Yes, they are the same.

When buying the gst ask for maintenence records. If they dont have any, that should be your next step with the car before you start modding it.

I like it just because of the fact that you can buy a replacement disc for it rather than having to buy a whole new flywheel.

Test the alternator. I had that happen on a car and it ended up being a internal short in the alternator. It made all the relays freak out and the horn would stay on until I disconnected the battery.

I would test the coolant temp sensor and make sure it is within spec. Is it hard starting at all times or jus when you go to start it in the morning?

Id try adjusting the cas first. If that doesnt fix your problem, then check base timing and make sure it is dead on. I had a similar problem when one of my cars was one tooth off.

If your trying to do autocross I recommend a fixed back seat and a nice set of 4 or 5 point harnesses. That should make you feel plenty safe.

You can adjust the headlights....there are 2 phillips heads on the back for each bulb. The problem with the hid kit that you have is that the light is uncontrolled. If you look at a car with true hids it is in a projector lense and on the high end cars they have a thin curtain on the edge of...

The whining noise that you are hearing is the blades rubbing up against the wall of the turbo. The turbo is on the way out. I'd recommend replacing it especially if its the original turbo on the car.

Yes a 95-96 engine will fit into a 97. As far as your cas sensor question goes id recommend setting the 95-96 motor up for the 97 engine harness. Only difference is instead of the cam sensor being in the cam gear on the 95....it is on the end of the cam on the 97. If you have any more...

When I installed them on my car I used the galant knuckles and it is a very easy swap. Brackets are possible but you will have to make sure the spacing is correct. Also if you are considering doing the brake conversion, it will change the offset that you will need. So you will need either...

Hey, crankwalk does not have a specific mileage that its gonna happen at. It really depends on the motor....ive heard cases where it has happened with low mileage cars, then cars that have 100k+ on them and then others get lucky and it never happens to them. As far as mods go...yes you could...
