  2. shifts like a bag of rocks, no grinding, its just hard to shift

    Got some problems popping up after my build, I don't want to put many miles on it like this, I don't want major damage to occur. Anywho- The trans is a Shep Stage 3 5K miles on it, no rockwells, AWD burnouts, or even visits to the track(no autox or drag). Only a few street launches, with no...

  4. Surge With biss in

    Okay, heres the scenario-- Idle surge(yaaayyy another noob post) But heres the kicker- Disconnect the throttle switch, and the idle goes to 1500 RPM, but the biss screw is ALL THE WAY IN! If i turn the biss out, the idle increases, but i cannot get it any lower than 1500 RPM. New ISC, coils...

  7. Turbine question

    I am building a 2.3 stroker over the winter, and have a feeling that it will be out-flowing the PTE 50 trim i currently have on the car, leading to surge, creep, and too many obnoxious turbo noises. I was thinking about upgrading to a GT35r, and was looking at a few different option, one being...

  9. What to re-use

    I recently did a timing belt swap on my car, the motor had 155 on it when I put the new parts on. New pulleys, new tensioner, water pumpo, yada yada yada. All parts were mitsu, except the WP, which I got brandy new from a buddy at advanced for cheap. 5000 miles later I HAVE to build a new...
  10. 50 trim upgrade

    My motor is at about the end of its life, its got over 160k on it, popped the headgasket on it two weeks ago(dumb mistake, through a unrealized pinhole leak and 40 miles of highway driving) I ordered a set of 280 cams, cometic headgasket, arp studs, 1mm over valves, BC springs, and upgraded...
  11. Wandering idle

    This is a little different than most, as I have DSMlink, and a MAFT setup on my car. Also i removed the FIAV, and the IAC is blocked. Yet my idle still wanders around 2-400 RPM when i am sitting at idle. Does anyone have any input. At this point i am thinking that it is the MAF sensor.
  12. 16X7's

    Kinda of an odd size for today's style, but i am not interested in the wow factor, only overall streetability, and performance. I found a set of used 16x7 wheels, with a 40 mm offset, and i was wondering if i could run these with 225/50/16 tires, and not look ridiculous? Wheels weight about 18...
  13. Coupla Problems

  14. Coupla Problems

    I got a couple of problems with my car, and i beleive that they are all trans/clutch related. 1st- Sometimes when starting the car, with the trans in neutral, the car seems to vibrate a bit, even if i rev the motor a bit. As soon as i put in the clutch, the vibration goes away, sometimes it...

  17. Blow up the car.

    For anyone out there wanting to fix their clutch pedal or remove it at all, just do yourself a favor and blow up your car. Your lower back will thank you in the morning. I just swapped out a 91 pedal assembly for a 90, the strang thing was the 91 had 155k on it, and the bushing was fully...
  18. 16" wheel

    I'm not looking for bling, or anything real flashy, more performance over anything, and I am looking for a nicely priced set of 16" lightweight wheels that will accomodate wider tires. Anyone have any pointers as to where to find a good price on wheels like this? Or suggestions as to what kind...
  19. Chuffing between shifts

    I get a chuffing noise in between shifts, when I am boosting. I am pretty sure the noise is coming from the BOV, not the turbo, The BOV is a 1G crushed, with the boost source coming off of the side of the throttle body. Is this cuffing noise normal, I don't want to cause premature wera on the...
  20. Tranny Issue?

    I just installed a brand new shep stage three tranny in my talon, along with an SBR4000 clutch. I have almost 200 miles on this setup, mostly highway.
