That’s how much it cost you to get there?
I've put in about 15k with parts and occasional repairs. I see people paying 28 for a mostly stock used and I'm like ?

I was at my dealership this week they had a 2019 CBP coupe Si for 27k or do, I asked because I was just curious. It’s ridiculous.

It is. I figured if I listed mine for 30, it would be gone in a hot second.
We'll see. I just got it where I want it, I should probably enjoy it for some time first haha.

Big oof yesterday ? stay tuned for the rebuild ?
My current guess is the head lifted and the headgasket said naa man. Coolant system over pressurized and I blew a line off. Oil is still all in there but my oil light did come on, it's possible the OEM oil gears could of failed and that's what led to the rest. I won't know more till I can start getting into her.

@kshawn let me know if you end up needing oil pump gears. I don't think mine ever sold, still sitting in the shop.

Will do! I'll be yanking the whole motor out. It could probably use a overhaul anyway. Regardless if I got lucky and only fried the gasket

Sad to hear that man. But your build will sure help others. I hope you get it sorted soon and beat some 10th gen records :)
