Blew My motor at the convention

Joes97turboSE-R · 05-08-2006, 09:27 AM

On Sat before we left to head to the track I decided to take my car for alittle ride pulled out of the suites and BOOM!!!!!!!! Completely blew my motor up. Its interesting the parts you find lying on the ground from your motor

Atleast I can say I went out with a bang

I just wanted to Thank Jamie from Powertech for towing my car to the picnic and then towing it back to CT. He made my life alot easier and I will definetly be buying some new parts from him. I got a few pics I will post later, but Im sure people will be plastering the ones they took all over the place

I was not present but heard that a little showboating was involved along with a bounce or two off the rev limiter in first.

I just walked out of the hotel when I heard you rip it. For that little bit it sounded amazing.

I got some pretty good pictures of what was left of the piston/rod. I'll post them when I get home.

Your car looks amazing in person.

You may have blown the motor, but that sh*t still looks good.......can't say the same for the inside though...........

NaLLa8705 · 05-08-2006, 03:27 PM

Yeah.. i was standing right there when it happened.... That is a sound you NEVER want to hear.

There was a trail of oil/coolant for over a hundred feet, and big ass pile where you came to a stop. Cant wait till you get it back on the road. Still my fav b14
