I have a 97 gsx and been having never ending problems with the clutch. Basically I'm getting pump up on the clutch is the problem. I have recently replaced the clutch kit, throw out bearing, pivot ball and fork, slave, master cylinder and clutch dampener and still having engagment problems...
Was having a leak at the FIAV, the FIAV itsed was cracked. So I decided to take it off and just block it. I did and was running the idle off the biss and TPS, but now when cold starts I have to keep my foot on the gas pedal to keep the idle up untill it warms up. It sucks because I have remote...
So after searching for weeks on what the mysterious freeway misfire is, I decided that its the CAS. I have a 2g with 6 bolts swap. So I got the crank angle sensor mounted. Before I thought it was CAS related I changed the plugs, wires, tested coils, changed fuel filter, tested fuel pump, even...
I got a 97 gsx, big 16g. Car is boosting really really late. It hits full 10 psi at 4600 and its not like it hits hard, just a gradual change. When on the freeway I floor it in 5th gear and at 70 mph and it takes 3 seconds to hit full boost. Doesn't even feel like a turbo anymore its that bad...
I have a 2g gsx with a 1g tb and was having major leaks at the throttle body. I found out the the ISC has a crack in it, so I took it off and put a block off plate. Now its holding boost with no leaks but I'm having wierd idle problems. Cold starts the car dies unless I keep the gas pedal steady...
I got a 97 gsx with a 6 bolt swap. Been having really bad misfiring at highway speeds, the point to where the whole car shakes. Now I checked all fuel and spark areas such as changed plugs, wires, checked coils, changed fuel filter cleaned injectors. Still same misfiring at highway speeds. Used...
I have a 97 GSX. Finally fixed all boost leaks. Holds 20 psi and bleds down to zero in 60 seconds. It pulls alot harder now but it hits full boost at 4200 rpms. I have big 16g, clipped 10 degrees, FMIC, Ic piping, K&N cone air filter, 1G bov, 1G TB, set at 9 psi, 190 FP. I just replaced the fuel...
Ill be cruising on the freeway and all of a sudden my car start misfiring in every cylinder. The whole car starts vibrating. I let off the gas and no vibration, I push the gas again and it vibrates hard again. I put it in nuetral and coast for a few seconds, put it back into gear and no more...
HAving a big idle surge problem. Start the car, shoots up to 3500 rpms, then it will drop and idle from 1200-1500 rpms. I have a 1g tb and just worked on the car the whole day fixing all the boost leaks, has no more leaks. Start the car and it idle surges. Now I replace the FIAV with a working...
My interior lights fuse keeps blowing. My car is acting wierd since then. Everytime I start my car its like my car has to relearn everything, my cel goes away, i have to enter my radio code, my dash lights and dome lights are out. My idle has to relearning itself so everytime I drive my idle is...
Started to do a BLT on the gsx today and started at the throttle body. Wouldn't go past 7 psi. When I left off the air, it would drop to zero within a second. My buddies helping me out and I myself heard it clear out the exhaust, can feel the air push ahead the side of your head clear. I put the...
What are the common causes of having backfire when in boost? It happens when at full boost and it shoots a flame out the exhaust and the car falls flat on its face when it does. Can boost leaks cause this? What about the fuel pump? Can I get a list of what can cause backfire when in boost...
Just like the title says. It seems pretty straight forward but I just want to make sure. I can do it while its still on the car right? Just push the fork back and pull out the rod? and replace the rod with a longer one?
So I just swapped the hotside on my 16g and added a evoIII o2 housing but when I bolted everything back up and started the car I noticed a somewhat big oil leak from the stud and nut that connects the o2 housing and dp. I looked around and the oil isn't coming from the head or anywhere around...
Just figured out why I'm having so much engagment problems on my 97 gsx. Put on new clutch still having engagment problems. I then research what could be the problem and turns out that my clutch fork has some play and the rod of it is sticking to the left, I read on the RRE link that you can...
Ever since I got my clutch installed, its been never ending problems. First I had the clutch pump up, but then I fixed that when I found out how to properly adjust the engagment.My current problem now is that my clutch engagment is hard. I adjusted the rod perfectly and even though its...

I was switching out the bulbs under the dash with leds and I blew out the fuse. I put the resistor on the wrong side. Checked out the fuses and sure enough I blew the fuse. replaced it and everything seemed to work fine except for the radio volume. The radio turns on and does everything just...
Ok so I'm looking to get new tires next week for my ix wheels (17x8 +35) and I'm stuck between 245-45-17 and 245-40-17. I had 245-40 on 17x7.5 wheels with no rubbing at all the so im pretty sure they wont rub on these wheels. The thing is the 245-45 are cheaper but I'm not sure if they'll rub...
So there I am just driving, not really boosting. I'm crusing at 65 mph and my car starts vibrating like crazy. I left off the gas and then give it gas and everytime I give it gas it vibrates, almost like a misfire. It happens like once a week, at highway speeds. It comes out of nowhere, I don't...
Does anyone know any good devices to play music from your iphone/ipod to your car radio? I have the stock radio, the FM transmitter sucks, the tape player adapter sucks and I don't have an aux input. I found a site that has a adapter aux input that hooks up to the back of any car radio antenna...
Hi, I got a 97 gsx. I was driving my car today, engine warmed up, been driving it for 30 minutes. I get to work and cruising at 10 mph and my car starts braking with the anti-lock light flashing. Happened twice today. Any ideas on what it could be?
I have a 2g gsx. I changed out my fuel pump for a walbro 190 fuel pump. I tightned down the white ring nut pretty secure. As I tapped it one last time for that extra tightening, it started to seep out of the white ring nut. So I backed it off and its holding fine under idle but when I drive it...
I have a 97 gsx with a 6 bolt. I'm trying to put on a new cam/crank angle sensor on my car. It seems like a simple install but I am not 100% sure its correct. I researched on here but couldn't find much answers.Ok my first question is, the metal fitting inside the head where the cas...
