This is why at a certain level scatter shields are required. It happens fairly often, I saw it happen to a Turbo Sentra SE-R back in the day, the guy wasn't hurt luckily but it destroyed the car.

With everything he threw at it, it was bound to happen. He put 9krpmrx8 type money into it.

I never knew that polishing parts presented a danger that needed kevlar shields to mitigate?

Polishing can be dangerous business, you can get sore muscles and all kinds of other injuries.

I said money, not 9krpmrx8 type mods. I think it was on his 980whp meth injected novicharged c5. It might have been on the nitrous build c5 though. I wasn't there.

There was a guy with a black C5Z with Novi2000 in Toronto that had the same happen.

Went to the QuickTime SFI bell housing after that lol, but their $$$. Guess so is medical bills for an american though when your feet get fucked up.

Joker is safe with free health care, maybe that's the mind set with stacking flywheels?

Damn dude, that is scary! Now, can you imagine two flywheels busting out? Oh wait, I don't think it will be able to rev past like 2k. So, I think he's safe after all.

It must be! Well, not technically free health care... I've seen the kind of taxes you guys have been paying around here. Sorry, I shouldn't go there.

^Oh snap!!! LOL! and yeah feel free, I go there all the time. With the taxes we pay, sometimes it might just be better to have pay-for health insurance.

I mean as it stands we basically have forced pay-for Healthcare.

yupp Canada has some of the highest taxes in the world thanks to the liberal party they get voted in by all the well fair dwellers and then take the conservative and working classes money in form of raised taxes to support their voters smh.

the auto fly wheel accommodates the 1jzgte starter the manual flywheel spacer moves the manual flywheel closer onto the spline shaft so it's the only way to make them work together

So your planning on rebuilding your tranny before you ever get the car running. Its probably not worth spending the money. Put it toward the swap.
