I've been browsing Copart, as one does, and I couldn't ignore this Laser! Someone needs to save this thing...https://www.copart.com/lot/38061053/clean-title-1992-plymouth-laser-rs-ca-sun-valley
I have ~2700 miles on the South Bend Stage 3 "Daily" clutch that I installed in October of 2019. A new Competition Clutch flywheel was installed at the same time. I have had no clutch problems since then until I noticed on a drive in January that the clutch would slip only in 5th gear and only...
I am running Megasquirt MS3X but as far as I can tell, this is hardware behavior and not part of the tune. I'm losing my mind chasing this so I'm hooping that others running Speed Density might be able to help.Tuning on 93. I used the stock spark map and all of the table axes have been...
I finally got my AZ-1 running after 14,000 hours of inoperability and while explaining the car to my boss at work I stumbled across this disappointingly pixelated photo. If any of these gullwing 1gs are still around, I'd love to recreate this picture, maybe with a few more pixels this time around...
What is an appropriate coolant temperature for typical DD operation? The internet throws out numbers between 190 and 215F for city/highway driving. My GSX will get to 170 very quickly but can take 10 minutes or more to get from 170 to 175 and if I drive it long enough, when it hits 190 it will...
Is there anything in between the ECU connector and the ISC connector that could cause an open circuit? I'm measuring voltage at the ECU connector but all four signal pins in the ISC connector are 0V/open. As a sanity check, I have also confirmed that neither the current ISC nor two BNIB units...
I've been wanting a decent suspension on my Eclipse ever since I got it but generally mixed reviews for all of the big names kept me from ever pulling the trigger. Flatout advertises the CS as "Designed for Street Comfort" and in talking with them directly about suspensions, I mentioned that the...
Is the driveshaft yoke supposed to have a missing spline? I can't seem to find any good pictures or answers online right now.I pulled the transfer case to inspect it (destroyed) and found this when I inspected the driveshaft yoke for leaks.
It's not supposed to look like that, is it?
I added this to my Christmas list months ago and realized that there's no reason to keep it to myself:

Heather purple to match my shitty Barcelona Red DSM, but it comes in any color that you could want. Unfortunately I didn't see any 1g...
Maybe I'm not searching well enough, but I haven't found anyone else describing the issue that I have. I'm tuning the black box ECU in my 98 GSX for Deatschwerks 1000cc injectors after an engine build. Background:It was running well but would suddenly go insanely lean (35-100:1 AFR on the...
I recently resurrected my GSX after months of being disassembled only to find that it doesn't run properly. The assembly was pretty standard with the only changes from the previous configuration being 9:1 compression and 1000cc Deatschwerks injectors. The E3 16G is running wastegate pressure. I...
I'll start off by saying that I don't know too much about DSM transmissions. This is a 1995 TSi AWD with ~130k miles. I've had the car since Feb 2014 and haven't touched the transmission except to change the flywheel and change the fluid (MT90/MTL). There is a chatter that comes from the...
I've had this problem for about two years now, but due to other more pressing matters like having to get a whole new chassis and then may gauges dying, I have never had a chance to really look into this until now. Attached is a log of the issue. I'm at WOT in 2nd and a little in 3rd, and it...
I've never really understood the whole process to set idle on a 7 bolt. I just turn my BISS to raise or lower the idle in my car, but people talk about grounding the timing pin on the ECU. What does that do? Am I supposed to have to do that to set my idle. If so, does that mean that something's...
I finally picked up a black dash the other day (it's beat to shit and I'm kind of regretting paying for it) and it went into the car yesterday. There were no problems before, but now none of the dash lights come on. The gauge cluster still works, but the gauge backlights don't come on. Neither...
I bought my DSM in 2008. My 1997 GST Spyder was my first car, my daily driver through high school and through college, and was supposed to be a weekend car once I get a hot hatch (READ: Fiesta ST) but was taken out by a completely oblivious silver Dodge this winter. My motto is that if I have to...
I'm normally not a drag strip kind of guy, but I took my 95 Talon AWD for fun on Friday. After my first launch, though, I could not get the car into second. Thinking it was me being stupid, I tried again and couldn't get it into any gear. Once I let the car cool down I could drive it home...
