    Never saw a Spyder like this!

    1999 MITSUBISHI Eclipse Spyder Convertible 2 Dr GS ConvertibleOK, way overpriced, but... who would go through all the trouble removing the rear spoiler AND ground effects?!?!? Or, I wonder if very base Spyder GS could be ordered without them? I just never saw such animal :shock:

    FS: 1995 Talon AWD, 41k miles

    Showroom condition! One owner car, which was babied and kept in the garage most of its life! It was never raced, always maintained. The only reason original owner was willing to give it up, was because it developed crankwalk (despite stock clutch, stock turbo, stock boost and synthetic motor...

    New winter beater: 2001 Vehicross.

    After a year of driving my Galant, I got another, equally as rare, daily driver: 2001 Vevhicross.I loved these cars when they came out in the '90's. They were so ahead of their time, that people still think that it is a brand new vehicle! But they were kind of pricy: over $30k, when...

    A/T (automatic) to M/T (Manual) swap on a Spyder

    So, there are numerous threads on how to do this swap, but I haven't seen this issue addressed:What do you do about the convertible top neutral/safety switch? I am in the middle of the swap and need to put up the top, but it isn't working. I suspect that that safety switch which prevents...

    05/06 Outlander "BIGGer brake upgrade"

    There are several good threads on this topic, but I thought I would put this into a Tech Article with focus on weight and add some of my own photos.One of the problems with upgrading your brakes, is that such upgrade is usually accompanied with increase in weight. Some aftermarket brake...

    Eagle Summit AWD - 4G63 powered sleeper project

    Hey guys, if you haven't been following 14b racing thread, you probably wouldn't see what I have been up to. For the last 18 months (on and off again, not continuously), I have been swapping 4G63 into my ’93 Eagle Summit AWD. I got it running about a week ago, and already raced it 3 times (had...

    Automatic tranny problem (WOT only)

    Find myself a complete newbie when it comes to the automatic trannies :(.My FWD Sypder GST has this problem from the day I got it: tranny is 100% fine under “normal” driving. But when going above 90% throttle, it seems to loose a 3rd gear (it goes to shift from 2nd to 3rd, but instead...

    FS: 1G parts (too big to ship)

    Most of these are too big to ship, so I prefer local pick up:'92 Tranny complete with center diff. came with my daily beater, I was told that it grinds into 3rd when shifted fast, but should be fine under "normal" shifting. Ether use it on a normal car or use as a core or parts. $130One...

    DSM Powered Class at 2010 Shootout?

    Myself and a couple of other New England DSM members want to test the waters about bringing back "DSM powered" class to the DSM Shootout.It was a great class (in thought), but 10 years ago, there weren't enough running swap projects to support that class. I think that in 2010, we have a...

    AWD tranny identification

    I find myself in a strange situation, I parted out '95 Summit AWD and I was told by several sources that it has the same transfer case as 91-96 5spDSMs. The manual confirmed that it has the same ratio (1.09:1) as 90-96 5sp DSM.. Just to be sure, I checked the actual ratio and it is 1.07:1...

    4G63 Powered Triumph TR7

    First NOPI (NH) win!

    For years, I have been thinking of driving out to NY/NJ and attending their NOPI events. But for one reason or another, I was never able to make the trip. I was kind of pissed when I found that NOPI was coming to my “home track” (New England Dragway), right after I sold the Green Machine :(...

    EVO16G 34mm flapper “upgrade”

    I have now budded my head with several people who insist that EVO 16G can benefit from a 34mm flapper upgrade. Well, I will give them the fact that this turbo can definitely use a wastegate upgrade, but it is my contention that 34mm flapper is NOT the way to go!I am not sure if you can see...

    My Shootout showing

    I have been asked this question numerous times, so now that that I know what has really happened, I can address it.I decided to ditch my VPC/TMO/SAFC combo and convert to AEM EMS about a week prior to the shootout. Not sure if this was a wise move, but I did it and I almost pulled it off...

    Another 10 sec best!!!

    We had an awesome New England Club DSM meeting at NED. Must have had 30-40 locals, in addition to the usual crowd.My first run was a very disappointing 11.50 at 121mph. Green Machine definitely felt slow. But on the return road I remembered that I forgot to pug-in my BOV/MBC line, so my...

    Vishnu Tuning…

    I have heard people question why Shiv and his shop, Vishnu Tuning, are so disliked on numerous DSM forums. I am not going to say anything bad about them (as Vendor bashing is not allowed...), instead, I am just going to quote him from EVO forum and let you make up your own mind:"Thank you...

    10’s at last…

    After battling all day with a sputtering problem, I was able to isolate it to a bad HK$ MAP sensor. Thanks to Mike Rizzotti, I was able to borrow one from his car and run 10.94 @ 129.5mph!This wasn’t even a clean run! Tony caught it on video, where it shows my pretty bad 1-2 shift (I...

    New 18G record?…

    OK guys, I have long been pocking fun of 18G turbos for being over-priced and not performing much better than a 16G. Well, if you look at our current #9 fastest guy (Adrenaline), looks like he has set a new 18G record!Checking out his time-slip, looks like he beat some poor guy with an AWD...

    Finally broke my personal best.

    We had a local import race at New England Dragway. Street shootout class had 6 DSMs and two highly modified Supras (500-600 whp) on race rubber. Supras took out a couple of DSMs but final was all 4G63.I had an interesting track experience. I tried a bunch of new things on my car: New Turbo...

    Latest 14b time

    I took out Green Machine for the fist time this year. I was very excited about running 180-190psi motor on a little 14b. That was until I saw the knock… With base timing set around 10-12 deg and ~19psi of boost, knock would go up to around 25-30… I lowered to the timing to “around” 7-8 deg...

    You are right, we were getting off the original topic. So I started a new one :).I have been looking for a clean Mighty Max truck for last few years. I think that I finally found '88 truck, only it is a very rare automatic. I think that this would make for a great drag vehicle. Just bolt...

    Continuos head gasket problems?

    I spend the entire summer on a blown head gasket (oil in coolant). Because there was no coolant in oil, I kept driving like that (drove it 700 miles to the shootout ran 11’s and drove it back). At the end of the summer I installed a different head (which was straight with-in .001”-.002”), a...

    Frank 5 track results

    Last night I was able to make a direct comparison between a 14b and a Frank 5. I only got in two runs with very little traction. I actually thought that 1.82 60’ time was pretty good considering the traction. That was 11.52 @ 124.9 (compared to [email protected] on a 14b).Otherwise, it was the...
