Yet you turned down my challange **this summer to race the s2000 **with your track car. Hrm...... You ethuggin your track cars abilities? :icon_scratch:Is it going to be running by then?
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -
Well it just got a new engine and it blew a hg in 25 miles, ask me how the fuck that happens. idk So it's back in the shop and i'm waiting on it again.

That old motor went to hell and didnt make it back in one piece. Hope it all works out. BTW matt.......did you ever show the carnage from the engine???

corwin honda on leak down tests: "fuck em, we don't need em. Its much faster to just not do them."his warranty does not pay for diagnostics items on a new motor that was supposed to be good. Why would someone assume that it had a bad headgasket? Shit happens with used motors, you cant expect everything to be wrong and pre diagnose something without concerns.
the corwin service warranty is covering the repair from the motor now so it really doesnt matter. its being taken care of the way it should be.

what about my $200 in diagnosing a fuse? it took a tech 2 hrs to find a fuse was missing? seriously not impressed at this point.

Corwin Honda on Leak down tests: "fuck em, we don't need em. Its much faster to just not do them."
Do any of you tuner wannabees even know how to do a leak down test. Obviously not since a leak down test is to check for sealing valves and rings. So stop acting like you know what your talking about, and lay off. If it wasnt for corwins matt would be with out a motor hes lucky hes getting what he got. Im sure the warranty company wouldnt mind hearing how the motor was taking out of the car for a year before they submitted a claim. -

Perhaps you are the one who should stop acting like you know what you are talking about and lay off.

Gasket problemsOccasionally, the compression in the cylinder will cause a leak to form in the gasket and the gasket will have to be replaced, or severe damage can take place (a "blown" head gasket). This problem has been exacerbated by the use of aluminum rather than iron cylinder heads; while lighter than iron, aluminum has a much greater thermal expansion rate, which in turn causes a great deal more stress to be placed on the head gasket. Engine makers have responded to this by adding a non-stick coating such as Teflon to the surface of the head gasket.
If the gasket fails, a variety of problems can occur, from compression loss (leading to power reduction, or a rough engine), to exhaust gases being forced into the cooling system, leading to the engine overheating and increased engine wear due to the motor oil being mixed with antifreeze. Coolant can leak into the cylinders, causing the exhaust to issue steam[3] and the catalytic converter to be damaged. If a very large amount of coolant does this, hydrolock can occur, causing extensive engine damage. Sometimes, all that may happen when a head gasket is blown is excessive steam erupting from the tailpipe; yet the engine may act and drive like normal, until all the coolant is gone and the engine overheats.
A damaged head gasket can cause compression to leak between cylinders.Head gasket condition can be investigated by checking the compression pressure with a pressure gauge, or better, a leak-down test, and/or noting any indication of combustion gasses in the cooling system on a water-cooled engine. Oil mixed with coolant and excessive coolant loss with no apparent cause, or presence of carbon monoxide or hydrocarbon gases in the expansion tank of the cooling system can also be signs of head gasket problems.
Driving with a blown head gasket (if possible) can cause additional extensive damage due to overheating or loss of lubrication.
Blue exhaust smoke may be indicative of oil burning. White exhaust smoke is an indicator of coolant burning, another sign of head gasket wear.
