That's an unfortunate situation he is in, but how can anyone blame Nissan for not covering that under warrantee? I can see being upset if all he did was put an exhaust or a couple bolt-ons, but he changed the tuning, and even admitted that the tune he used was meant for a higher octane fuel than he was using. He then admitted he gunned it past someone and it blew up. He was driving it hard, with the wrong tune. How can you expect anyone to honor that under warrantee?

That is one thing I do like about my DSM, if I blow it up, I know I can afford to lose it because I only paid $2k for it in the first place. I could not afford to blow up a brand new GT-R.
