I finally got a Gst
but it needs a clutch bad
slip rite before you hit boost
haha its cool
its a red valve cover 4g63t with cyclone manifold
so i guess its vr4 version
i was wondering if all 4g63t clutches are the same??????

You would be correct sir all clutches are the same the only difference is the flywheel from the 6 bolt to 7 bolt obviously . You looking to just do a stock clutch

yes a oem clutch will
do ive never had a turbo
but i think that will do just fine
not really a speed demon

well this is a decent clutch I ran one for awhile and it ran flawlessly and its fairly cheap

does the fly wheel need to be stepped? for clutch install

Man this is in the hangout can't believe I'm answering a tech question here.

Yes the flywheel needs to be properly resurfaced and stepped, everytime you take the trans/clutch off, or install a new clutch you need to check the surface/ resurface the flywheel unless you are very drivetrain savvy.

I would reccomend checking out TMZ Performance
I will fully back any clutch they sell as they are one of the best vendors out there for drivetrains!

(And DSMtuners based!)

RRE's Clutch And Flywheel Tech Info

Read that, understand it well.

Make sure all your transmission bolts get back into the trans when everything is all said and done. Two on the top, one on the front, and a small one that threads through the back going from the DRIVERS side as opposed to the passenger side.

Make sure to get a new clutch fork, and make sure to get an OEM throw out bearing (all which can be ordered from TMZ)

You can shim your pivot ball if you choose to, but should not be necessary when using all new components. (info on that is at the bottom of the link I posted)

Make sure ALL of the dowels get back into the transmission/engine block. They are just little cylinders that align the transmission.

Don't forget to lube the end of the input shaft so it slides easily on your clutch, as well as properly align the clutch so that is is correct with the pressure plate.

Also, lube the inside of throw out bearing and make sure you install the TOB clip correctly, as this is very important (looks like a little paper clip)

Now may be a good time to replace the hydraulic lines for the clutch with a stainless line, as well as replace your slave and master with OEM components.

I would recommend running Penzzoil syncromesh in the trans, as it has treated me very well.

I would get new flywheel bolts and make sure to loctite red them and properly torque them down to your crank.


I might be forgetting something, but I already typed you more than enough information.

Good luck!

all ?s answered
thank you

Dropped the tranny and put it back
everything works............now with the other problems.
I <3 this car

Glad to hear! Good luck!

What kinda turbo is that on there? It doesnt appear to be a 14b or any kind of 16g either, I wonder if it's an automatic 13g one.

I believe it's a 13g as it's a tdo4 comp cover.

Yea its a 13g, im looking for a 14b due to the fact that its got 450cc injectors already
its spools at 2k rpms though.

thats hilarious

I dont like 1g's but that is clean. Theres a 5 spd 91 GSX on a local online classifieds for 1500 OBO need snew brake lines and a new Rad... heres the link

I would honestly check out the car first. Because when i was in the market for a 1g, I test drove
a 16g 91 gsx (really nice interior) but on the test drive, I spun a rod
That could of happened to me if i didn't test drive it first.

he didnt make you pay for the damage? I dont like test driving because I'm afraid to break thier stuff

But if it breaks on test drive it wasnt worth buying. Consider it a blessing.

I got lucky because he runs a local DSM shop around here, he just said it was "cool."
He told me to step on it, when we hit the highway..........................so ugh

Well thats cool, at least they didnt act like jerks and make you fix it or something. I'm not a fan of 1st Gens but I'm considered this AWD bad boy just to say I have one. I mean heck its AWD... its a DSM... it'll hold alot of power... AND I can get it for less than 1500 dollars.

Yes the GSX
has potential
I used to have a 420a and the 4g63t is just another animal.

If you don't like 1g's than I don't think you should get it. Try looking for a 2g GSX if that's more appealing to you or a Galant VR4.

i like the 1gs but thats me. AWD is where its at! You dont know launch until you ride in one. Its nice in a Jeep SRT 8 too . thats the only thing thats beat me in a dig. Nice car keep updating.
