buying a stock block and taking a breather from mods for awhile.

 

I forgot to edit it....it was 380rwhp @ 5200 Rpms & 364 torque.

 

yes you are correct which is why im selling and going back to stock....wish I had a MT.

 

redlined maybe once or twice...I drove in Manual mode majority of the time since I had the GTM VB upgrade.....Thats where my tuner decided he wanted to stop...It I had more boost im not to sure I want to go anymore if this happend..

 

Sorry to hear it man. I know how it feels for I blew my motor too last yr in my vortech AT g35. I was pushing over 400hp tho and had redline mine when it blew. How much timing did they add to your tune bc there must have been a reason why u're tune was only up to 5500 and not to redline. U're best bet is to do a tear down and see how the pistons looks (detonations, etc) to determine if it was a weak rod or a tunning issue. Hopefully your heads are okay so u don't have to buy a longblock. GL

 

wow dude.. sorry to see that. hopefully you'll be back up and running soon.

btw: was the tune conservative? i'm wondering about your timing also. what was your fuel setup like? oil level full too?

 

sorry to hear this happen bro. but at least you had 14k miles of good fun

 

sorry to hear that, just makes me wonder what the inside of my engine looks like at this point. good luck on whatever steps you take.

 

WTF!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn that sucks to hear bro, update us on exactly what happened. Also, you think any of this has to do with the Procharger, no right?

 

You have to look at the bigger picture: forced induction itself is always a risk, whether its SC, ST, or TT.

.

 

yeah i know, but if its because of the procharger then im 1 step closer to having to go tt =) I always had 2nd thoughts on the procharger thats why....

 

alot of motors have blown running the ATI, do a search on my350z. I think Greddy TT and ATI may be top contenders...

 

damn dude that sucks with so little miles..... I have a short block off an 03 if you need...

 

wait...if you had that aggressive of a tune @ 5200rpms, then was it tuned to redline? And the question is...if it wasn't tuned to redline then how many times did you take it there?

 

Sounds like your rod went through the oil pan. I have had this happen with a 97 GS-R. I was running a Turbonetics Kit and the same thing happened....driving home from hanging out with some friends....loud clank followed by a pop and an oil trail about a 1000 feet long....and clouds of smoke. Sorry to hear man. This just makes me change my mind more and more about boosting the G.
