Ticking? Rod knock does not sound like ticking. Could it be you need a valve adjustment? Between the ticking if the injectors firing and the loud valve train our cars sound ugly when idling.

To me, my engine has been running the same way the day I bought it. You remember the ticking sound you mentioned to me before? It bothers me and am suspecting a rod knock. Couldn't tell yet because I haven't run a compression/leakdown test.
So, I am getting more information on how much it would cost to get a short block and swap it, or rebuild the engine? Thanks for your concern !
If cost is too much, I'll just sell the car -.- But hey, at least someone here will be able to get the 5x100 gold BBS from me. haha

Check out nasoic too. sometimes guys will sell their built blocks for a good deal and then you just have to pay for the install. if you do decide to rebuild i would definitely change to forged internals just incase you decide you want more power down the line.
