    Default so i just blew up my vs wagon

    earlier in the day, the fuel pump played up and car wouldnt start until i bashed the fuel pump and fuel tank a few times.
    then later doin 190km/h in 4th at 5000rpm then it missed twice, then lost alot of power, now it makes the tell tale putt putt sound like a volkswagon.
    about to pull apart motor and see what the problem is. what do ya'll reckon? sucked in a valve or gasket, pushrod, head gasket(no water in oil so far), its not getting hot but only a short drive after it s**t itself.
    what should i do just throw in another motor, i can get one with 180k for $350, but its auto will it go on with my 5 sp getrag and duel mass flywheel?
    inb4 shouldnt be driving so fast hahaha

    The problem is the driver.

    190KMH ( thank gods all that went wrong was the eng choked the chicken and not you) $350 for a 2nd hander is pretty good price wise

    190km/h on public roads?

    Seriously slow the **** down, your just gonna get yourself and/or others killed.

    But to answer your question yes the motor will work, you will need to swap the fly wheels over.

    guess none of u grandpas read this part.....
    appreciate ur concern and in fact ive given the same advice to some 18 y/o on here. but im 29 and have been a professional driver for 8 years, 10-14 hrs 5 days a week, u mere mortals would have to drive to ur about 150 years old to appreciate the kind of experience i have.
    it was on a beautiful piece of freeway, straight, concrete barriers(so no animals and no chance of having a head on) late at night and i did not pass any other car, and was just seeing what it could do then slow down its not like i set the cruise for any length of time.
    and above all, i like to take risks like that, its one of the only things on this miserable planet that makes me feel alive and well if a tyre blew and i stacked and died, big deal, c**ts are getting slaughtered overseas like chickens everyday.
    we will agree to disagree,because its pointless, i do what i want, and yous enjoy ur white picket fence, stable job and labrador bahahaha
    anyway for anyone that isnt a grandma and sits down to piss, just picked up a vt v6 with 160k for $300 now the fun part, putting it in

    , Im 21 and having driving for years. Yes ive speed and down stupid shit, i also have a 400 rwhp rx-7, i know what my cars will do and how they react, does that mean i should drive like that, Whether it be late at night what, what would you do if a car was up the road and something happened and you hit them because you couldn't stop. And b4 you say im only 21 i dont know what im on about, i slide and drag my rx-7 it also see's track days, i also race a speed way car from time to time.
