    That sucks , I guess I will have to use my Rollingmaster single chain for the front. I don't want to take a chance of mine breaking.

              There's a thread on FTV6 about a good double roller combo using Cloyes chain. But the site's currently down. That's crazy how it let go like that.

              And wow was that Z32 smoking out!

                Wow, what spring are you running?

                I'm using a rollmaster single on mine with 130# springs.

                  I'm running Comp Cams 105lbs beehives.

                  If you want to get into road racing just sign up with NASA or SCCA. Personally I run with NASA-SE.com, great bunch of folks.

                  The exhaust is Pacesetter headers, Y pipe, factory mid pipe and some redneck conglomeration of two glass packs that was on there when I bought it.

                    Your car sounds amazing! I am also wondering your exhaust set up, if you dont mind telling us.

                      Update:

                      Finally got a hold of JP's American representative and I'll be sending the busted chain back so they can send me a new one.

                        Are they going to cover any damage done by the chain?

                          Well I just did a compression test and found out I have bent valves, so we will see.

                            Talked with their US rep. the chain will need to be sent back to Australia and then to the manufacturer of the chain it's self before they will discuss and further compensation.

                            7 weeks into this already and several more to go at best. :|
