Seizing the motor Ok, my parents REFUSE to let me sell my car, and I want a Z28 camaro for sale in my area beyond belief... SO what are some things I could do to my car without hurting myself or someone else that'll cause such overwhelming repairs that I'll end up having to sell it? Someone suggested water in the motor down the dipstick... Any other ideas?

you can tell them front wheel drive cars are dangerous...
as far as destroying your engine... how much nitrous are you running? Just pump it up to like 200 or 250 shot, lol, throw a rod thru the oil pan.
Sugar in the gas tank or drain both your motor oil and tranny fuild and dont fill it back up, lol.

You could always just hold the pedal to the floor in neutral and start counting. Before long, you'll need a new car 
....or my personal favorite.... drive downtown and park on a side side street in a "questionable" neighborhood 
With keys in ignition, doors unlocked, exit vehicle.... walk away....

Rev limiter is a band aid used to protect the engine in such an event that a gear is missed or top speed has been achieved.
Pistons/rods like to rev up, not be thrown back(forced)into a lower rpm as happens when you bang the limiter.
Too much of a good thing IS bad. My bet is that you spin one or more bearings/rod bolt failure resulting in tennis ball size hole in the block. Ooooppps.

With gas prices you better keep it.
