    Damn, Having an aftermarket oil pressure gauge is scary :)

    any aftermarket gauge should come with its own sender. my autometer electrical did. also, theres way more that will need done besides shimming the pump. replace the oil squirter check valve bolts and get rid of the crappy stock oil cooler setup for one. that will help ALOT

    Well Crap!!!! help me plz

    the arp studs should be tqed to 90ft/lbs. if it is and still leaking, its YOUR FAULT for not prepping the block when you rebuilt the engine. you cut a corner, and are paying the price. a 1j isnt gonna save you from cutting corners.

    Ways to cure 7M oiling issues

    well, actually your replaceing the bolts that hold the squirters in. they have a check valve that runs off a spring inside them. springs wear with age and begin compressing earlier then origonally intended. which means they open at lower pressures then intended and hurt the oil flow to the...

    yeah, they make ~300rwhp all motor wit hthe right comp, cam, tuning etc..., with the intake and exhaust on the same side. i cant wait to see what the 3.1 6m i got planned will do with the 3 40mm dcoe's and tri mil 6-1 header, 12.5:1 comp, gude cams, etc.... hehehe

    Engine damage during shipping. Lots of pics.

    um, if the plug on the harness is busted, get the fuckers for an entire new engine harness from toyota. thats the only way fix what they broke without splicing(just splice the new one in after you get paid but they should foot the bill for it to be replaced) then also get them for the display...

    Do they REALLY shave pistons to lower compression?

    they do shave pistons. a common mod for the nissan z guys is to use the l28d crank which is the 2.8l diesel crank(longer stroke then the std l28 crank), the l24 (240z) rods which are longer, and ka24d pistons(flat top stock) that have 1mm shaved from the top as they have a higher wrist pin...
