This like arguing over whether is water wet. There are too many opinions!! It's your car, do what you want with it but most of all enjoy it. Use an old beer can for your IMSB or Unobtanium, as long as it works for you, that's cool. I did not use the ceramic bearing, installed it myself (wicked easy), and put my young daughter in the car as her DD. I'm not worried, I did this as a maintenance measure @ 122K miles as we were in there to change the clutch and make the car solid and reliable as a DD with a pretty young girl driving it. The unfortunate part of an IMSB failure is that it is fatal to the engine. Not like a water pump that will leave you stranded but fixable.

It's your car, enjoy it...please.
