Leakdown test results!!!!
Ok yesterday i did leakdown test on my 94 gs-r with 106,000 mi, and my co-worker's 97 DX with 20,000. The DX on a cold motor showed 2% on 3 cyls and 3% on #3 cyl. Pretty damn good. I was just hoping to get around 10% or so with the gs-r. I saw 3% on 3 cylinders and 4% on number three. I was amazed. My motor does not use oil or anything, but 3-4% on a 100,000 mile motor is pretty damn good. This week I will see how the compression looks. The motor seems good to go for turbo.

Just go out and buy a leakdown tester. They come with instructions. Be sure you buy a decent one. Got mine from the snap on guy. Yeah its overpirced but I can be sure it is accurate and is warrantied. The test is fairly simple but two people will make it a lot easier.
