I was racing a Z24 Cavy with a 50 shot and when I went to go from 3rd to 2nd insted of 4th gear. I was a good 2 car lengths ahead at the time though. The only reason I win races against most guys is because of my launches and fast shifts. But when I missed the shift, the motor went haywire. The rev limiter did not kick in at all. I have no idea how high it rev'd, but it was past the 8k mark. But now, the flywheel is litterally in pieces. Which is really a rare thing to happen. The clutch is obviously gone too. And I may have bent the crank. So, I might be in the market for a 3sgte, 3sge, 1mzfe, 3mzfe, or 4age. We'll see what happens. I hate to waste this opertunity and put another 5sfe in there. It all just depends on what I can find and for what price. I'm really upset to see my baby down though.

QUOTE(Bitter @ Sep 19, 2006 - 2:36 AM) [snapback]481306[/snapback] the 4 banger metro can hit 130whp pretty easily, coupled with its almost nothing weight, it'll scoot suprisingly fast. Yeah, but that's the g13b. And even with that hp, those things have a hard time getting as fast as 14's in the quarter. I can't really figure it out. I just have the G10 sohc motor. That's the 3 banger. They make a nice turbo kit for it, but I'm just not sure about tweeking with it. It would be a nice car for tite courses, but it would never have the top end or interstate speed that I feel I need now. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy
