Gotta love the chain guides - flog it and they break.  Don't flog it and...they break :)

 

Might have broken it from rapidly getting off the throttle, this is a theory on the issue that I've read on here recently.

I saw you post that recently, but I don't normally do that.

That is the confusing but. I also try and keep the max revs under 6k.

If I have ever been over 6k rpm, it was because I was not paying attention.

ahh well, you live and learn.

sh*t mine must be in a million pieces by now then...gets flogged and also at times rapidly off the throttle to not bash the limiter...to save oil pump gears 

It's a vicious circle in a manual with half decent power, you're always trying to save something

 

Look on the bright side though marco, pump gears>chain guides... ;)

Nah first is gearbox but I don't like blowing money on the car haha.. Might get a few mods done before Racewars if I'm looking like being home for it but probably just enough so I can get an E85 tune with the stock turbo and leave it at that.

We need to catch up at some stage, so I can test drive your car and see what this so called rev limiter bashing is all about.
