  1. Had the same problem in a MR2 I used to have. The car would start and drive fine, and then after a while of driving the car would just die and wouldn't start again for a few mins. It turned out to be the fuel pump, after the car was running for a while it would overheat and just shut down. After it sat for a bit and cooled down it would start working again. Next time it happens see if the pump is priming when you turn the ignition on. Just a thought, easy to check once it happens again.
  2. Got the right bore size, and 1.2mm thick. The car was running, and starting fine up until the engine dies while I was driving it after the head gasket job.
  3. I have a 1991 GTS-t, I just installed a new Tomei metal head gasket. Started it up let it idle till it reached full temp, turned it off, re-torqued the studs and took it out for a drive. I drove it around for about 30mins, and then it just died all of a sudden. After that the engine won't start anymore, and when starting it the starter struggles to turn the engine over. It spins a few times and then its like it hits a wall and has trouble spinning it,. I thought maybe the head gasket didn't seat properly and some coolant leaked into a cyl and it was trying to compress the liquid in one of the cylinders, but I took out all the spark plugs and all pistons are dry. Also, when all the spark plugs are out and I turn the engine over it spins freely. Anyone got an idea of what the problem could be.
  4. As the title says, searched but couldn't find a definitive answer, someone said 27mm another said 30mm. I only have up to 25mm in my tool set, need to go and buy one. TIA
  5. I did, three times..lol The welds just kept breaking, it also doesn't help that the bracket is made of tin can thickness metal and that I have a clutch so stiff it seems like I have gone to the gym everytime I drive my car. After the 3rd time welding it I told myself if it breaks again im just gonna bite the bullet and get the NISMO one.
  6. I have a 1991 GTS-t, and the small spot welds my clutch pedal bracket snapped. So I bought a Nismo one, but after I took the old one out, removed the pedal from it and moved it over to the new one I have a problem. I can't figure out how to mount the assist spring back to the pedal. Is there some kind of trick to doing this? I have spent like 2 hours with this unit in front of me and I can't figure out how to get the damn spring back on the new, or even the old bracket so it works right. Has anyone done this before, or does anyone have a pic of a R32 clutch pedal bracket that they can post up so I can see how is it mounted? Thanks.
  7. As the topic title says, whats the stock thickness of the RB20DET's head gasket? 1.0mm? 1.2mm?
  8. Sorry, I guess I should have said that I need everything all from the same person. Thanks though.
  9. Im looking for a OEM R32 GTS-t front electric motorized lip. You know the one that comes down at a certian speed, and can be controlled by a switch in the cabin. Need everything, the lip, the motors, the switch and all the electrical wires. Post up what you have, a pic would be nice, and your price. Would need to be shipped to Vancouver....Surrey actually but you will need to be willing to ship to Canada. Thanks.
