  1. 1G 4th gear bearing sleeve differences? (early 90/late 91-99)

    Thank you very much. Exactly what I needed to know. I appreciate the response. Looking forward to gettting this thing back on the road.
  2. 1G 4th gear bearing sleeve differences? (early 90/late 91-99)

    Hello, I am currently attempting to swap a 3/4 faceplated gear setup from an early 90 input shaft to an 91-99 input shaft, and had a question about the 4th speed gear bearing sleeve. The difference that I see is related to the oil feed on the input shaft. The newer input shaft has the oil feed...
  3. SOLD OUT Laser Cut Valve Cover Baffles SOLD OUT

    Been waiting on this too, perfect timing. Payment sent!
  4. Intake Port Dynamic Pressure - High Speed Data on Kiggly Racing Drag car

    I have long been interested in the ability to monitor combustion pressures on live data. I am sure that having access to this information is a lot of fun to work with. I am curious as to what type of sensor you are using, and its location. What seemed to be the best solution that I have come...
  5. my first exhaust build (pie-cut, divorced wastegate, turbo-back 3",v-band)

    Thanks for the replies everyone. I have since borrowed my neighbors belt sander. I have not had the chance yet to take the exhaust off and see how it goes. I'm currently in the middle of a bilstein/hyperco coilover set-up, so that should be finished here in the next month or so. I'll be starting...
  6. my first exhaust build (pie-cut, divorced wastegate, turbo-back 3",v-band)

    Thanks. For the length and angle of pie cuts, I went through the arduous task of doing each bend individually and in order of front-to-back, using the equations:L=[(2*CLR)+D]*[sin(angle)] ; angle=bend angle/(2*N)CLR=center line radius D=diameter of tube L = Length of long side of pie...
  7. my first exhaust build (pie-cut, divorced wastegate, turbo-back 3",v-band)

    Thank you. I did pick up some stainless sheet to make heatshields in case I needed them. I would assume that it would be most effective if the heat shield was mounted onto the pipe itself and not the alternator, correct? I'll have to look into how I'm going to fab that up. Thanks.
  8. my first exhaust build (pie-cut, divorced wastegate, turbo-back 3",v-band)

    I had originally planned to wrap it. I had ordered a roll of wrap with the initial build purchase. I read a bit more on the subject during the build, and decided not to wrap it, just installed it the way you see it. I had heard stories about the wrap trapping moisture during the heating and...
  9. my first exhaust build (pie-cut, divorced wastegate, turbo-back 3",v-band)

    Thank you. Yeah, the wastegate entry angle is not ideal, I do realize that. When I was coming up with the design, I wanted to make sure that I didn't have to drop the downpipe every time I wanted to drop the transfer case. So that put the first v-band in that location, and that was as shallow of...
  10. my first exhaust build (pie-cut, divorced wastegate, turbo-back 3",v-band)

    Greetings everyone. I have recently finished my first exhaust build with my Hobart Tigmate using 304 stainless. It was my first experience welding stainless, and I chose to do pie-cut because I like the way it looks, and also for the welding practice. (ALOT of welding!) I am really pleased the...
  11. welded, cleaned, rebuilt two LEFT trailing arms on accident...advice? suggestions?

    Hello, I was unsure of where I should post this concern, but I am looking for help or suggestions since I have a unique problem. I am currently in the process of modifying my suspension all around on my 91 talon awd. I am attempting to complete this on my daily driver, so I have been...
  12. Evolution VIII & IX suspension on 1G, shock travel...

    I have been researching some things for an upgrade to the suspension on a 1G AWD. I have seen a number of vr-4 guys, and some on this forum who have adapted the Evolution VIII and IX suspension...I saw that the compressed length of a factory replacement strut for the 1G AWD is 10.3", and I saw...
  13. 2nd annual Texas DSM shootout?

    I remember last year attending the 1st annual texas DSM shootout, and I have not been able to find any information on a shootout this year. Was hoping someone in the area could shed some light on this situation. Is there not going to be one?
  14. Detect knock before your knock sensor can.

    I actually made one of these setups a little over a year ago, and I use it to detect knock in conjunction with my MSII megasquirt fuel management system. I even have the jack able to go directly into my radio head unit, and I can hear the knock sensor through my speakers in my car, or have the...
