Yeah, knew it wouldnt last long, onwards and upwards n all that.
Take this as a note, all who are planning a GT20 series turbo upgrade, you WILL lift the head without decent head studs, even as de tuned as mine is to stop epic clutch ra*e it has still happened. Alright so I have been driving it hard for short journeys but it was still inevitable.
I knew it the first time I took it up the road.
