So I found out I have a n/t 2g 7bolt. I pulled the engine because of a tick I suspected to be a knock. Really didn't sound that bad but I thought what the hell. I tore it down today and to my dismay I realized my pistons had shattered.(literally) in turn wiping out basically everything that...
I know a stock 2g. Please be kind. The 5 speeds around here pull a premium so Im looking for a less expensive alternative. I know a 5 speed from a 4g64 spyder will bolt up but what other cars can I use one out of? There are alot of other 4g64 equipped cars that I can find locally,with 5 speeds...
So here is the deal. I'm sure I need a new solenoid. I plan to replace them all for added insurance. I currently have the solid red wire coming from the lock up solenoid which I read is for the early transmissions. Should I change to the one supposedly for my car or put it back the way its...
Ok so here is the deal. My trans has been shifting goofy since I got it up and driving. Cruising at 60 I'm getting about 3500 rpm's. today I got a p1750 code for shift solenoid. I searched and stumbled on a thread where someone mentioned where to get them but now I can't find it. I checked the...
I just got the car all together and have put a few miles on it. I have noticed that after I boost and let off the throttle I will get some oil smoke. It doesn't happen while just cruising just after boost. I'm thinking turbo shaft seal, as I have some trace oil in the intake piping to the...
I'm torn here. I have stock exhaust and its rotten to say the least. I'm up in the air on whether to use the 2.5 inch stainless sticks I have and head to the muffler shop, or sell the stainless and get a used exhaust off here or c/l. I have a 3" inlet muffler to round it all out. I don't know...
I found a 90 laser in the jy today. It's a turbo with a 5sp. The price is 320 and change for the engine and trans combo.plus I get 80 back when I return the core. The vc is missing as is the turbo. I don't know the condition of either the trans or the motor. I did get in and moved the shifter...
Ok so long story short. I don't have the right dipstick installed. Making due till I find one. I dropped the pan to replace the filter and only got about a quart or two of fluid. How many quarts do I put in to get me in the ballpark of proper level. The only thing I can find is the overall...
Ok so I don't know if I really have a bad problem or not but here goes. Here's some quick background on the car. I got it as a non running project last June. After fighting through all the issues with the motor I have finally been able to put about 20-25 miles on it. Here comes the possible...
So after messing with my dsm for 6 month os so I was finally able to get tags and insurance and take it for a spin. Everything was going good pressures and temps where they should be. I noticed when I boosted on it it would puff out the tail pipe. Thought it was just some oil burn off from a...
So I decided to ditch the crappy iridium plugs and go back stock. I called every auto parts shop around and everyone said they were special order. I said the hell with it and started tinkering with my nephews dirt bike instead. When I pulled the plug to inspect it I was caught off guard. The...
So after 6 months of fixing the po's half assed work I got to drive my dsm last night. I babied it around the block a few times and it all felt great. Cruised down to a little straight stretch and decided to let the turbo do its job. After a rolling start to about ten mph I pinned the gas. The...
So I bled the brakes and I get a good firm pedal. Wait a few seconds(like literally 3seconds) and the pedal goes to the floor. I did the buddy method and I also put a valve stem in an old resivior cap and put a little air pressure to it and bled it that way. No help. I replaced the m/c and still...
My gst runs like crap. Its undriveable. I checked everything I can think of and even a few I didn't think of. I narrowed it down to injectors I think. I noticed they were grey on top instead of the black or blue the search function produces so many of. The numbers on one side are inp-064 on the...
Ok here we go. I checked the timing on the cam gears on my car, and they were dead on. Next I moved down to the pulley and checked the marks on the cover. To my dismay the timing mark on the pulley was roughly30-40 degrees past the tdc mark. I jacked up the engine, pulled everything off the...
Yeah, so I hate this damn car!
So I got it and the electrical was all screwed up. Apparently sitting like 6 years will do that. Got that straightened out and the turbo took a crap. Now it has been replaced with a 14b off of a first gen. I decided to do a boost leak test just to make sure I got...

How many gps, grams per second should I be reading at idle? My scanner is showing about 4.5 at idle. That just doesn't seem right to me. I can't seem to find any definitive answers on google or the search on this forum.
Ok so here is the skinny. I just got this car after someone else gave up on it. It came to me with a bad turbo which I replace with a stock t25. The only aftermarket part on this car is a K@N air filter. The motor was just recently rebuilt (like 0 miles.) The idle is very poor (low) at best. I...
