    2G What brand coilovers are good for GST?

    Flatout suspension is absolutely a good choice and what I would recommend. At $1,500, they're a bargain for what you get and how they perform. I bought them for my 1g AWD a couple years ago and am very happy with them.If the $1,500 price tag is too much, then just go with whatever Chinese...

    For sale 1g Koni Ground Control Suspension

    This is a complete coilover style suspension setup for a 1g. Included are Koni shocks (front and rear pair) along with Ground Control coilover sleeves and Eibach springs. I had this on my AWD for several years (most of it could probably be used on a FWD too) and was really happy with it. I have...

    Difficult repairs; we are not alone

    Just about anything on my old 1991 300ZX. It was really cramped in that thing. Awesome car but a pain to work on.Just about everything on the DSM has been pretty straightforward and easy in comparison. Except maybe pulling out the clutch pedal assembly. That sucked the first time around.

    RockAuto: "We cannot ship to this address"

    @dwb @ErikTande The sales to Colorado is hit and miss and depends on where you ship to supposedly. I'm in Adams County and back in 2019 their system wouldn't ship to me. I placed an order for some steering parts a month ago and they did ship to me. So if they didn't before, give it another shot...

    "Lucky" Sevens Talon

    Some really cool progress on this car! It's got to be the only Eagle Talon (maybe the only Eagle) in all of Bulgaria! Possibly the only one in Europe.... Does it get a lot of attention from people?

    Torque Plate and Head Gasket Question

    FWIW, I've never used one for the handful of SBC motors I've rebuilt, and neither has my step dad for the dozen or so he's done. Two of those SBC motors are still going a decade later. I didn't use one on my DSM rebuild (OE rebuild), and that motor now has two years and several thousand miles on...

    1G What are these hoses and should they be connected?

    @Redongreenon on the inside of the car's hood (bonnet if you're English) there might still be a sticker that shows how the vacuum lines are supposed to run. It's similar to what was posted by DSMPT.Just out of curiosity, what does the European and Japanese emission vacuum line layout look...

    2G Ground for the block or body?

    If it were me, I'd double check the wiring to the starter really quick. Make sure no wiring got pinched or torn during the removal and replacement of the motor. Verify it's all connected and plugged in where its supposed to be. On my car (I have a 1992 model) the starter has a ground wire with...

    2G Ground for the block or body?

    I assume you've verified the battery is good and you've got full power when you turn the key (headlights work, door chime makes noise, etc.).You say the starter doesn't do anything. Do you mean literally nothing, as in completely lifeless, or it just doesn't start the car? For example, when...

    2G Which clutch should i get?

    I went with a South Bend SS-TZ and am at maybe 280-300hp (according to ECMlink). It is a harder pedal but definitely streetable. Could sit in stop and go for an hour or two and not mind. I had a stock style Napa clutch in there early on at the same power level. It did alright. Some slight...

    1G Another Idle surge post!

    Gonna need to learn how to check for vacuum leaks and do a boost leak test (BLT) like jed mentioned. Idle surge is probably changing when it's warm versus cold because the motor and parts expand as they heat up. That expansion pushes all the parts closer together and better seals things.The...

    Street Build 1G Build: Return of the DSMer!

    Thanks for the explanation! That Vibrant catch can is sharp! I went with a Mishimoto catch can (first Mishimoto product I've ever tried) because they offer a way to recirculate into the intake and pull with a vacuum. I'm only on a small 16g and E85 at low 20s psi, but my rebuilt motor seems to...

    1G Piston question.

    Judging from the info in the thread posted above, the motor you bought for $300 is stock and was maybe rebuilt once in the past. If it was rebuilt with stock parts, then the turbo and injectors would be stock also. Stock injectors for a manual transmission 1g were 450cc and colored blue, and the...

    1G Piston question.

    The pistons I pulled from my 1g Talon had those markings on the top "63DT". I was told they probably weren't the stock pistons by another member on here.Pretty certain the intake manifold looks the same regardless of the car's model. They all have the "ECI Multi" on top. And the valve cover...

    1G Mitshimoto radiator problem after problem

    Sorry to hear that Mishimoto has hit or miss quality. I just got a 3 port catch can from them that appears to be of decent quality. I wanted a Calan catch can, but he's not making them at the moment. The packaging the Mishimoto comes in was a little overdone for my taste (not the Fedex box, the...

    Rising Price of the older DSM's

    Am I the only one who is bummed DSMs are going up in price? I loved the days when I could hop on Craigslist and find a few new 1g DSM postings daily. Almost always under $2,000.That was part of the appeal.....cheap speed! Spare motors, shells, parts, even entire cars for under a grand.

    Resolved Desperately need paint help..

    Agreed on the mineral spirits. Leaves an oily residue behind. Could try turpentine, but it too can leave an oily residue behind.If you use the iso alcohol, know that it's partly water, so wipe that off soon after you spray it on bare metal.How much are you thinning the paint? Too thin and...

    1G High NOx at 15mph only (CA smog)

    A wideband would help, because then you could see what air/fuel ratio you're running at.But even without a wideband, we can tell you're running lean, because your NOx is high. If it were me, I'd try and track down any vacuum leaks and check my EGR. Once you're 100% positive there's no vacuum...
