Message	I've been tearing down my engine and lo and behold I was right...but sometimes I hate being right. :( The knocking I was hearing was a bad bearing on the (I believe) #6 cylinder. It's completely wasted. Check out the pics below... Here's the cap And the crank :( I think this is as bad as they come, but do you think it's possible to have the crank fixed? How much would you say that runs if it's possible? If not...how much is a new crank? The pictures aren't great because I'm still getting used to my new digital camera (Canon S40) which I LOVE. Anyway, I wanted to share. Hopefully I'll be ordering my parts within the next couple days, bring the block/heads/turbos out to be cleaned (and rebuilt) and have my TT back together as soon as I can. -- Adam Check out my Z on Cardomain.com.
