Nitin's SiR Type-S - Last update ever :(

[nitin_s1]

Just got back from PAW. Some good and some bad news about the Type-S. Bad news is that I found out some shocking history about the engine (mainly the head ) and also it may need to get it's crank seal done as it's leaking oil (gearbox off job)

Good news is, the car feels new, and no nasty sounds etc when driving about it and in it's amazing now to drive.

Just to note, I've had the following done:-

- Timing belt (all associate belts, balancer shaft, power steering, AC/alternator, balancer shaft seal)
- H22 manual tensioner conversion kit
- Water pump
- Camshaft seals
- Power steering fluid and Radiator fluid change

Rich also fixed some problems, lower timing belt cover and new radiator cap.

No it's all original Type-S shizzle, 220 bhp monster.. But someone has had the head off to do head gasket and hasn't done the job properly.
