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.

hey, its possible, look at what the 7age can do. its the same concept, just different engine its not for the faint of heart of light of wallet tho.

Not quite... feel free to do a search. I've covered it in some detail a LOT of times...

Kwanza is right. The 5sfe or 5sge will never be high reving great NA motors. I like mine for it's torque. It's good for autocrossing. You wouldn't expect to see a TDI Jetta on the drag strip or cranking high revs, but they do nice we're they are. I know the 5sfe is limited. I have no delusions about awsome NA power. It's just a toy. A fun little car to play with, but it won't be a serious racer because of the bottem end, and top. I think the limits of it as a turbo motor have not come close to being maxed yet. But in NA form, it's fun, but it's not your typical high rev NA motor. It is what I'm use to now, and it works great for what I want to use it as.
