Blew up my car today )= - UPDATED
 

Well lets start off this story.

Im crusin Down Sunrise blvd with my friend behind me (he just got a eg hatch with a h22 drop for his daily driver) i was following behind this slow ass fiero that is justy pissing me off cuz there is no A/C in my car and its like 100° outside. So i downshift to second and take off my friend proceeds to ride my ass i fly by the slow ass piece that was blocking us from doing excess speeds; so i slam it into third and hes very slowly pulling up on my side, im like ---- get into fouth and it was there for a min and i was like wth is going on meanwhile my friend is leaving me like i just stood still. i look at my tach and im stuck at 6000rpm in fourth, im like wth, shift to fifth, and it doesnt wanna go anymore. im like ok wth!@$# push in the clutch and watch the rpm's drop to 1k then to zero, car died and i was like ----! looked over at my girl and said "well i guess its over" putted my way into the pick-n-pull parking lot and i was like well ----, popped my hood and saw the radiator hose had popped off then i try, so i reconnect it and start it up it starts but is putting like a lawnmower on crack. so im like 10 miles from my apt and 15 miles from my parents house. my friend said try and drive it to the gas station well put water in it and see how far it can get.

we get to the gas station then i open the radiator cap and put some water in my radiator, bout 3 minutes later im like ok it dont take this much water look down at the turbo (im running just the downpipe) and water is pouring out the exhaust side im like ----! kinda relieved at the same time cuz we were like maybe its just the head gasket, so it takes me 3 hours to get home stopping and breaking down and stopping and hitting every red light and smoke blowing EVERYWHERE.

Although i must say this, my turbo got me home, meaning when i tried to take off from a stop i would let it out at 3k and it would drop to 1k then take seriously about 45 seconds to get to 2k as soon as the turbo spooled it pulled like a all motor one point five! well theres my story. and heres a pick of my car as it sits until i rip her apart.

I <3 MY TURBO!!!!

i like you door handles :P you did it yourself and used astro van poppers right?

Re:Blew up my car today )=

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

Cracked head if I had to guess. Tough break man.. I've done it before.

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

Quadnie,

I have never seen that ever happen on a honda, could be a sleeve.

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

Man I have a b18a1 head that completely full of cracks and is all fucked up.

I'll take a pic of it next month just for you

And based on my cast iron engine experience, that would be my best guess.

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

how the ---- did your radiator hose pop off????

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

allen what the ----? how did you blow your ---- up? that hella gay...oh yeah! did your injectors ever come? if not you owe me five bucks

Re:Blew up my car today )=

Re:Blew up my car today )=

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

well at least now you wont get impatient and try to shoot around people=P

maybe it was because it got hot ?

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

a busted HG wont cause that much water to drain out. the head gasket is high up in the engine. My guess is you have 1 or more cracked sleeves (hense the extra pressure that popped the hose).

Re:Blew up my car today )=
 

no a headgasket will cause a tone of water to go out if it fully blown, i did that once and i had antifreeze out my tailpipe. it was ------- nuts, the head and block were fine.

Re:Blew up my car today )= - UPDATED
 

ok well here it is, it was the headgasket that was making it leak so much water it was non-exsistant between cyl 1 & 2 well the sleeve has a chip on it too so im changing the whole thing out :)

This was a Problem.. i found a ------- FISH EATING AWAY AT MY BLOCK!

Re:Blew up my car today )= - UPDATED

Re:Blew up my car today )= - UPDATED

You need to find a natural predator of that fish and maybe keep that handy.

I remember I was in a pet store as a kid with my sister once and they had all the Beta fish in small containers on the shelf so we dumped one into another fish's bowl and watched them fight it out.. it was pretty funny.

Re:Blew up my car today )= - UPDATED
 

i put a tiny shark up against 3 piranas once

sharky didnt make it past round one

Re:Blew up my car today )= - UPDATED
 

ha ha

you know I had a friend who owned a bunch of fish, some sort of really mean killing fish (might have been a beta, maybe smaller.. but pretty fish). Anyways, he had all his fish in a small 5 gallon tank.. the moderately expensive ones and then some guppies. He said that the expensive fish used to pick on the guppies and ----, and one day one of the guppies just snapped.

Then that one guppie killed and ate all the other fish in the tank, like no competition. Only fish that survived was a really small guppie that managed to hide within the rocks. He kept that one psycho fish, in the big tank all on it's own just cause it was a complete badass fish. I saw the fish and I wanted to feed it's hunger for death but he didn't have another other fish to give it.
