I know that feeling I didn’t have my car for six months + getting a new engine, the day you can drive her again you’ll be the happiest man in the world

Glad you’re keeping with it! You’re Genesis will come back better and stronger after the build! If you love to drive the car hard, I would recommend going to a quality 5w40 oil instead. I run Motul 5w40 and track my car often and the engine is in great shape. Usually changing oil probably every 2000-2500 miles roughly because of that. It’s currently getting built now however to prepare for future plans.
Thank you for the advice I support your Instagram you got going so I seen it’s getting built somewhere up in Canada I believe. But I’ll keep that in mind I run 5-30 and oil I’ll run the 40 and hope something like this doesn’t happen again.
Sleeve the engine, don't go oversized pistons. You can make 500hp reliable. Tune & e85 can make more. Swap the trans. Comptetition Clutch & flywheel. Learn to drive stick. Trust me its more fun that way. Im building my gen atm. Going for 500-550..good luck.
I blew mine about a month ago 🤗 lol. I went out with a bang though, I could already hear it knocking real bad, and some guy pulled up on me who was about it. So when the light hit green I full sent it, went 140 or however fast idk that’s the max on dash. And I blew the guy next to me away. Idk what car he was in it was dark af, and my windows are blacked out, but he got gapped by a blown 2.0T 😂
this is sad to see... dont give up on it!! I drive a 젠쿱 3.8 Track thats tracked ALOT and I throw the car around extremaly aggressively and I am able to drive that same car home over 150km away the same day😅😅....in my experiance with this car, the 3.8 is a bit more reliable, especially the BK1 because the engine is MPI and not GDI, but I hope everything goes well with your car!! @shaw9.81📷
Absolutely I drove the car hard as hell 😂. So I blame myself 100%. I did always get my oil change 2500 to 3k miles and kept up with maintenance. But yes I drove the car hard forsure
Honestly not sure. I had a boost leak and it was overboosing at one point, that’s the only thing I can point out. Oil was changed religiously with 5-30 Ams oil. I changed the oil a week before it happened.
@@crbn_kid6116 i was just wondering cause i am considering getting this car but am wondering if its a reliable car whats your opinion since you own one
@@jonathanbrunache3848 I mean it has pros and cons forsure, it’s slow as hell and not the most high quality built car out there, a lot of people have had engine problems with this platform from what I’ve seen. The pros are the price point and the looks and you can do a lot aesthetically with it but There are so many better options for a sports coupe though. If I could go back I’d probably just keep mine FBO and do exterior mods I know its much more reliable that way. If you want decent power just buy something else.

you should never be shifting a gen any higher than 7500 rpm and you definitely shouldn't be trying to cruise at 8k
keep all your geni whells and parts and buy a sc
300
🤣🤣🤣 you were sitting at 8000rpm oh don’t that was the problem that’s over and beyond redline

Get her fixed
Will do 🫡😅
wait you got it tuned and you weren’t running afr gauge?
Nope I was not running afr gauge.
Would you say you drove it hard?
Absolutely I drove the car hard as hell 😂. So I blame myself 100%. I did always get my oil change 2500 to 3k miles and kept up with maintenance. But yes I drove the car hard forsure
What caused the motor to blow ?
Honestly not sure. I had a boost leak and it was overboosing at one point, that’s the only thing I can point out. Oil was changed religiously with 5-30 Ams oil. I changed the oil a week before it happened.
