Cheers.

I wasn't keen on the idea of using some random engine flush. Head will be removed, cleaned up and put back together with all new valve springs, retainers etc and also stem seals as those have been on their way out for ages.

Small update, quite a bit of wear on shims 9,10,11,12 on the intake side. Almost all of the gold coloured coating has worn off the top on these 4 compared to most of the others where there's a nice round dot in the center. There is also a shitload of carbon buildup in the oil galleries of the head, ...

Not sure about blow-by. I have pulled the cam covers off and measured the clearances between camshaft and shim and a couple on the intake side are above 0.25mm - top of the spec (0.15-0.25mm) right where the noise was coming from. Exhaust side also has 3-4 above spec (0.25-0.35mm) Now in the process...

Compression test from the front of the motor to the back showed: 160,165,170,170,170,160

Did not buy them, came free with the wheels. 1.5 degrees negative camber. Dude, get with the programme... the ...

As per title, after some tension/castor arms from an early model JZX110.

Anyone know which brand is best for stretching onto a wider rim? Currently got some 225/40/18 triangles on a 10J and there's bugger all traction. Also what is recommended pressure to run them at (I imagine its different to non stretched tyres, however not 100%).
