so for those who dont know my motor took a crap on me.

I guess it didnt like 38 psi from my GT35R....


anyways I just took my motor apart today and found my #4 rod bearing was spun. Luckily as soon and it spun It I turned the car off and didnt get that much damage.

Ill update this thread with my progress.
