Ask them why the rev limiter is there then? I figured it would be there to prevent the rpm from going too high to prevent major damge to the engine, by some means of......limiting it or something :sarcasm:

Blow your engine?? Are you kidding? I drive around all day in first gear at 6250rpms or whatever it redlines at. And my cars fine. :sarcasm: Infact my car runs so good i havent driven it in 6 months. :biglaugh:

The only thing i would have done different... is if your going to sit at the limiter like that, dont shut the car off after 3 seconds...

That car was N/A awaiting a 1JZ swap. That explains the badge on the moldings.

Although I doubt you'd see immediate destruction, it's probably not the best to start it and 10 seconds later hold it on the limiter.

I know you don't care about that engine... just throwing it out there.

I wish youtube listed an address for some of these idiots on youtube, I'd go 300 miles out of my way to slap the shit out of some kid in the face, take his mom out for a nice seafood dinner and never call her back.
