I'm in need of a good working order transmission for my 99 gst.

I'm in angleton and surfside. Are there any meets?

I got a barely used 165A H/O alternator on ebay for $50 shipped. Got super lucky. Works great.

bottom pic looks like it came off a rear main seal top pic could be something off your shift linkage or suspension

I had the exact issue. It's your fiav for sure. I bought a new ics thinking that it was the problem, it wasn't. I just blocked the fiav and presto perfect idle. enjoy.

Man you got ripped off!!! I bought a 99gst for a grand and rebuilt the entire 6 bolt engine that was in it and added a shit load of performance parts for $2500. total $3500. F*ck dynos and retailers!!! Learn how to street tune, it only takes years to learn. This last dsm build has around 350 to...

ok thanks

fiav. lower section of the tb. is open which allows air to pass around the throttle plate when it's closed. Happened to my 92 n/a 94mm tb. Take your tb off and try blowing through it with your mouth, just make sure the ics is blocked with your finger and throttle plate is closed.

I threw out the entire windshield wiper assembly and motor thinking that you wouldn't need them for inspection but you do so now I'm wondering if all the 2g's have the same assembly because I can just go to a salvage yard and find a nonturbo 2g all day and pull one off.

Yeah florida has no emission inspections so you can run a test pipe and put any type of off road only (non DOT) aftermarket parts in. California is basically the opposite.

cool good to know. Thanks for the info. I'm using 92 or 93 here in Texas with my recent dsm that I bought, gutted, and rebuilt. It's a great daily driver for Texas. Don't see any Sunocos' with 100 unleaded called cam GT and 110 leaded call super turbo at the pump. @ $8.00 and 8.50 a gal. SH!T is...

Just a simple question but what is special about e85 fuel? Is it because it's cheaper? I'm originally from Florida and now I'm in Texas and all I used is 93, 100, 110 leaded, or c16 which is 117 octane. I would run only 100 unleaded and 110 leaded in a few of my weekend dsm's that shouldn't be...

Wondering where all the dsm's south of houston. I also work on dsm's if anyone is looking for help with tuning, engine assembly, and solve any issues.

never had a problem with injector clinics'

Welcome back! Once dsm is in your blood you can never get it out of your system.

I would get at least 550cc or 650cc injectors. And any front mount is better than the stock ic. Then tune you MAFT to compensate for more fuel and air.

Thanks, things are going well, his heath has improved sense me being here. My step father is a huge car/racing fanatic and has had nobody to talk to about nascar, F1, or anything car related until I moved here."Hey billy, you got your wood screws on? Because I'm about to blow your doors...

yeah this 99 gst won the lottery having me pick her up. It was very beat up with jimmy rigged parts everywhere, and was put together by a two year old.

New 160amp alternator is installed. Engine is complete. This thing is ready for the street. Runs perfect! for now

Alright, I'll just leave the 120amp fuse that's currently in there, thanks for your advice.

Checked through the old threads for the same question and didn't really see any good answers. Anyone else running a high output alternator?

I've owned around 40 dsm's so far and I vented the bov to the atmosphere 95% of the time. Using stock ecu's, dsmlink, and aem. You just got to know how to tune each individual 4g63 accordingly. It takes a lot of hands on experience to know how to "tune" these temperamental beasts. There are some...

the kid described being in a parking lot and out of know where a big noise followed by smoke pouring out the engine. He gave me a new 2g water pump and said that he was having over heating issues. So when I bought it and took it apart I noticed a bunch of silicone in and around the thermostat...

yeah I got lucky with the color. I'll checkout the houston forums, thanks.Just drove it around and after giving it a 2nd & 3rd gear pull the battery and brake light came on. Time for a new alternator. Car runs & idles perfect for about a mile just before the engine warms up.

Don't need to, don't have any issues, yet. An HKS VPC would be nice.

I'm new to the Houston area. I'm originally from Florida. I'm here in Texas in Surfside right on the beach. I sold my house and put all my DSM's worth holding onto in storage units. Mainly moved here to take some of the burden off my sister after my step-father had a stroke and both him and my...

I'm laughing at myself because I was just gonna say that I thought that the 2g fuel rail was bigger. Then I see that you put arguably before it.

thanks for the part #. Got to drive to Houston to pick it up, after I order it of course.

I'm missing the small valve that goes in the vacuum line that comes from the intake manifold and goes to the brake booster. Anyone know of a place that I could get one?

wouldn't you need a welded diff in order for all the wheels to spin?

You could try dsm grave yard. But craigslist is your best bet if your willing to drive a distance. Search in the bigger cities near your location on craigslist. Or just go to a local auto salvage and they can call all of the other salvage yards to locate any engine.
