    1G Brake Master Cylinder

    I did a search but couldn't find the information I need. My master cylinder is toast in my 92 TSi AWD and I need to find a replacement.Mitsu ASA shows a few different options for my model car. I'm assuming I will need to order #3 or #4 but am unsure as to the difference. Again, I'm assuming...

    Ok. So here's the deal. I have an old fuel sending unit that I will be adding a bulk fitting to to supply more fuel but my electrical connections are kinda looking ratty. I'd like to upgrade them. I just don't know where I can find an electrical stud that will insulate itself from the metal...

    Fuel Line Swelling

    I've been battling uphill ever since I upgraded my fuel system. As it sits right now, I have a walbro 255 in tank that has a 5/16" fuel injection line clamped with a fuel injection clamp. That is then connected to a fitting at the sending unit and out of the tank. Everything is tight prior to...

    Walbro 255 Problem

    I've been having a hard time trying to start my car since the fuel system upgrade and I suspected the old walbro is hurt. I've been getting a lot of leaking past my sending unit to tank seal, even with a 1/4 tank of gas. I found this weird so I did some investigating. I lifted my sending unit...

    Emissions 101

    So you want to remove your emissions pieces because you were told it would yield you more horsepower. Well I’m here to tell you that is pretty much wrong. This statement would be true in the 1970s when emission pieces were new and in development but recently in the past 20 years, OEMs have found...

    Injector Resistor Pack Wiring (1G N/T -> Turbo Conversion)

    This is fairly short and simple. For wiring up your non-turbo 1G 4G63 to accomodate turbo injectors, you will first need to purchase a stock injector resistor pack. These usually go for $5-20CDN, depending on who you buy from.This is simple and is the most common cause of consern for turbo...

    18x8 with 45 offset (x2 for front) and 18x9 with 38 offset (x2 for back). Both they are both running 235/40/zr18. Will they rub or will they be nice and not rub?

    N/T Flywheel and Clutch Combo in an AWD

    Short story: I bought a 93 ES 2 and a half years ago. It was slow. I turboed it. That was too slow, so I dropped in turbo pistons, upgraded a lot of parts and ran 20psi on a big EVO 3 16G. I lost all traction from 1st and 2nd gear and my non-turbo clutch disk lost all it's meat and built a glaze...

    Yeah, do you see anything missing? 4G63 N/T trannys gears are weaker than turbo trannies. I've seen both. Here's the n/t tranny. Where did 3rd gear go? Oh... at the bottom of my tranny.

    1G Turbo Conversion Information

    Our transmissions suck. I blew third gear right into one million pieces. Both gears got shreaded. So I took it apart with the help of a local dsm guy/guru and compared our n/t gears to the turbo gears. Our gears are thinner and the teeth are thinner. Everything is smaller and shittier. Third...

    My FMIC is killing my engine-bay temperatures. The only way I can keep them around normal is to take out my thermostat and have both my fans running full time. That isnt even reliable.
