    did you take all the cam caps off? Pictures would help.there's a big oblong style cam cap on the drivers side. It doesn't look like the others
  5. Help with Rim Choice (w/ PS Pics)

    All things considered, I'd go with number one
  6. Intermittent Power

    I think the filters are different. The 95's filter is on the firewall and 96 - 99 are by the tank.
  7. Fiber Glass Enclosures with a light weight twist

    Check out this link..2GNT.com - Fiberglass_Subwoofer_EnclosureI've wanted to do this for years, just to lazy. This should give you an idea of the work involved if your really interested.
  8. Need car help

    Jack up the car and check for play in the wheels. That will help narrow down your problem. Then hop underneath and start wiggling things till you find what's loose or worn. Better luck on finding a 'real' mechanic
  9. Thermal N/T Exhaust on GS-T?

    OP - no question then.. do it for the look and sound as it wont hurt performance
  10. Thermal N/T Exhaust on GS-T?

    Is it a full exhaust or catback? the catback should work but thats it. whats the diameter of the exhaust?
  11. Loud pop noise when braking

    Come on buddy.. post 5. I called it before you haha.
  12. Loud pop noise when braking

    And you said you cant take the wheels off? If they're aftermarket rims you just need a lugnut key. Might even be in the trunk or glove box
  13. Loud pop noise when braking

    have you looked at your rims? sounds like a bolt on your calipers came loose causing the calipers to move when you first break. they would move one way in reverse.. the other in first. If that happened your calipers could be hitting your rim causing the sound your hearing. you'd be able to...
  14. How can I keep my boost gauge vacuum line from slipping off the intake mani nipple?

    Adjustable Cable Tie Guntry a zip tie gun similar to this. it will get the zip tie super tight more than you can get by hand plus a little RTV. if that doesn't work try some PL construction adhesive that stuff sticks anything to anything but good luck getting it off
  15. Need little help

    You could probably find an OEM one for around that price. That fan in the link wont pull nearly as much air as on OEM one.
  16. New GSX

    That poor bumper! :cry:
  17. What is the likelihood of this..?

    still skeptical but interesting
  18. What is the likelihood of this..?

    with the amount of time and money he would have had to put in to get those numbers I'd say no it's not legit at 1000 bucks. But that being said.. definitely go take a look. Got a link?
  19. Air Brush Durability On A Valve Cober

    You could look into hydro coating. Some amazing looking things can be done with hydro coating and very durable
  20. What is interchangeable?

    Yes awd specific. The exhaust routes differently because of the driveshaft and the gas tank is differenthttp://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/398530-awd-fwd-exhaust-differences.html
  21. wot problems

    I would suggest getting a wideband so you can see what your air fuels are at wot. I would bet you are lean do to a fuel problemyour profile says 91 talon
  22. Parking my DSM, any tips on keeping it healthy?

    Dryer sheets/ moth balls all over it to prevent critters from making it their home. Can't imagine the weird stuff you'd get in arizona
  23. Intake vs Headers

    OP - This is spot on. see the torque increase with intake and header. horsepower is just a number torque is what you feel. most importantly do what YOU want.
  24. Intake vs Headers

    Buy a cheap ebay intake.. its just a pipe. I wouldn't waste the money going AEM. Then spend the rest on a quality header. cheap ones can crack and are welded like crap. You'll get a little more top end power.
  25. 2G where is the Valet button?????

    Are you sure you didn't just blow a fuse. Did you even check other possible reasons forn a no start
  26. Starting issues - No / Doesn't / Won't Start - MERGED

    Do compression test. If the valves don't seat the engine can't create enough compression to ignite the fuel.
  27. Starting issues - No / Doesn't / Won't Start - MERGED

    2GNT.com - Removal_of_Passenger_Side_Motor_Mount_Plate_OnlyThis is a good step by step for ya.I had to take off the front and rear motor mounts and jack the engine way way up to get that thing off. Sorry to say but I can guarantee at least some of your valves are toast
  28. Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    A small leak after an hour of driving will cause you to lose a lot of coolant which gets replaced by air. While driving your fine because the air from moving keep the engine cool. Then you stop in a parking lot and the temperature sores find that leak and hopefully problem solved. Good luck buddy
  29. leaking fluid help!

    Clutch fluid?
  30. Car wont hold coolant?

    You get a coolant tester that goes on the radiator cap and pressurizes the system which in your case would spew coolant out so you can find the leak.
  31. Slight over heating

    When is the last time you flush the radiator? Is the front of it all banged up from the previous crashes causing bad air flow?
  32. Craked head, Cracked block or bad gasket?

    I would do a leak down test before pulling anything
  33. Fuel filter... Help!

    Disconnect the fuel pump relay. Its under the rear seats. Then turn the car on until it dies. That will relieve the fuel system pressure. Then it's pretty much like what phoenix said Make sure you use 2 wrenches. You will spill some gas so be ready for it
  34. 292 camshafts mpg decrease

    Can't believe nobody commented on this. You're not even up on your maintenance and if you want to throw on huge cams . Google 2GNT upgrade paths and follow that.
  35. wierd sound

    Small vacuum leak?
  36. Quick question

    Are you losing coolant? If you are find that leak which is how air is getting in and hopefully should solve your heat problem
  37. Another clutch problem! Master cylinder?

    When I bought mine it leaked on the driver compartment side and took me forever to figure it out because I assumed it was good since it was new. I won't make that mistake again
  38. black vacuum box

    Ignore this I thought you wanted to know where the Cruisecontrol mounted. The box your talking about mounts right under the intake manifold stays. I'm actually pretty sure it's 14 mil but I could be wrong. Like said above its one bolt on top 2 on bottom
  39. black vacuum box

    If it is the cruise control you're talking about he meant it gets bolted to the firewall in the passengercorner
  40. exhaust removal & brake help

    PB blaster. Ill never use anything else. Spray it on the bolts, wait a while and try again. It literally turns the rust into water. There's a good article somewhere on here about breaking in your brakes
  41. Colant trouble

    replace the radiator cap. if its not sealing good then coolant wont get sucked back into the system from the overflow tank
  42. header help

    you can wrap your header in heat wrap or get a heat shield. The wrap would be easier. I wrap my stock manifold in the titanium wrap and its really good. I know you can use the cat back from a GST and that should give you a good sound but since there is no cat I don't know how it would fit on.
  43. 420a low compression

    How about a leakdown test. Should give u an idea of why the compression test was lowNot to insult but are you sure your doing the comp test correctly
  44. Need help. Crankshaft Pulley

    Not to contradict anyone But I was using the Chrysler puller and it still broke a tab of my pulley. Just bad luck I guess
  45. Car dies

    I've heard these could be symptoms of a fuel pump going out . I would research into that
  46. Car Overheated / Overheating / Overheats [MERGED]

    How new is the coolant. First things first with any overheating issue I would flush the system and refill with new fluid. Also is your radiator all gunked up on the front. Spray it down with a hose to clean it off so it can get the most air flow.Your post is kind of vague can you please...
  47. mouse in my car. looking for advise.

    I only saw one or two when I looked, I'm more concerned with getting things sterilized cause I know mice are dirty little animals. I'm not worried about killing it if it is alive I'm going to get that little POS
  48. mouse in my car. looking for advise.

    thanks for the replies guys. all good ideas. Man i wish I would have put some moth balls or something in it. Ill let you know what i find when i really investigate later. (its like 5 degrees right now and no heat in the garage yet)
  49. mouse in my car. looking for advise.

    hey guys,So my car has been at my buddies house for a few months while I have been waiting to get a garage at my apt so I can rebuilt the head (timing belt snapped). I finally got a garage and we get the car over there and I see a bunch of mouse droppings in the trunk area and back seat...
