                Soooo, I believe i broke a rocker and killed the head gasket. updates soon, need to pull valve cover off and check but engines too hot still.

                car still drove me home just very loud clacking and sounds like my subaru which leads me to believe its the rocker arm.

                  How ironic...Just last night I referenced your car in another thread to show how much a stock m20 can take.
                  The first car I ever rode in was an e30

                      Hey well at least it was a well known weak point that gave out considering it's all stock. I'd probably laugh it off if I was in your position pushing it to it's limits.

                      Hopefully it's just that :p

                        Well I'm sure we all kinda new it would eventually happen. But she held up for a long time... Good thing it's an easy fix.

                            I was going to do that with my tax return but instead having Wang build me a killer diff.
