i have a 98 coupe with a 2000 type r engine, was racing last night and went from 3 to 4 and instead went into 2 gear, drives alright but has a horrible idle, did a comp. test and had 170 in 1-3 and 205 in 4 with 20% leakdown in 1-3 and 10% in 4 my question is may be just some bent valves and need too replace the valve seals... any other suggestions

 

could be bent valves, or your timing belt could have jumped a couple of teeth

 

i already checked the timming belt so i am guess it is the valves

 

most likely the valve kisse dthe piston but sounds like you didnt really hurt to much you may just have to recon the head (valve job, grind the valves maybe replace valves,replace valve stem seals, and resurface deck).

agree

 

yea this same thing happened to my friends ITR at the track ...barely made it home before it crapped out on him ...

 

thanks for the input, but the car runs fine just has a jacked up idle, thinks its time for a built up

 

would that also explain the low comp in each cyl...
