  1. Installing new engine - Engine and trans out the top, bottom? or just the engine

    Curious what methods folks have found most effective. I am putting in a new engine and clutch. No work on the transmission. Does it come out easily enough through the top by itself or do I go ahead and pull the whole engine/trans together? Or...out the bottom?Thanks for your contributions...
  2. FS: left front Motor mount -Torque Solution - sold

    I used it for 100 miles and the wife complained she didn't like the extra vibration. So back to factory! All yours for 50 bucks and I'll cover the postage too.907-885-7700 [email protected] hating life trying to integrate a photo here. Wish it was easier. click
  3. when upgrading to a 2.2 stroker, should I upgrade to bigger injectors?

    It comes with a Stage2 head and upgraded turbo and exhaust manifold, but still running a stock ECM. I understand I may have just walked into having to support this fresh engines with more and more stuff (should have just rebuilt the factory one!). But I was checking with the experts on their...
  4. WTB: 2.5" or 3" downpipe? Anyone?

    Decent shape is fine with me. Or any other exhaust component further down the line?Thanks, Scott
  5. Just bought a stroker and have a head question

    He built this a few years ago and never finished assembly. He has no paperwork on it but a few notes. The bottom end has Arias stuff all together in the block (I'll post about that later. But the head with the 3 layer metal gasket is sure pretty. Apparently, he has some nice cams and titanium...
  6. WTB: Built engine or partially built or some rods and pistons?

    Real simple. Call me lazy, but maybe someone has a ready to go engine...or a long block or short block that needs little or a little something? Mine lost a seal and then lost the oil. So, lots of swarf throughout before it locked up. My poor 92 is due for another 2.0 or maybe a stroker. What...
  7. Is a JDM VR4 2.0 engine any better than a US one?

    Since I blew mine up, , I was thinking about dropping in a 50K mile JDM one. It has this "Cool" "Cyclone" intake on it and all too! It comes with the ECM and transmission. So I was wondering if there was any advantage from the Jap market. I realize the Jap ECU will request better octane, so...
  8. WTB: driver's automatic seatbelt assembly - the motor part

    Anyone? I had a large driver in my car who didn't realize that the seatbelt clicking away and not all the way engaging down was not correct. After 15 miles, she pretty much stripped it out, I am afraid. Geez. Last time I load the car out to a fatty.
  9. Scott in Alaska - ice racing with my 92

    Thought you might enjoy a couple vids of me and then my daughter racing this winter.clickclick
  10. WTB: Mud Flaps - one or two or all four!

    Anyone have them?ThanksScott, in Alaska
  11. just need to know if this is a 3 or 4 bolt rear end (pic)

    I have read that some 92 models came with a 4 bolt rear end. Although mine is a 92, this looks like a 3 bolt one if I am going by axles bolts. Also, is there an LSD spool I can put in mine to minimize all the work of changing it? I need more traction in ice racing.
  12. white line swaybar sold by user, bobdole? Just looking for one and heard maybe

    Just looking for a stiffer rear swaybar. I can get one on ebay, but if someone here has one or is a dealer, I'd rather go direct.Scott
  13. looking for a source on a downpipe with cat delete included

    I see a variety of them on ebay for Talons and Eclipse cars. But shall i assume our Galant will be different? This is for a factory placement of an upgraded (larger) downpipe. While I am at it, I might as well eliminate my 160K mile cat!
  14. installing a parking brake cable - tips and pics

    First of all, get that rear end up on jack stands and remove the tire on the side you're working on. RockAuto has the cheapest cables I have found. In fact, I have a right side one I didn't use if someone wants it! The difference in lenghts is about an inch and half length. The inside...
  15. WTB: Test pipe for cat

    Anyone have one? Thanks, Scott
  16. Are these rear fender bolt holes for a mudflap or....

    They sure seem intentional. But on the right side rear inner quarter panel wheelwell, there are only two bolt holes.
  17. radio refurbishment?

    My radio works and my CD player works, but only intermittently will sound come out. They don't appear to have every been removed, but I was wondering if there was a source to fix these guys. Or is it best to put them in a box for the next owner who wants a completely factory set up and put in a...
  18. downshifting is smooth as silk, upshifting is notchy - normal?

    I have no problem engaging into any gear, but shift up anything but nice and slow, it will click in right after you feel the resistance. Downshift is so sweet you think you're downshifting a Honda. zero noise, zero resistance, no matter how fast you go. Is this normal or a sign of something...
  19. mystery plug behind intake

    I wasn't the one who put this engine in after doing the balance shaft delete. But he also deleted the A/C. The plug I am holding is labeled A/C. But to the right is on a wire that further down is labeled Knock Sensor. It certainly goes down to a connected knock sensor and all may be well. I'd...
  20. Parking light//headlight gremlin

    This 92 Galant VR4 car has hardly been molested at 160K. But I knew my front right blinker wasn't blinking. I then discovered I had no blinky power even going to it - not even with the hazards on. Looking further, I discovered that without the key on, parking AND headlights won't go on. Not even...
  21. what is this about the MAF upgrade screw?

    I have read that you can remove the lower honeycomb screen and there is a screw in there somewhere you can turn out a bit. I don't see no screw, do you?
  22. Need good part number or source for Ebrake cables

    My left cable is busted. I can find a couple different on eBay at different prices promising they will fit. But I'd rather order the right one first! These are the ones promised to fit. Any guidance on my 92?Raybestos BC94325 WAGNER BC130764
  23. RPM gauge not steady, yet RPM's are solid

    What causes this bouncy needle. It mostly happens at idle where I am sitting at 800rpm and the needle will bounce up to 1200 and back again, yet the engine sounds very solid. It is more solid as I rev it, but the needle doesn't stay dead on at all like other gauges I have observed. Thoughts?
  24. couple vacuum line questions with pics 92 Galant

    I just purchased a VR4 and love it. Previous owner lost his balance shaft belt and....yeah, lost the rest. So now it is balance shaft deleted and EGR and A/C deleted. No CE lights and it runs well. No ABS light, boost is strong, etc. But I have a few items that don't seem resolved. A little...
