Default 451whp and 600Nm torque

My aps tt z is finally ready! only 1 problem. I drove it like 1 hour and the block exploded. I was really pissed off!!! The reason: a problem of nissan itself. I cant explain it in english but we can prove it. Now i am making my Z standard again to receive a new block from nissan. With that block I will change everything. Rods, pistons, ... The block must be capable of 600+whp. The new journey begins. PS: 530hp on the block was freaking good to drive. The 3"exhaust sounds beautiful.

hmm...

the turbo went on the stock block...
the stock block exploded...
the guy expects Nissan to furnish a new block...

I thought the stock block warranty was voided on step one???

This is funny. Not sure who is dumb enough to try to put that much power on the stock block and think it's Nissan's fault.

Just when I thought I've read everything...

Seriously though...how are you going to prove to nissan that it was their problem when you were boosting your stock VQ to 530hp?
