I suppose. Rod knock is very distinctive over a spun bearing, not to mention more violent. I could still drive the integra with a spun bearing (at least to the shop). Try driving one with a broken rod lol

Rod ditn break still runs.

I didnt say it did break , I just said they are Known for the weak ass rods... Either way that car should have broke 1 year ago...That thing has lasted threw some hard times lol.....

J get rid of it and buy yourself another bike so we can ride homie!

I have done both...it will skip an run like a misfire....

Either way it sucks, I hate when you put your hard earned money into cars/trucks/bikes and something like this happens.

"But you have to pay if you wanna play"


Rebuild or new motor for the Z needed!!!:lmfao:

Look up the 1975 Magnuson-Moss Act...SEMA wouldn't exist if a warranty was voided because of aftermarket products/mods.

I wouldn't recommend taking it in with, say for example, a 200 shot of nitrous on it though, lol. :doh:

Hes right, when most dealerships cover warrenty work, they actually have a rep for the company come out and look at the vechicle to determine if its a able to be claimed under warrenty. If they see tons of rubber stuck up in your rear fender wells, they will know the motor has been abused and then look for more signs of abuse. Then may or may not cover it. :(

cars should have moved to one side instead of them just standing in the middle. and no one lives on rev limiter when they drift.
