Pulled my running engine out couple weeks ago (155 Compression across the board), and a couple beers later head and pistons were out. Well engine had OEM STD Main and Rod bearings, so I ordered some Race ACL STD bearings.I had my 9:1 Arias pistons inspected by Arias themselves, and they look...
Pulling main and rod bearings and these part numbers look a tad weird.It's a 6 bolt, is there possibility that I have a 7 bolt crank? reason I ask is because these bearings say 2g, and I'm replacing with ACL Race 6 bolt STD bearings...
After trying to score a good deal on a 1g/2g trans setup, I'm starting to think that I am just going to go through with a 1G auto swap.The plan is:
Magnus SMIM
280 Cams
FP Black JB
38mm EWG
2.0 8.5 Low compression Arias/Eagle combo
E85I have a nitrous kit hanging around that I can use if...
Currently running a stage 3 Shep trans act 2600 combo, but really looking to do an auto swap. Mainly for reliability and consistency in launches.Pros and cons?
Im guessing it will be easier to go ahead and find a donor 1g auto
I've already checked all the above and everything was in line except a "Mystery boost leak" that I could hear coming from the crankcase and escaping through valve cover. First I thought, well its most likely the turbo seals, so I rebuilt the turbo to the best of my capabilities (No prior rebuild...

Still learning as I go anyways, I installed an AFPR. I know stock base pressure for 1g is 37 psi, but I'm working my injectors pretty hard, so would like to know what fp you guys run on your 1g? I have a 7 bolt head with 6 bolt block. What tuning adjustments would I have to make after raising...
First run ever at a track. Dump the clutch with 2 Step set to 4750 bog out, and take off, than hit the rev limiter from 2nd to 3rd, let off lost boost and shift. Thought it was a going to be a crappy run, but 12.557 ET, 2.1 60,and 115 Trap.2nd Run:
Set 2 Step to 5500 and turn on Anti-Lag...
Cars been running fine, drove it 200 miles last week. Parked it, boost leaked. Noticed that I had air going past my turbo seals and into the crankcase (Oil Gurgle). Started the car up this morning, and holy hell smoke everywhere! First thing I did was compression test, 150 all across. So tore...
So far since getting the car, it's been down looking for boost leaks. I rebuilt throttle body due to it having leaks, had some pinholes from my Magnus SMIM, sent it, got it rewelded. Injectors were leaking from the lower seal, so replaced that.Still, can't hold over 9 LBs, and I hear the dam...
Called up Magnus and they said if I send the Intake in, they will repair it free of charge so that's a sweet deal. They also told, me they have a deal going on, where they can give me $200 credit, and a fuel rail towards a new cast intake.Think its a good deal, or should this cut it?
Just removed my Magnus Intake Manifold, and noticed this. Does it look like a decent job, or a crappy garage job? Quality?I'm definitely a newbie when it comes to all this stuff, so I'm learning as I go, just have never seen a P&P Job so not sure whether its decent quality or not.
Long story short, I got a real nice 1G with a notable amount of work done to it. Only problem is, the person I got it off, bought it from an impound auction. He literally had no idea what was done to the car. Didn't even know it had a stage 4 shep trans.Anywho, I'm piecing together what is...
Found a huge boost leak coming from the throttle body area (Guess that explains my full boost coming in near 6500 RPM, if I was really even hitting full boost.) Anywho, wont go past 10 PSI with my 120 PSI Compressor, because of this TB leak. Well I've researched and found that the TB Shaft seals...
Long story short, I traded my 2008 Ninja ZX6R with 750 Miles. For a "Fully" built AWD 1990 GSX.The guy I traded with, bought the car off of an impound auction. It had a "RD ENGINEERING" sticker on the rear hatch, so I called them up and sent them pictures and behold, they remembered the car...

I'm just posting up my data log to see what you guys think. I'm extremely new to all this, I bought a Mint condition 1G about a month ago, just received my ECMlink V3 cable.

So bought the car thinking there was a clutch problem. Here's my symptoms:
Car will turn on and idle, but gears will grind and won't go in. I was able to start the car in first and drive it, but as soon as I put a little power to the engine, it just won't really advance forward, and it...
1995 AWD Talon TSI
So purchased car yesterday, previous owner said the problem started a month after clutch job at a shop.The car will engage gears when it's off, but when you turn it on they will grind when they're going in, almost as if no clutch is being engaged. I was able to force it into...
I'm getting a pretty sweet deal on a 1995 Talon TSI AWD. All stock except lowering springs and minor 2G conversion (headlights and tail)Has 80k miles looks in decent condition but here's the bad part he says the pressure plate went out after a shitty clutch replacement. Car will turn on and...
