I'd rather not, but I'm afraid the noise is much worse than I had originally thought. So it's either 1/2 the price for an install of a stock motor and part the car out.... or spend twice as much for a built motor installed and continue on my FI journey. I was at this crossroad a few months back and I went forth. Why turn back now?

yeah, it's a tough decision. if you like the car, it's an easy one.

do a proper build the first time...don't half *** it.

Anything special, lower compression, e85, stroker kit?

Sorry to hear about your motor. Do you know more specifically what went wrong? Also, is this the first FI motor casualty?

Ron · 10-19-2011, 10:40 AM

I think Ryan has a bent rod(s). No, Gambit blew his on a G (well his tuner did), Forged blew another on a G quite a while back and there's another here in Houston built by Baker Tuning that blew because the owner got too excited with the boost controller lol (from what I hear).

GambitX · 10-19-2011, 11:03 AM

Yup, its unfortunate but some of us had to learn the hard way with FI. Mazworxs blew my car the day I was going to pick it up. Decided to not rebuild but to just buy a brand new lower block from nissan direct. So far after taking the car to Z1 to retune the car drives 1000 percent with no issues.

I will be watching and talking to Ryan about what he is going to do on his build and maybe we can do it at the same time since I still have the blown block in my garage.
