  1. 1G big brake upgrade for 90 NT

    good so i am not loosing my mind. i will track down a couple brackets then.
  2. 1G big brake upgrade for 90 NT

    so am i missing something here? i purchased a pair of 2 piston calipers from someone on another website and went to put them on and the brackets are way off. I read on the vfaq that one year 95 had banjo bolts instead of the screw in brake lines but i didnt read anything about the bolt holes in...
  3. Tach drops to zero on hard acceleration

    well thanks for your suggestions. It isnt really important. I have a logger that tells me my rpms. so i really dont need my tach i just thought i would ask. Thanks for all the answers.
  4. Tach drops to zero on hard acceleration

    yeah the needle just drops. its only when i really get on it where the rpms would be over 4k. so if it is a wiring issue where under the hood does the tach reference its rpms?
  5. Tach drops to zero on hard acceleration

    Okay i am not really a newbie but i couldnt find where to post this so here goes. I have a 90 NT automatic talon and when i nail the throttle to pass people or go up a hill my tach drops to zero. I tried to look it up on alldata but they do not have any info on what actually controls the tach so...
  6. gear selector pops out of gear

    i was thinking about mounts i know they are weak. and since you dont have to push the button from D to N i think it may do it when i gun the throttle.. if the mounts are weak it can move the trans far enough to move the selector. Thanks for the advice.
  7. gear selector pops out of gear

    well i really dont think that is the problem because it only does it on hard acceleration and it actually moves the lever itself. i can then move the lever back into drive and everything is fine. and it only does it when i stomp on the gas. i can also move the lever without pressing the button...
  8. gear selector pops out of gear

    Okay so i have an auto tranny and if i get on it like to merge onto the highway sometimes it kicks my selector out of drive . is there a way to fix this problem or should i just look into a new type of selector.
  9. OMG my carpet is soaked!!!!

    well seeing as how rain runs downward i would venture to say you are getting water from somewhere besides the bottom of your car. i would guess firewall or it could be running down the pilars of the car and running behind pannels. the best way to find these leaks besides using dye is to have a...
  10. torque converter solenoid plug

    yes it is and the problem went away after i disconnected the red wire that controls the lockup solenoid.
  11. torque converter solenoid plug

    well i dont think that driving at a constant speed (65mph) should make the ocnverter lock and unlock over and over and continue at any speed. the only time it is not doing it is when i am not on the gas.
  12. torque converter solenoid plug

    so if anyone is having the same problem as me i found out it was my torque converter lockup solenoid. There is a plug at your transmission that has 4 wires going to it in a square plug. The red wire controls the solenoid that tries to lock the torque converter. well mine was locking and...
  13. torque converter solenoid plug

    I am having a trans problem and i asked the trans guy at my work about it and he said that it sounds like my torque converter is locking and unlocking back and forth. What it does is when i am cruising after about 10 minutes my car will fluctuate rpms about 300 up and down. that is only if i...
  14. auto trans highway problem

    i am not sure its a trans computer doing it. i think there is some other outside problem. but i guess i will look for another computer just in case.
  15. auto trans highway problem

    okay my last problem that i am trying to figure out here. I have a 90 N/T automatic talon. My problem is that when i am cruising on the highway (i have a 45 minute drive to work) going about 65 , after about 10 minutes of driving my RPMs start fluctuating. it just consistently goes up down up...
  16. can't maintain constant RPM

    any update on this? my trans is doing the exact same thing. it is very annoying.
  17. Automatic FWD to Manual FWD using an AWD trans

    well thanks for all your thoughts. I think i might just stick with the automatic. I now feel there will be less problems. I can not go out and get another car that is a turbo manual since i have 3 vehicles already and my fiance has one. so that is 4 vehicles in a house that only has a 2 car...
  18. Automatic FWD to Manual FWD using an AWD trans

    true. but why is the welded one better? sorry i am new to trannys But thank you for your help so far.
  19. Automatic FWD to Manual FWD using an AWD trans

    yeah but i found a guy parting out an awd and he made me a great deal on his trans so i was just wondering if i can use it. I am not really in any hurry i can drive my automatic until i get some answers but the fwd being lighter would be nice.
  20. Automatic FWD to Manual FWD using an AWD trans

    okay after reading almost every post about swaps for trans i now have a headache. I have a couple questions. here is my situation. I have a 90 non turbo automatic talon. yeah i know the worst combo ever. but at least it isnt a 1.8. Anyways i love manuals and i want to covert mine. I understand...
  21. missing radio

    yes mine is cut off. as for the pictures i dont have one that is a good close up of that spot but i can take one tomorrow. I will check into dsmgraveyard or ask a guy down the road from me he has alot of extra parts.
  22. missing radio

    so my question is where do i get the brackets then? or would crutchfield have them if i got a radio from them. Whoever took the radio cut the wiring harness so i will have to wire it up if i can get a schematic.
  23. missing radio

    yeah thats what i wanted to see. so i am not really missing anything then. my question is how does the radio attach in there?
  24. missing radio

    yes i need to know if i am missing some bracket or something. I guess i could take a picture of mine and post it so you guys can tell me what i am missing.
  25. missing radio

    I am buying a 90 eagle talon tonight and the radio and whatever else was there is missing. Does anyone have a picture of the center of the dash with the radio removed but the parts still there so i know what i need to get replaced? I would like to put a new radio in this car asap since my...

  39. strut mounts

    anyone know a good place to get strut mounts.. mine are all beat to hell and look like someone took a crap in the bearing.. lol.. the only place i can even get a listing is partsamerica.comThanks Mike
  40. Strut Mounts

    first thing.. the mount isnt just the rubber.. its the whole top part of the strut.. it rotates when you turn your wheels... so i say if it is going to be all torn apart you might as well as long as you have the money.. but usually i dont tell people to replace them unless they are binding..
  41. suspension half done

    well i worked on it for about 3 hours today got the rears in all except for the drivers side.. that damn lower bolt fused itself to the bottom of the shock.. i cut the shock off and the rubber and i am working on the metal ring around the bolt.. i might just cut right through the bolt.. anyone...

  43. whats up with springs for 1g dsms

    I have contacted a few shops to find some springs for my eclipse and everyone that i have talked to says that they are on backorder... eibach and H&R .. i found some intrax but i dont know about them.. and some dropzone.. but i dont know much about them either... so if anyone has any thoughts or...
  44. 4g63 question

    okay so isnt the 4g63 the same for 1st gen as it is for 2nd gen cars? why i am asking is because the exhaust headers are more abundant for the 2g so couldnt you possibly bolt one onto a 1g its the same engine right? i understand that the piping might be different going to the back of the car...
  45. EL Gauge (wiring)

    or you can tie into the dimmer switch for the instrument panel.. thats how i did it...
  46. Painting Door Panels

    i would have pics but i dont have that car anymore... but yes that is exactly how i did it.. they were small screws so it wouldnt break through the plastic.
  47. 1g non turbo replacing CV joints

    i am replacing both of mine next week and i am making little mpegs of the install... so keep checking
  48. Painting Door Panels

    i think the plastic is actually melted into a flat top so it stays .. i used small screws with a washer worked great just make sure you get the screw directly in the center or it will crack and then you are up sh*t creek... hope this helps

  50. Exhaust Flamer thrower

    i have an rx-7 and they almost all do that because the exhaust temps are alot more than regular cars... thats why we cant use normal mufflers.. because they melt the insides
