Timing Belt Snapped

[grumpy rooster]

good to know although i clutched in straight away.. i was WOT'ing it before i realised the engine stopped.. no issue?

The engine would have stopped before you did that most probably. As soon as it snapped the shows all over, regardless of what you did.

took it around to Joe's an hour ago... i was on low lift plus he notched my pistons so i'm hoping therewas no interference as you said... hopefully can troubleshoot the cause though as i don't need this happening again halfway to qld for work trip lol. i'm going to guess Joe will be sourcing the oem belt off you?

Not me. I don't get into that stuff. I don't know who he uses.

i'm still paying off my wisdom teeth which prevented me from getting the neptune off you... sux $3500 bill with $1400 to go one day when all is sorted i guess sorry about the hassle btw...

Don't worry about it. These things happen. Nothing you can do about it.

I had pretty much the same plans as Milads except I ordered JWT C2s and cancelled them that week my NX was written off (and sold off all the parts on my floor (clutch, par flywheel, imported vlsd box + hydro setup).... i didn't realise however that compression was that big a key on the SR... theres a few people now with 110-120wkw+ and still don't pull the same times as him... plus Milad has consistent times by the looks of it... good driver i too had close to 11:1CR though on stock cams pulling 98wkw.. was a VERY strong motor

This is getting off topic a bit but his car is just a well matched set of parts. Most people try to go too big with the cams or don't go for enough compression. The lightweight flywheel helps a lot as well. Practise and a good combo is the key on any car. Now he just needs some gears to make it go consistently into the 13's.
