Can a 2g 95 awd talon transmission work on a 1g 92 awd talon if the transfer case is kept from the 95 instead of using the transfer case off the 92? I know this question is kinda stupid but thanks for helping me outLuke:dsm:

Hmm well when i got my motor rebuilt and i put it in, i forgot to put the castle plug in. The castle plug is a little screw in piece on the oil pump that if you don't put it in, it will leak oil fairly fast. Its located on the oil pump and is in the lower right area of the oil pump. It looks...

Dude im so freagin jealous!!! Ive been wanting one of those forever, and you can pick it up for 500?!! Good find man, i got my nonrunning talon for 1000 lol

My cousin has a 90 talon and he had to cross the wires as you did to run the 92 ecu in his car but he didn't have to change anything else. So yes im sure the car will run, you just won't have a tach Luke

Yes when we hooked it up to the battery directly it turned on, a nice little whine. It is harder to hear a stock one though. Luke:dsm:

Well i was pretty confident that there wasn't anymore of that garbage in the line, but you could be right..... ive had so much crap go wrong with this car nothing suprises me any longer lol. I guess i could recheck the line, or just get a stainless braided line made for cheap. Luke:dsm:

Heres the deal at the moment my car won't start, there isn't any fuel getting to the injectors. A few weeks ago i ran it down the block and back after it was sitting for about a year, then parked it and it died. So i did the normal diagnosis procedure and found that there wasn't any fuel getting...

My cousin got that anjusa from Jackson and its doing fine... when the dsm runs lol. I got my head gasket from http://www.ffwdconnection.com/ I got the self sealing gasket. Supposedly its really good, and mine hasn't leak yet. Luke

Look if you don't want to put in the topline then go oem, if you want to put in the topline then do that, but i honestly wouldn't put my old oil pump on after a rebuild. Thats just asking for trouble later down the road. Im not saying that people don't get a lot of miles before the original goes...

There are many posts about this subject. But from what i've seen there are more people who choose oem oil pumps than topline. As long as you lube up the gears before you try and run it you should be fine. Just for fyi i got an oem pump. :dsm:

The only things i can think of that would cause you not to have spark is: wires, plugs, transistor pack, coil pack, maybe your cas is screwed, or ecu. But there may be others that have had this problem. My cousin is actually and we still haven't figured out whats goin on luke

If youre not getting spark and its not your cas or coil pack, it could be your transistor pack. I didn't have spark and i changed all my plugs wires my cas and coil pack. The transistor pack was bad.

I didn't check the vaccuum yet, but after messing with the fuel pump i found out it wasn't that. I thought since i had the maf-t and maf on there instead of stock mas air i would unplug it and try to start it. When i did this the car started right and idled very rough idle but it didn't die out...

I checked my pcv valve and everything looked ok. I took it off and blew threw it and turned it around and couldn't blow back into it so i think that is ok. All four cylinders are firing and when i hooked up the logger no engine codes came up.When the car is running (while im giving it gas)...

Thats freagin sweet, the only mod like that i have done is when i took out my ac and in the place of the ac switch i embedded my in cockpit boost controller Who needs ac when youve got boost? lol :thumb:

Hmmm did you blow a fuse? check out http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=217951 It should help you narrow down your search for whats wrong. :thumb:

I first bought his car knowing it had problems. When i got it i knew it had blew out the head gasket but didnt know it had piston no 2 or 3 melted. It had started even with the melted piston but ran like crap and quite frankly it died after a few seconds. After finding out the grim news i had my...

Makes me want to break out my old nes gun and start shooting. I never seem to get passed round 4 lol.I just got done playing rampage mode.... tought those mother duckers a freakin lesson!!!! Freagin sweet

If it is illegal in your state, you could always fab up some gauge bezels that fit in your vent or something. I mean our cars are easy to do simple and most of the time unneeded modifications to. An example is my cousin and i taking out the ac, and the ac button and installing the boost...

I voted no because i to like the oem look. However i would bet all the money that i had, if you show this to other guys that like body kits and what not that they would love it. Its creative and the color is fine, but to most dsmers its a little much.Luke

Well the spec stage 2 clutch is supposed to hold up to 400 i believe. Im sure your stage three could hold up fine if you would actually put something on your car that made it a little quick lol. The stage 3 would be good for that, and if youre not sure you could always get the stage 3+ or stage...

Sorry bout that, i didn't think the manifold was an upgrade to put into the profile. Yeah i would like to buy dsmlink sometime soon, because i already have an eprom ecu. Ultimately what ill end up doing (this is in order) is buy my tuning software, intercooler, fuel mods, turbo, then cams. Im...

I already have a gt manifold from turbochargers.com :thumb: wildeclipse2000 somewhere on this board i remember shep saying that the vr4 first gear wasn't that much different than our first gear. Do you know why it would bog more? I have a spec flywheel and its pretty much the same weight as a...

I can get my paint job for roughly 2000 give or take a few hundred because im keeping my stock color. For some reason the teal color is starting to look really good to me especially when i put in black leather seats. There aren't many 1gb's that are teal with black leather seats which is a plus...

Thanks for the advice guys :thumb: i think im going to try and find a used shep or tre stage 3 tranny or shell out additional cash and get mine rebuilt. Either way ill have a brand new motor/tranny and paint. I can hardly wait, its been such a long time since ive seen a really nice dsm rolling...

This is a good idea but im always worried about how the other person treated their used parts. I like the satisfaction that i know how the transmission has been treated since ive had it, because who knows how the other person treated it. Is there any way to tell if a tranny is bad just from...

Yeah one of my friends got the stage two from tre, they sent his transmission straight to his door, and even sent him a box to ship it out with they really do have great customer service. Should i go with the stage two for what i want or just splurge on the stage 3? Thanks for the advice guys...

Ok heres the deal, Im getting paid 3700 at the end of the month. I'am just now getting my motor which is a race build with ross pistons and manley rods out of the shop.(Its already been paid for) My question is should i get a transmission from shep/tre or get go fast parts. First off i don't...

:dsm: I always thought that it didn't matter if it were a 7 bolt or 6 bolt when ordering a clutch? Am i wrong about this?Luke

I would port because everyone that i have known has had boost creep with their evo3 turbo's.

If cost is the main concern and you have not yet purchased the pistons i would stick with the 1g pistons. 100 dollars a rod is an awful lot of money, for that you could go forged lol. Seriously though the 1g pistons are just as good as the 2g pistons they are the same thing except for...

Dude, when working on these cars you take 1 step forward and 2 steps backwards. If like me you'll be pulling that turbo more than just a few times just to play around with things to try and make it spool faster. The easiest way for this boost creep issue is just to port your turbo, manifold, and...

The normal people on here turn it up to around 15-16 psi when they don't have fuel mods and a sidemount. But every car is different, like my friends old talon. He turned it up to 18 psi on a stock fuel and a sidemount and had no nock. So basically get a datalogger for cheap from the classifieds...

haha haven't heard that in a long while. The wheels don't look too shabby, personally i either like black with a polished lip or the way they came.

Yeah, my cousin about punched me in the face when i told him what i posted. Aparently the turbo we compared the 13g to wasn't off the talon. ROFL

Hey man even the wisemen are here to learn more on this site. There is no such thing as a stupid question. We learn something new about these cars everday, i bet everybody can remember when at some point they didn't know jack about these cars. So don't feel bad for asking questions that you...

Hey man if you are going to spray paint your fmic for the sleeper look go for it, if you are like me and like the look of the intercooler looking sexy on the front of your lady then keep it polished. It's your choice and its always easy to remove paint if you don't like it.

Coolant could be low, the thermomostat could be bad perhaps?

Totally agree. Seriously, im not expert when it comes to pulling off the manifold but holy crap have i broken some bolts that are just a pain the a** because you have to go buy new ones. If they were stainless they wouldn't have rusted. Well okay after 15 years the might lol.

Well sir im not completely sure about his however; I believe the reason your engine rpm's rise when you engage the clutch is so the engine won't stall out. Think about it if the engine is at the same rpm that it engages at then that means you would have to accelerate (or push on the gas pedal)...

Hey man im not an expert especially at 5:40 in the morning however i honestly don't know of a way to check the bearings and rings unless you tear the motor you want to look at apart. If there is still cross hatching on the side of the cylinder walls then you are probably fine; however i may get...

Yeah you could do a jdm swap however for the price you can rebuild your motor. You can piece together your motor or buy a kit. Slowboy sells the topline kit for 500 i think and then all you have to do is get it machined and put it together. Recondition your rods and put some arp bolts in them...

Many people complain about topline and many people don't. Im not going to say they are crap because there a many people using that rebuild kit and working just fantastic, and im not going to say they are the best because other people have had trouble with them. You could always go the oem route...

This is true however you will have a harder time of tuning the 9:1 than the 8:5. Also you would be able to raise the boost a little more and be able to tune it easier using the 8:5. Don't get me wrong there are tons of people that use 9:1 and do great, its just easier to tune 8:5 on high boost...

My cousin used to work at advance auto parts. Have you ever seen felpro gaskets for our cars? I would never run a felpro gasket let alone a head gasket. Im not criticizing you for saying that you would use one, but they are only 45 dollars at the dealer. But i guess if you need a quick fix that...

I know this may sound stupid but what color was the smoke? Black, grey, white? The color of the smoke can indicate whether the turbo is blown, headgasket is blown, rings are no good in motor ect ect... However after you remember what color the smoke was do a search to see what the problem is as...

2g pistons are 8:5:1 pistons, also something to thing about is that higher compression pistons may give you more torque; however the lower compression pistons allow you to run higher boost applications. You still get the same amount of horsepower with either piston.Lukeedit: i didn't see...

:dsm:Crazy skier is right, basically for a few hundred more dollars you can build your own long block and use oem parts instead of oem like parts. Hey i even have a mitsu full engine gasket set, not just the top end the whole long block with crush washers and everything, and i got it for...
