not to mention the coil pack/wires/valve cover bullshit contraption that gets a hairline crack in its shity plastic and stops the car from running. try to find a quad 4 coil pack in a junk yard. you wont, and its NOT because there are no quad 4's in there, thats for sure.

Iv dismantled many a car at the junkyard in my 3 years and honestly the quad 4 has always stuck out as a peice of ----, right up there with pulling a jaguar v12 cylinder head, which has about 40 million tight fitting studs, not even a forklift and bouncing the car off the ground took that unbolted head off, took atleast 2 hours to slowly shimmy it up perfectly evenly befor it came off. no wonder most jags get 350s.

Hear are a just a few reasons, coil pack as mentioned, stupid ass head design, timing cover has to be completly removed to do realy any motor work and thats a pain in the ass cuz they have more bolts in the timing cover then they do in the inside of the engine =/ and the list can go on.

Jag's are tanks tho, and get good fuel economy for what they are. Handling is incredible but i feel you man.

yea but i will give it to gm, the dohc v6 3.whatevers your talking about are bad ass.

Which is why i believe its in the same catagory as the ford SHO v6 - Which was designed by yamaha for a mid-engine sports car to compete the gms ----, plan got scraped and ford had a contract with yamaha for a buncha motors. so they trew it in the taurus, no joke.

Basicly i need proof gm designed that bitch, those dohc v6's are bad ------- ass. thats what my preludes getting in her trunk one day....=)

the 6.3 is prob designed by suzuki just like every other reliable engine in gm's line up haha

coolest ---- about jags is the rear disk brakes, mounted on the differential, not the wheels.

Litteraly on the axle shaft in the middle of the car.

i was pritty confused for a second when i had to pull the rear caliper heh

thats pretty bad ass tho :-D

it was till i got fed up and had to pull the whole suspension down to get em off.

They also have 2 complete coilover/shocks for each back wheel, one of the front of the lower control and and one on the back, right next to eachother.

damn this should just be the bastard weird design thread. i am suprised no one is pissed off at the fact you can never ever get a rear strut bolts out of a honda lca without them snapping. geez honda lets put 2 materials that corrode themselves together

see in florida,a place that gets no snow and never see's rust due to lack of road salt, you dont have those problems lol.
