So I just done done with my motor swap in my XE-R. And about driving the car for approximately 2 months, I blew a rod. Unfortunately, this is the outcome right now of how the motor is running.
Merging on the highway, shifted at 6k, then went through the gears. Chilled at 3500 for a minute. Heard some noise. Pulled over and sure enough, tuck tuck tuck. Oh well. I drove it about 5 miles after that seeing if I could get her home, but that obviously didn't happen and I wasn't lookin forward to getting a new hood if I shot a piston through it or shot something out my grill. I got it home on Friday and I shall have her runnin again on Sunday. Hopefully. Wish me luck guys.
I got a buddy with a motor for $150 with lower miles.
^^^^OFF TOPIC: Is your buddy motor JDM or USDM? Got pics?

ON TOPIC: I hope you get it up and running soon man. I remember when my car sound like that, except it was a little more than tap dancing........
^I was just wondering.......I will be doing a XE-R swap as well, when I finish helping my buddy build his IS300......I have a B13 though, I noticed that you have a 98 sentra.
That sound bad...How did it happen?
