I am not experienced with ECU's at all so bare with me. Just curious if some pros could shine some light on this for me. This ECU I have that is out of a 1996 GST FWD Auto looks different than the other 2g ecu's I can find information on. I am pretty sure it is not an eprom but I am far from a...

This is not a thread about pulling the motor without the trans!!!!I have used the "search" and "google" and still can't find a decent writeup for this.This is in regards to a 1996 FWD AUTOMotor and trans is ready to come out and I'm looking to pull them both together. I have done...

I am looking for information on this stroker crank for a 2.2 stroker build in an automatic FWD? I'd like to hear from others that have ran this crank and what kind of internals they ran with it? I would like to build this stroker to withstand 800hp but realistically 600hp+. I say that because I...

I just thought I'd start a thread on the billet 11-blade 20g comp wheel. I just installed one today during a rebuild and upgrade. I don't see hardly anyone running anything different than the billet 6-blade so I thought I'd be different and go for the billet 11-blade. I'd like to hear from...

Hey. This is in regards to a Borg Warner GM-4 IHI that came off a 1995 diesel. Just curious if anyone has ran this turbo on their dsm? I got one in excellent condition for free but I don't know much about one of these being ran on a dsm and I can't find much info about people using them. I'm...

Just curious what you think about this and I'm sorry if this is not the right place for this but it does have to do with appearance.I went ahead and made a cover for my intercooler to protect it from being damaged by daily driving. I used wire mesh from the local hardware store. I was going...

I replaced my 1996 auto FWD axles and doing so of course made most of the fluid come out. What should I replace it with? What do you guys suggest I use and why?Thanks

Just curious if I should stick with the oem housing, or is there something better to use that bolts right up? Not sure if I will be running any oil feeds from there or not.

I am looking for the 2g VIS EVO style hood but not in carbon fiber. If anyone knows where to get one please let me know. I have searched everywhere and all I can find is the carbon fiber style.***EDIT***I've decided to go with the carbon fiber since that's all that is available for this...

Someone really needs to fabricate a V-band O2 housing for the HX35/40 BEP T3 Flanged housing, that will bolt up to downpipes with the 2 bolt flange. (Pretty much a standard DSM o2 housing but with the v-band instead of the 4-bolt) I'm sure I am not the only one that would like this to be...

First off, thanks for showing interest in my build. I've been puting this off since I joined the site so I figure I'll let you guys and gals know what's up on one of my builds.I bought a beautiful green 96 GST Automatic about a year ago for a low price of $2500 with only 102000 miles and it...

Not exactly sure where to post this so if this is in the wrong place, mt bad. I hear of people complaining about their motor mounts when drag racing these cars sometimes, so I am curious as to what motor mounts have been proven to work best for drag racing? This is in regards to an automatic...

Looking for information from people that have put their aftermarket tranny coolers between the radiator and their FMIC? The FMIC is bar-n-plate. Just curious how the performance of the cooler was being in that location? What size cooler were you using?Thanks!!!

Not sure where to post this but I'll try here.Just curious what people are using and having the best luck with when it comes to washers for the O2 housing? Are you using the same washers as you use for the turbo-to-manifold, or something else? I have always had the worst luck with o2 housing...

Hey there. I am looking for a TD05/06 20g internal wastegate. Pleases pm me with what you have.Thanks

I figured I'd put this here since it has to do with the interior. I am looking for an interior cargo cover. Preferably new or like new and not missing any pieces.If anyone knows of where to get one please ***PM*** me.Thanks Jon

I'm probably just thinking about this too hard but I'm also not an exhaust expert so I figured I'd ask.Dealing with flat flanges here. What is the best way to connect a 3" downpipe to a 2.5" cat-back? (Downpipe is cat-delete) Flanges being different sizes of course but the holes match up for...

Hey there everyone. Buddy of mine is looking for an affordable true 3" cat-back exhaust for his 97 GST. Many of the ebay listings are false and do not tell you that the piping is 3" O.D. and 2.6" I.D. or whatever inside. They all seem to taper down at the flange that connects to the cat...

Is there such a thing as an indestructable 7-bolt? (please read whole thread)Imagine having endless funds for this topic...Main purpose of this thread is to discuss what people believe is the most indestructable 2.0L build? (Not interested in talking about strokers, noz, meth, etc...) I...

Does anyone know of anyone that makes bolt-on alternators for the 2g that are high performance? Preferably above 100 amps. I'm not looking to relocate the alternator.Thanks

I have my eye on a few different hoods for my 2g but I really like the stock style hood on my GST. Does anyone know where to get a stock style hood that isn't steel or carbon fiber? Just trying to shed some weight and I will end up going with a carbon fiber hood if I can't find a light-weight...

I am currently in the process of redoing the complete suspension on my 2g but I am starting up front for now. I was curious if going with OEM parts (spindle, both lower control arms, upper control arm, tie rods,) is the best way to go for the coilovers I am going with? I hear the OEM parts are...

I have a 1996 GST with an auto transmission. My question is this and I would prefer replies from people that have experience with upgraded auto transmissions. (What are the smartest mods to do on the tranny to support 500whp?) I do not have much knowledge with these trannys because I choose not...

Thought I'd drop in and introduce myself. I've been working on DSM's (particularly 2g's) for the last 12 years. My specialty is customizing and building bigger turbo setups. It took me until this year to finally get one for myself and build it the way I want. Currently my 96 GS-T sits in my...
