So ever since I bought the car I only have headlights and dash lights when the ignition is ONDash lights and brake lights would light up when hitting clutch or break. Regardless of ignitionI took my clutch pedal out and in the the other day and a day later my dash lights stopped working...

So batting my damn leaky yoke, I’ve RTV the inside and jb weld the outside.At this point I think I’m gonna order a spare used yoke and pound out the frost plug and replace with a welsh plug.I was just told of this method and wish I found it earlier. Seems pretty straight forward.Is this...

So on the end of a 4 hour road trip my car started acting up.First is sounds like popcorn or some type of popping in my dash , then comes the hesitation, then the complete power lossAt first it just felt like the o2 sensor died and cursing and idle was running like sh*t unless more than 40%...

So I’m running SD with a vented Greddy Type s , was wondering if I recirculate it will it keep the turbo spooled while shifting?Idk if it’s because I haven’t driven this car in awhile and am not used to it, but I feel like I’m losing all my boost between shifts, mostly between 1-3 unless I...

So I just got my transmission back and I played with the gear shifters and the input shafts and everything moved before I installed it,I just tried starting it up right quick after installing everything but before torquing( transmission and transfercase torqued)Started up fine but I was...

Just looking to see what everyone prefers,I’ve read that with sprung discs the springs can pop out on you locking you in or out of gear, I’ve heard the unsprung discs crack if you daily them.I’ve heard unsprung discs are hard on your transmission and I’ve heard sprung discs are hell on...

This is the worst thing that’s ever happened in my 10 years of owning this car and I’m just so sad at this point.I took the time to do the work myself and installed a brand new XTD flywheel PP and clutch and while shifting from 3-4 I must have Misshifted or something because I got locked in...

So I just swapped the clutch and when I took off the transfercase only two of the long bolts were mounting it.So I grabbed a spare long bolt but the first few threads in the transmission are blown so it just rotates, I pulled the TC down and inserted the bolt into the tranny alone and it...

Looking for pics of the extreme psi 10an oil return line kit installed.I’m wondering if I should of left the steel braided hose long enough to loop around and hang under the car a hair or if it’s better to cut the SS line to 2-3” like I’ve done.It came with enough length to bolt up but just...

So I looked up a 1g ecu pinout with colors ( attached ) and a good amount of my wires are different colors or lacking pins/stripes.On another note there’s a - green wire/white pin stripe / red dash - WIRE just hanging not connected to ecu at all, the pin out says this should be my idle...

After converting to speed density If I understand this correctly, I should only get a straight barb fitting for the PCV if my crankcase pressure is high.I’m spitting oil out of the oil cap under high boost.I should be able to run a hose from the PCV to a catch can along with breather hose ...

So I’m paying a local DSM mechanic to do the work,The car has been sitting for 7 years, was a fresh motor before I shut her down.Main things it needs are the -Fuel rail bolts drilled out, ( because I broke two of them off) -oil pan resealed - shifter bushings / clutch pedal adjustment (...

So I haven’t started her up in a year but I’m puttin her back on the road as my daily driver again because I need a new vice for all my time...I hooked everything back up and tried to fire her up but only cranking away.So My guess was that the 3 year old gas is probably bad, but before...

So I got a pin hole in my water pump outlet pipe the large one that the turbo coolant return line comes out of.I took it to a friend to get it welded but they said it immediately ran because it was so thin and rusted out. He tryed to patch it but it ended up going soda can thin.I searched...
