^+1 just assemble it all put anything anywhere, then measure, do your math and swap them around accordingly. You may find that some are not even in spec, and in that case you need different shims anyways.

Let me know what you plan on doing im willing to help you out for free, but i dont want to run around for no reason. So just let me know if you want to use Toyota bearings and i will get some prices for you/order them and ship them to you.

If nobody else volunteers i can see if my local dealer will get them for me then send them to you. Is the part number specific to the #3 bearing you are looking for or do i need to specify?

Ya your best bet is finding someone in the US to buy them for you and send them over. You really want to stick with Toyota bearings as much as possible if you can, no point in going to standard sizes when you are all ready for Toyota bearings.

The compression numbers ARE going to come up no matter what, so dont worry yourself when they do, its just HOW MUCH they come up that you need to watch out for.

so your car is faster than a civic in a strait line and faster than a minivan around corners...DAMN! lol just kidding

What really pisses me off is the small ones that don't have the two outer tabs connected, and my pliers are just the right width that they cant grab both at the same time....

Mounts on the left side near the strut tower, but im pretty sure you dont need it unless you plan on using the stock boost gauge

One of them is good... the one im using lol. Heres the others... #1: #2

ok NOW its all done:icon_bigg Driftmotion studs/helicoils in. Just a tip for anyone else, get the damn machine shop to do it, this thing was a pita.:3d_frown: My closet...3 7m's later

Those mics and snap gauges are tempting, they are all i would need. All i am worried about is accuracy with the mics. Durability isnt a huge deal to me as they aren't going to be used hard or often. Can you confirm that they really are accurate?

Ah, thanks for the tip, looks like they are only in the east area of the US. Does anyone have any other suggestions for affordable brands of Mics and other precision tools? (Mitutuyo is over $100 for one mic, i dont have that kind of money to dispose of at this point in my life)

Thanks, that makes sense now just needed a wake up. My next step is to get a hold of some measuring tools and figure out what my problem is as well as what i need to repair it. Once i get everything measured its cake. Hard part is finding someone to let me use their tools, might end up having to...

Mic everything out and use the TSRM to see if your engine falls into different bearing categories. If not you need to re size things to get it to work.

Its so much cheaper to do it right the first time. Almost .003" is a lot of clearance, and your bearings are a very vital part of your motor, you dont want to put it like that. Your main clearances are way out of spec. Are you testing this with Std size bearings, or Toyota bearings?

You DONT want to just throw new bearings in it. You have to realize the pressure on those rods when they are knocking. There is a lot just doing regular driving but once you have impact the force multiplies greatly, and you could have a rod out of round or a crank out of round now, so definitely...

Did you make sure that theres still oil in it?

Glad you found the problem!

:aigo: $215.00!!! Wow... Oh well too late now, gotta help a guy out every now and then:icon_bigg
