    Default R32 GTST (Head Gasket Needs doing)

    Well guys was planning on fixing the head gasket but have just lost all interest in the car while I haven't been driving it so going to try swap it for something like Altezza or Is200 Sport, golf, audi, bmw, etc.

    Story is Headgasket needs doing, Car is still driving fine and holding water, temperatures remain normal all the time and it did not boil over.

    This Car was always well minded and looked after, small water hose split from wear and thats how gasket got damaged.

    Got a few prices to get it fixed lately and they came up around 600e.

    Other than the mentioned the car is spot on.
