I do think Nissan should make right on this one since it was a bearing failure that is showing up in other cars.

He did mix the fuel up, but that didn't cause his bearing failure that other owners are also experiencing.

I went to the HKS Festival at Fuji Speedway this past weekend. There had to be at least 50 R35's there most of them modded. Unfortunatly I don't speak Japanese so I don't know what the real deal is, but they seem to be in love with them over here.

I find this to be pretty comical considering the fact that the single cam with over 200k miles in my s13 ran without oil for over 15 minutes one time (long story) and still runs great. You shouldn't be able to destroy a $55k engine by giving it a little gas in second gear.
