  1. Glowing manifold and no power.

    No compression on cylinder #2.Burnt or stuck valve? What you guys think?
  2. Glowing manifold and no power.

    OK. I checked the turbo, it has some shaft play, up and down. Its pretty noticeable, but it does spin freely. I doubt that was the problem. Would the shaft play decrease with the engine running and oil lubing the turbo? Not enough light to do anything else, it will have to wait till tomorrow...
  3. Glowing manifold and no power.

    The temperature never went up. It stayed below the halfway point at all times.Cannt wait till i get off work to check this thing out.
  4. Glowing manifold and no power.

    Just a little over 100 miles on it. What would cause the change in the timing? Could it be the timing belt tensioner? Cam sensor? I do have to note that when I pulled over the exhaust did rattle. I'm sure that it didn't do that when i test drove the car before I purchased it.Ill check the...
  5. Glowing manifold and no power.

    Hello Bought a 1g eagle talon earlier tonight. It drove just fine, no issues at all, and then all of a sudden it started to hesitate every time I gave it some gas. It started happening more and more until i couldnt drive it more. I had no place to pull over so I had to drive it as long as I...
  6. Oil Temperature Gauge

    Is it worth buying? Wouldn't the oil and water temperature in a healthy engine be about the same? Will it tell me anything that water temp gauge won't? How important is it to have it? Thank you.

  10. Caught two guys stealing my car.

    I did leave the spare key in the car. It wasn't in the sight tho. I cheap out on the insurance. It is why I'm asking if I can counter sue him for the damages to my ride.
  11. Caught two guys stealing my car.

    After coming back to the parking lot after a 1.5 hr jog on the mountain trail I saw two guys in my car doing donuts and running over a curb. I ran down to the car where they were trying to turn around. As they spotted me , the driver and passenger both jumped out and the driver ran. I went...
  12. 24psi on stock, Is my car ok?

    I am a retard for letting him take it. Had to take sleeping pills that night to fall asleep. Never again to anyone, as long as I am alive and my car is in one piece. Didn't get around to testing the cooling system, tomorrow I hope.:dsm:
  13. 24psi on stock, Is my car ok?

    Hey thanks very much for the replys. I checked the compression today at work. 155 all accross. Tomorrow I'll check the coolant system. I'll preassurize it and see how it holds? Since it gets dark fast i doubt I'll have any time to check for boost leaks. Car drives fine, other than ticking but...
  14. 24psi on stock, Is my car ok?

    I let a buddy take a car for a day. He ended up taking it for a 140mile trip. Once he got back he was telling how nice my car is this and that and how fast it is. Then he mentions to me that it starts to misfire around 4K. I take it for a spin to see wahts up and floor it in fifth and i see...

  17. 1g AWD swaybar

    Hello. First off I think it is important to say that I have searched, came up with 21 threads with no answers to my question.I'm looking to buy a rear sway bar for my 91 awd. From what I understand front is plenty good and there is no need to replace it. Now, certain sway bars will not...

  21. Exhaust manifold mounted external wastegate

    I still have few unanswered questions after searching through threads. I have an Evo III exhaust manifold and I am thinking of mounting the e. wastegate on #1 runner. I do have custom down pipe, O2 eliminator. Now the questions that I have are:Isn't it bad to mount it on a single runner...
  22. accurate oil press guage

    Mechanical. It goes straight to the source. But the idea of having oil run to your cabin might make you think twice.
  23. DO it Yourself tint? hot or not?

    Pretty easy to do. Although I never attempted to do hatch window, because it's curved. Your tint should come with instruction, I am a living proof that anyone can do tinting. Front and back windows should be no problems, I have done few cars and never had any bubble issues. I would leave the...
  24. installing uicp will i notice any difference?

    That's odd. Project car magazine claimed they gained around 15 hp with their SMIC piping on 1g dsm. Car was apparently dynoed as I remember. Never did like that magazine, talk down on dsm's and praise little honduhs.
  25. What parts from my 3000gt should I keep for a DSM

    :barf: :DAlso you might think about buying a 3000 gto in Canada as well. You can buy them for reasonable price. For example, a friend bought one with less than 100 XXX kilometers on it for 7K CAD. Not bad.All those listed parts will fit on a dsm. I found a fuel pump to be a good...
  26. 3.5 inch exhaust

    If your piping is press bent then you might think about going with 3.5" exhaust because the diameter of the pipe is smaller at the bend. If piping is mandrel bent then 3" will be plenty. even 3" press bent is good for most people, unless you are looking to go past 400whp mark.
  27. UPIC question

    Seeing that my car is stock right now, will 2.5" piping be too big. Will it create extra lag? I also plan in doing the following mods pretty soon. Ported evo III to 7cm Ported turbo housing 7 cm custom 3" O2 housing with external dump, still on internal wastegate, Custom 3" mandrel bent...
  28. Oil burning

    Ok, this is odd. My car seems to be burning oil. For example today, fon a 60 km trip I lost half of my oil.Other times ,on level surface, i can see that there is about half of my oil gone, then i fill it up. Check the next day there is a shit load of extra oil in there so i had to drain it. even...
