Not trying to be argumentative but just trying to get everything straight. So the discussion is how many cars with a VSR kit blew or how many Nissans or how many 370s? Even if any car had a VSR kit on it, was it the kit itself (design/install/parts) that caused an engine to blow? Just in my experience it's usually the owner not doing something right (breaking in new engine, wrong fuel/fluids, not properly taking care of any issues and just beating on the car hoping either something well break or the problem will go away). Just trying to have a civil discussion and get the truth for things to benefit myself and others. We all love our cars and want the best for them...referring to them like family members lol. If there was anything bad to say about anything, people should speak out respectfully, I guess, to inform others and to possibly improve a product.

I agree that you want to have a civilized debate but you have to understand that the motor going doesn't always have to do with maintenance. It's all in the TUNE. If you have a shotty tune, you can do your oil changes at 2.5K miles and motor will still go. Like someone said, culprit really isn't the kit, it's the shotty tune job. This is the main reason why I'm super picky with tuners. My WRX specifically goes to a tuner shop who specializes with Subies and only Subies. Why my Z isn't boosted, no shop really specializes with VQ motors. Last thing I need is a money pit like the OP. |
