  1. Life without a GVR4

    I just wanted to post this for people who were in a similar situation as I was.It sucks...I had two GVR4s one for over four years and the other maybe two. I was on the fence about selling mine and life situations happened and it seemed like the right thing to do at the time, I wish I hadn't...
  2. Glutton for punishment ( I may be getting back into another VR4)

    For the first in five years I have been free from these cars.I thought it would be a lower stress,cheaper lifestyle but I ended up missing these damn cars too much. The other night I'm browsing around craigslist and what are the odds I find someone who wants to trade a galant Vr4 for a car...

  4. SOLD !FS: Feeler thinking about parting ways with my galant for $4500 Price drop

    The only reason I've been thinking of selling my car is I no longer have a garage and I feel there may be someone out there that can take better care of this car and keep it rust free then me. I absolutely love this car and I will try my best to have it stored before next winter.Its...
  5. My other galant, let me show you it,,,,

    Just a little back story, I'm bored and feel like writing.I've had a thing for galant Vr4s since I first laid eyes on one, and realized what they were and stood for. I wasn't new to cars its been a lifelong obsession but around ten years old I started to grow a fascination with smaller...
  6. Methanol setup for my vr4

    Just wondering what your experiences are with meth injection. I have the ability to activate a solenoid at a certain boost or RPM level with my speed density setup. Im not looking to make crazy power I just want a little added knock protection and maybe squeeze a little bit more power through...
  7. new ecu needs new isc motor?

    Just got my car running on a rebuilt ecu from zdr electronics, huge warning on the cover says "replace isc before use". What's up wit DAT?
  8. WTB: 63 or 64 tooth ring gear from evo 2-3 trans.

    Also need pinion gear from that trans as well.
  9. center diff bearings

    A friend of mine had his center diff welded with bearings attached and due to the heat from welding now needs them replaced. The trans is from a 91 gvr4 which I don't have the vin to order new bearings but I could use my 92 vin. He is all worried there will be a difference between the 91-92...
  10. WTB: EPROM ecu for 92 gvr4

    Anyone have one in good working condition
  11. will non EPROM ecu work in 92 EPROM vr4?

    Found lots of info from people who are switching to EPROM for obvious reasons, I am just trying to get the car on the road and there is a non EPROM ecu close by for sale. Its from a 92 fwd turbo laser anyone know if it will work?
  12. pretty sure my ecu is bad, double check my diag?

    So started with a rough running and stalling issue. Code for air meter, vehicle sat for a few months, changed MAF and then car wouldn't start or sputter at all. Checked for spark, had spark but a dead fuel pump. Replaced pump, it powers up just fine and still no start. Checked for spark, no...
  13. drive line vibration 45mph and under

    If it was carrier bearings wouldn't it be at high speeds? This goes right away at 45mph kinda makes me curiois.
  14. WTB: entire rear subframe with good wheel bearings

    Shipped to 04011 Brunswick Maine, 207-eightnine1-1916 is my number
  15. setting base timing with data logger?

    So I read that if your datalogger is plugged in you can't correctly set base timing because your ecu will be in idle adjustment mode when you ground out the plug. My datalogger is a little different so I'm not sure if this still applies. I have a zietronix logger that is spliced into the ecu...
  16. 20G turbo work with evo3 downpipe

    I may be wrong chime in, but if I buy a complete 20G will it work with my evo3 02 housing and downpipe setup?
  17. Momo seat in galant

    I dont feel much like fabricating my own brackets and curtis said it would be a while before he could re create sliders. What have you guys done to mount momo seats in our cars? I have an older Momo corse fixed back I would like to install soon.
  18. running a sohc ka24 on a dsm ecu.

    My friend is going to try and run his datsun with a turbo ka sohc engine on a dsm ecu with a jackal speed density setup. I think the largest hurdle will be machining something to run the crank angle sensor off of the distributor. If anyone has any input or similar experience let me know. I've...
  19. bc coilovers

    On the highway I'm bouncing all over the place. When I set up the coils I preloaded the springs and I've played with the dampening and still its pretty bouncy. Anyone else notice this? Maybe its just the nature of the beast.
  20. WTB: or wtt fp race manifold for your mani or 02 housing

    I need a manifold with flange for an external waste gate or an 02 housing modified for external waste gate. I have cash or the FP Mani for trade.
  21. rear wheel bearings are fun.

    Just made an attempt to replace inner and outer rear wheel bearings. 25 ton shop press wouldn't even make them budge. I tried a sawzall an airhammer then I finally cut through the race with a torch and airhammered them out.Cool story bro I know
  22. wheel bearing question

    I purchased 5 lug hubs and spindles to swap into my galant and I also want new bearings before I do the swap. Are the bearings all the same? I assume the rears are but not sure about the fronts.
  23. Swaybar install without dropping subframe.

    I searched around a bit and it seems some of you have been able to install the rear 26mm whiteline swaybar without dropping the subframe? And also did you remove anything to fit the front bar? It almost looks as If I unbolted the rear of one of the control arms I could get it to fit.
  24. Bad luck leaves me paranoid

    Im getting my car tuned on a dyno tomorrow. I've owned this car for over a year now and last time I had dyno time schedued was a few months after I purchased the car. After getting the galant running and working out a few kinks, fixing hacked work disaster struck just two days prior to my...
  25. alternator testing

    I think my alternator is bad after rewiring the power cable to it(arced against metal housing) I can't find a wiring schematic. I traced the two white wires on the power stud of the salt and one looks like it goes to a 60 amp fuse in the engine bay fuse box and the other wire to the "alt relay"...
  26. trying to find a galant with xxr 962 wheels

    Couldn't find a pic of a vr4 with these wheels. Anyone running these?

  29. cutting into cast manifold

    I am going to run an external waste gate on my FP manifold. What should I use to cut out a good sized hole in cast iron? I assume a hole saw bit won't even touch it.
  30. FS: rolling shell: maine

    Going to the junkyard in a week, $200. Good glass, both subframes and wiring harness. That's about all that's left will not pick off the carcass come and get it.
  31. on the dyno 2wd?

    I have access to a portable dyno and I'm considering removing my driveshaft. The soul purpose is to tune my car but I'm wondering how much it will skew my numbers. I am still unsure on how the power distribution of this system works. Someone learn me.
  32. Show me pics of your setup

    Anyone with a FP race manifold and ETS front mount running a external wastegate? I am trying to figure out where to mount the wastegate. It looks like I have no room at all the Bracket for power steering and alternator has got to go. Removing the manifold will be much easier with that bracket...
  33. K-sport............camber?

    I have these coilovers that came with my car when I bought it. The front adjustable pillow ball mounts can only mount in a way that it adjusts caster and not camber. I thought that it would fit if I turned the mounts 90 degrees, but it will definately fit only one way. Unless I bored out the...
  34. Piston and rod combo?

    Whats a good combination of uprgraded forged pistons and rods for a street car that gets driven often?. I've heard JE were great for just a race car but not very good daily driven. Let me know what you guys are running, thanks!
  35. Waterpump going?

    So while highway cruising my coolant gauge will start to rise the last notch before the ''danger zone'' and then drop rapidly back to the middle. This condition occurs almost constantly on the highway and seems to do it less when I am not accelerating. I have a brand new OEM thermostat, but I...
  36. Clutch/Brake master brace.

    I noticed when bleeding my clutch slave that the clutch master flexes a but ton. Then I started to wonder if anyone makes or has designed a clutch master or brake master brace for our cars. Maybe it wouldn't be that much of an improvement but if it was slightly I bet I could make one for fairly...

  38. Random surges on cruise. Need expert Diag

    Ok so 92 6-bolt. No codes stored in the ecu. CEL comes on sometimes but only on Decel and then goes away as soon as I step on the gas.When I am cruising the car bucks harshly intermittently and when it happens my AFRs peg to like 10.0-12.5 at highway cruising speeds. It seems to do it less...
  39. wheel bearing

    Best place to order a front wheel bearing? Should I buy an outer race as well? is there an inner and outer? I assume they are not dealer available maybe they are. Is there a VFAQ writeup on this? the site is down or something. I have access to a bearing press.
  40. Anyone here ever own # 702/1000

    1992 belize green? Im curious because when I pulled apart the motor it already had the balance shaft deleted, looks like they did a good job too no leaks or anything. The past two owners were a redneck who knew nothing about cars and had LED washer nozzles and before that it was an old lady from...
  41. Help I think I have a bad ECU( stranded)

    So I found out My knock sensor wasn't hooked up at all today. The connector (wiring harness side) looked a little messed up and it was hard to plug in but I managed to get it plugged in, then my car wouldn't start. It just cranks and dies it won't idle. I think when I hooked up the knock sensor...
  42. suspension bushing

    Im not sure exactly what to call this part it makes it different to find a replacement. I have a seized toe adjuster for the passenger side rear. It is a trailing arm I think that is also the rear hub/wheel bearing housing assembly. Anyway I need to cut out the bolt and replace the adjuster and...
  43. Idle issues

    I have no idle speed control so I'm hoping this is why intermittently my car will surge at idle. I'm sure some of you have run with no idle control before, my car will raise to about 1500rpm and then drop and it does this rythmically when it idles for a little more than ten seconds, sometimes...
  44. Pulling fault codes

    So I assume you attach a jumper wire to the ground and MPI terminal in the diagnostic box next to the kick panel fuse box? With the key on? I tried the other day and the check engine light did nothing

    Let me know what you have

    is 21 psi Ok to run out of a Evo3 16G, clipped and ported. The internals are stock but I have arp head studs, MLS headgasket and a jackal standalone. I just want a reliable setup and I can't quite get my manual boost controler setup right for some reason.
  47. Any GVR4 owners in maine?

    trying to see some other galants. I don't think I've ever seen another one on the road, it would be fun to setup a car cruise bbq or something. Theres an interesting group of cars in my circle of friends. (Mk3 supra,MK1 MR2 3sgte swapped, modified VW's, Datsuns e.t.c it would be cool to see...
  48. EGT's with standalone

    So just a little about my setup 92 GVR4 with FP big 16G ported and clipped, 710cc injectors, 255 lph pump, jackal speed density setup, stock cams stock bottom end. So i just installed my zietronix EGT probe and saw EGT's of almost 1200 under light load. I have tuned the volumetric efficiency and...
  49. Catch can

    In the valve cover It looks like there is a flapper plate that lifts up when engine vacuum is applied (intake manifold side of VC) so if I run lines from both nipples of the valve cover straight to a catch can, will it not vent PCV at idle or something?
  50. cam timing question

    So the cam timing marks on the 1G head, are they really supposed to line up flush with the top of the head? My marks line up together and are inline with the head but they meet a little bit above the top of the cylinder head. So I guess they are parallel with the top of the head and the cam...
