At 100,000 miles my 7 bolt motor had gotten crank walk and I threw the rod in the motor. Actually the bearing on the rod broke in 3 different spots. It always had a bad oil leak. I then got a jspec 6 bolt motor put in with a bigger 16g turbo put in it. Then my crank pulley had went so I just recently got that put in. Then my slave cylinder and master cylinder went so I put them in. The my throw out bearing went and I tried to make it home, but it fried the clutch totally. that is about all.
This car is a fun and very quick car when running good. I have had plenty of good times in it. There easy to the eye and fun to drive. You can turn the boost up for a cheap price and get extreme power with the right injectors.
Wouldn't a mechanic with talons have trouble holding onto a wrench?
