Headgasket change
My 2003 wrx wagon is showing signs of head gasket failure , I'm going to pull the engine and do the gaskets next week , but is it wise to change the main and big end bearings at the same time, car is on 97,000 miles?
Thanks |
Definately as engine is gonna be out, so may as well do it at same time.
|
Indeed......when was oil pump,timing belt and wather pump changed?
Also check clutch when engine is out:) |
Will do timing belt and water pump as well , maybe clutch, oil pump should be ok shouldn't it? Thinking now maybe I should put some fordge pistons and rods in at the same time lol
|
may aswell do the whole hog mate............why not drop a 2.5 crank in it and build a 2.1 stroker for extra torque???
|
Depends on wishes and depth of you wallet........i would sell wrx and go for STI as it is much better platform:)
|
Already got a wide track sti lol , I think will just do main and big end bearings and gaskets + belts and water pump, and clutch while engines out, should give it another few years life out of the engine
Thanks |
Exactly dont bother moding wrx just do decent refresh:)
|
just done this. it IS a lot more work to do the bearings. when I looked at mine the gold was just showing through on two of them. https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...-question.html
