So I recently swapped my cams and valve springs out for the Brian Crower stage 1 set which is a 268/272 combo. I have been very pleased with them and noticed a considerable power difference between the reground 264’s that I had after tuning my car. I love the sound of them at Idle and would...

We need to get his csr on the road. I'm ready to hear it run. Lol

when we gonna put your car back together tony?

yes that is your obd 2 connector

First things you should do before you even think about upgrades is the regular maintenance items such as timing belt, water pump, tune up, change fluids, and fix your suspension. After that you can start looking into upgrades. Also before you turn up any boost and replace fuel components your...

Mine without hold the throttle wide open is 140 across the board on a cold engine. Yes I know your not supposed to do it on a cold engine but I wanted to make sure I did my head gasket right when my car wouldn't start after replacing it

Sorry didn't mean it to sound rude. Lol. We should really all meet up sometime

Sorry guys just saw your replies. I took it to Moore Machine Shop on 12th street in Moore, ok. had them rebuild the head and resurface it. put it all back together this week and got it going as well as put on 3"exhaust. I gotta say i think its running way better than before. I was running...

ok thanks for the help.well talked to the guy he said it is in fact the big one and it was an intercooled turbo. so I will definitely be picking it up from him. according to him it doesnt have much shaft play if anyI know i will have to get a BEP housing, is it the same housing as the HX35?

hows it going man. welcome i guess. lol

I have a guy at my job that has an H1C that he wants to sell me for $100. My problem is that I'm not sure how good of a turbo it is. I have been told that they arent very good due to the webbing that's inside of them. I have also been told by other people that they are great turbos. I am...

thats not bad at all. i wish i had the extra money laying around i would buy it

So some of you may be on the Facebook page and were following and or giving advice, but here is the back story. I replaced my head gasket and put ARP head studs in when i did it. Then got it all back together and put it all back like it was hooked everything back up in the right spots blah...

i was hoping to be able to go even bought a truck so i could pull my car there but then i blew a head gasket and my car is still down and i have spent most of what i had saved on trying to make it run. maybe i will get lucky and can still go.

to answer your questions no i dont have a stock fuel pump. i have a walbro 255. and on the 4g63 you dont need a swivel to get to the head bolts.Anyway I got my head back from the machine shop today and I will be starting to put it back together today. and will make sure its torqued down...

awesome thanks. and yes i have the 3 piece thrust bearing. and feel very lucky

Thanks

So I was told this would work from a friend but I want to make sure. I am slowly planning my build was told that i could go with an EVO crank instead of the normal talon or eclipse crank and it would work just fine. I am just curious if this will actually work or was this person full of shit.

yes it will work. i actually put a turbo clutch pedal assembly in a n/t. but yes it will work as long as it was pulled from the same generation.

Thanks for the links on everything and all the information. I actually dropped off my head this morning to a place that was recommended by another buddy that i know for a fact knows his stuff. I have physically watched him assemble blocks and have seen the cars he has built. I should have go...

Ya i know i dont need L19's for 18 lbs of boost. I have the new felpro gasket and my head is going to the machine shop tomorrow. I just wish the person that torqued my head studs down did it the right way in the first place and i wouldnt have to be doing this again. When I build my new motor...

ya i know what you mean about searching stuff and all that. and its not so much that im on a tight budget but i only plan to run this motor for a short while. until my actual motor is done. when i actually build my motor then i will go with the best of the best.

When i actually build my new motor i will do L19s but for now im just gonna go with regular ARPs i think.yes i am on the wichita dsm page and the idiot friend that steered me in the wrong direction on everything and caused this problem is on their as well.

thanks for all the advice guys and i will definitely use this site more than i have been instead of listening to idiot friends. I thought i added the injectors to my profile but i guess not. i will have to go add them. i agree on the scary part but i guess its like they say you live and learn...

Well after talking to a guy that is probably the most knowledgeable that i know of here in the OKC area I explained to him everything that happened and how the original head gasket was torqued down and everything else and found out that the idiot friend I have is even more of an idiot than i...

So i blew my head gasket on Friday night which was only a month old. I have been told that it was because i didn't pull the valve cover off after 250 miles but not sure how true that is. Then another friend told me that that's not necessary. Have also been told that it was because I was...

Actually I have to disagree with the smaller injectors. I have the manual in right here and according to the manual you can run up to 1030 cc injectors on a 2g and still be able to tune it with the MAF-T

I think deep down we are all still "kids" inside. haha

Very nice GTO and i agree they definitely have a soft spot in my heart and would love to one day have one.

I'm not trying to be a prick at all but give him a break I mean he is 20 yrs old and working a part time job that is probably just paying for his basic necessities while he is going to school. He didn't say that he doesn't have the ambition to have a 10 second car he just said stated why he...

OK so here is what I did. I got a MAF translator from a buddy didn't pay much for it but that's beside the point. Without asking him which one it was I just assumed it was the 2.0 so i downloaded that manual and started getting pissed when it wasn't really doing anything as far as my A/F...

thanks i think so.

I'm thinking im just going to have to save up the extra money and go anyway. i guess me and the wife will have a room all to ourselves. haha

Well my trip may have taken a turn for the worse. I now get to find someone else to go with seeing as the guy i was gonna go with has decided to sell his car instead of putting it back together and is probably not going to shoot out, so now i either get to save twice as much as i had planned or...

anyone care to meet up this weekend? I will be out of town for coffee and cars so i wont be able to make that. i will actually get back in town on saturday night around 6ish. Well if anyone wants to meet up just let me know.

I love that. i kinda wish i would have kept my 1g and did that to it. lol

maybe. did you actually see it run in the other car that you took it out of? if you have it narrowed down to spark then it should be something simple.

i'm really not sure man. i wish you lived closer to me i would come try to help you out.

hmm. did you try new plug wires. also make sure the plug wires are getting a good connection inside the coil.

I know its not getting spark at all.. Fuel Im not to sure it seems like it is and no to the compression test. The motor ran fine all I did was put it in a different car...Just curious did you plug in the coil or could the coil have gone bad. not trying to make you sound like an idiot but i...

have you checked to see if your getting fuel, spark, and all that? have you done a compression test?

+1 to this. I have never been before but this will be my first and most definately not my last year of going, and im looking forward to seeing it.

I showed up but i woke up late. didnt get there till 10 am. i was so mad when i woke up at 9. i am pretty sure i have to get a new TPS for my car. ugh. oh well hopefully i will be able to make the next one. at least i saw 2 nice evo's. lol

If I lived in Michigan then I would gladly let you hitch a ride with me and the wife. Only problem is I live in Oklahoma and that would be way out of my way. lol

this is going to be my first year going and honestly I dont really care if there are gtr's there or not. I agree its a bad ass AWD platform. I cant wait for my vacation in August to get here so i can attend this awesome looking event. I understand some people not caring for the change but if...

Well due to a sudden change of events I am not leaving town this weekend like i thought, so I will be able to show up for coffee and cars. Anyone else planning on showing up?

6500 is what KBB says its worth.

just curious if you figured out the problem yet?

I am currently running a 16g turbo and a wally 255 and stock injectors with stock fpr. I run 12-15 psi and my car never hits fuel cut. I also have all stock internals. I'm about to get my wideband all hooked up and put 3" gm maf and translater on my car so i can actually kinda tune it.
