Exactly. That's why the rev limiter is there- to prevent damage. Do you think Nissan would sell and warranty a car that was able to be damaged by frequent trips to the redline?

If hitting the rev limiter caused people to blow motors, where are all of the "Guys I popped my motor" threads?

I wasn't about to touch the car=woman analogy because there's a whole lot of stupid there I don't even want to deal with.
