Dont you have a low fuel light? My cars gas gauge stops for some reason at a quarter tank too so I just go by my trip odometer and fuel light to know when to gas up.
I'v heard many times that underinflated tires are one of the biggest causes of bad fuel mileage. Dirty air filter too. I'v never really kept track of my mileage around town but I kept track of every tank on a recent trip from Boston to Miami and averaged 28 mpg for most of it. That was with...
Anyone know if the recirculation fitting changed when HKS came out with the version 2 ssqv? When you put the fitting that I recieved on, the cover wont go on all the way. The allen bolts dont even reach their holes. The instructions that came with the fitting show pictures of the old style ssqv...
Is that the normal sign of a bad tob? Also whats going to happen eventually? Right now the car drives and shifts fine it just makes a noise whenever you push in or let out the clutch. Is something going to break completly and I wont be able to drive the car? Sorry if these are dumb questions but...
Hey guys wondering if anyone could help me with this. Cars a 97 gsx, clutch was replaced 3 years ago with an act 2100. The last couple months the clutch has been making a short sqeaky noise when the clutch pedal is pushed in and then a much louder sqeak when you let it out. It doesnt feel any...
It was pouring out today and when I got in my car after work the whole headliner was wet and water was dripping all over the interior. Anybody else have this problem and how did you fix it?

I wouldnt even put another tip on there. Just put a peice of 3 inch pipe on it. Dont even give the cops anything shiny to see back there. With just a plain peice of pipe it will look bone stock. I feel bad for you canada guys. I just watched a street racing special on tv the other night. They...
Do a search on Vibrant resonators. They make a regular bullet resonator with a 3in inlet and outlet. Comes in 12 and 18in lengths. They also make a "super quiet resonator" that looks like a mini muffler.
Can anyone give me any idea's on what they used for a dumptube for a external wastegate? I've got a Agp RS49 and Tial 38. Can I go to home depot and get some piping and just bend it and weld it on? Im just looking for any suggestions anyone might have. This is my first turbo upgrade so Im kinda...
If your aiming for 400 awhp then I hope your not on too much of a budget. All this stuff adds up fast. I just got my Agp RS49 a couple weeks ago. I also ordered the new SBR manifold,Tial wastgate, AFC, injectors, ported o2 housing, intake pipe, etc. Im up to 3 grand on the credit card now I...
Ya I have my doubts sometimes about my mechanic. I read those pages from the stoptech website and I understand about material building up on the rotors but they started vibrating from the first stop I made after leaving the shop. One stop cant be enough to do that. Im very easy on the car too...
A couple weeks ago I had a set of Brembo slotted rotors installed on my car along with some Hawk pads. Well as soon as I hit the brakes the first time the brake pedal started pulsing in and out and the whole car started shaking. It was worse the faster I was going. So I took the car back to the...
I have the H34 and its definetly noticable. I would get the H34 cause then you could try venting and if it doesnt work out then you can just recirculate it. If you get the rfl and the car runs like ass theres nothing you can do.
Wow I wasnt planning on cutting my bumper that much! Beautiful car though. So where did you ed up putting the coolant container? And I assume the fog lights have to go?
I cant trap over 87 mph if my life depended on it. From my very first run in the 16's to my best of 14.9 my trap speed is always 86-87 mph. It drives me crazy.
Anyone have any experiance with this kit? I tried searcing but didnt find any info. I was originally going to go with the Hahn Racecraft kit but saw this kit which is cheaper and comes with short route piping.
I'v heard plenty of good reviews of turbo xs products. I have their H34 bov and boost controller and both work great. My brother also has some of their products on his wrx and no complaints there either.
I'd go for the 3 inch magnaflow. If you knew you were gonna get a cat you should have just got it as a option from rnr. Also so you know, your rnr turbo back wont have a seperate test pipe, it will just be a extra long down pipe that connects directly to the cat back part. So to but in the cat...
I just had a local mechanic install my Act a couple weeks ago. I think he charged me around 500 bucks labor. I'll have to find the reciet. I remember him saying it takes longer because the car was awd. Maybe I got ripped off I dont know. I know I definetly didnt trust myself to do it.
Are all the interior parts in my gsx that look like leather real? Im refering to the door panels, steering wheel, shift boot, etc. When I clean my interior I use armor all on the plastic and leather cleaner/conditioner on the leather but some things Im not sure just what material they are.
I just installed a Act 2100 clutch and flywheel on my 97 Gsx. The clutch pedal is really soft with not much pressure. It was like this before on the stock clutch but I figured it was old and worn and with a new aftermarket clutch it wouldnt be so mushy. Anyone have any suggestions? Would one of...
I ordered mine from Vision Autodynamics. Definetly dont recomend them. Took 2 months to get it. Which would be fine if they were straight with me and just told me that. But instead every week when I would call they would say it just got in and would be shipping the next day. I heard that for 8...
I was going by labor prices for a couple vendors such as slowboy and prostreet. They were both around 300. I wouldnt think a local shop would be too much more. I guess we'll see.
Lordpaxin your the man. I love the dirty slut reference. Anyway I have the 3 inch standard turboback. Other than it took a little while to get I have no complaints. It fit well, it looks just like the Apexi N1, its pretty loud especially when decellerating. I'd say go for it. Me612 how was their...
