So I got my hands on a power steering pump recently, and want to get p/s back in my car as it came without the pump. I believe all the lines are still in tact on the car. Wondering what I need to reinstall this pump other than belt and fluids...or any other steps i have to do.

Ok, so i tried to search a bit and didn't see anything conclusive. Can someone inform me the important factors in buying a universal roof rack, ie the length or what kind of feet are necessary if I'm not using an oem rack? Or what other car racks are compatible with ours? I've never even touched...

Wanted to see what speed/rpm you guys cruise at on the highway, and in reference to mpg.I cruise 65pm @~3k rpm and get a mixed 20pmg trying to stay out of boost as much as possible on the highway. 205/60/16 tires & E3 16G.

Was on my way to a very important wedding, and 5min away from the church, and of course 3min from start time, I hear my exhaust get much louder while sitting at a red light. I decide to pull into a parking lot, and hear my exhaust scraping on the ground. Getting under I see the piping right in...

Doing valve cover gasket, finally got to see my cams. Any idea on what they are as is? Also anyone say if the springs are stock? Been probably 7 year since i last took a valve cover off one of these.

Ok, i can't believe i just noticed this a week ago. does this mean ive had the wrong downpipe this whole time? I thought the bolt broke, and upon closer peeking, shot these pics.

Wondering which VR4's you guys consider most prominent here, or I guess inspire you. Dragging my feet a bit on fixing things, esp with finances at this time of year...and with these cars, I get motivated by seeing some of the finished products. Obviously 1051 is the most well known one I'm sure...

Just wanted to ask the guys w rain guards on their cars...how good do they work? Especially the guys who have to drive with their windows cracked due to no a/c in the rain...are these worth seeking out?

Thought I'd just ask here, after searching for a bit couldn't find a straight answer. Were our USDM seats designed by AMG?

So one of my younger friends (who i consider my kid brother) is upgrading his Evo X w some basic mods like hard pipes, exhaust and tune for 350whp. I know there has been a GVR4 vs Evo 8/9 convo...wondering what you guys think of the X, and more importantly what a GVR4 needs to be modded with to...

Had to help my cousin get his droptop 300z to the Another Level show in Schaumburg this past Saturday. Thought some of you might enjoy. I was only in the vendor/vip area and forgot about the other cars in the parking lot, however I had a lot on my mind anyways. I just regret not being able to...

anyone's green VR4 in Logan Square part of Chicago 8pm tonight near the Police Dept? My roommate came in and told me he spotted a green one just around the corner from where we live.

thought i'd put this up here for time's sake for the next day or so. looking for a front wheel, 4 lug hub for gvr4 w abs, hopefully near Chicago.

Curious what guys have done if they needed a new front wheel hub. Car is apart at shop for a bearing job right now, and i didn't think it might need a hub....and lo and behold it does. Even tried to get a price from a dealer here, steep at 200, but also 2 month wait?? Is there an alternative to...

Guys im absolutely embarrassed to post this because it's nothing more than negligence. Anything more than meeting the eye that should be checked? These A arms easy to find?

Just wanted to hear some of your horror stories w your VR4's. My current ownership of 957 has been better than with 555 and 372, I've had my just shoot me moments. One thing I like about forums is reading what others have found to be the biggest pain in the butts to repair, so I can be...

so diagnosing another no start. my question is regarding the CAS. Ive verified I have spark, but im wondering if the CAS can allow spark but not fuel? Or if it's bad it won't allow neither? I can't even smell fuel in the exhaust while cranking, fuel lines feel full also. Back of my mind wonders...

ok, so i found out my HKS Super Sound bov is leaking big time- through the horn area at idle. It was at night when i opened the hood, and i thought the fan was on there was that much air flowing, and idling at 3k! I have zero experience with blow off valves. Wondering if anyone knows if I can...

I remember first seeing a gvr4 when I was 18 -1996 cruising a used car lot. Had no idea what I was looking at, but it looked sharp and the vr4 badge told me it wasn't run of the mill. I first test drove one a couple years later on another lot, but it wasn't really stock and I remember it idling...

Wondering if anyone here can identify this plug- the unplugged one. it's alongside the driver's side wall, behind the washer reservoir and next to the p/s unit. Came out to my car today, battery was drained, idiot lights would barely light up dimly, no crank, and all i hear is this plug buzzing...

this is an idle question, but split up into a couple different ones. I am waiting on my Keyspan serial to usb adapter to come in to hook up data logger. keep in mind my car runs pretty well...driveability not a factor here. just trying to iron out this issue.symptoms:1. most of the...

Thought it'd be a simple situation, but it's a basic battery vs alternator q. I was driving home after doing some light work on the car the other night (oil, headlight bulb, tightening ic piping couplers). at one point the voltmeter on the turbo timer started flashing 11.4v. I was cruising 70mph...

what do you guys think about changing the paint colors on our cars? No big deal or changing a major personality of the car? i always loved white...and this is my 3rd nile black vr4. down the road i'm sure it wouldn't be hard to get it painted white, but i kinda feel like it would change part of...

Any new tips for doing the fuel pump? Car's been down since Thursday, and I've been regularly spraying the nuts with Liquid Wrench in the inevitable battle w rusty studs since then, waiting for the walbro 190 to show up. The tank only has a couple gallons in it I'm assuming.

wondering how many guys' VR4's here are built enough to keep up or beat liter bikes? I imagine that'd be my way long term end goal, and wondering generally the minimum it'll take to get there.

gents, what would some of you do to strengthen the drivetrain? Is there an upgrade path for this? I'm talking for a daily driver that can take some abuse- not to beat on them per se, but so that you can launch them once in awhile and drive them hard with some peace of mind. I've never actually...

Had a hell of a time doing my fuel filter yesterday and almost gave up on it, because the bottom nut was rounded already and the 14mm flare wrench was not grabbing it. It was too late to go to a parts store if i cut the line, and i really wanted to get it replaced. So I used a craftsman...

So my VR4 stalled yesterday and couldn't start again. It was running fine, then stalled. Cranked just fine, smelled fuel but had to leave her to go to a long night of work. Had to push her into a parking spot and today, I tried to run codes with a multimeter. The needle just oscillated back and...

Has anyone gone from coil on plug setup back to the normal ignition setup? May need to make a decision tonight. Coil on plug setup replaces the wires, coil and transistor correct? Anyone feel one setup fails more frequently than the other?

let me preface this by saying that i'm technologically not brilliant. I stick to the simple stuff. I was looking through my old parts stash from previous cars, and noticed i still have a palm pilot from my 2nd vr4 that was used for data logging. I definitely don't remember how to use the palm or...

Just going through 957 that i picked up couple weeks ago. Wanted to ask the org what they'd do to tidy up/fiddle this engine bay, or if they see anything glaringly wrong. I've also never seen the intake routed that far back.

It's been a while since I've had my last vr4. What's worse is that I was able to locate both of my previous ones (both in wisconsin #372/2k, #555/2k) a few months ago. I 'm getting the itch again to go back to the dark side and thinking of dumping my 5 liter Mustang for one again. Back of my...

Just wondering if the owners of 372/2000 or 555/2000 are on here. I owned both cars a couple years ago (Illinois), and wondering the fate of them. Let's just say seller's remorse. Thanks.-David

Was wondering exactly how much of a benefit there is in getting a dyno tune over a wideband (street) tune. Thanks guys.
