Don't buy an RX-7. Those things are ####ing coffins on wheels. I hate those cars now after one of those little pieces of shite took my friend's life. If you get into a wreck, they are unforgiving.:thumbdownRob

You sound like a damn car salesman. They always have 2 buyers interested in another state.Rob

Nobody will buy that shite for that much arkansas....Once they see it. :p I'll buy it for $2000. ;)Rob

The car is running great! And it wouldn't be if I got a big stick. Justin's ls1 ran like crap the last time I saw it and his gauge cluster was lit up like a christmas tree. Nah, it looks like forced induction for me. I hate N/A anyway. I think I might get a turbo kit, but the company hasn't...

What's up? Yeah I remember. I was just thinking of that race we had the other day. The ol 1G with the cut out. Yeah, I owned a 1997 GSX, but she gave me too much grief and I had to let her go. Just before I sold it, I had all the parts to do the GM MAF conversion on the car, but went up to...

Hey, congrats on your GSX. I no longer have mine, but at one time, me and my two friends all had 2Gs and between all of us, did quite a bit of modding. I am at school at K-State right now, but will be home over Thanksgiving. If you want to meet up and talk cars, hit me up with private message. I...

Nice rims. Unfortunate caliper color. :cry:Rob

Nope. You have to mount it after the BOV in what is called a blow through setup. Draw through setup meters air that is blown off resulting in a rich mixture. Dejon Tool makes a kit that makes a blow through design an effortless affair.http://www.dejontool.com/DSM-1g-SMIC.htmRob

I got a 2g one for sale. PM me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rob

What you're moving to Ocean of Fun? LOL :laugh:Meef it smells becuase your car is jewed beyond the point of no return. I'll have to smell it tonight to help you know what it is. Maybe it is some of the residual oil from the leak problem you were having. You best order those oil return pipe...

Lets do it this weekend damn it!Rob

Sure. Can't wait to see you waste that shitty stock clutch. I was still pulling too. ;) Just not as fast. Maybe if it wasn't my third day of driving a manual I could have put up a better fight.Rob

Hi all!! Well, I just sold my 97' Eclipse GSX and I got some stuff for sale. I know this isn't the Classified section, but you all live around me so if you see something you like I can bring it up to 24 Fitness if we ever have a meet. LOLHere is just a few things I have that I can think of...

When I turned on my lights the other night, I noticed that the A/C controls did not illuminate. Has this ever happened to anyone before? I checked my DSM manual and it looks like there are 2 lightbulbs that plug into the heater/ A/C control assembly. Although, it looks like a biatch to try and...

A typical cat-back adds about 5 hp and they cost an insane 500 bucks or more depending on what you get. NOW, like somebody said before they are a horsepower multiplier in that you need a free flowing exhuast to extract the horsepower from other modifications. I suggest getting not only a...

I got in touch with dejon and they said that they expect to get more maf translators in by the middle of next week. That is crappy cause I want it now. Oh well, what can ya do?Rob

I did order from Dejon, but not by phone. LIke I said I have to call them tomorrow and see. I ordered it on Sunday night.Rob

They should be able to work with you on it. In the end they make the money.If it has been so long, you should have a charge on your statement whether or not they charged you. I got my GM MAF yesterday. Man, that thing is huge and it is only the 3in. I can't wait to put it in. I think I'll call...

I don't think there is a wait on the 2G version. I could be wrong though. Maybe I'll guve Dejon tool a call and see. They never contacted me to say it was on back order.Rob

Venting to the atmosphere is pretty much just for sound. That is why I'm doing it. I ordered a Greddy Type-S BOV cause my friends sounds awesome in his DSM. However, I suspect that I might get a better airflow count by mounting the MAF right by the throttle body elbow, because it will take into...

Well, the GM MAF doesn't actually calculate boost. It just measures the flow of air running through its hot wire. The platinum wire is heated to around 212 degrees above the incoming air temperature. The air flowing past it has a cooling effect which causes an increase in current to keep the...

Its not that you have "problems" it is that it is a pain in the butt. Gas, clutch, brake, gas, clutch, brake, etc, etc, etc. Stuck in bad traffic is annoying enough, always having to use 3 pedals to make your car go and stop just adds to it. Especially if you got that big clutch upgrade like a...

YesRob

Yes you can vent to the atmosphere IF you go with a blow through setup. There are two basic setups for the GM MAF. You can have a draw through which is before the turbo and you can have a blow through setup which is placed after the BOV and the before the TB. As far as I have read there have...

She be a 14b mate.:thumb: The T-25 looks nothing like a 14B. The T-25 has alternating high and low compressor blades, has a different wastegate actuator, not to mention it says Garrett all over it. The 13G has a TDO4 housing.Rob

I've had a lot of problems with my 97' GSX. I have taken a huge hit in my wallet, but it has been running pretty well for a while now. It is a Mitsubishi. I expect this kind of stuff.Rob

I think it is kinda of bullshit how Mitsubishi cannot be held responsible for this kind of failure. Mine broke but luckly it was upon start-up one not so significant day. If you make parts that fail, then you pay for the damage they cause when they do.Rob

Ebay always has a very steady supply of them for sale. Some are paperweights and some are in awesome condition. The one I got was in really, really good condition.You know those turbos are rebuildable.Check out:http://www.forcedperformance.net/svc_turbo.htmmaybe cheaper to...

Yeah I've never seen this scanned manual CD in the store but it is worth the money for sure. It comes with more than just the manuals. It has the Talon digest on it, Mitsu CAPS, and tons of other stuff. One of the first things I bought for my car.Rob:thumb:

Hey, are you guys still on for that meeting at 9:00pm at 24hr fitness on May 2nd?I got a 97' GSX and my buddies have a 98' GSX and a 95' Talon TSi AWD. We'd like to meet others with our cars.Where is 24hr fitness? I live near 119th and Ridgeview in Olathe. What's the best way to get...

I haven't done it yet. I'm trying to get an idea before I start the install. When you get it installed, please drop me a line.Rob

I don't know what your target PSI is for you fuel mods, but when winter time strikes, boost creep should return. Winter is a bi*** here and my 34mm valve can't do a damn thing. Uner 40 degrees she is helpless.Rob

Greddy exhausts are usually more quite than the others on the market. When it comes down to it, most exhausts really aren't that loud. You get used to it anyway. External dumps are really f*cking loud though. Mostly if you got the stock downpipe on there, the aftermarket exhuast won't be that...

I got my stuff ported by RRE or Road Race Engineering. They do a pretty good job and send you a piece and credit your account when you send them your stock part back. There is no down time with them.www.roadraceengineering.comTRE is Team Rip Engineering. They don't port anymore, but I...

Dude I had the same problem.Heres what you have to do:1. Port O2 housing to hell2. Port the WG side of the turbine housing and get a 34mm flapper from TRE3. Maybe get a larger A/R. Say like a 7cm^2.Rob

I'll be the first 2G guy I guess. My 2g manifold has a small crack about an inch away from the collector on the top side of the mani. It is small, so I'm not really worried about it.Rob

Yes it will end up costing more, but you end up getting more in the end.K&N FIPK is the Fuel Injection Performance Kit which is made for the stock mas. I got that on my car already. You would need the Dejon tool 2 3/4" intake for non mas cars too and a 3in K&N filter for it.Emissions...

I completely agree. In the past few months there has been a huge development in the DSM world that is now becoming mainstream. There is a company that makes a translator for our car so we can use a GM MAF. What is even more awesome is that it has the ability to be used like a super AFC.What...

Alright cool.Rob

Don't be a dick.Anyway, why do people get ARP headstuds then? Is it because they are lazy and don't want to tune for low knock. I think not.RobBTW The sky is purple.......................sometimes.:p

Yeah, the ACT 2600 is freaking awesome. I have an automatic, but both of my friends have the ACT 2600 and they can drop that thing from high revs and not even phase it. It grabs hard too when they just dump the thing while going through the gears. My friend has an all stock Talon Tsi and this...

The 14B is easily capable of 250hp. I believe a full exhaust, MBC, FP rewire, and 190lph fuel pump should be able to support 18psi on this turbo. That should give you around 250ish. Its all speculation. I have AWD so a dyno is few and far between.Rob

Do you happen to have the trap speeds for those cars? I consider traps to be a better indicator of the kind of power they have especially for racing from a roll. My transmission isn't the best for racing from a stop.I guess I'll just go out and start a fight with one and see what the outcome...
