  1. FS: 91 GVR4 Summit White 1079/2000 White Plains, NY $5,500

    Somewhat unrelated side note: 1078 (my 1st) was also Summit White. No sunroof, though.Ren
  2. Sold: 1987 Honda CRX Si Rally Car "Fireball" $2500, Norfolk, VA

    Not that I know of. I bought it in like April 2002 and trailered it from Maine to Norfolk, where it was shipped to Iceland. It's been here since June 2003, when I cam back from Iceland.
  3. Sold: 1987 Honda CRX Si Rally Car "Fireball" $2500, Norfolk, VA

    Honestly, it will take a lot of love to get this little guy back to race-ready condition, and, thanks to many Maine winters, would probably be a better organ donor than project car. However, he has proven to be a truly capable car, and in the hands of the right driver (my co-driver in Iceland...
  4. Anyone have a ClutchNet clutch set? (also 90 vs 91 shift cables)

    Sorry for the delay in responding. I replaced the grinding 1-2 tranny and used the newly fixed ClutchNet setup. (Unfortunately I replaced the tranny with one that grinds in 1 through 4 instead of just 1 and 2, but that's another story.)That fixed the problem for the most part. I was still...
  5. Anyone have a ClutchNet clutch set? (also 90 vs 91 shift cables)

    Apparently the problem was in the design of the clutch disc. I sent it back to ClutchNet and they fixed it:I called and the guy I spoke with (Russian or some other East European accent) said they replaced the spring housing with an open design. They must have used shorter spacer rivets...
  6. SOLD! 1991 GVR4 1078/2K Roller $1000 obo Norfolk, VA

    Sorry, just sold it today to someone local.Ren
  7. Anyone have a ClutchNet clutch set? (also 90 vs 91 shift cables)

    Cables are all the same from 91-up, IIRC. I have a 90 trans in mine, so the cables needed to be shortened (or swapped for a set of 90 cables, of which I realized after the fact that I had TWO sets... d'oh!).The clutch pedal was adjusted correctly, and the pedal assembly was just rebuilt by...
  8. Anyone have a ClutchNet clutch set? (also 90 vs 91 shift cables)

    Well, I swapped out for the gently used Exedy stock clutch shown above, and the problem went away. There is still some grinding in 1st and 2nd, but that's more likely attributed to bad synchros; the reverse crunch is gone. I can get 1st and 2nd to not grind, if I give enough time for the gears...
  9. SOLD! 1991 GVR4 1078/2K Roller $1000 obo Norfolk, VA

    New price. I'd really like to send this to a good home, but if no interest, it'll get parted out and crushed.Offers?
  10. Anyone have a ClutchNet clutch set? (also 90 vs 91 shift cables)

    I pulled the stock Exedy clutch from 1078 for comparison. The PP has almost the exact same dimensions, but the disc is different by a good amount. See pictures below:The major area of concern seems to be the distance between the surface of the rear spring cover plate to the...
  11. Anyone have a ClutchNet clutch set? (also 90 vs 91 shift cables)

    This is in response to my thread in the Newbies section: clickCliff's notes:91 GVR4 90 Tranny 91 xfer case 91 shifter with modified 91 cables ClutchNet Red 2x PP and Kevlar discHaving problems shifting into 1st, 2nd, and reverse.OK, I replaced the clutch pedal assembly with...
  12. SOLD! 1991 GVR4 1078/2K Roller $1000 obo Norfolk, VA

    I'm selling the car that introduced me to Galant VR-4's and this forum. 1078 was originally white, but got a paint job due to being rear-ended. The repair work was pretty good, meaning the panels are all straight but you can tell it's not original (as if the color wasn't enough of a giveaway)...
  13. 1st and 2nd gear grind

    Well, after looking at 1078's trans, there's no need to shim the pivot ball, as the release fork is already in a better position.I called Shep, and the guy there said the GVR4 clutch pedal assemblies are unique, i.e. AWD DSM is not the same. I would assume they would know for sure, since they...
  14. 1st and 2nd gear grind

    I just checked the pedal height, clevis free play, and pedal free play. They were all a little off. However, I adjusted everything back to factory specs, and I'm still having the same issues... 1st, 2nd, and reverse grinding. So, I went and adjusted the clutch master pushrod out as far as it...
  15. 1st and 2nd gear grind

    Master and slave are brand new. I've watched the slave push on the release arm while someone else pushes the pedal, and everything seems to be working like it's supposed to.I don't have an adjustable slave rod.
