EDIT: i see it is broken, im sure itll still work find though. as far as breaking things in half goes, yours isnt that bad.

LOL, too funny. That should be fine. I say JB it and put it back in the engine. A few miles of spirited driving should straighten it out good as new.

Or you could put it on ebay and say it's JDM, should get a few bids.

That is the best way to lower the compression for more boost I've ever seen.

For the record, selling it on EBAY as a two piece JDM rod assembly made me pea my pants a little

Hell a shorter stroke will let you rev higher. that might even out rev the 13b that me and my brother are building for his 88 vert.
