before you jump the gun and start replacing engines, try to soak some ATF in the cylinders to see if its caused by stuck rings, ATF should help free stuck rings or use Auto RX.

the 30k JDM engine got so much carbon on the pistons, all the rings are semi stuck, the oil rings are completely stuck, i took them out and clean them off, now they are free like a new set of ring.
