Ok so ive gone through 5 starters now in a month... for some reason the case keeps breaking around where the bolts connect to the tranny. The tranny is a T5... any ideas on what could be causing this? thanks in advance =)

Do you have to bolts to tight or to loose? does it make any sounds when you turn the car over?

Tight or loose the housing will break, and it just will not turn over. I went and got a high torque starter from a performance shop and it starts and did not break... but now all my cylinders are not firing properly... probably a different related issue but im going to check all the grounds tonight.
