hey was racing kinda and went from 3rd to 2nd and I let go very fast. I did not power shift. it still runs but when idling it rumbles a bit so yea I know it means some new valves. Can I have anything else besides some bent valves???

I am going to toss in some new piston rings so cheap set of rings will work or what have you guys done? I mean something beside dealer price something from ebay that you guys have used and it worked.

I'm selling the car still later so yea.

 

uhhh??? whats your point? did you check if its actually your valves..do a compression and leak down test before making a dumb thread

 

sweet dude....

 

you might just need a valve adjustment rather than new valves.......

 

OUCH you were RACING and just threw it into 2nd no revv matching?

 

he mis shifted, instead of going 3-4 he owned himself and went 3-2, do the compression and leak down test and let us know the results

 

dude hold on me and my buddy live on one street with 2 gsr's. he had the same misshift with valves bad


I did comp. test
cyl 1=200

cyl 2= 195

cyl 3=160

cyl 4=175



by buddy had
200
200
0
160




my misshift was not that bad as his he power shifted

 

yea bro

now I got a reason to pop open my motor


hey but it still works I cranked the rpm on idle to like 900 and I still will drive it SLOWLY though untill my buddy has time for valve job

 

REALLY? I mean it hit like 9k rpm's very quik and I let go fast. like I said it still runs and I will still drive it some

I just dont get it how can the valve adjustment go bad with just one rev to 9k?

 

I bought a used car a few months ago and while it idles, sometimes it'll rumble a little. Does that mean the previous owner could have messed up the valves?

 

when your racing you got no time to rev match nothing lol it took .5 seconds to shift from 3rd to 2nd

 

I just dont have a leak-down tester

my results are on the other reply

 

He did the famous "money shift".......Just get all new valves, new piston rings and valve stem seals for 50 from the one guy. Dont cheap out. Oh and to the guy that said it neds to get valves adjusted. The car almost sounds like a subaru. Do it once the right way then waste time later on rebuilding the whole engine because a valve decided to drop/break or what ever they tend to do at 8200 rpms.

 

Bad idea. If your valve breaks and drops you'll be looking at a lot more work than new valves and stem seals.

 

Thats what i told him and he wont listen.

 

Maybe he's looking for an excuse to buy a new engine

 

must be a baller. bet he had 10g's on the race too..

 

find a new way home pizza boy.

 

depends timing could be off a tooth do a compression test and a leak down test

 

well dude look at my compression numbers? their not as bad as my friends with one cylinder zero.

 

??????

 

dude we drove it yesterday and what..you feel anything? barly nothing. if I give it 2-3k max I should be good. plus i'll use my other car if I can.

 

lol keep on hitting vtec like u were doing yesterday with me in the car and ull mind as well start loking for a d series to swap bak in there.......ho cares if my had 0..listen to what ppl are telling you unless u want to open up youre engine to a valve hammered into youre piston.

 

read the whole post again I said i'll be giving NO MORE then 2-3k rpm hitting vtec with you was just to show you

 

time to overnight parts from japan
