[Pies]

why have i only got 5 votes ffs!? im running 16psi on the standard ct26 and i still cant blow anything up!!!!

[Ako]

Ahem - I SHOULD be included in this list now anyway Al.

Despite already HAVING a dead 3S... I doubt the new one will last too long. I should put up photos of the last one, theres some piston pieces I literally have lost, think the turbo ate piston

During a quiet sedate boxing day drive in the back country, I decided that using 1/3 tank of gas in less than 1/2 hour wasnt good, so I filled up at the Moutere(re:hicksville) station. Some spirited driving ensued...
I get stuck by a couple of tourists in campervans.
Following them quietly I wait for a very large straight bit of clear road as to pass them on. pull out to the other lane, drop to 3rd gear and give it death, change to 4th right on the limiter and **WABAAANG** out the exhaust, fly past the campers at 1**km/h, pull back into the left lane and carry on to catch up to revhead,
change back to 5th and put my foot back down, car goes no faster.
I think "Hmm, how very odd" and try again, this time i can hear the turbo spooling hard out, look at my gauge and its sitting bang on 15.5psi, but the car still not going any faster..
Next thing the warning light pops up.
I pull over and 5 minutes later revhead realised that the mighty sw was no longer there, he turns back and checks the ecu error codes, #52.... Short/no signal from knock sensor..

so technically the engine hasnt exploded... but its the closest so far

mine isn't on the list, but I blew a headgasket. From what I can tell it appears to have been caused by a blocked water pipe on the block.

[Al]

Arrghh it broke AGAIN. Last week was it overheating when the thermostat didnt open

This week the clutchthrowout bearing collapsed or a spring came out of the clutch plate meaning the clutch won't disengage.

Time for a new clutch AGAIN

[MR2SIK]

its a good thing that toyotas are known for their exceptional reliability ah

[Al]

I never had a problem with it for over a year before I modified a few things and then raped it down the strip 100 times

[Mr Revhead]

sorry sean, i just thought you were struggling to keep up with the all conquering aw11

or stopped for a shag, thats why it took us a while to coem back, hoping to snap you in the act

should have a sensor for you tomorrow or wedensday

[Silent Knight]

I reckon since this poll was started Jason (TOYWGN) has taken the cake!!!

He had to get a new 3S put into the Dina so prize goes to him and his DEAD 3S...

[GT4-SUM]

nah jay wasnt on the list so that dont count.......

[markbrown06]

me, just blew up my gt-four (my bad) o well an excuse to rebuild it again ;P

[MR2SIK]

Thought Id bring this post back from the dead as I've just killed my engine

[Al]

too much boost not enuf oil!

[Akane]

My name is not in the list, is it because you guys finally have hope in my engine, or am I defaulted to have the crown for "most 3S's blown up known to mankind" already?

[Pies]

mine died too hehehe
