Message or a bolt/nut etc to fall between the cogs on the belt or gears. And BAM! There goes ur valves and most likely damage the pistons.

This happend on my Talon TSI turbo. The balance shaft belt broke and slipped under the timing belt which caused ALL my intake valves to be bent, mess up the valve guides and put dents on my top of pistons.

Luckily, I got away with just replacing the head and using a dremel to smooth out the sharp edges on the pistons. I only paid $200 for another head and ported it out.

BUT a Z will cost MUCH MUCH MORE!

NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin.
