    my 1g just died i need a rebuild

    Hey brother, it's unfortunate for your engine failure, but you need a little more info. Does the engine turn over? Not sure if you meant the oil filter was torn up? Or throwing oil out? First thing is find exactly where the engine is losing oil. Then fix it if it can be fixed. If not you might...

    New Stereo Build

    I concur that a 12 inch woofer is a deeper boom that actually isn't louder but more powerful. I can't use a spare so there is lots of room but I want a lower baffle that only a 10 inch woofer so I can use the hatch for groceries or a weekend bag for my wife and I. This new script lost all your...

    That video jacks has for the adjustment has to have been done in the 80's because it's so blurry and no close ups of the adjustments so really can't do anything with it.

    Can't find the tick

    Interesting, but I would look towards maybe injectors which can cause a ticking noise. If it's more a knock, your in trouble could bearings. Does the tick get louder as you raise the throttle and rpm? Take a video.

    In Toronto Magnus is king 7.85 2g, I believe. He's one of the originals in dsm and has stayed there by following his own drum. Some have problems with him, I personally call him a friend. He's been focusing on r35s but still has love for dsm's that are not rusted through.
