    Another LED upgrade thread.

    We will see as time will tell. I will still see you over at planet. If I do get another Eclipse, It will be a GST or better ;)

    Another LED upgrade thread.

    I remember seeing those pop up when I searched for LED Eclipse tail lights. They look good and I would have bought them back too LOL

    Another LED upgrade thread.

    Yeah it was fun while it lasted and I learned a lot from it. It would have been nice to finish them but time just didn't allow for the full rear to be done.Well I would have kept mine (or get another one later in life) but my wife and I have a second child on the way and the Eclipse was...

    Another LED upgrade thread.

    Well everyone, it has come time for me to post that this is no longer happening to my Eclipse. I have parted out and sold off the car and no longer have a DSM. I do have another car but it's not even in the Mitsubishi family. I am off to join another community and hope that they are just as...

    For Sale 420a Part Out!

    I just posted this in the classifieds so giving the Locals a heads up.It has come time for me to part ways with my 97 GS (420a M/T). It has been a fun run but after moving it to FL. in May of 2014, I still don't have it on the road and probably never will. It is cheaper for me to buy another...

    420a custom header idea..is it realistic

    If you are going to do all that work, for a little bit more money, you could just buy a 420a flange and some piping and build your own that will more than likely last longer anyway. Look into building exhaust manifolds here on tuners and get some ideas.

    2G 96 Eclpise GS stalling but has no problem starting

    A friend of mines 96 RS was doing something similar. His screen on the fuel pump was so clogged up that it was starving for gas. His tank also has a bunch of rust down in the bottom of it. He too has an evap code in his as well as one for his TPS.

    What did you do to your DSM today?

    I would. I will be for doing my tuck. I think that it would just be easier having another access hole.I made and installed the washer shifter base mod. Started planning out the routing of the wires and lines for an engine bay tuck.

    420a ac issues!

    I know that I could get a whole kit from rock auto but I was really wanting to know if anyone had any incite on what the common things to replace would be ( dryer, expansion valve, etc.). Like I said, I would really like to get this ac system working before next spring. It would make driving in...

    420a ac issues!

    Hey everyone. I would like to know what the known ac issues are for the 420a. What mine is doing is when I was trying to a some freon to the system, the upper ac line would jump violently every time the compressor would kick on/off. Eventually the ac protect mode would kick in and turn off the...

    2G taillights stay on... Need help finding a part

    Yep. I didn't have a bolt with me but I happen to have the radio out at the time and I used one of the screws from that. I suppose this weekend I'll upgrade it to a bolt and nut :thumb:

    2G taillights stay on... Need help finding a part

    I just used a screw on the peddle side when mine broke on me going to go get gas. It keeps the brake sensor from coming all the way out (causing the lights to come on) and I don't need to worry about the plastic breaking again. It's been like that for 3 years now LOL

    My crappy VC paint job.

    Good luck and I hope that it works for you. I learned this many years ago from an older friend of mine who has done this for years. His 69 Vett looked great and he taught me when I was building my Camaro at the time.

    My crappy VC paint job.

    Depressed is a little different. It takes a steady hand and either a fine paint brush (like a kids water color brush) or a tooth pick to get the paint down into the fine lettering/numbers. If one takes their time doing it this way, they could have great results. Use high temp paint in stages...

    My crappy VC paint job.

    Another trick for painting raised lettering like that is to paint the bottom layer (cover) color of choice and then let it fully cure. Once the paint it cured, take painters tape and tape the entire thing. Carefully take some sand paper and sand off the tape on the top layer(letters). Once this...

    1G Radio din pocket

    OH, I haven't seen any of those. All that I've see are covers. You could always try and make one yourself. There are many ways to make one. Corrugated plastic is cheap and easy to work with. Or you could even use a corrugated box and cut it to the shape that you would like and soak it in...

    2G Factory Service Manual

    Some of them are several hundred pages long. Depending on the manual that you looked at. The chassis and body one is 2100+ pages long. The electrical one is 500+ pages long.

    3D printed 1G model

    I would just use the stock fonts. Like either 1g or 2g. Instead of having a little sticker saying GS,GST, Etc, you could have slightly raised lettering for the badge. I think it may look kind of cool. Or something else you could do is a plastic turbo key chain LOL
  29. DJ Raydiate

    3D printed 1G model

    How about raised GS, GST, GSX lettering to match the center section of the tail lights. I know that there are stickers to rebadge the car and raised letters that one could buy, but it's hard to find them in the right font. IDK, just a thought. It's small enough for the printer to do and it...

    Electrical Help

    It takes a few seconds for the ecu to read the codes and relay it back to the check engine light. Try again and wait a few. If it doesn't start to flash after 30 secs then something went wrong with the dance. You should at least get a 55 when doing the key dance.

    Egr Line? 420a Confused 1997 Eclipse RS

    You could always just run new vacuum line from one point to the next. Mine was replaced even before I bought it so I don't know. One way to find leaks is to spray carb cleaner all around the vacuum lines while the car is running. If there is a change in the way the car idles then you know to...

    You should be able to do the key dance to get the codes. You can look at how to do it here. It also shows what the codes are for each number. A lot better than the Haynes manuals.

    Looking at Walmarts website, they have some depending on how much you want to pay and what you are looking for. You could also look at ebay and Amazon.

    One could use the 95 block but it would seem like too much of a hassle to use without modification to some of the systems. GL with the build. If I were you, I would document everything and take pics and then write a Tech Article on using it for here on the forum. That way if someone else wants...

    can i use a 2000-up neon block in my 99 gs

    You could also ask on 2gnt.com. They may have better knowledge about it as well because the forum is 95-99 NT Eclipse/Talon based.Edit: I just found some reading for you. Take a look at these links.http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=5&topic_id=126729&mode=full...

    1g Roof rack?

    What exactly are you looking for?(Basket, Bike, Rails?). You can find some universal ones that can be had for way cheaper. On DSMTALK, They seemed to favor the Yakima Rack but I don't think that they make it anymore. I wish you luck on finding one.

    upper window moldings

    They have been discontinued for many years so new is out of the question. Your best bet is to take them off and paint them or do as many others have and plastidip them. Or you could wrap them like in the previous post.

    Is yours flush with the roof or is there a gap? I'm just trying to avoid having the gap there when I take the rest of it off and paint the rails.

    Yeah the previous owned tried to paint them but did a horrible job at it. Just like the tint job that they did on the car.What have you used to refill the gap in between the rail and the roof? I was thinking of something like a foam strip or something.

    Nope, no dirty cracks here.In this pic I took a piece of paper and slid it in between the rail and the roof. I then took a pick and grabbed the material in question out of the crack and brought it out up to where it is still attached to the rail so that you can see that it is on the rail and...

    cheapest insurance for a 17 year old?

    It varies from state to state. I have progressive but you really need to shop around to find the best rate for you. In NC they have a new driver insurance rate that is higher than everyone for the first 3 years that you own your license just because they are a new driver.
