil cooler out and hooked up the line with a single hose clamp, as if it could hold the pressure. I drove the car for 3k miles after this incident until I started blowing smoke out of my exhaust between shifts my front turbo had a bad seal and a lot of shaft play it was almost time for the 120k maint Anyways so I got that done and the engine rebuilt at performance engineering, there was damage to 1 cylinder from the oil incident but that was about it, hope you like it :D :P

Hi and welcome. What a nightmare story about the oil loss. I still can't believe you only damaged one cylinder.
It looks good and your engine bay is super tidy. What wheels are those?

I couldn't believe it either. Especially with the history these cars have for spinning bearings...



the rims are stock painted, this is an old pic I recently re-did them because they were chipping the previous owner did a bad job and I still have to do the center caps...

Not bad at all. What kind of paint did you use?
