  1. WTB: RR Brake Caliper E-Brake Bracket

    Looking for the e-brake bracket/arm/elbow that attaches to a right (passenger) rear brake caliper.I recently replaced the caliper and returned my core with that bracket still attached, not realizing the new one didn't have it until it was too late... The truck had already taken the core away...
  2. Right Rear Caliper Continues to Seize About Once Per Year

    I have replaced my right rear caliper about once per year for the past 3-4 years.What could be causing this?- Bad brake lines? - e-brake cable issue?Secondly, should I replace it with a $90 one from Advance or is there an equally effective alternative?
  3. Reconnected PCV System = lots of oil smoke

    I reinstalled my PCV system, because ever since I had some oil leaks repaired around the oil filter housing/cooler, my dipstick has been popping out under the littlest amount of boost pressure.I thought it could be due to the fact that since positive crank case pressure is no longer leaking...

  7. Oil Residue Around Exhaust Manifold

    There appears to be oil residue on the exhaust manifold near where the manifold meets the head. By residue, I mean it looks like oil is blowing by/leaking and catching dust/particulate.At idle I've noticed some nice plumes/clouds of smoke, especially at take off, every once in a while. The...
  8. Voltage Surging/Spiking While Driving

    Over the past couple of months my car has started doing something that it has never done before as long as I have owned it.I have a voltage gauge on my A-pillar. I was driving around town a few months ago and all of a sudden, my voltage went from ~14.4 to 18+ for a few seconds. It may have...
  9. WTB: Nice (preferrably adjustable) BOV

    Hi,I need a nice (preferably adjustable) blow-off valve. I would like an APS, but I was told they don't make them anymore, so they could be harder to come by.I have had an HKS, 1G Forge, crushed 1G, and currently have an Evo 9/10 bov and I've had compressor surge on all of them. I think it...

  15. Annoying ABS..

    I've had my ABS deactivated (unplugged big plug under the hood) for some time, but I was recently informed that I won't pass State Inspection with an ABS light on.So,1) I've heard there is a fuse I can pull. Will that turn off the light or do I have to manually pull the bulb from the gauge...

  18. clunking sound/feel at stop

    Riddle me this, friends.Every once in a while when I come to a stop, I hear and feel what I would imagine it would sound/feel like if I were towing something small, as the momentum of it transfers from the rear to the front, taking up any minimal slack space between the car and the...
  19. ABS cv joint/axle?

    So, ever since I changed my CV joint (axle) on the front passenger side, my ABS would freak out, so I just unplugged it and have been living without it for quiet some time. A friend of mine commented that I probably didn't get an "ABS axle," which is causing my ABS sensor (vehicle speed...
  20. minor start up gremlins

    Quick questions:For a while now on COLD starts (not cold outside, just 'cold' motor) my galant will crank, sputter die, but start right up on the second try. Not sure why. Fuel pressure off maybe? Something else?Now, I've developed this nice belt squeal for a few seconds after cold start...

  22. two electrical issue symptoms

    I've got two different electrical symptoms going on:1) Recently when I've gone to start my car it won't start turning over at first. I hear the fuel pump and relays clicking and everything sounds right, but it won't start. If I take the keys out and try it again a few times and pray, then...
  23. coolant found here would mean?

    I changed the oil in the galant last week and noticed some coolant on what appears to be part of the housing and I believe the lower timing assembly adjacent to it. Not enough to really puddle, but enough to notice. I can't identify where it could be leaking from. Any thoughts? Within the...
  24. galant won't start

    My galant won't start. It's been sitting for about 1.5 months.New BPR6ES plugs, gapped down to .026 New xact wires New optima red topEvery time I check the plugs they are wet and covered in a dark dirty fluid. All I can figure is that my 880s are dumping way too much fuel, and it's killing...
  25. weird weather, took some pics

    It was a relatively nice day today, but the sky was menacing. My friend Ryan and I figured we'd take our chances at some auto shooting. Here are a few of my favorites...It's good to be back in America. I
  26. double check my turbo accessories order

    Alrighty, I finally took the plunge and bought a ported MHI Evo3 16G, woot!So, Im in the process of making a list of all the little accessories that I'll need so that I don't end up doing this in the middle of the install. The turbo is coming with a turbo-manifold gasket, so thats the only...
  27. studderbox boost

    I was just wondering if I should be seeing boost while Im on keydiver's studderbox around 5k rpm. I think Im around -5mmHg vac I know it's a revlimiter, not anti-lag, but is that normal?
  28. drivetrain fluids question

    Do I want to use BG Sincroshift (going in the trans) in the T-case also, or Redline 75W90 (going in the rear diff)?This VFAQ says to use the same Redline MT90 that's left over from the trans, in your t-case.However, on RRE's site, they say to use the Redline 75W90 in both the differential...

  33. Jonvr4

    I cant believe there isnt a Good Guy thread for Jon yet. The only one I could find was this one where he was incorrectly called Jon4G63. Anyway, I got my non-cruise cable intact and fast. More importantly, him and Ricky are always around to answer my galant questions on AIM. True gvr4...
