I actually have two.
One was built by shep trans. Can't find any of the paperwork. It's been sitting in my garage since 2012 when I did my awd swap. It was a little notchy going into 3rd.
$350Stock fwd man 2g 135k no problems
Make offer
Seems really high but sometimes you get exactly what you pay for. For 6k he should have proof it is worth that. Has the suspension been gone through? With OEM parts? Receipts? Check it over very carefully. Whats original on it with 165k miles on it/about wore out?
It has been done before but you are talking about basically cutting off the front end frame of one car and placing it on the other. Basically turning the frame into a GST. Maybe a better swap would be to look for a 2000 or so with the 4g64. (like a galant) At least the motor mounts are on...
Yeah that kind of sucks when you have to do that. What I've done is just buy universal flanges and gaskets, cut where needed, and weld in the flanges so at least I can take it apart.You might just get a new downpipe that is flanged for a stock bolt on situation then just add a flange to your...
Looks like you did a good job raptor. Not my thing but it looks alot better than the "painted" one's some people do. Other than the tan painted in Cox's pics. That looks clean.Anyone notice raptors laces match his car. lol
It's not bad machining. I had to cut on a lathe round stock to .310 thick, center drilled a hole for the caliper bolt to make the spacers. Minor clearance grinding had to be done on the calipers and rear dsm backing plate. My front rotors came from an 08 lexus. I had to have the hub center...
Glad to hear RTM is doing something with the 2g calipers. When I did mine I used the tuners nation bracket, custom spacers, and lightly machined Volvo rotors to get my 2g vr4 calipers to fit.
Most seals/gaskets from a reputable manufacturer (known name brand) should be fine. Federal mogul- felpro is a major supplier and it would't surprise me if 75% of all brands of gaskets and seals comes from them.If your going through the trouble of replacing the oil pump gasket then I would...
I would have to agree as well. Even if you want to keep them you can't let it look like a redneck island in your front yard. I do have two in my driveway but they look like they run. lol I'm working on my garage so thats why they are in the driveway. Insulation is gonna be great in the...
And this is why I won't live in the city.Do what you can to get them running or take the two and put together one. The storage idea is good. Look into the car friend help idea. Good luck.
Since you will need a replacement baffle Goblin's would be a good choice but if you ever do it again you can remove your stock baffle and reinstall it. Here's a write up I did. http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/removal-and-reinstallation-of-valve-cover-baffle.427887/
I like the color calculator. :D http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jspYou can play with the calculator with your stock size on one side and "test" sizes on the other. Then you can just go out and measure the difference on your car to see if you'll have issues. Another option is look at what...
The silicone/window weld trick could work for awhile until you decide what you want to do.I've used this to check part numbers. http://www.partsbase.org/mitsubishi/us/
You might want to check out this kit. http://www.jnztuning.com/product_info.php?cPath=21_30_669&products_id=1173
Seems like alot but you get most everything you need. 2 carriers, 3 ujoints, 3 yokes, bushings, lock nuts and washers for the DS. Might be worth doing the math and see if the $...
I don't like this style of seat bracket. The seatbelt bracket stays in one position since its bolted to the chassis even when the seat is slid forward or back. Thats why I made my own so the seat belt buckle slides with the seat. Just think about when your in an accident the seat will slide...
You can play around with a tire calculator to see how far off it throws your speedo with different sizes. One of my favs I have stuck up on the tool bar. http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp235/45/17 is probably the closest. Thats the size I run on my evo wheels.
Is it an oiled filter like a K&N or dry? What is the filter media made of?Just like an oil filter they are all made fairly similar but that doesn't make them all the same. Differences in the quality of the filter media, amount of surface area, how the components are assembled (which you...
How would you suggest a garage tinkerer measure (for weld placement) the cut bushing ring to make sure each are moved the same amount? I suppose you could make a holding jig to keep the placement the same on all four.
Order a knuckle kit for each side and be done. To save on shipping ask the oem part dealer to just send the arms and not the knuckle if you don't need it. I talked to them a jnz about doing this and they said no problem. That will chop a bunch of weight off the shipping. For the links and...
Nope. I ordered from several dealers that showed them in stock, made a bunch of phone calls to dealers about ordering from mitsi, even tried ordering the weird colors that were available, and they aren't available. Fix what you have or maybe get lucky on ebay. You may want to check with...
You could give Stevie at miller import parts a yell. He probably has a steering wheel.You mentioned being a cheap behind so guess redline goods wouldn't be an option.
Just use your stock clock spring. Since you will no longer be using the air bag circuit of the clock spring just use those two wires. Depin the other side in the steering column and run your 12v+ and ground off those pins.
Thats how txt/internet selling goes.
I have a friend that sells stuff on CL and he never pulls his ad down even after it sells then complains when he keeps getting txts/emails for a month after its sold. I told him pull the ad and they will stop calling...... yet it stays up. He must like...
Order a knuckle kit from one of the oem parts suppliers that support this site. Mr325009 mr325010 if I remember right but don't remember which is left and right. I don't remember because I always order both sides and replace both at the same time. I've ordered several kits and if you ask...
You can use a tire calculator to help get an idea of how much something will stick out. My fav. http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jspJust play around with wheel and tire specs then you can use a tape to get an idea how it will set on your car.Keep in mind that many will say anything lower...
I think he's talking about the Diamond racing wheels. Steelies probably. http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m8fcA-qI4ynn4xQDkoXtV7g.jpg
When I see them on I think 4x4 practical utility. Or maybe nascar. Photoshop them.
Here's a link http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/3g-back-seats.374481/If you don't find anything local in good shape you could check with Stevie at Miller import parts. Great guy to deal with.
IMO along with daron is prothanes are worth the extra money for a couple reasons. The ease of install and it is a complete kit that includes the bushings for the lower control arms.
Gates doesn't scare me especially for a stock car.
Check prices and jnz has helped me more than once. Possibly look to supporting vendors of the site that sell oem stuff and pick the one closest to you for cheaper and quicker shipping.Depending on mileage you might want to consider a water...
Saw a gst with aftermarket exhaust on it so I asked the guy at the store who's car it was.
Guy says mine.
So I just asked a few minor questions on it and got a bunch of stuff.
It has an iron 1g 4 bolt block that he put in so he wouldn't get crank walk with the aluminum block that came in the...
Sizing injectors requires some formulas to figure. You can find some calculators from some of the injector vendors like FIC.
I saved a file with general figures in it to refer to that base injector size to turbo A/F. It was posted in a discussion years ago so I don't know who to give credit...
Oh its a sleeper....Way cooler and worth more..... The turbo is in the intake. Covert operation :cool: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blue-Dual-Fan-Tornado-Air-Intake-Supercharger-Turbonator-Fuel-Saver-for-Honda-/361178481685?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6393
Just a side note is if the pliers leave gouges in the guide make sure to file them off so they don't ruin the bore on the cam cap when you put it back in. Just take the "high spots" off.
I would check out the 420a section. http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/first-modifications.272662/Things I would do that are just "bolt on" would be look into something like a K&N cone filter. Maybe make a filter box and cold air system. Header and exhaust. Some nice plug wires and plugs. How...
Is it the actual tower that is welded to the chassis or just the strut mount plate? I've seen several with the strut tower plate rotted away in the rear.

You can use some parts with modifications.Brakes but you would need a caliper bracket or jdm knuckles.
Steering wheel but the hub has to be switched out and airbag wires would need modified to work.
Seats but you need a seat bracket.
Wheels are bolt on.
Shift knob.Do you have your hands on a...
Imo the vrsf is a better option than the godspeed. They support the site, short route piping, good quality, and easy installation. Some of the ebay stuff comes with couplers and Tbolts that are just junk. I wouldn't trust the bov that comes with the godspeed ic either but thats just me. I am...
Depending on the seller sometimes long block only includes block, crank, bearings, rods, pistons, head, valves, and springs. Basically the entire rotating assembly and head. Some don't even include the oil pan or valve cover so make sure of what your buying.
When you get it up and running again you could put some lucas power steering stop leak in for some added insurance. It may quiet things down because its supposed to help with hard spots and squeels in the rack so I'm sure it will help with the pump as well. If you did damage the pump you could...
I like this one http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp A little more of a visual of what your changing and then you can measure off your hub of what your doing.
You need to check the head surfaces for being flat. How did you remove the old gasket material? Used head bolts? Are you blowing the head or is it just leaking oil or coolant?We need more details of what you have done to prep the head and block to know what you have been doing wrong. It...
