this is probably of no help, but i'm going through the same thing right now. just out of curiosity, where did you get the engine?

JDM's are terrible. you can rebuild your own engineby yoursself for 1000. unless your upgrading from a NA.. then it makes sense. Oh and a 7m to 7m is very straightforward. You could proably do it in a weekend if you have tools and a jack.

Last time I checked, my JDM is doing fine...heck I put her on the treadmill tonight. Anyways, it's a hit and miss with a JDM engine, you get a good one that's been taken care or you get the one that's been neglected. Same goes with ALL used engines....

ill have to agree on the 7mgte's as being not too great of motors, i have access to tons of them in japan but we end up bringing VERY few over that we know are in good shape and the rest we dont bother with because they are all junk, hence the loong waiting list for these motors
