    Driving a 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse Without an Alternator Belt

    Good catch, I completely forgot the alternator drove the water pump.OP is the car NA? And how long did you drive it for after you lost the belt?

    Driving a 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse Without an Alternator Belt

    It’s not likely it overheated, the alternator does nothing to cool your car off. Your battery died or was dying. Replace the belt and jump start the car

    How many of us use our DSMs as actual daily cars? Or how many own just a DSM?

    I do NOT daily my DSM I have one 2g in the garage that’s practically a shell as I go through everything. I have a 2004 civic sedan that I drive every day. It will just get me wherever I’m looking for I’ve been stranded too many damn times and I’m fed up driving something modified. The turbo...

    2G Crank no start

    When did it stop starting, did you just go outside one day and it wouldn’t fire? Is it after you replaced something?

    The new Supra Z4?

    Genuinely my biggest gripe is that Toyota didn’t turn to Yamaha for the engine. Easily Yamaha could have cranked out another over-engineered gem capable of dumb power levels on stock internals. That and it’s not available in manual.It’s not super ugly, but every car to roll off the line...

    Other hobbies/passions besides DSMs?

    Unfortunately that’s the whole house (me and my 2 roommates) only the top AR and the p320 belong to meI wish my buddies were going full bolt one (it would make my life EASY!) but instead they all have to go all out. The buddy with the 1jz has a 2jz block in his garage just about ready for a...

    DSMer trying to build a Civic EG Hatch

    Civics are very very easy and cheap comparatively. I daily’d A 99 sedan with a turbo d16 for literally years and absolutely plan to build another. Most fun daily I’ve ever had. If you have a chipped p28 already I’d say switch to hondata, almost any Honda shop (or yourself) can tune s300 no...

    Reviving an old 2g (hopefully)

    Next to be removed was the interior, I’m going to re-do my wiring for the gauges. The first time around I cut corners and it was not up to my standard. Dash came out, I’m going to do the heater core/ evaporator/ expansion valve while they’re easy to get to. Harness bar as well as a run the wires...

    Reviving an old 2g (hopefully)

    Next to get touched was the wiring, I want everything as clean as possible I decided on top of relocating the fuse box and the battery figured I’d route the engine harness as clean as possible and take off all the old convoluted tubing and soft rubber sheathing that was now solid plastic. It got...

    Reviving an old 2g (hopefully)

    (Apologies for multiple posts quickly, figured I’d break up the content as it makes sense)At this point I made the decision to rebuild the bottom end, i figure why not just go pretty all out with the bottom end so anything I want to do later does not get complicated with having to give the car...

    Reviving an old 2g (hopefully)

    I drove the DSM and made some light mods immediately after purchase.Fmic, 16g, 1,000ccs, ECMlink, 3 port boost solenoid etc.I was driving it home from cars and coffee one day having some good fun on the freeway when I saw my temp gauge absolutely skyrocket. Just as I suspected, it was a...

    Facebook's negative impact on car culture and tech info

    Reading this thread has made me ashamed to be a lurker. I totally slipped into the “most questions have been answered and you’re looking for that thread” demographic. I can’t stand Facebook and 110% avoid it and the only used parts I’ve bought for my DSM have been from tuners.Trying to be...

    2G No clue what part this is, need help identifying

    My mistake the nick is on the oil pump cover, you can see it at the top photo at the 12:00 position. The reason the car came apart was a trashed head gasket so the head is going to a machine shop anyways just to get it milled flat again. The temp needle spiked hard when the head gasket let go...

    2G No clue what part this is, need help identifying

    It turns out it did fall out, There is a Knick on the stub shaft and a Knick on the front cover and the bolt is even still in there which leads me to believe it was while the engine was running.It also confuses me how my car stayed running or what else would’ve caused the light damage on...
