I am in baltimore sadly :/

Have any 2ga awd trans?

Suprise suprise, an ebay turbo did not last. . .No you can't. You need to machine the CHRA.

Mike, the car looks badass as usual!! By far my favorite Galant!

Make sure you bleed those lifters! But there is some excellent advice in this thread. Bleed lifters, do a leak down test, and another comp test. I had a buddy recently bleed his lifters when he swapped in some 272's, cyl 1 only had 30psi compression. After bleeding the lifters, it went up to...

Lurks around the forums to find "easy fixes"

Told you so! lol

LOL yes he is! Get him Tony!!!

Im down for Irev!! Getting the new setup in the works now :)

Looks like the thrust was not seated properly.

^ BWAHAHAHAHA. I already gave him a head gasket :)

Damn this is such a BEAUTIFUL CAR!!!!!

At my work garage. . .. Its in parkville.

We can get a weekly meet going at the garage :)

I don't know you, but glad to hear you miss the good ol dsm's :). Nice GTO btw, I have ALWAYS been a fan of gto's, that is my soft spot for american muscle lol. . . Nice truck as well.

Was your flywheel properly stepped?

Yeah Chris, where at? The only dsm meet's that I know of, quite over a year ago lol.Although, there should be another started. . .

Bump!

Bump

You know it :)

Am looking for a set of 15" light weight rims, no bends/cracks and a set of slicks. Shoot me a price/pics. Thanks.

No clue, always possible but somehow doubt it :/. Only one person had it before me, and it was an elderly lady. Only had 48k miles on it.

Yeah, ive never had to replace any axle until this one. I do find it odd. Happen to know a "possible" cause? And yes it was all the way in the tranny (that's NOT what she said)

Jack, this was a OEM axle, not a cheap auto parts store one. . .

Damn!

Retaining clip is there, and axle was tight in the tranny.

Yes it is

So upon my clutch swap, noticed the splines on my front axle were "twisted". . . Too much torque is what I am guessing? What else can cause it?

I have seen worse. Polish it and call it a day. I have a buddy running ones much worse, with no issues. . .

Why in the post before your last one you only wanted $600, and next post is raising it $35? Wouldn't you lower it $35 instead of raising?

Working for me too. Clear your cookies and cache. . .

Ill go, after a quick retune :)

Sell the 16g and go with the 20g. And yes, if you got it second hand, I would recommend getting it rebuilt to for piece of mind. I mean, I don't know about you, but I hate redoing the same thing over and over again. Do it once, do it right.

Before jumping to conclusions. . . What kind/size of restrictor did you have?MHI turbo's do have to be restricted if feeding from the ofh with NO balance shafts. . .

I am at 14hg with my hks 272's.

Is it still slipping in boost?

Lol. Good thing I blocked ad's. . . Who know's what would have pop'd up on mine :)

Ive been using syncromesh since I bought my car 5 years ago. Trans shifts nicely, and no issues thus far. . .

Was a brand new clutch setup, perfect stepped flywheel (measured by my machinest, and me). IDK if it was just a bad disk, or it did NOT like the stroker, but it just did not like to bang gears or launch. Pull on pull it held great.Again, I am NOT dissing XTD, it is an excellent clutch for...

Here are some pics of my old XTD. . .Those weren't even the bad ones. One-2 pads had NO pads on them at all.This clutch only has 3-4k miles on it, and been to the track ONCE. Never dropped the clutch, but launched it correctly. It would not grab for sh!t. If I tried to shift faster...

I love my HKS 272's. Trapped 128 in the 1/4 on my setup with only 7* of timing though :/. Great all around power IMO.

Did you replace or shim your pivotball? Did you check the clutch fork? New tob? Where does the fork sit in the window on the tranny?Also for bleeding, use this method, its excellent and worked for me. Also remember to use ALL 4 bolts to hold the tranny to the block. Even the one in the...

^ Ill give you some info. . .The XTD is a great clutch for only $180 (I got it for $150 by talking to them).But it did NOT like launches, or "banging" gears. As soon as I let off that clutch it would not hold for sh!t. But from a couple wot pulls and shifting, it worked perfect. I have a...

I had my XTD trap 128 in the 1/4. HATED the launch though, would not shift for shit lol.But let me know how that act/xtd combo works out. . .

Any other advice? All new component's and it still drags at around 5.5-6k, and grinds everytime going into reverse (not releaseing 100%).

All splines are lubricated. As for putting the tranny on, it went on fine, but had to pull it out slightly so I can put the transfercase on, because my down pipe was in the way. But ive done that for years with no issues. (Not that I am ruling out a warped clutch disk).Am going to try your...

Yes as per jacks video. If I turn the rod anymore, it closes off the bleeder valve. When looking at the clutch assembly under the dash, what exactly do I look for for wear? I am going to try a new slave and re-reblead again (bled this damn thing soo many times already).

Ive never had this much trouble with a clutch before. . . huge pita. . .

Pedal is soft. Buy Tim zimmer stated that's how its suppose to feel.Slave looms good, still looks new.
