you sure it was a GSX and not a laser? if it was a laser, that would be Jason. he lives in Suisun City and works at Travis AFB.

would be interesting to watch. too bad i sold the GSX in favor of an Evo IX. the evo wouldn't be very impressive with the current mods.

I suffered from the same thing in my 97 GSX for a while. Basically, the things you'll want to test are the coil pack, spark plugs (check the gap), and the Idle Speed Controller (ISC). The ISC is usually the culprit in a bouncy idle. There's a good tech article on "idle surge" that you may be...

You're welcome.

No, the Evo III 16g is from the Evo III in Japan. The Evo VIII turbo is a twin-scroll 16g that faces the other direction (the intake on the evo goes right instead of left like on a DSM.)

The walbro will fit the 1g, but you just need an install kit for it because it has a different wiring setup. Putting the 1g awd fuel pump into the 2g I'm not sure about. I've heard of guys talking about doing it, but they never posted back saying if it worked or not. If it works out, post it up.

I've heard that, too. I had the prokits on my GSX with KYB AGX shocks. They settled down at a 1.3" drop, but that just depends on the car really. The most I've ever seen the suspension settle to is 1.5".I used to live in San Antonio and I drove through Houston a lot on my way to Conroe. I...

The install kit will be different, but the pump itself will work if you can get a hold of a 1g install kit.errr... wait... Do you mean put the 1g fuel pump into the 2gNT, or did you mean put the walbro into the 1g?

If you have a leak around the turbo area I wouldn't be driving it and trying to get up past 3k rpm and flooring it. You are going to cause some serious damage to your car. First, work on the oil leak. Take a bucket of soapy water and some degreaser to wash the engine bay down to get all the...

well i don't know anything about F150 SuperCrew's, but i can lead you in the right direction. go to Autozone and check the Chilton's manuals. it will have a section in there dealing with that. that's the fastest way i can think of to find one. sorry if this doesn't help.

yes. they are there to help stop the travel of the assembly.i had to repair this hack job suspension job a couple months ago. the bump stops weren't installed and the car sat a LOT lower than the 1.2" drop it was supposed to have and it felt horrible while driving.once i reinstalled the...

d'oh! it was working for a little while. let me fix the link... going to have to upload it again. the gallery got deleted.

good luck with it and you're welcome. :)

yea what he said. i have the same rims on my Evo IX.

A/C Compressor harness, I just went and looked at it myself.

d'oh! i completely lost track of what day it was. forgot all about it... sorry about that guys. good pics though.

take out your back seat bench and open the access cover for the fuel pump. start the car and push the gas a little while someone looks. it could be coming out of the cap for the fuel pump, in which case take off the cap and check the seal.

Hopefully if you've seen the new Mitsubishi Street Raider, you'll know what this is. I was looking at it and thought that it would look great with a big front mount. Then something occured to me... the Mitsu concept cars all have pretty much the same style front end... So I decided to throw the...

you'll be fine with the NGK's if you're wanting to upgrade. if you are concerned about the colour, you can get the taylor wires. they come in red, black or blue and are a spiro-core wire. where the magnacores will run you around $80, the taylors can be had for about $60.i've got a set of...

i had that problem on one car i was working on. there's a number of things that could do it. you say that you don't smell fuel on the spark plugs, but is it getting fuel pressure? unhook the line to the FPR and crank it and see if fuel is squirting out.and when you crank it, does it sound...

i saw a black 92 talon, couldn't tell if it was a tsi or not because if it was blowing off, i couldn't hear it because i was running open downpipe. this was on hwy 12 in suisun. he kept jumping it about a car length behind me acting like he wanted to go, but giving me a head start or something...

M&S is not really near oakland... complete opposite direction. but if you do decide to order something from M&S, i know one of the guys up there. so just let me know.

at least in San Fran you guys still have fuel with MTBE in it.

hey Ricky, i'll be out there as soon as i get this oil leak situation figured out and get a good tune.

i hear that a LOT. you have no idea. some guy thought i was his son one time. no joke.

what turbo did you wind up with? i think i've seen your car before.

exactly :)

I'd go with what Zeppelin said. Drop the tranny and have a look. Make sure to check that the clutch is properly seated and torqued, and that the disc doesn't have any broken springs. Inspect the clutch fork and pivot ball along with the throw out bearing.how long ago did you change your clutch?

i'm going to take a wild stab at this... what kind of BOV is it? and what do you mean by:

yea right off the 12 and by fairfield. just let me know. i've got another guy who will be needing it soon too, but i can get his engine installed in a couple hours.

if you don't want to buy a new flange, you can drill 2 holes onto the existing flange for it. i don't know about the ABS question though.

you could remove the balance shafts while the motor is out. as far as the timing belt job goes you should replace the water pump, oil pump, tensioner and the other stuff that comes with a general timing belt kit. that's basically it. it's easier to do a timing belt job with the motor out of the...

i'm running the hallman pro with stainless steel lines. i didn't opt for the in-cabin option because that's just a faster way to blow yourself up. can't go wrong with a MBC that has been proven to carry cars into the 7's.

i'm using 10wt bolts with crush washers and a nut to hold mine up. good heat and load bearing capability. go to Lowe's or whatever hardware store you have (Ace or Lowe's pref) and just pick up the size you need.

i'm in Suisun City if you need it. I have it disassembled right now for the most part. i also have a engine stand if you need to borrow that as well.

You won't be able to let the intake pipe go down where the stock side mount is unless you get a FMIC with short route piping. the Greddy front mount and some others use the stock SMIC location to lead piping up to your UICP. Look into getting the Slowboy FMIC or even a custom spearco core with...

definitely check ALL of your wiring again for your S-AFC. sounds like the same problem my friend had (the stuttering) and it turned out to be just the wires for the air flow metering (the ones with the metal clips on them already.) check your ground also and make sure that you put the correct...

Jon hasn't been to the Oakland races in a while from what I've been told. He complains that his car is slow, but I know he's not serious because I've ridden in it.

what you're going to want to do is take it all apart and hot tank it (clean it) and inspect the block for any damages such as holes. then you will need to do a pressure test to see if the block is still good. from there, check your cylinder walls for scratches, or you can just bore it out...

umm... does it matter? if it works for race, it works for show. the only difference would be that i "might" not come clear coated. in which case you can ask them to clear coat it or have someone clear coat it for you.

Try Squidskins.com. i know they make a stock talon front end and they may be able to do an eclipse front end.

Honestly I would get the 255lph HP because they're the same price. You may not need all that fuel delivery now... but in the future you may decide to upgrade. Paired with the RC 550cc injectors, a good AFPR and fuel computer you'll be just fine. The stock fuel rail is sufficient enough to...

have you tried running it from the engine bay, along the side into where the fender meets the door and down on the inside of the trim piece? or is the wire too big?

in my quest to finish my car, i came up with my bolts for my pressure plate missing and the bolts for my oil filter housing.does anybody know the size on these bolts? i have a 97 GSX with a 7 bolt motor.

little pipe that sticks out? it really shouldn't matter on a universal cat which direction it faces, just as long as the filter and material inside can catch the stuff coming out of the exhaust.

i say 550's because you're going to want to increase boost later on i'm assuming. it's always best to have the supporting mods before you start doing the mods that need the support.[edit] but keep in mind, you will need to get the items to tune with also before you just go out and get the...

how old is the battery? the best way to test the battery to see if it's dead or not is to bring it to Sears or any other shop that can test the battery. They can microwave it and check to see if it'll hold power. If it won't hold, then more than likely the battery is dead since you say it's...
