    Newbie chic with tranny issues?

    Did my clutch back in march and had the same issue. It drove great but slipped at times. We adjusted the pedal and I haven't had an issue since. Good luck!

    Junk yards with dsm parts?

    We Got Used You can search their inventory. From what I searched Allentown and Pennsburg don't have any. West Hazelton has an ok selection but they don't tell you the model. For eclipse they have (6) 95-99 and (1) 1990. For talons they have (1) 1996 and (1) 1991.

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    I did a compression test had 0 on 2 cylinders and right around 155 on the other 2. I kind of figured I would have a few issues after that but the only way to tell is to tear it down. When I get to the shop tomorrow I'll take a few pics and put them up.

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    hmm.... I can't find a connector for the 97-99 CAS so I am going to stick with the 95 cas considering it will still bolt right up. I pulled the cylinder head off and found that the cylinder wall on one is scored.... so now deciding whether or not to give it a shot a the machine shop or look for...

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    I just want to make sure I have done my research and have this correct. Now I found locally a cylinder head off a 99 GSX for $150 (couldn't pass it up) no bent valves, came with the cams/ cam gears, intake manifold and all sensors. Including the 99 CAS. To get the 99 CAS to work in my 95 all I...

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    So got all the timing stuff done just waiting for a new crank gear (cog) and then we will have our moment of truth with the 95 gsx . after i got it apart i found a few minor issues nothing to bad or expensive but the one big issue is that the water pump had seized which is why it was making a...

    Srs cat back true 3"?

    I Agree with everyone. I put one on my 2G about a month ago and love the low deep sound. The fitment was actually great and it does come with the adapter for the stock cat and all gaskets needed. Great purchase for the money. Good luck!

    420A won't go into gear!!!

    just went through this with mine. It wouldn't go into any gear at all. In order to go you had to put it in gear turn it on and hit the gas.... I had the clutch replaced and my issue is gone. My bet is on the clutch as well

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    Just an update, I have ordered EVERYTHING to do the timing on the car. Taking the bumpers off today so I can move it to my shop and should have it done by the end of the weekend.... then to see if I got a good deal on this car or what?! Hopefully it starts up with no issues.I will take a look...

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    Thanks for all the advice.... fuel was drained and the pump works ( but will be replaced just because it sat) I have the fuel filter ready to be installed. The reason I didn't want to redo the timing right away is because I wanted to replace the sensor and see if it would even start before I...

    2G New GSX with some issues, won't start after sitting 5 years

    Is there any way to change the sensor with out having to re-do the timing on the car ? As of now the timing is good and i don't really want to mess with it if i don't have to ...... timing isn't really my forte .....

    Ok, so we just bought a 95 gsx with 80k on it.... BUT it has been sitting for the better part of 5years. (only paid $1300) So here is our issue: Car cranks but won't turn over. We changed plugs, wires and replaced the old battery, checked for spark but none on any cylinder. So pulled the...

    Grinding/scraping noise in right rear

    ok update.... The constant noise is actually my hub in the front. The grinding in the rear..... I broke down and took it to a shop. It ended up being my rotors were cut "rough" ... So new rotors were put on the car and my noise went away. So lesson learned.... I will never have my rear rotors...

    Driving me nuts

    Agreed.... safc2 came in my car when I bought it. I had to re-do the timing and it still ran like crap after that. I had to completely reset the safc for my set up I followed this link for my set up RRE's Super AFC Setting and Adjustment Tips Haven't touched it since. but seems to be ok now...

    what kind of gas mileage are you getting?

    Not just you... my GSX does something like that. I get a good 100-150 out of the first 1/4 tank then it just sucks gas until I hit that 1/4 tank mark. It takes forever for my light to even come on. Not complaining though cause I average between 22-26 mpg, which is a lot better than my last gsx

    Grinding/scraping noise in right rear

    I have torn down my rear brakes 3 times now trying to figure out what this grinding/scraping noise is. No luck and everything is fine or looks fine. New pads, the rotors were cut within specs and my calipers are working(or at least they compress easily with a C-clamp). I checked the adjustment...

    Rear AWD Right Axle and Knuckle needed

    $750 for a set of axles through them. Now I called my local dealer and the rear axles are an obsolete part. One of them would have cost $600. Or I was searching on Ebay and found 1: Graveyard Motorsports Racing Axles Eclipse AWD REAR LSD | eBay thoughts on this one?

    Rear AWD Right Axle and Knuckle needed

    Which is a good turbo rebuild kit?

    I wanted to see if anyone knew a good place to have a 16G turbo rebuilt. I'm thinking about picking up a 16G with "minimal" shaft play for $150. The guy that is selling it told me to use gpop shop. Good deal - bad deal?

    Can't pass a NY inspection

    In NY you can only have 2 monitors that aren't running or "not ready".... Any shop that I talked to had no idea what I was talking about. One tried to work with me to get them running. We printed out the TSB and followed what they said to do to get them to run.... Not that it really works. I...
