Interested in everything, really admire that this community is still putting out new parts for our not-so-new cars.It sounds as if your tubular subframe is intended to replace (most) of the factory trailing arms. Beyond the logistics of getting those to you to modify, it would also limit my...
So everyone knows, I am not using the GC kit. I am using the discontinued and difficult to find 1G AWD Koni rears and the discontinued and not so difficult to find Eibach Pro Kit, resulting in an upgraded and lowered strut and not a hybrid-type coilover.Talonsnwbrdr, I hadn't previously seen...
I've looked through the VFAQs, haven't seen anything concerning installing Konis actually meant for the 1G. The 2G Koni/GC in a 1G guide doesn't readily mention anything about these pieces. For clarity, I'm using the 8040-1129Sport shocks and Eibach Pro Kit springs. I'll be trimming the...
This stuff came in a bag with some 1G rear Konis I was able to source from a vendor on eBay Australia. Pretty costly too, but I figured they were worth the investment. I took my stock rear strut off and have disassembled it. A couple pieces in this kit didn't look familiar from the get-go...
Holy thread resurrection. But you already realize that. When I first considered having to combat a peeling dash, Gorilla Glue was my first thought. The holes he mentioned are a good idea. If anything's going to work, it's that. May want to PM him, as he may not see your post here otherwise...
Those aren't as bad as I thought. Grade 11... hard, but brittle... but hard! I'd honestly hit each of them with a propane torch for about 30 seconds, pound a 6-point 17mm socket onto them, make sure the flywheel can't move, obviously, and crank on it with the longest breaker bar you can muster...
I haven't seen a 1G for sale at a dealership in over a decade. That was on eBay, never in person. I've seen a few 2G's over the past couple years. There was a nice silver GSX going for what I'd considered a steal at one point... mmm, if I'd only had a trailer, or enough money to rent one and...
Some heat and the Craftsman Bolt-Out tools you mentioned would be the first thing I tried. Note that there's an impact grade version of those tools, since you mentioned using one of those. I primarily use hand tools and thus only have their regular, low profile version. The flywheel bolts are...
What kind of shocks do you have? Most options available for us in the OEM replacement/bolt-on category are killed in short order by springs like that... actually probably 90% or more are snuffed out early by Sportlines alone. Yours may already be gone. If so, you'll want to replace them, despite...

I've finally gotten around to doing this with my car and was directed here by the OP's post on another forum. Where/can I get the aluminum bushing pictured above? I'd like to have a set for the next time I have them off and definitely don't have a machine to make them myself. This install would...
For future reference, I talked to Marty at Raxles a few weeks ago and he said that they no longer produce DSM axles due to a lack of demand causing it to be impractical to import the parts he uses in bulk from Europe. This made me very sad, I trusted him to give me a product with quality...
The pictures are not of authentic Auto Meter products to the best of my knowledge. A real one from the Carbon Fiber series would look like this.Edit: Check the classifieds on this site, or try eBay to get a better price on an Auto Meter or other high quality gauge.
It also reminds me of the late 90s-early 2000 Camaros. Catfish, hooo!I like them all, by the way. The 2Gb and 3kGT are just too similar for me to be able to justify messing with either one. The Evo X bumpers are quite interesting on DSMs though. Looks slicker on a 2G, makes the 1G look...
What I'd like to know is how he took the front axles out. The driver side would stay plugged if he left the center shaft in, but a missing passenger side axle would leave the transmission open and let a good amount of your oil leak out. Not to mention burning up the aforementioned viscous...
