Rep Power: 0 could it possibly be from revving (which i suppose you problly put it in neutrel to do so) then flooring it while "racing" on the freeway[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG], which means you problly threw it into drive really quickly??? i blew a tranny once doing stupid stuff in my zx2 cause it was a p.o.s., but i never managed to f**k up a rod and it was a ford engine, one of the worst they ever made!

Rep Power: 0 another thing is that really was weird im almost scared to floor the f**kin car now lol isnt it ok to floor it though if i leave it in drive?? or i just get stick but is there a risk at blowing the motor with stick also or is that basically if youre doing something like an n2o application or something like that?

Just don't do them.. ever.. If you're racing on the highway, just drop down into a lower gear, never neutral. If you're racing from a stop, than just power brake (Holding down brake and gas at the same time, than dropping brake). This a LOT better for your car. I'd much rather risk damaging my brakes than blowing a tranny..

Rep Power: 0 First off, your tranny will never have anything to do with your oil. You could neutral drop all day and all you could hurt is your tranny. The reason you blew a connecting rod is because you didnt have any oil and you got your engine extremely warm(revving+racing).Maybe you need to take it to honda to have them find your source of oil leak or burn.This will happen again if you dont.

Rep Power: 0 even if the b series could fit our car it would be illegal. in the us it is illegal to put an engine in your car that is older than your car even if it is in better condition. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]
