I'm getting full fuel pressure so I can't see how that would be an issue.Just checked the voltage on each injector plug with the car in "on" and not running. Every plug 1 pin was 11.3 and one pin was 11.77.Im sure the EGR isnt still sticking open because there is no air flowing out my...

Small 16g, extremely minimal shaft play. No vac lines have blown off, I have done like 20 boost leak test since this issue has happened lol

A boost/vac leak would cause the car to run lean under idle and cruise since it would be pulling in umetered air and rich at wot or most conditions in boost. I checked fuel pressure after the filter and it was good so its not the filter.If I go to test the reading from the injector plugs with...

Small update, still having this issue. So far I have checked -fuel pump for e85 goo -injectors for e85 goo -fuel pressure -fuel pump voltage -main grounds -injectors resistance

Nope, nothing has changed on the car in months.

Car was running great. 16g, 1000cc injectors, 255 fuel pump, e85, 25psi. Car suddenly began to run lean, turns out vac line for egr came off and the egr was stuck open. Fixed the vac line and drove it for another few nights. Now the car is suddenly running very lean again. Idles in the high...

They would be far from the first to do a 2j swap lol

Anytime I use anything that draws electricity my car goes quite lean. No change on WOT but in idle or cruise its very noticeable. I can still use my headlights but turning the radio on or using the heat/ac fans lean it out. Any clue what it could be or how I could trace it down?

So turns out it wasn't even in my head, it was my power steering pump that was creating all the ruckus.

See I have the circular tipped one and I was expecting this sound.Eclipse Turbo Back Thermal R&D Exhaust - YouTubeTha'ts not quite what I got so I was thinking, hmm maybe its the oval muffler design that sounds like that. haha

Stock oil pressure gauge was reading fine, but that's not saying anything lol. How would I go about testing this? I don't understand why it would run fine for a night, then gradually come back.Also timing belt, timing belt tensioner, idler pulley, and balance shaft belt were all replaced...

Update. Thought one of my lifters could have collapsed so I replaced all my lifters with 3g's, started the car and got the usual chatter. After the lifters filled everything sounded super smooth. Drove it around a full night and put maybe 25 miles on it. Then next morning I went to leave for...

Last night I was driving and my head started making this awful noise that sounded like it would after bleeding all the lifters, it drove fine but I immediately pulled over and had it towed home. Just took the valve cover off and everything looks fine. Any clue what it could be?

I live in the Louisville area, I can go investigate for you all haha

I was bleeding my lifters with a buddy. We get down to the last two and he drops the lifter and the needle falls down into the oil drain on the head and down the block. Does this lead straight to the oil pan? How should I go about getting it out?

The thread was revived for this?!

Just finished a headgasket job and everything seems good except one of the bolts holding the CAS in is rubbing against the intake cam gear. I'm assuming I just put the wrong bolt it and I need to use one with a smaller head?

yea...

Oh god. First off 3000gt's arent DSM's. Second off, work on your grammar.

I would assume that he had provisions to quickly take it out before I would that he has to take it out like normal every time. If they had the skill to do that I'm sure it has been set up with a way to access it easier.

So installed 1000cc injectors, tuned the global and dead time, all was good for about two weeks. Then suddenly anytime I used anything that used electric power it would lean way out. Now about 2 weeks after that I cant apply any load to the engine without it leaning out completely. Can't even...

HahahahaI don't care, I was just bored. lol

I mean for starters its a DSM, to most people that already classifies it as a POS lol. But I guess your right, with my shitty 2g I dont get to experience the true power and beauty of the coveted n/a 1g. Guess I can never be as great as you :(Import Alliance by TacoManTsi, on FlickrAnd...

I love it. There isn't a thing as a "true dsmer". Just like there isn't a thing such as a "true car guy (or in unfortunately fewer cases car girl)"

Another thing is a "true dsmer" wouldn't mistake a eclipse for a talon, especially if they saw it nearly every day at their highscool. And I would love to know how my talon is classified as a POS. Please enlighten me.

I guarantee the definition isn't "person who drives a non turbo 1g with hideous tail lights".

Guess I will just buy the kit, I was just trying to save where I could on my jobless college kid budget lol.

I recently purchased a second hand, but not used Walbro 255 for my 95 Tsi AWD. Upon installing it I realized that I did not have the white cap or O-ring that was show in the vfaq to come with the kit. Where can I buy JUST the cap and O-ring? I have the parts circled in red here. I can buy...

Are you looking for a solar wing?http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/GTS51220.htmThis is my favorite one I have found, but this one is labeled for a 1g.

I can dig this. Speaking of the wangan, I have one for sale if someone wants it.

Thats just one of the renders. The real outcome of the evo x eclipse was hideous.

I was at a junk yard and my buddy walked up to me and handed me a shift knob, told me it came out of a jeep. Looks almost like stock and is a little heavier. I love it.

Thats what I thought but I was just a little confused. I pulled this from the same place where the ECU is on my car. And I didnt understand why it would need to be eprom, but I guess thats if you want to change shift points and such?

Thanks. So what is the purpose of this compared to an ecu?

So I pulled this from a junkyard thinking it was an ECU. Then when I went to test it in my car I noticed that it had too few spots to plug into the car. I googled a number on the case and came up with something telling me it was a TCU. I tried searching but didnt find anything to usefull. Could...

Dont have any pictures right now, I can get some if you really want. As of now all I have is this video. Look on the ground in front of the red Mazdaspeed3

I recall seeing a pic of a yellow 2g with yellow high beams once before. Fairly certain I saved it on my phone. Anyway it looked sick! Also you dont necisarily need HIDs to have a yellow high beam. Im fairly certain HOEN makes a bulb the same size as our high beam and my friend uses there bulbs...

I have the wangan wing for sale if you have seen what that one look like. Unfortunately it isnt the carbon fiber version though.

Looks clean, did your buddy just redline it?

Does anyone have a picture of the smoked set on their car?

I love aftermarket headlights, to bad the light output sucks :(

Theres always the greyforrest mod.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-exterior-interior/109404-greyforest-hood-mod-how-5-hood-vents-2gs.html

Since when is pealing clear coat, pealing door trim, and foggy headlights "clean". (no offense dsmspick there easy fix's)

That still wouldn't tell him what he is making over stock cams, unless he decides to put some back in and dyno it again.

He was asking about a cone filter on the stock intake pipe

Ill give you a cookie, what better motivation is there then the promise of a cookie?
