    New JZ Solstice guy

    funny I just stumbled upon this right now. Just came back from my buddies house where I was trying to convince him to swap a 1jz into his solstice, and was explaining how similar the transmission are in his solstice and my soarer (r154). Sounds like a fun swap, keep us updated.

    hydraulic throwout conversion?

    Has anyone done a hydraulic throwout conversion? I am looking into this for reliability issues, and because the stock system looks so fragile and keeps failing on me. The snap ring popped off again after another clutch job. I figure it would be cheaper and more reliable to do a hydralic...

    more clutch problems

    Found the problem, looks like the clutch hub seperated from the pressure plate. I guess the snap ring went... The trust cone can be moved around (2cm or so gap). I have no idea why this would go after I replaced everything including all snap rings, wave washers, bearings, etc. I'll have to...

    more clutch problems

    I took a look at the fork and noticed the bolts on the support were not tight at all. I could loosen both bolts with my finger. I am not sure if it was always like this, or maybe I didn't tighten the bolts after doing the clutch or maybe it loosened while driving. Could this cause the problem...

    more clutch problems

    My car had this very same problem before. After it had been sitting for around 6 months I drove it one day and the clutch pedal got stuck to the floor, so I pulled it up by hand then the clutch refused to go back down. I had another car to drive so I left it like that for another 2 years...

    Front Suspension is crapped :(

    your tie rods are done for sure (outter atleast). I would check the inner and also check the rack (I doubt your rack is harmed). Also, your upper and lower control arms may be damaged (including ball joints). Although the lower arms do look beefy, I have no idea what kind of forces hit your...

    boost gauge

    it measures how much pressure is in the pipes after the turbo and before the engine. Then it shows you the amount of pressure in psi or lbs/in on a dial.

    started car after 2 years and the idle is lumpy (revs to 2k)

    I forgot to put that metal valve thinger in the brake booster line, seems to be working better now. I am getting a ticking/shake at idle. I think the sound is coming from my exhaust. Is this a misfire? I also have a leak where the cat meats the catback, could this be the issue? I think I...

    started car after 2 years and the idle is lumpy (revs to 2k)

    can a vacuum leak also do this? I cant see how the brake booster could have gone bad, working fine before I put the car away. I did however replace the line running to it.

    started car after 2 years and the idle is lumpy (revs to 2k)

    thanks guys, it idles just fine now. But I noticed the brake pedal becomes very soft when I turn the engine on, and the car seems to bog when I press it. Any ideas?
