Ok guys i have a big problem. during a bluff on the street by a turbocharged honda civic type r, i launched big (about 9.5k) and the car took off like a rocket, powershifted 1st, 2nd 3rd en then it came. a awefull sound form the engine bay. and the revs rocketed up. i stopped the car immedieatly, killed it and went to inspect and found out that the flywheel basicly blew up. the underside of the bellhousing wi complely smashed. sounded like a bomb wnet off in there. please give me a honest opinion of what kinda damage to expect when i pull the engine out. i do have another gearbox at home with stock GTR 33 internals. is there a chance my OS GIKEN cross mission gearset is smashed, or that i have cranck damage, or worse that somthing in my engine got shot. please i need your help, should i strip the engine and the gearbox and have them checked for damage, or should i just replace the flywheel and clutch, cus the part that bolts onto the cranck stuck on and the screws seem to loosen.

dude it could have happned to me while i was on the track. any how we pulled the motor apart a hour ago and the news is positif. there is no damage whatsoever in the engine. clearances checked out correctly. clean as a whisle. the gearbox got a nasty gash in the bellhousing, but the internals are fine. ill have the internals xrayed tomorrow to check for things you cant see. but its looking good so far, my new clutch was waiting to go on anyway. changing the housings tomorrow. want to get it back on the road. And dont streetrace, that pice of flywheel that shot out made a 15cm hole in the asphalt and it can freely break through the fire wall and kill you. streetracign is bad and illegal even in my lawless country

    • Yes, the problem is the supply chain hasn't standardized on metric which makes it more expensive to source metric hardware. They're all mail order at this point. Fastenal is cheap but you can't exactly rock up to a fulfillment warehouse as a random D2C. Paying 13 USD in shipping for 3 nuts doesn't really make sense. McMaster-Carr and similar companies are all in a similar sort of boat. If you like gambling on mystery hardware Amazon is cheap too but you're going to be buying 25 of whatever screw you need. So Lowes/Home Depot ends up being the way to go if you really only need small quantities of hardware for odd jobs like trying to rebuild a power steering pump that calls for an m6x1.0 screw to pop out the flow control valve. 
    • What size bolts did you use to reattach the cam cover baffles? Thinking it will need to be M3-M4
    • Yeah one of the first things I out in when I started having catch can filling up issues. Still prefer to empty 1-2 times a track day rather than every session
    • You'll find this link is probably more useful  Performance Turbochargers - Garrett - G GT GTX GTW Series Turbo TBG G35 1150 map may not even get added to my list depending on how it looks, the G35 1050 already is a mixed bag for making the numbers you would expect from the compressor map due to mismatch - I don't know how another 10lb/min of compressor flow is going to make that any better.   I've left out others for similar reasons as it's already getting quite big.   In terms of Precision, provide me with legit compressor maps for them and I'll do my thing   I'll add some more of the newer Xona Rotor options are they're pretty boss, I'd take a 68mm Xona over a G35 "1150" any day of the week - or Precision for that matter.
    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
