Robert from Hannys :thumbsup:

Completely Rebuilt my D16Y1 for $1200

what do you mean by completely rebuilding it luke, i'm thinking about rebuilding mine but i have no idea where to start. I did the belt and pump about 15k ago, always change all the fluids /sparks regularly, did the clutch about 8 months ago and now i have no idea what to do next.

sorry for the hijack :p

New rings & bearings and so on

That quote was for me as I've been going to him for years but he won't ever rip you off like other Mechs :thumbsup:

What motor do you have?

Well firstly im in brisbane so robert is a no go

I got a Y1 in my car at the moment, but i also got a Y8 (bought if of Nerv, sitting at my friends house) so i might do something with that

I'll look further into it man, thanx
