Sway bar links and bushings seem to be one of the most common things that cause noticeable rattling. Definitely could be other things too but I'd start there. Also if the car has polyurethane bushings/mounts those are known to squeak.

If its a 1g turning the key won't prime the fuel system. It needs to see engine cranking to turn on the fuel pump. Not sure about 2g but its basically irrelevant. It's not like a diesel tho. It might crank a few seconds but you aren't going to...

So I’m getting to the point where I’m going to have to decide soon whether or not to have someone build my motor or do it myself. Gone back and forth over this throughout the years of reading and trying to learn. Would like to have someone build...

I think I speak for the forum, that we are here to HELP in any way. That is what makes this place so special!

Take a few weeks off and relax. This should be a hobby, not stressful.When you feel like getting to it, pull the crank and see if a machine shop measure the thrust surface for runout. Do you know if they line honed the mains? Did they use arp...

I'd try a different crank in the same block myself.Not trying to argue at all but after reading this thread a couple times and following it the crank is stuck in my mind as the most likely culprit. Unless the main cap was switched with one...

Let me tell you how good my foot tastes…You must be registered to see element.So, yes, the EU 1G came factory with non-sealed headlamps and used MS820962 (superseded by MS820968), 12V-60/55W H4 (HB2) halogens. Surprising, to say the least...

i run 10s with full interior and stock fuel tank. most guys only go fuel cell when low 9s or faster. if you plan on street driving the car at all just go oem tank

If you use the OEM wires and run them to your new pump it will only run when the OEM pump would run.

That tank vents thru the cap. Your car will stink like gas all the time.As far as the wiring you should just be able to just use the wiring from the old pump and extend the wires to where you mount the pump at. With an external pump mount it...

The water-cooled oil cooler unit, MD167787, is the same for all DSMs that used it.1G 7-bolt and 2G 7-bolt oil filter housings are interchangeable.

Are there any differences between the 7 bolt 1g & 2g oil coolers? I've got to order one since mine started leaking but seems like people are specifying 1g or 2g on ebay and they do list different part numbers for the 7 bolt OFH between 1g & 2g...

Mine was originally 1.5l na eu version but rhd since im from malta

Really like seeing other cars with 4g63 swaps. Was it originally a 1.5 turbo? It looks similar to the 2 door eagle summit we got in North America but better.

Definitely sounds like a valve stem seal issue. They could have been damaged during installation, or just some new/old parts that are hardened by age. Without installing them yourself, there's no way of knowing. A good check would be pulling...

A better video would make it easier to give advice on the sound, and a longer video at that with some idle time also.

After a full hour of making calls, I finally figured out how to file a claim. It definitely would have been faster to Google search how to do this, because nobody on their side knew how. I spent the last hour chasing my tail. Call the store, they...

I hate UPS so much. They've lost more packages of mine than USPS and Fedex combined, and I use UPS them a lot less.Just FYI if it wasn't fully insured all you'll usually get out of them is 100 bucks. And usually it's a fight to get that out of...

What do you think you'll need the liquid gasket for on the clutch system? I can't think of anything that would need RTV in the clutch system
