    2G New trans/Clutch issues

    Could be pivot ball/clutch fork like you're thinking, mine had a similar issue with engagement and it was my clutch fork being so old that the pivot ball almost wore all the way through it. See if you can determine how much play you are having in the fork. i also had a noname 6puck unsprung...

    2G Few questions on under dash connections on passenger side (2g)

    Getting car back together after 6 years in pieces - pretty close, but I'm trying to figure out what exactly these are or go to. I can't sleep at night until I know, haven't been very successful searching some of them. Any help or input appreciatedThe first is a multi plug i found tucked back...

    Celtic Blue awd swapped 2.0L hx-40

    Yeah at this point I don't mind paying to have it done, I let it get too out of hand so they are doing a good job restoring the car by powdercoating suspension parts, sandblasting my rusty rotors, i'm having them replace all wheel bearings etc now as well so we shouldn't have any problems once...

    Celtic Blue awd swapped 2.0L hx-40

    Big updateMy last mechanic took the awd parts off the donor, put my bare motor in the car and came to a halt there basically. I ended up at my tuners doorstep, 3sx/Performance Factory of Concord, NC. Many of you may be familiar with their work on the 3000gt/stealth platform, they held world...

    Street Build 95 GSX 800hp street monster Fp6466hta

    Beast car man, love your ingenuity. It's something special to see someone make their car how they want it. Seeing this makes me excited to complete my build in the near future. Good luck and hope to see you at the shootout!

    2G Cam recommendations for my setup?

    So your 800whp fwd eclipse beat a 600whp mustang and can spin 4th gear? Making sure im getting all this

    2G Cam recommendations for my setup?

    Yeah his budget was 600 and is now 400 and you guys are telling him to put in aggressive cams that generally come AFTER the big upgrades everyone has recommended. So yeah just ignore my post and go ahead with your small budget to build the s*** out of your head with cheap parts. I recommended...

    Pictures of wheel setups!!

    What width? That isnt +24 offset, your tires would be obviously sticking out. Any aftermarket wheel is pushing it on a dsm, the lower the offset and bigger width then they start looking goofy as hell without fender flaresThats pretty much what evo 8 wheels are

    1G Fuel cut question

    SD isnt necessarily an upgrade, just a must have for people who outflow the stock maf. Him switching to sd has nothing to do with his problem, don't know why you would recommend it. If he can't figure this problem out, why would he move to a more complicated system than the stock maf?
  16. mantega4g63

    2G Cam recommendations for my setup?

    Just stay stock. Youre going to spend a lot of money upgrading headstuds, springs, retainers etc when you could just have the fastest spooling cam - the stock cam. If you want more top end power, go for a 264/272 or something in that area. Youre kind of not ready for bigger cams. Im using...

    420A Fuel pump problem when hot

    Ive always heard with aftermarket fuel pumps to never let the car get too low on gas. Also, the fuel pump operates at its best when its above half a tank. When it gets low, all of that empty space just turns into hot air and is making your fuel pump work harder. Just keep more gas in the tank. I...

    Favorite color 2g? Cayenne

    I think polished would look better, i mean black and white is just that...black and white lol. What wheels are those? I can never tell with black wheels

    1G Clutch Decision

    South bend clutch from tmzperformance. At those power levels you need to suck it up and get something that will work like you want it to work. Dont buy a trash clutch and replace it. Get a bus pass and save up for the parts you need.

    Favorite color 2g? Cayenne

    I'm a celtic blue pearl guy myself, from the 96 eclipses Edit - yep everyone calls it purple but I have no idea why, theyre color retarded. When the sun hits it, it is pink all day

    Celtic Blue awd swapped 2.0L hx-40

    on my 16g setup I ran the fp manifold with a heat blanket, no ill effects from the heat on that setup. My hx40 setup is still under construction, I will be running a JMFab manifold with no exhaust wrap. I will keep you updated on that. Not too concerned on the underside of the hood regardless, I...

    Safe RPM's on a 2g turbo

    If your car is stock, drive it like its stock. Anything else and youre just waisting time and putting wear and tear on shit for an easy thrill. Get a honda if you want to drive a stock car like an asshole.

    built 2.0 vs built 2.3 (both 7 bolt)

    My vote is 2.0, there is a thread on the different types of motors you can go with and the pros and cons of each. You should check that out, isn't too hard to find but i'm on my phone. 2.3 will make loads of torque and is a nice option that i feel like honestly more people go with, but I feel...

    Resolved 2G Rear LSD axles. Where/How much?

    Look up dsm classifieds and any dsm page on facebook. Those groups are more active than tuners, craigslist, or anything i have found

    Starting issues - No / Doesn't / Won't Start - MERGED

    did you change the filter too? it could've sucked up dirt when your pump went and is letting fuel through but not enough to keep it running and maintain adequate fuel pressure. Just a thought. I saw you said you changed the pump but haven't mentioned the filter which concerns me.

    How to tell what size my TD05H turbo is?

    i would count the blades, the numbers on a compressor cover don't exactly mean for sure it is what it's supposed to be. I had an evo X 16g wheel stuffed inside of a 14b compressor cover with a 16g hotside.

    420A what the f is wrong with 420a?

    In the car world, you can pick TWO out of three things: Cheap, reliable, and fast. The 420a is very cheap, and very reliable. Theyre just not meant for power. You can make power with anything if you jump through enough hoops, but when you put the 420a next to the legendary 4g63, its easy to say...

    2G I want answers on rear LSD options

    So yeah yeah i've heard you can machine out the pumpkins of a non-lsd 2g rear end and stuff it with a mechanical evo 8 or 9 LSD which is a superior lsd to our viscous offerings. But I also hear us 2g guys can put a evo 3 mechanical LSD into our LSD rear ends? I'm all for mechanical LSD because...
