Well looks like another car from the board went down. Driving on the highway and i see a lovely blue smoke screen. Then not long after i hear click, click, click then BOOM. Seem's like it's out til i order a new head gasket. If there is more damage i might just call it a lose and sell it or part it out <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>  I guess that sound of the exhaust rattling was really detonation lol. Thinking of buying a clunker to get around, or buy a US spec 240Z so I can take it home, or buy a new car, just undecided on what to do if my car is dead. This blows but hey what can i do, thank god i can come here and rant <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

well, I give you m condolences and hopfully its just the head gasket and nothing else.  But if wore comes to worse, then you can count us at zilvia to buy all of your parts from you.  (I definitely will be asking for some parts if you gonna part it out)

THe mechanic of my person who owned my car before me, put some kind of red seal all on the out side of where my head gasket is.  Now its coming out and its now pretty.
