i duno man, i dont have the rate of failure statistics handy. oil pump had 53,xxx miles on it. no reason for it to happen what so ever. just the way the ball rolls i guess… and no serious damage? any damage to the motor is serious.

You aint gotta be a hardass about it man… Simply stated, heard/seen some people who were racing lost all oil pressure dident notice right away and cooked the motor… and glad your dident get cooked

Dont know if you were racing when it happend im just saying its happend

and wtf is the poor comment about? Regardless… if something got seirously fucked i dont care how much money you have no one likes to fix something serious over something like that happening.

You dont have to be such a dick all the time… especialy considering in person you tend to be pretty friendly if I say whats up or before when we were talking about your car

your sig is HUGE bro. and the oil pressure sensor picks it up, light flashes/beeps.

and if it blew up, build it bigger/better. isnt that how it goes? it would have been a reason to go 2.0/35R
