Funny ive got two friends with fully forged ca18's that have done 20-25k on them currently without issue
So you destroyed 3 forged engines in 200 miles and your trying to give advice on them, i understand your very knowledgeable and have been here there any everywhere but can you not see the irony there
Also you say upping the power will put strain on etc etc etc, well isnt that the point?
When you build a fully forged high HP engine you as a rule upgrade everything to cope with it. Valve trains, bearings, pistons, rods, gaskets etc etc, of course you going to have issue with a 500bhp VQ if all you do is put forged bottom end and nothing else in it
and im curious why cant an engine builder work to OE tolerances? because if i my research tells me right the VR from the GTR is hand assembled so how can they be anymore closer than a engine builder from i dunno liverpool who has the same tools, that im sorry just sound bollocks.
