Yea my car is pretty harsh and vibrates the whole car down low rpm. Once your into it and going full throttle its fine. I'll prob drill some holes to allow it to move a bit soon.

Matt, just brun them out and bring what ever u need pressed in down to my dad

sweet, cheers.

Yeah i think the jz and 7m are fairly smooth running engines anyways. so should be ok.

still no word from autolign :roll:


Yeah - big rotational mass on both helps to smooth out vibrations :)

the 1G's actually not bad for a widdle motor! over 8K they get a horrible vibration but that's another topic.....

matt you'll be sweet with the urethane mounts - the 7M (have you got the fully counter-weighted crank model?) is a very smooth engine.... Get the whole thing balanced from pulley to clutch and you'll be amazed. My old man got that done by some crowd in CHCH - its veeery smooth

yeah, full rotating assembly has been balanced
crank is the counter weighted one, but has been knife edged. but yeah all ok.

Should be fine in that department.

would i be able to bring my car in to get some bushes pressed in at some point? i want a good, honest mechanic working on my car and its so hard to find good ones, and i know your dads workshop is very good. i have a bush in the rear arm each side and front arm, front bush on each side.
