Hey, Im going to look at a 97 GS-T today at a dealer, not to farmiliar with the 4g63, can someone tell me what signs of crankwalk would look like? Thanks
 
Push the clutch in and out and watch the crank pulley. If it moves...yep.
 
if it had CWed in the past and fix there should be NO signs of CW, yet almost positively will CW agian...
 
if your so worried about CW buy a 90-92. other than that deal with it when it comes...enjoy your car first
 
dude, not all eclipses 95-99 get CW. go get the car check it out. i just got a 97 gsx at 99k miles and no CW. CW is not as prevelant as some people want to make it out to be.

i agree, i have friends with 100k+ 2g turbos, no signs of CW.
it is just the number of CW cases is overwhelming....
 
I got a 126,000 on my 97 GST, no sign of CW:thumb: original bottom end, be careful if you decide to upgrade the clutch to an act 2600. abusing your car too may times with this clutch will most likely give you CW, seen it happen before but only once.
