Data Update - Frequency Count Statistics

Just checked in on this thread and saw that another member has documented their own engine failure/replacement. This brings the frequency count to 22 occurrences. This brings the percentage of failures to 7.3% among members of the 350 forum.

Please refer back to my post #356 or earlier posts on this subject if further clarification of either process or counts is needed.

Not sure if this guy is a member, but here is another failure

[ame]

I stumbled upon his youtube channel while eating lunch. His failure appears to be user error as he ran it hard on the track with low oil. I think that's the gist of it. To be honest I only watched a little bit of his content, because his personality is pretty terrible.

He's been mentioned on this forum, and as far as I'm aware not a member. He also thinks the GT350R has a different motor than the base GT350...........

And yes, very punchable face.

Wow....how did you even make it through the video???

Tracking a car low on oil means you have no business tracking a car.

Winning combination.... lots of disposable income, plus zero common sense.

The video where he insists the GT350R motor is better than the base GT350 is pretty great. That was about all I could stomach.

Prolly a bad sign as a content creator when I'd prefer to stop watching a video in favor of getting back to work on cranking out tax returns :(

I left him a comment a while ago about the sunglasses in a dark car with an on and on rant.

I don't think he liked it very much

Takes all kinds. Could not make it all the way through that video. Sad the car will be "crushed". Makes my R that much more rare...

I tried watching a coupe videos and this is a sad way of trying to get attention as a middle aged man.

I feel for a lot of people, he is not one of them. his videos are oafish, and he wines like a child. In his video when the engine went out he missed shifts as well as drove it without any oil pressure.
