I just watched a blue Honda Accord blow there engine trying to race a del sol! I will try to dig up more details! LOL!
ah hah! that's funny man...sucks for whoever it was, but i'm assuming it was a ricer anyway...we have a lot of that up here
looked stock actually...prolly just baught it and thought, oooh! over 200 hp? I can beat anybody! YAY! *BADA-BOOM*
should sell the motor...or hell buy you a cheap EF shell or something and drop it in there...dont wanna waste a good motor....atleast you could have a backup car this way...
yeah i was thinking of blowing up my d16z6, but my buddy just blew the motor in his crx and im selling him the motor!! btw how much should i sell the motor for?? 100,000 miles, mated to an automatic tranny, and driven by a woman for 96,000 miles.
No, no and no! Why do you all want to blow up your motors? If I blew up my motor, I would be S.O.L. and be using Pat and Charlie to get to work (those are my feet, BTW)
you won't, i ever tell you the story of when me and Anthony tried to blow up a D15Y1 [i belive?] out of a 91 Honda Civic Hatch while we were both working at Hyper Motorsports? i'll try to keep this short and kinda on topic [not really but what the hey it's a good story] okay a dude comes in and wants to swap in a b-series of some kinda, so me and Anthony decide, "hey lets blow up the stock engine!" so we drive around the shop area in first gear redlined at ECM limit which i belive was 7500-8000rpm or so for an hour. nothing drain coolent; repeat driving around in 1st redlined for an hour... nothing temp gadge didn't even go up drained OIL; another hour of redlined, again nothing... replaced oil with beer... [yeah idk eaither but it seemed like a good idea at the time] again another hour or so... nothing so by thie time we're like wtf... redlined in neutral and spray water in the intake mani. from a hose to hydrolock the motor and HOPEFULLY break something... nothing, drain water repeat, nothing... we just said f**k it and bashed the valve-cover in with a 20lb sledge hammer. that killed it so yeah mike there is no way that we are going to "blowup" your d-series, well unless you have a 20lb sledge hammer
I have confidance that if I take my car to be worked on, people might be doing this with my car? lol, I liked that story!
well he was swapping engines... and we had like 10 d-series laying around, we did not need another one. thus blow it up
