A lot of dsms showed up I'm glad to have met you all and see your setups. I'm inspired by your knowledge and my love has been renewed!

Dsmkauai · 04-24-2012, 02:29 AM

Looks like I may be the first dsm in HI to rock a holset!!

Got me a wh1c basically a hx35, it will go in once rebuild kit gets here and my bep housing. I'll post some install picks and updates soon. But for now the 16g is coming out and my 20g is going for the may 5 races.

Leonthefaded · 04-24-2012, 07:40 AM

Freggin sweet, I need to get on your level lol

96797GST · 04-26-2012, 01:30 PM

nice to see some fellow Hawaiian dsm's on here.

Leonthefaded · 04-26-2012, 01:36 PM

Yep. I wanna do another meetup. But I dunno when would be a good date. During the day would be cool maybe kapolei at the wendys

Leonthefaded · 05-03-2012, 11:27 AM

Thats a rather large turbo you have, I am currently running a FP GT37R in mine. I had to do quite a bit of work to get that beast under the hood, and had to move a few stock pieces out of the way.

I might have the smallest turbo on my DSM on this island lol

Dsmkauai · 05-08-2012, 06:08 PM

Large not really, I'll take pics of my install once I start and post them. I got all the parts here and will be starting this week.

Leonthefaded · 05-12-2012, 04:03 AM

Okay guys, I ordered some gauges but didn't think about how I'm gonna power em. I'm looking at the stm pigtail fuses, but I keep seeing stuff about the cig lighter.

I'm getting the prosport digital series gauges

Dsmkauai · 05-12-2012, 04:15 AM

Lighter works just tap into it and solder back up. I think I have another running off heater fuse or something. Just find 12v at a fuse when ignition is on an tap into it. But make sure it's not a fuse that might be easily blown or majorly important.

I'll post this here for you HI boys enjoy.

I've been home but the Talon has just been sitting under my carport. The storage facility I left my car at allowed the car cover to come off and stay off. When I got there to pick it up, it was inside the car. I guess that was easier than putting it back on. Needless to say, stuff is faded and I have a bunch of surface rust.

I'm waiting on parts to come in before I start working on her. I just got my Treadstone manifold in and am still waiting on my Megasquirt. I also ordered some coilovers from Tuners Nation but they apparently went out of business and took my money with them.

It may be a while until I take the Talon to a meet. I might be willing to show up in my Durango, if I don't get shunned too much... or my new Monster, once I get my motorcycle license.

Finally had some time to work on the DSM this past weekend. Got the new radiator in, now all I need is a power steering pump barcket and she should be good to go.

Leonthefaded · 05-23-2012, 11:00 AM

Sweet bro can't wait to see ya on the road. Maybe we can do another dsm meetup soon

Leonthefaded · 06-09-2012, 10:38 PM

All I see are DSMs for sale. I don't really see any driving around or any guys on tuners... This shit is weak bra.

3 confirmed DSMs at Leafracing

redhotridur · 06-09-2012, 11:21 PM

DSM's are hard to find here in Hawaii. Most of the guys with money to spend are into other vehicles. Especially on Oahu, where there's no point in building a fast car with no track to run it on.

Leonthefaded · 06-09-2012, 11:34 PM

I can understand if your only mindset is on the track, but what about building a car in the spirit of the motorsport period?

chinexican · 06-10-2012, 02:27 AM

I'm still waiting on my Megasquirt to come in before I start working on the Talon. Until then, I'm just riding my Monster.

StarFawkes · 06-11-2012, 08:13 PM

Guys, I'll be getting on the dyno at Rad Motorsports this Friday at 10:30. Been a long road since I started my build and after working through a lot of problems it's finally ready to throw down some numbers. Would be cool if I could get some DSM tuners there! I talked to Seth and he said it would be about 3 hours from start to finish.
