i have no respect for that motor whether its the overrated SpecV or the "family sedan" version in the alty.
either way, how well balanced could a 2.5 liter crank be?
i have an "aquaintance" with a 2002 Spec V, and he recently blew his motor...being who he is, as in he claims to know 1000% more about engines than he actually does, i cant put any stock in what he tells me...
but he did blow his motor and he said he threw a rod.
the motor had around 20k on it, and he was lucky enough to have nissan replace it for free.
No nos, no ecu mods, just I/H/E
and he blew his motor reving it out.
so if its a well built engine than why would it blow up from hitting revlimit?
i revlimit my car every day for the last 70k miles since i rebuilt the motor and i dont have any problems.
