You might find some information here: http://www.wardsauto.com/

But, honestly, this is a really, really bad topic. You're going to find statistics to support both sides equally. I like Dakar's idea:

 

You're going to have to collect more than just a few people's experience in order to have statistically significant data. Just because some people have imports that last forever and domestics that die after a couple of years doesn't really mean anything. You're going to need a much larger sample population than what you have thus far. You probably would have been better off writing about the difference between OHC and OHV engines. There's much better information available on that topic (and not just people's opinions and experience). Sorry, but the way it is now, your paper sounds kinda :ghey: to me.

 

my 1987 prelude has 550,000km on it, but then i kept doing 8k clutch drops and blew the tranny. engine still runs though

 

do they even rev to 8 k?

 

to me it seems the bigger then engine the more shit can go wrong with it.. :dunno:

 

Doubt it... didn't those have like a 1.3 something rod ratio. Why do kids do stupid shit like that anyway?

 

tach went up to 8k, dont know what fuel cut-off came in at

 

I didn't really have a choice on topic. I did the take a topic out of the hat thing for it.

I'll make do with that I got.

Thanks for everyone who posted! :thumbup:

Or, gasoline vs. desiel.

The vette gets good gasmileage due to it's lovely skip shift feature.
