As much as I would enjoy continuing to stir this pot I'll add a touch of context to my comment.
 

Pent up temp gun aggression is real tho

I'm sure the shop did this but make you look over all of the valve retainers super good. From everything I have read s50's built prior to 10/95 have retainer problems. The only reason I know this is because when I blew my motor up there were a couple ready to give out and let the valve drop.

Assuming you replaced with 96+ retainers?

Good motto to live by.

No updates in a month, nice. I haven't done anything to it yet. Retainers showed up. Still haven't ordered anything else, nice

Ordered parts, leave me alone

[GunMetalGrey]

Get those parts installed. 
Hurry up already!

[KaiserRolls]

Ordered the following

Cutring headgasket

Beisan anti rattle dealio

VC gasket

Vanos gasket

Axle lock plate

Gasket for heater core port on back of head

That should be everything needed to get the head back on and such. And to put in a replacement axle

[KaiserRolls]

Also the new retainers are installed

[KaiserRolls]

Ordered a stone for the block, time for some "resurfacing"

Was going to tackle that this weekend, but Brooke and I are going to USAIR for an autocross event. The track at shawano is insanely cool (lots of elevation changes and overall a tighter track)

I'll be co-driving her Miata. I'll be sure to fire up the Gopro's and post some hairdresser nonsense up
