Yeah no kidding eh, Im so glad I DIDNT get the Nissan. Its really unbelievable.

They also had a problem with the BISS screws coming loose from vibration and falling into the engine, destroying your valves.

Yeap, a friend is on his third engine while another friend is on his fourth. I think they both have headers now that they're out of warranty. And the screws came out as well, but luckily no damage done. The earlier models had a little tranny trouble as well.


Good choice on getting a svt. I don't know about exchange rates, so I don't know if the one you're looking at is a good deal. Just don't rush it. SVT Contours can be found for very cheap on a pretty regular basis.

And by far, the best bang for the buck mod is a 3L swap. Simpler than that, the best would probably be headers and aftermarket/modded y-pipe.
