Broke whille racing again, clutch flywheel and crank Options

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

I was racing a Z24 Cavy with a 50 shot and when I went to go from 3rd to 2nd insted of 4th gear. I was a good 2 car lengths ahead at the time though. The only reason I win races against most guys is because of my launches and fast shifts. But when I missed the shift, the motor went haywire. The rev limiter did not kick in at all. I have no idea how high it rev'd, but it was past the 8k mark. But now, the flywheel is litterally in pieces. Which is really a rare thing to happen. The clutch is obviously gone too. And I may have bent the crank. So, I might be in the market for a 3sgte, 3sge, 1mzfe, 3mzfe, or 4age. We'll see what happens. I hate to waste this opertunity and put another 5sfe in there. It all just depends on what I can find and for what price. I'm really upset to see my baby down though.

I'm thinking about a 3sge 3rd gen. Or a 1mzfe motor. I like the NA power. My dad and I were talking about putting a turbo on my 5s, so if I get the 1mzfe, we'll just continue that. I'd like to have that monster motor in my car. That would be the first forced induction V6 6gen. Oh, btw, the 5sfe is a great motor. Too run up to 8k+ and not destroy more than it did, and on 155k miles, that is a good motor. I think it has some real potential for boosting. Anything that strong can hold some real psi. I'm just thinking out loud now, I don't knwo what going to happen with all this. We'll see. I'll dissapoint everyone as soon as possible with the news that the 5sfe has to be rebuilt. lol, I'll be driving a 91 Geo Metro fxi till it's back on the road. So no more drag racing for me.

EDIT: With the turbo 1mzfe, I would most likely be the fastest fwd in town. I think I could handle that. I would have to limit myself to role races only though. But that's all these guys like to do anyway.
