Okay, I think I'm making the right decision here. I'm FINALLY makin the jump from the 420a to the 4g63!! (Thank you, Thank you please hold the applause 
) Anyway, here are some problems with the car. Here are the details.
-1995 GS-T
-109K miles
All Stock except:
-K&N Style Filter Cone
-3" exhaust piping from the downpipe to the catalytic converter (from the cat back is stock b/c he didn't want to get crankwalk???)
-1g BOV
-Manual Boost Controller
-Coilovers with KYB struts
-Used Tranny with:
-Fanzo??? 7lbs lightweight flywheel
-Some kind of performance clutch BUT NOT AN ACT!!!!
Here is the problems. Test driving it I stalled 3 times because for some reason the idle throttle is set too low. This happened when he got the used tranny put in with the aftermarket flywheel and clutch. He said he didn't want the ACT clutch because of crankwalk??? Also the Speed Sensor Housing is cracked so the speedometer doesnt work right now. Also I'm pretty sure he told me that the compression across all 4 cylinders was 72 or 76 I can't remember. I'm totally a newbie when it comes to the 4g63 engine, could someone help answer these questions:
-Is the lightweight flywheel the reason the car drops idle and stalls??
-Will that flywheel hurt the tranny and all being so light??
-Could someone please explain crankwalk to me and how it is caused so I can avoid it??
-How much is it to replace the speed sensor housing or fix the speedo problem??
-What is good compression for these engines??
I would appreciate any help I can get. Like I said I'm very new to this turbo model and this engine. Thanx
