That's beside the point though. In this case, OP removed them for a reason- to bring the U-joint back to the same angle the stock one was at with the washers. Questions that I have though is why is there 0 degrees of angle (I am assuming they want it at 0 degrees) on the first joint? Looked in...
Bro I hope you didn't forget to machine the timing cover with the block....
JK :icon_bigg
That block looks delicious!:yum:
Keep up the good work!
Wish there were more machine shops out there that did meticulous work like you!
Using them on my engine without much issue. I have good compression, but my engine does seem to lose a little bit of oil (can't say for sure its from the rings). Keep in mine the top ring is chrome which is very hard, so break in requires a proper finish on the block. Hard rings+very hard iron...
So are you saying that the amount of air rushing past the valve cover ports creates a venturi/pulls a vacuum on the crankcase? Though JJ isn't talking about the valve cover ports, he talks here about the accordion port. At WOT there is a ton of airflow through the accordion, but even that is not...
This confused me a bit. You say "The PCV ststem needs the vac to pull vapor out of the crankcase." but in reality even the OEM system does not provide this. Under no condition in the stock system is the crankcase under vac. There is simply a slight airflow over to two valve cover ports, either...
I never did understand why they decided to make a whole metal pipe assembly etc for the restriction. Why not just make the holes in the banjo bolt smaller or something simple like that? Seems like they spent a bunch of money where they didn't need to, though there must be a reason... if only I...
Not really familiar with the JZ but if you are talking about blocking off the coolant bypass (not sure if you are or not) it's probably not the best idea as you aren't going to have good circulation of the coolant with the t stat closed so your engine will not warm up evenly (engine will be hot...
Pretty sure that is what he is refering to. There is actually an OEM gasket for that, it's a bit strange I have to say. It is a thick piece of plastic with a sealer on both sides.

No don't do that either haha. The PCV system on the 7m is a little odd compared to NA engines. When you are cruising around low speed, there is hardly any flow in the turbo inlet area, so vacuum is pulled through the small restriction in the throttle body, and PCV vapors are drawn towards the...
Wow wtf who would put a nail in there. Anyways, if I understand correctly, can't you just step on the brake pedal (assuming all the calipers besides the one with the nail are installed) and pop it out with the pressure in the line?
Hey man I really appreiciate the offer! I however found a really good deal on a Blitz Nur Spec catback so I picked that up. It is in really good shape, but the fart can look is going to have to grow on me :p
Thanks for the compliments! Ya the car was non-abs.
Purchased a new front bumper...
