  1. anybody know of any Galant forums?

    Hey guys, my buddy might be getting a 94 Galant GS, just wondering if anyone knew of any galant forums, i couldnt seem to find any. The GS's were only made in 94, have a 2.4 DOHC, 160hp, moonroof, loaded interior. Later guys
  2. What in the hell just happened?

    i had kinda the same thing happen to my tercel a while back. part of the gasket for the timing belt cover broke off and got stuck in the belt and it threw off the timing. good luck!
  3. Iv located a 2nd gen 4g63t engine with 32k miles for $2500...

    I think dave thought you meant the whole car for $2500. in that case, hell yeah, jump on that. But 2500 for just an engine, NOOOOOO. It would cost you a lot more than that to install that engine in your n/t. YOu can find a good condition, running1G for that price, or for a few hundred more, you...
  4. Are all Laser RS's AWD???

    Laser = 1.8 L Laser RS = Eclipse GS Laser RS-Turbo = Eclipse GST Laser RS-Turbo AWD = Eclipse GSX:thumb:
  5. So I'm buying this GSX off Ebay...

    Hey man, looks pretty nice. Where in CT you from? I'm from Southington. Good luck with the car, later.
  6. Launching out of 2nd gear??

    hey, why not just launch in 5th gear? theres absolutely NO WAY you would burn out, plus you wouldnt have to do all the 1-4 shifting!
  7. Going to look at 95 tsi tomorrow, any advice?

    Thanks guys, anyone else have any input?
  8. Going to look at 95 tsi tomorrow, any advice?

    Hey guys, im going to look at a 95 TSI awd tomorrow. 189k on the odometer, but he says the engine has 180psi on all 4 cyls, thinks it mightve been replaced. Says no shaft play in turbo. Trans shifts good, says it probably replaced, its shiny, a lot cleaner than engine. AWD, 5spd, grey, leather...
  9. 1st gen turbo unit VS. 2nd gen turbo unit ?

    but... 25 is a bigger number than 14... bigger numbers means it will go faster right???:confused:;)
  10. Can I get ABS ?

    A little expensive, but it works:thumb:
  11. Hey guys. About to get a 91 TSI need som help

    Hey, yes, you are right and your dad is wrong. Only differences are like the taillights and the bumpers. Oh, and the talons were around for just as long as the 1G and 2G eclipses were, except 99. But $5G for a 1G seems like kinda a lot, especially if its not running properly. Good luck.
  12. Which car should I buy?

    Toyotas typically are more reliable than Nissans. The NX is probably a tad bit quicker. the nissan's hatchback would make for a good sound system. Drive them both, compare the miles on the engine, see which one you like the looks, feel, and the interior, then base your decision off that...
  13. Manual 1g to Auto Conversion [Merged 1-9]

    MrP, yeah, but he wants to do the conversion on a non-turbo. I would say just leave it a stick man, so much more fun.
  14. gas mileage

    it will save you a very little bit, as you are maintaining a certain speed, not constantly slowing down and accelerating again.but one more question: how does cruise control work with a standard tranny? the only cruises i've ever used have been on autos.
  15. best wax?

    Hey, i just waxed mine this afternoon actually, lemme check...the stuff i used is in an orange bottle its called Nu-Finish, my dad has had in the garage for quite a long time now - the bottle says 1992 on the back. so yeah, um, anyone else?
  16. what to use to remove duct tape goop from car?..

    probably a bad idea, probably get a bunch of replies telling you NOT to do this... but i used a little mineral spirits on a rag to get some sticker residue off my tercel.but from what i've heard, goo-gone is the shist. good luck.
  17. DSM car and forum Newbie

    hey, i found a crankwalked 95 tsi awd, 5sp, loaded, 105K, great condition body, right near me for $2800... but by the time i emailed the guy it was already sold, dammit! :mad:anyways, good luck with the car, later
  18. Where can I get a black center console

    you can try ebay... or your local junkyard. if you want really cheap, as in free cheap, sneak in to the junkyard when theyre closed and help yourself! ...oh, i didnt just tell you to do that :shhh:, nor have i ever done that myself :thumb:
  19. How much would you pay for this TSI?

    Dammit, i emailed the guy, it was sold already! :mad:...the search continues...
  20. Turbo recomendations please

    Dude, um... 400-500 hp isnt an easy target to hit. I believe the 16G is good for like up to 350 or something. But youd need a lot more work than just the turbo to get there. But think realistically here... just when are you going to need 400-500hp?
  21. How much would you pay for this TSI?

    1995 TSI AWD, 5speed, leather, moonroof, power everything, 105k on a crankwalked motor, completely stock, body/interior in real good shape, only thing is a few road chips in the front of the hood that are rusting.Asking 2800... how much would you guys pay?Thanks
  22. I Need To Lleeeaarnnn

    make sure you look out for talon TSI's and eclipse GSX's as well. The GSX is all wheel drive turbo, and the talon TSI is the exact same car as the eclipse, comes in both fwd and awd, and talons tend to be a bit cheaper. good luck
  23. How Long Can I Drive...with no Alternator?

    you could always pop-start it... or would tha t be a bad idea on an AWD?
  24. Acronyms

    i believe DL = deluxe, TSI = turbo sport injection
  25. TSI or GS-T

    talons tend to have a cheaper resale value, because they dont have the bishi name. but as far as performance aftermarket, one fits both. the only aftermarket that i can think of that might differ would be altezza lights, the eclipse ones wont fit the talon... but then again, you wouldnt want...
  26. doing engine swap need tips

    i dont know about the tranny, but i believe the motor mounts are diffferent. you would need to do custom welding and stuff like that. not only that, but wiring your gauges, your ECU, etc... and then maybe a new transmission, etc... i dunno, im sure its been done, but it would be a lot of work...
  27. rebuild crankwalked engine?

    well i was just wondering if i would be able to rebuild the crankwalked engine. I think that would probably be the cheaper option, rather than buying a 1G engine, and then rebuilding that. I think i would want to rebuild whatever engine i get, because 1) it would be a daily driver, and the...
  28. what to look for in a 1G AWD DSM....

    the 90s had weaker trannies and a longer shifter, right?
  29. Ignition Starter Button...

    where does the wire lead to? follow it and see if you can figure out anything from there. good luck
  30. rebuild crankwalked engine?

    I have been looking for a high mileage/blown engine 1G for cheap to rebuild as a summer project. But Ive found a 95 that has walked for pretty cheap. I didnt know if it was possible to just rebuild the engine thats in it? Or is the engine too f'ed and its better to get a new one? If i got a new...
  31. just saying hey....

    Hey, good to see another Yota man here. Ive got a 94 tercel. Im in search of a dsm for a summer project though. I'm on the celica.net forum too, havent been there in a while though. Catch ya later man-
  32. 6 bolt motors?

    hey, 4g63's built before may of 92 are 6 bolts. You can tell by feeling the oil pan, one has a dent and one bulges out, check vfaq for that. the 6 bolts arent necessarily "better", but they have stronger rods, so they can handle more power. But unless you plan on making over like 350 hp, your...
  33. 1g vs 2g turbo(awd or not)

    "better car overall" - it all depends what yore looking for, man. if you asked, which is the better car, a civic or a corvette. if you want a cheap, reliable, fuel efficient car then the civic is better. if you want a bigger, faster car then the vette is better... look at the posts above and...
  34. Anyone else learned stick on their dsm?

    I learned on my 94 tercel, with its good ol "Four on the floor" tranny. And Ive taught at least 5 of my friends how to drive that car too... wow, no wonder why its slowly dying on me...
  35. 1st Gen DSM AWD or 2nd gen rx-7?

    Hey guys, thanks for the responses. Haha, here the DSM is winning 13-4... on the rx7 forum the rx7 is winning 27-8... go figure. But im still lookin for the DSM. Theyre a lot more common around here and i think they look better. And with the New England winters, the AWD will definitely help...
  36. 1st Gen DSM AWD or 2nd gen rx-7?

    Hey guys, Ive been thinkin about a 1st gen DSM as a summer project for a while now. What i'd want to do is get one with a blown engine/high miles for like $1500 or less and rebuild that. I also recently just thought of the second gen (86-92) rx-7s too, probably the turbo TII. Theyre pretty...
  37. Need Info Fast!

    Cheapest way, um... Drive it there?find a friend with a trailor, and borrow it, then find another friend with a truck with a trailor hitch and borrow that too
  38. Some guys in Probes are d!cks!

    the probes are the same car as the mazda mx6, and the 89-92 GT's come with a 2.2L turbo. Stock only like 145 hp though. My uncle's got one, doesnt drive it much though.oh, and about the title...some probe owners are dicks... yes, but some dsm owners are also dicks, some honda owners are...
  39. aftermarket tach

    well, you could always pull off the needle and resposition it so its working right...
  40. ECU = Dead, how much...

    My recommendation? Go to a junkyard, find a 90 AWD, remove the ECU, put it in your pocket, and walk out... Oh, i didnt just tell you to do that, nor have i ever done anything like that...
  41. stick or auto??

    Hey, my tercel only has a 4-speed manual and id still rather have that than an auto. Everyone that i've taught how to drive my car and everyone that i know that has switched from an auto to a stick doesnt want to go back. haha, and teaching your girlfriend how to drive it can be kinda fun...
  42. FINALLY got a dsm!

    nice, good luck!
  43. Torque ?

    Hey, its different when you have a 1.6 non turbo engine compared to a 2.0 turbo. Theres not as much exhaust, and a smaller exhaust will help it flow faster, rather than with 3" piping the exhaust will cool quickly and cooler gases move slower. I have a tercel with a 1.5L, most people with...
  44. first mod

    ...or you could just stay off the boost for the last 2 minutes or your drive...
  45. Dual exhaust [Merged 7-9]

    no no no, he bought the car and the previous owner installed it, hes asking if he should keep it or not. Do whatever you want man, if it looks decent and you like it, why not?
  46. gsx.....gst......

    Here's a question... How many people have gotten a FWD and wished they had AWD? now... How many people had gotten AWD and wished they had a FWD?wait for a good AWD, you wont regret it later. Good luck.
  47. What years DSMs have airbags?

    Hey, just curious, what year did the DSMs first come with airbags? Both driver and passenger side?
  48. lookin at a 92 tsi awd

    How is the 92 tranny stronger? What years is the tranny different, stronger/weaker? As far as i know, all the trannies are the same. The 90s have different shifters, but i thought that was it. Thanks.
  49. Are 240SX fast?

    Hey, my buddy has a 93 240sx. I beat him with my 1.5L, 82hp tercel. I had him by like 2 carlengths after about 300 yards. :DNow granted, this was about a year ago, when his engine was seriously f'ed up, obviously, since i was able to beat him like that. I think he rebuilt it since then...
  50. mitsu is STUPID!!!

    A new car built by my company leaves somewhere traveling at 60 miles per hour. The rear differential locks up. The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, then...
