This is your engine-



This is your engine over red line -





These were from a Type R that over revved- forgot to shift?

BTW- this is the 3rd engine for this car- can you say "Driving School" ?

 

You think they would learn

 

OMFG!!!

 

heheh could that engine be from the yellow type r that we saw on few tl-cl meets???

 

man that is some crazy $hit!!! some people just use and abuse their ride... i mean its fun, but it sucks when you have to replace an engine because of misabuse... i over rev my engine between 2nd and 3rd some times but i rarely ever hit tha rev limiter... i do have type S guages so I dont feel to bad of shifting too late... i dont know if this messes it up, i know i dont race 24-7 either...Shyne

 

You said thats the 3rd engine, who pays for all these?

 

Wayne!! u're depressing me...u're guilt-tripping me into not having any fun with my baby

 

His Mommy!!!

 

My god.......

 

what is all that silver mess? pistons and rods???

 

That silver mess is the remains of the 2 valves that broke off and fell into the cylinder at high rpm- metal mush!

 

wow!

Hey it was nice seeing you again Wayne...thanks for taking such good care of my car today...The service was excellent like always!! Now there is no more squeaks and stuff...feels and sounds like a new car again!! so happy!

 

The customer (who shall remain nameless) is not the yellow Type R.This will be the second time in less than six months that I have had to dismantle this particular car.I honestly believe that if I had kids this car would finance a good portion of a college education.Jens

 

Why the he11 do people treat their cars like this??? Damnit, take care of your cars.

i think bumping the rev limiter on our car keeps us pretty safe JENS????wayneG?? or should this be avoided at all costs...got to remeber ,that R is, well, was, prolly hitin 10K when that happened

 

uhh i hope your right b/c sometime i have forgotten that i was in ss

 

This guy did more than bump the rev limiter. You won't do that to the TL-S or CL-S at 7,000 or even 7,500. You need to be well past that.

This is from a guy that would push his V8s past redline all the time and never had a problem. Blew a tranny, driveshaft and rearend once, but never an engine.
