    Poor motor oil selection and excessive temperatures in rebuilt 7m

    Braided line is way overkill for the oiling system, describe the current system in detail?

    freeze plugs

    Meant to curve out and be staked in place, I don't replace that unless I 100% have to. Only additional advice I can give is if a plug is even slightly suspect after you fit it pop it out bin it and try again, this job has to be 100% perfect the potential for disaster is very high if one falls...

    rear tire wear

    Danger here being one of the N00b's is going to see your post and think "Hey I'll give it a go I have strings"....... It's bad enough some of the muppets think it's too expensive to get the car aligned correctly and would rather throw tires at it every 4k miles :nono: I have friends that...

    rear tire wear

    HUGE difference between a double a arm IRS car and a Nascar....:nono: I'd love to see someone try to do a 4 wheel alignment on an a70 and then check the results on a rack....

    !!!!!???what in the hell kind of blow off valve is that???!!!!

    1400+ hp requires a LOT of flow get on/off the throttle it's got to go somewhere... BoV's are really just a hole to leak excess pressure.

    Base timing values

    Try it and see..... Without some way to monitor knock it's all just guesswork. I tend to go for a conservative tune and don't like to run on the ragged edge so as I said any gains you get from doing this are fqr outweighed by the potential for disaster. (you would struggle to see an...

    Auto Tranny wont shift into 1st or 2nd gear while in "D"

    Again welcome Dude! If you were local I'd throw a "spare" at ya :)

    Base timing values

    Personally I think any gains are so small they're outweighed by the risk of damage/decreased performance if you get a dud load of fuel. Think of the Knock Sensors as "Explosion Detectors" they take action after the fact and often with a 7M that can be too late and ends in :cry:

    Base timing values

    Why do you think changing the base timing is going to lean out anything? Detonation damage from doing the above if the octane can't support the new timing ISN'T going to turn the engine into a plasma cutter it may BHG or break ring lands.

    Poor motor oil selection and excessive temperatures in rebuilt 7m

    Plumbing the accumulator in on the non filtered side =bad Clearences are pretty close to what I ran in my old 7M, I had a good result using Castrol 10/60 Synthetic and a 5mm shim in the pump relief.

    (video) ALMOST DONE. cam and valve noises

    2mm bigger valves huh? I'm willing to put $ on it it's not valvetrain noise..... (unless the oil feed to the head is 100% blocked and it's slowly eating itself)

    Auto Tranny wont shift into 1st or 2nd gear while in "D"

    They can fail it's a harsh environment for them to live in. They also have tiny windings so are easily damaged.

    GM Trans to 7M write up

    Do the Jz's have the steel spacer shim between the block and bellhousing?

    Auto Tranny wont shift into 1st or 2nd gear while in "D"

    Check the external wiring first ;) Make sure there's voltage on that wire before draining it.

    Bad idea..... What are your bearing clearences?

    1J won't start (sometimes, well a lot of the time!)

    Just don't go mental and smack it off the block ok ;) Bit of a tap might at least get you moving again till you can change it out.
