    97 GSX Build

    Well English didn't offer to fix their mistake but they did offer me a free tune as a way to say sorry lol. If they wouldn't have installed worn out timing belt parts then I wouldn't be here in this situation...On with the good! I wired up the fuel pump rewire, and installed the fuel lab...

    Walking Timing Belt on all new motor? Pictures inside!

    Yea I thought about that, I was thinking that maybe the oil pump sprocket is moving out a bit from its center axis, but with the car running it looks good, I don't see any wobble. And when I had the belt off I tried to check for play on the oil pump sprocket but it seemed good to me.I have...

    Timing Belt rubbing on oil pump guide/washer

    The Engine is in the car so I can't get a nice pic of the whole side of the motor, what did you want to see?Not sure what you mean by correct side. English Racing installed the crank trigger plate so I would hope they installed it correctly. The idler pulley is on the side close to the...

    Timing Belt rubbing on oil pump guide/washer

    The belt was brand new OEM from JNZ tuning and was still in original packing so the belt should be ok, there are no rips in the new belt right now but the old belt that snapped developed 3-4 small rips all on the timing belt cover side.

    Fuel Pressure question.

    Hello I am in the process of upgrading some fuel components. I just did the rewire on the 255 fuel pump, so now I am trying to get the pressure back to where it was before the rewire. My question here is this...When I am messing around with the fuel pressure regulator I can change the fuel...

    Timing Belt rubbing on oil pump guide/washer

    Hello, I did a timing belt job on my 97GSX with a 6-bolt motor. After driving around for about 100miles I took the timing cover off to make sure everything looked ok and found something wrong. The timing belt is rubbing on the oil pump sprocket washer/guide piece; and also is all the way on...

    Walking Timing Belt on all new motor? Pictures inside!

    Hello fellow DSM'ers. So 3 months ago my fully built English Racing long block snapped its timing belt after only 20k miles.So with no help coming from English (I tried), I had the head rebuilt with new valves by Garage 808 (local shop) and did the rest of the work myself. (for more on that...

    Well English Racing called me on Friday August 28th and said they want to "make this right" and that they would call me on Monday after talking with Lucas... well that was a while ago, it is now September 11th and I still haven't heard from them...I just don't get it, I am a very factual person...

    2g Rear Seat Belt Issue

    Ok I have searched but didn't find anything, tried Goggle and all that. I am sure someone has had to deal with this before. Basically at one time I took out my rear seat belts, now I am re installing them, the problem is that when I go to pull on the belt it instantly locks up. I haven't...

    2G Outlander brakes

    Just bought the front outlander brackets, $72 a pair from amazon. Got the outlander Centric Rotor for $36 each from local place. They didn't ask me what model outlander it was for so they are probably all the same for that year... looking forward to better stopping since I needed to replace my...

    Sound system help?

    I would say that I have been there and done it with all the crazy stereo setups in my 10 years on the road since age 16. I pride myself in my electronics. Sounds like you just want a nice sounding stereo and not something that will knock down picture frames in the neighbors house. My advise...

    No Clutch Disengagement After Rebuild

    I know, but I have never had a problem taking the bolts back out, just a quick snap and they come right out. Blue would be better thought I agree.

    Opinions on my fog lights?

    For the record, beside the fog lights, I think your car looks nice :thumb:

    No Clutch Disengagement After Rebuild

    That pressure plate needs to sit flush to the flywheel with no gap. It is normal to not be able to push the pressure plate fully onto the flywheel by hand, when you torque the bolts in the proper order (star pattern) then there will be no gap.x2 on throwing away the manual that says to...

    Opinions on my fog lights?

    6 bolt exhaust manifold stud install

    Correct the torque spec for the nuts is 20-22fts lbs, but I thought you were talking about the torque of the studs going into the head itself because you said stud and not nut :)OEM studs are the black oxide color, not shiny. The OEM nuts are copper.

    6 bolt exhaust manifold stud install

    It's the bottom middle stud, that goes threw the oil passage, on your 6-bolt motor.To get the studs installed you will need to use two nuts backed up to each other, then you put a wrench onto each nut, then you squease the wrench handles together as you turn them into the head. You will get...

    1G spun rod bearing. options?

    English Racing (very reputable) built my longblock and they cleaned and reused my oil pump. I wanted a new one, but they said that if nothing was wrong with it and all the gears were good that it will be just fine. 4K miles on the motor now and no problems. It was a rebuild from a spun rod...

    I got the new rims on the car! Got an alignment!

I was...

    Idle drops significantly when a/c on

    You really need to do a boost leak test. At full throttle you may/maynot notice anything wrong with the car. It is at idle that you really notice the effects of a boost leak. 2G Turbo DSM Boost Leaks -How to test and fix

    Idle drops significantly when a/c on

    Do a boost leak test. Boost leaks can really throw off your car trying to idle with different loads.
