    Reasonably Priced Brake Rotors that don't Warp?

    I can't find a list of mods for your car (probably my inability to navigate). Do you run stock rims or aftermarket. The wrong centerbore can warp discs. I found out the hard way!

    2G need new convertible top

    Question: Is your top just leaky...or do you REALLY need a new one (rips, tears, holes)? If your top is solid except for the leakyness and perhaps faded looks, you could do what I did and re-seal the inside. Loads less labor intensive!If the outside is looking faded you can freshen that up...

    2G GST - LOUD Popping / Plastic Cracking Noise Under Hard Accel/Decel

    I Think I've solved the mystery. I noticed my front motor mount looked like crap, so I bought a new one. The original was completely in two pieces. After installing the new one I haven't heard the noise again.

    2G G Plus Coolant Hose Kit

    I've been driving my 2G Spyder GST on borrowed time since I purchased it 3 years ago. There's been this one little coolant line near the oil cooler that has ALWAYS been weak and mushy. I finally got around to buying and installing a coolant line replacement kit.The kit seems Very high...

    Has anyone ordered and installed a Silicone Hose kit from Amazon?

    Hey! Thanks Everybody! I really didn't think I'd get much response since I couldn't find any posts concerning this kit using the search function. This was exactly what I was hoping to hear. Now when another owner does a search here they'll probably find this. I'll try to shoot a video of the...

    Has anyone ordered and installed a Silicone Hose kit from Amazon?

    I'm wondering if anybody has any experience with the silicone radiator hose kits from Amazone. These kits include all of the coolant lines all over the engine. I just got mine and haven't yet installed it and am wondering if anyone else here has had a set on their car for a while and what their...

    Hello! New Member

    Hi Shawn. Nice car. Sorry to hear about the crankwalk. I got lucky when I bought my GST Spyder in that I hadn't even heard of crankwalk...but managed to snatch up a '99 which don't have the same issue as the earlier 2Gs. Good luck on your restoration and rebuild. You'll have tons of fun once...

    Exhaust recommendations

    I am supremely happy with myGST SR.S 3" cat back and Megan downpipe that I bought off Amazon. I wanted to retain a cat so I had to do some modifications, but without a cat I think it's strictly a bold on setup. My exhaust and downpipe cost about $425 all in, but it looks like the GSX SR.S is...

    Searching brand and notice for this FMIC

    I don't think that pipe kit is for an eclipse, at least not a 2G. It's, at best, missing the long straight return pipe that goes above the intercooler. My guess it that this is a Galant VR4 intercooler kit.

    AEM Stumble @ idle during Warmup - Wideband shows Lean

    Oh...37,000 miles on copper plugs might have had something to do with this issue!Other than a huge gap, they look (to me) to be in good condition. No cracked insulators. What do you old school hot rodders think?

    How many "Old-Timer" DSM Guys on here?

    Gonna be 48 in January. I've only had my DSM for 2 years! But, I remember reading a great article way back in 1989 about the then to be introduced 1990 Plymouth Laser Turbo in the February 1989 issuer of Sports Car Illustrated and well...I guess it kinda stuck!

    Any music fans hear? What's your favorite band and songs?

    Probably gonna take some sh*t for this...but I'm old enough not to care: Marshmellow - Know Me, Summer, Moving On, etc. I'll listen to all that dubstep garbage like Timestretch by Bassnectar all day long with the top down too.

    2G First Time AutoX, Any Tips?

    When you get to the autocross, find a spot to park and place any extra stuff you might have brought. Pull out your spare tire/jack and at least the driver side floor mat along with ANYTHING floating loose in your car and leave it all at your spot.Try to get there early and try to sign up to...

    2G (Video) Replaced my peeling passenger airbag!

    I picked up a used one from the salvage yard. One corner was beginning to curl up so I smeared a bunch of epoxy in there to hold it down. I had tried some 3M spray glue on my original cover but it just didn't hold.

    2G (Video) Replaced my peeling passenger airbag!

    I would just open the glove box and take a look at both sets of screws. My guess is at least one set is missing. In any event, you should be able to loosen the mounts and push it back in place.
