Allright, my oil filter keeps coming loose from under my car, i need a quick but reliable and ingenious solution to fix this, i dont understand why it would be coming lose. i pulled the stud out and wrapped it in lock-tyte, but it still comes loose once in a while. I hate not being able to turn...
Dude the exact same thing just happened to my block. have you fixed it yet and if so what exactly did you do. Didnt know if the welds would be strong enough to handle the torque of the 2600. please get back to me quickly.
Thanks,

Allright all the bolts appear to be tight. But when i press ion the clutch the whole tranny andbell housing shifts towards the passenger side, but the block remains still I cant really determine where the stress is coming from?
Thanks guys,

I use lock tight every time and I torque them down to specifications and i just had my timing belt done 10,000 miles ago. Still dont know why, I'm gonna go out and do a lot of steps to it. Check the slave cylinder, master cylander, mess with the pedal assembly, adjust the something rod...
Allright, ever since i put in my ACT 2600 my gears would grind like crazy and never go into gear. I snooped around and realized that 2 bolts were extremely loose from my bell housing to my block I tightened them up and the problem was resolved. But it keeps on coming back. there always coming...
No my O2 housing is RNR's and its an external dump.Im using a MBC to control boost.
All i want to know is if i need to get a wasegate or not? even with the stock turbo.
Thanks,

Allright Ive searched and read alot of post. I have an externaly dump tube on my RNR O2 eliminator turbo back. They say to rid boost control problems get a ported O2 housing i have the RNR 3 inch one and i have an EvoIII manifold. I can't control boost once so ever. What do I need to do to...
Ok, I just got my 3 inch o2 eliminator turboback with an external dump, im boostin a hair before 20PSI at WOT, Kinda hairy. How would I eliminate the creep even if i have a 3inch o2 housing and a evo III manny? Would I need a external wastegate even on the stock 14B?
Thanks,

I have the RNR turbo back and it rattles pretty bad at certain RPM'S and it kinda sucks im gonna try and go under there and reinforce it with bungee cord or something. also the tip doesnt stick out very far from the back of the car so i cant see it and it burn my back buumper.

Ive gone through 4 alternators in the past 5-6 months, they keep going bad. I think my power steering pump is leaking onto my alternator. would the fluid inside damage my alternator quickly? or have any of you all had a similar problem with their alternators going bad often?
Any...
Allright when my good ol RNR o2 eliminator turbo back exhaust gets here, I plan on turning the boost up on my 14B to around 15psi. You guys think i should install my 255lph pump or should the stock pump do just fine for racing puroses?
thanks,

I would love to punch that red-headed son of a beotch that is in those "Call ATT" comercials right in the juggler. I think they call the baster d Carrot Top. Hes not even funny they have to be losing money from that clown.
A friend of mine told me that Mazda was recalling the rx-8 due to the fact thousands of them have been tested to be pushing a whopping 170HP to the wheels. So any of you worried about lining up with one of these, i guess you have a damn good chance of taking it. I couldnt find any proof of this...
Clean youe ICS with carb cleaner, might do the trick, i had the same problem just take off you TB and spray the butterfly and the lil one real good with carb cleaner.
Hope this helps,

I cant kick this leaking oil deal, it dumps the oil on the bottom of my tranny and on the flex section of the down pipe. This creates massive smoke behind my car during acceleration. i replaced the oil filter and the stud is tightned down with lock tyte. and i dont think that would the cause...
Right! Im still not sure what i wanna do. I busted my ass for this car i paid for every penny of it, and then someone comes along and puts a huge dent in it, if i could get you guys to vote it would be great i wanna show his kid this thread maybe he'll pay for it without me demanding it from...
Allright fellas, heres the deal. A friend went with me to a track down there in Eureka California, after I was done racing, I went to grab a bite to eat. While I was eating I hear my friend say What the hell happend to your car? I turn my head and there a huge E'ffin dent in my passenger side...
I bought my 92 TSI for 4000 this car was competely stock, and the interior is in emmaculate condition, the car ran beutiful, 110,000 miles, and one owner. People told me this was a lil expensive for a 1G. Well not all 1G are the same condition, I think what i paid was a fair price, and remember...
The clutch is fairly new, probably only 3000 miles on it. When ever i shift it, something jolts hard, it also does it when i start the car but not at idle, if it motor mounts how would you check them? From the bottom or top of the car? Also how much would they cost to replace? Another thing is a...
Allright fellas, I just got done rodding my car racing a 2001 GS eclipse more for fun than competition. any ways when i stopped for a light something clunked forward. felt like the tranny or something jolts forward, it also "clunks at idle now. Also a rattle occured at the same time. Whenver i...
why you gonna swap a turbo engine with a N/T?
Any way the 2.0 N/T will have higher compression around 10 or so, which makes a horrible turbo motor, probably would work but find a way to turn your boost down to like 7-8. the 1G Turbo motors compression was 7.8:1 makes a better turbo motor.

When i installed my EVO III mannifold i took off both shields, and havent putten them on yet. i see no signs of melting fans or anything, plus it looks better i think.
-KY
Thanks ^^^But if i were to build my own dont the 1'gers have to get a differnt block?and any of you kjnow how much it would cost to fully port and polish heads with new valves and spring snd shizz? just a guesstimate?
Thanks,
-KY
Would it be less exspensive to get a shortblock from magnus, or building one yourself considering that you do none of the maching work. and you use the same internals. I want to build a 4g64 or buy one from magnus. And also would i need the 4g64 block or the g64b block to put in a 1g.
p.s. i...
I replaced my alternator fuse today cause it was fryed i put it in and went to put the positive cable back on the battery and instantly the fuse burst. what could be causing this, i dont wanna be stranded all day, i thought next time to just take of the negative side of the battery off.
Thanks...
I have a boost, EGT and a oil pressure guage. the Egt and boost guage are hooked up to work but they are not hooked up to work with the dimmer lights.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
-KY
how do you take the guage bezel off so i can set up my gauges to turn off with the dimmer switch. i could use a good site or step be step instructions, ive had the guages for 2 months now and i havent installed them to turn off with my lights.
Thanks,

Well I do 1 of 2 thing's when we arent busy:1. Play around the world with a four square ball and the movie return bucket.2. Play PS2 an all 5 T.V.'s in the store.But when its busy i bust my ass.-KY
I think that 1G's are far better looking and what i think is that guys shouldnt worry about looks (except for girls and twinkle toes) rather than the car having balls!!!
P.S. the 2g's look pregnant
Im right here with ya. I recieved my first ticket tonight, pisses me off. He didnt give me a speed or nothing it was called "SPEED RACING" WTF is that is the legislature trying to be hip? i was along side of a white Mazda ProtoGAY and he mashed going like 40 in a 25, so i throw it in 2nd gear...
