I've done a little searching and have not found any place nearby - wondering if anyone can recommend an alignment shop in or around Sac that would be willing to align to non-factory specs and corner balance.I know of shops in Sonoma, Castro Valley, and Mountain View, but would really like to...

(1) Walbro 190lph GSS278
(2) Evo IX Fuel Pumps, Denso 195130-3570I'm located in South San Jose and work in San Carlos. I can meet...
Trying to get some stuff out of the shed that I know i'll never need. Located in South San Jose. For the price of Free, I do not deliver. :)First up, a grey dash in decent shape from a 96 GSX that I picked up as a parts car for an AWD swap on my old GST. Miss that car. :(Next I...
I have a 1G Fluidyne Radiator for sale for $150. Located in South San Jose.Picked this up a while back but never installed it as I decided not to use a 1G radiator on my GVR4.
I just put a new TRE AWD transmission converted for use on a FWD on my 99GST and my flywheel inspection cover does not entirely enclose the bottom of the bellhousing. Where an AWD transfer case would normally bolt up is now an opening where I can reach up and grab my flywheel. Will this be a...
Not even a year after getting rid of the 2G and I now find myself with a '91 GVR4. ??? of 2000. The badge is missing, and from what I hear a previous owner turned it into a belt buckle.It's driveable, but needs a good amount of work before I'll be happy with it. I'm switching over...
To start this story off, I recently picked up a non-running GSX that I will be using parts from for my AWD conversion. The condition of the car was non-op, ricey, and missing a few things here and there. For the price I picked up the car, it was going to be easier for me to make my money back...
So I'm replacing the lower lateral control arm on my 2G (yes, I know it's a recall item, but it's been done before), and everything is back together for the most part. I'm stuck on the very last nut. The nut the sits atop the ball joint and attaches it to the knuckle. When I try and tighten...
Let me first start off by saying that I have not put forth much of an effort on troubleshooting the issue below yet due to time. I'm posting the little bit of info and observations I have made in an attempt to compile a list of things to look into. So please, if there is anything anyone can...
I found myself home on a friday night with nothing to do and thought it would be a perfect opportunity to start putting together a custom display for my LC-1 wideband. Of course I already had this planned and bought the parts from eBay.If anyone is interested, here's what you'll need.Mini...
So I'm curious...Let's say that one of the rubber bushings on the end of one of my shift cables was pretty torn up and allowed for some play. Would it be possible that it could make it a little more difficult to find 1st and 3rd gear? If so, which cable would it be that would cause such a...
So, my 99GST is currently being punished. It's been parked in the garage for a few days now while I wait for my new transmission to show up. Anyway, I went out to start it up this evening to move it and when I started it up, the car ran really rough, like it was running on three cylinders...
So I took my car to the dyno today for the first time ever. First pull was way off the chart rich. So naturally I started pulling out some fuel...That brings me to why I'm posting here. I have a dsmchip/keydiver stage3 chip in my 99GST setup for my FIC 650's and to display knock using...
I'm trying to order a couple of interior pieces and trim in black from satan. However, they apparently can't (or won't) look up these pieces that I want in black unless I supply them with a VIN# from a 2G car with the all black interior. So, if anyone has a 99 2G with the all black interior...
Anyone else having problems with these? I can't control any car on dirt or ice worth a damn. It's rediculous. No fun at all. I'm getting beat by ####y little 80hp cars cause I can't do anthing but drive sideways. Doesn't matter what car I use or what settings I tweak. It's always the same...
I recently had a fuel related issue arise, so today I went and installed a B&M fuel pressure gauge (the one the mounts atop the fuel filter) so that I could monitor what's going on.My question is, how long should fuel pressure remain constant after the car is shut off? Will it eventually...
I think I may have a leaky injector(s). On friday I put some FIC 650's in the car, and since then the car has been difficult to start. Have to crank it for a little while before it starts. Same exact feeling as when there is little to no fuel pressure which is why I'm assuming that I have a...
Ok, I have the 97-99 style front end. I plan on cutting out the black part on the opening in the center of the front bumper.My question is, will cutting out that part of the bumper reveal the bumper support? I haven't removed the front bumper yet so I don't know, but in feeling around it...
Anyone here have a black FMIC? How did you do it? Paint, anodize? If paint, what did you use? Pics would be nice too if anyone has any. :)Thinking about coloring mine black, just not sure yet. I don't think I want to attract the attention that a big azz shiny FMIC will attract.
So it was a bit warm out today and I was cruising around with the AC on when I noticed something while sitting at a red light. My vacuum reading was at 15. Turn AC off, back up it goes to 18. AC on again, and down it goes. Is this normal? I don't recall noticing this before, but then again...
So after looking through vfaqs and what not, it's my understanding the the timing marks on the cam gears should line up pointing at each other... So anyway, I had my timing belt cover off and something looked a little strange to me. My marks are like 180 degress off or parallel with each...
So before I go screw with things in the dark, I figured I'd ask here first...My power steering belt is squeaking. Just started requently with the weather getting wetter and colder around here. I'm positive it's that belt because well, it sounds like it's that belt :p, and if I grab it...
Wheeeee! That was fun. Just had a 6.5 magnitude earthquake near San Luis Obispo, CA and I got to ride the waves up here near SF.http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Quakes/nc40148755.htm
So ever since I installed my boost/vac guage it has always read 18in hg (+/- 1) when idleing. However, lately when I go out and start up the car in the morning it reads 15in hg while idleing, then after a 30min freeway cruise to work it's back at idleing around 17-18in hg, occasionally dropping...
So I found a nice looking tubular o2 housing made of 16 guage mild steel. I guess my question or concern is, is there any reason that I would not want it to be made from mild steel? Should I find something made from stainless steel instead? The only thing that I know is that it can/will rust...
99 gst, 5 speed.Ok, this is something I noticed not too long ago and it didn't seem right to me. Had the car up on stands and I started it up to check somethin out. Of course the car was in neutral, but I noticed that the front wheels began to start spinning slowly while the car was just...
So when I crank the wheel to the left or right and turn slowly (5-10mph) I can hear a sort of cracking/crackling sound coming from the front of the car. I'm sure it probably happens at higher speeds as well, it's just that everything is louder then and I probably just can't hear it. Also, the...
