Pretty much, when I installed the crank pulley, the balancer piece the pulley rides on came out a little, so when I torqued it all back down (the second time), it broke a tooth off of the RHS drive chain sprocket. Wellp, timings off now, so when I tried to start it, pistons hit valves hit everything else on the "top" ends. 6 of 8 valves bent, rocker arms shifted and broke, head damaged, pistons were okay but at that point it doesn't matter, obviously. Steve at PRT (who has been fantastic and patient and busy throughout all this) talked me through what it would take to rebuild that engine, so I decided to replace it. Should be approximately the same cost in far less time. I'm not at a point where I can spend the extra on top of that to properly build the engine (read: married and back in school). Should be able to get the car back later this week. This has put an enormous damper on it but it will be nice to have it back. PSA: aftermarket pulleys are fine I guess, but y'all know what risk you run if you make a mistake. I have trouble believing anything they actually do is anywhere near worth that risk. I've been without the car for ~6 weeks and it should be somewhere north of $5k once it's all said and done. |

Anyone in DFW willing to help me install Series 10 headlights into my base FRS? I'll be getting the headlights soon and I'm not too comfortable with electrical wiring (8pin vs 6pin). Thanks!

Anyone want to buy a set of 2013 OEM wheels with almost new tires? I sold my BRZ back in October and these are just taking up space.
I'm just north of downtown Fort Worth. |
