My friend is about to buy a 2g GSX for 5k, the car is well worth 5k because of the mods done to it but it has some rod knock. Other than the rod knock the car seems to be in great shape, Good compression no shaft play etc. My question is, what would be the best way to fix the rod knock? My original plan was to get new pistons,rods,rod bearings and head gasket and just give the cylinders a good hone but with both of us working full time jobs we don't have the time to do this right away. So now were looking for a quicker way. Anyone have any ideas. I have rebuilt a 4g63 before but i was not pressed for time. My friend doesnt have a car now so were trying to do this as fast as possible. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.
