I got everything off except the corner nut that tightens the valve cover. It just keeps spinning and wont tighten or loosen. I tried using a flathead to pop it off but it cant get under it, theres not enough space. What next?
I see theres 3 bolts holding it in, but i cant get to it because of the coolant hose. I unscrewed the hose and the coolant started pouring out from the radiator. Is this ok as long as I fill it back up at the end? Also, how long do i have to wait for the engine to cool off before taking off...
Do they? Also, i dont see how a valve will hit a piston if the top of the piston dome sits beneath the top of the block. Im planning to mill my b16 head about .030 which puts me at a -.001 according to c-speed.
I think my headgasket is leaking so while the head is off i was thinking of taking it to portflow for a p&p, valve job, etc.

my tranny is makin all kinds of noises and im just gonna replace it and throw an lsd in there instead of a rebuild. I plan on staying cable cause i heard its a pita to convert to hydro. Im deciding on another j1 or ys1(gsr) with lsd installed. I...
OK i think i posted before how my car stutters and hesitates, especially at lower rpms, but it also does it on the freeway. WHen it is happening, there is a pretty noticable power loss. ONe day the car will run smooth....couple of hours later it starts again.
Today, i came to the conclusion...
I just had an alignment so its not that. What else could it be? I have some stiff az motor mounts, can that cause it? It only happens when i start going past 40mph . I dont really notice once im crusiing at freeway speeds. Any idea? messed up steering column?
current setup:
jdm b16a
1 layer oem gasket
11:1 comp
Im gonna do a port and polish and while i have the head off I want to raise compression a little more. But im gonna go back to the stock 3 layer gasket which will put me at 10.4 stock compression.
My question is how much do I need to...
Man one problem after another
I had a new clutch/flywheel installed a couple of weeks ago. Ever since, when im driving and i slowly let go of the gas, a slight buzzing sound comes from the engine bay. It gets louder, the faster i go. While im driving on the freeway in 5th gear and i start...
Im gonna change my oil tomorrow so i picked up a k&n filter. It was $11. Just curious as to what everyone else uses and if they make any difference. What about HAMP filters? jhpusa has a pretty good deal, $60 for a box of 10.
im running na b16 and will probly get up to 200whp max...what are the benfits/disadvantages of getting the hp one over the reg 255lph and 190lph? Since theres only a $10 difference between the pumps, i was gonna go with one of the 255's. My question is can the pump be "too much" for the car?
cant really tell anything besides having to hold the clutch a tad longer. Im breaking in a new clutch which i also installed(exedy stage1). Pedal pressure feels the same.
Why do people say the fidanza is hard to drive with? I drove through heavy traffic the other day and its no big deal.
I know theyre stronger so u can rev higher, but are there any other benefits such as it being lighter? Im debating whether to throw them in, im on stock retainers now shifting at 8K.
