    2G Loosing coolant

    Then replace all the hoses, therm, take the therm housing off and inspect and replace it w fresh rtv. Replace all your coolant hoses if they arent already brand new. Get the heater and tb hoses too! It can only be so many things. And its good maintenance too. I recently did all mine. Peace of mind.

    Man I'd sell you mine for 15k! lol. Brand new everything, tuned, manual 98 gsx, fast af! I wouldn't buy that one, 15k is alot for a unfinished project.

    2G Running extremely rich and dead time/global fuel don’t seem to affect AFR

    Everything looks good to me! Make sure that balance shaft belt has enough tension. And torque the bolts properly on the various timing components. I agree, the plastic tool works decent, but still need a wrench on each cam bolt to really get er lined up just perfect. Using binder clips works way...

    White smoke from exhaust?

    My car was EXACTLY same. Was the valve seals. Changed em, my issues all went away. I had white smoke too.

    Kinugawa Turbo?

    Never really impressive!? You're crazy! Lol. 20gs are the best street turbo of all time! That turbo looks good to me! Downfiring too is a plus!

    2G Did GSC lifters kill my motor???

    I'd say you jumped timing or its timing related. Not the lifters. When my timing belt went i had exact same as you but it was the intake cam and rockers everywhere. From the intake side laying strewn about in the head.

    sorta new again DSMer....exhaust questions

    My HKS exhaust took less than 5 minutes to install. ZERO fitment issues.

    sorta new again DSMer....exhaust questions

    I recommend the HKS Hi-Power exhaust. Its great. Gets loud when it is supposed to, not when just cruising like some obnoxiously do.

    Do my pistons look dented or scuffed?

    Yup looks like you bent some intake valves. Pistons look fine though.

    Axle

    I had to use one from a mitsubishi expo. Only one that matches they said.

    1G turbo questions

    Id just get the 16g rebuilt. I love mine. And later upgrade your fuel system and really use that 16g for more hp with a tune.

    2G Engine shakes/sputters/hesitates under boost or WOT

    Id tell you, but its been covered a thousand times. Took me 6 bucks to make my own. Google make a boost leak tester dsm. And how to perform boost leak test dsm. Piece of cake man!

    2G vacuum lines + EGR Blockoff

    Just remove the purge, the egr, all of it and be done with it. Had mine like that for years. Runs perfect. Eliminate them all!

    2G Sputter and hesitating

    I agree, i have 2 of everything under the hood pretty much. Good to have handy. Throw nothing away.

    1G What Would you do? Run it or Rebuild?

    Common sense question, wait to destroy it or do it the right way. Cmon man dont make dsmers look foolish.

    2G Oil burning exhaust NOT the turbo

    So you saw wetness behind the turbine wheel. Well there ya go! Only takes a drop of oil to burn and make a cloud. Put in some new seals and or rebuild the turbo. If it was valve seals it wouldnt smoke while driving it, mainly smokes at idle and dissipates away when driving. Just my 2 cents.

    What Turbo is this? [Merged] Turbo ID Identification

    Definitely a 14b. Id recommend shopping for a 16g and keep that as a spare. It will come in handy down the road, trust me. My rule with dsm's is have 2 of everything on hand!

    2G Setting crank to tdc with timing belt already removed?

    Good lord i would clean er up a bit and replace some of those timing components, lookin a lil rusty. Not bein negative, just what i would do. Might as well while you in there right!

    Mass air flow issue

    Sounds a little like a fuel problem i had once. Hows your entire fuel system?

    2G Where to find a band clamp?

    Hey guys. Can someone please point me in the direction of a place that sells band clamps. I need one to connect my 16g to my 7cm hotside. Preferably an oem one. Thanks!

    Interesting Head Gasket Failure

    I just removed my head a week ago due to timing belt broke. My hg had zero marks on it like yours has. And i have had it on 3 years with zero problems on my composite hg. Definitely not good man.

    Coolant reservoir sludge (head gasket?)

    Yea thats just normal for a older dsm. Flush er out and you are golden. Mine was the same with perfect compression across the board.

    2G Bent valves, slapped pistons, need your opinion wisemen.

    2G Bent valves, slapped pistons, need your opinion wisemen.

    After looking at your pistons, i realize you are correct. Mine are still good thank god. Lifted my spirits up a little. Ive never worked on a dsm engine or took one apart before so i just flat out didn't know if the pistons were bad or ? Thank you sir.

    2G Bent valves, slapped pistons, need your opinion wisemen.

    Dang how did you get them so clean? What did you do? And thanks for your input. Much appreciated.

    2G Bent valves, slapped pistons, need your opinion wisemen.

    Yea i am rebuilding the whole head, i just wanted an opinion on where the valves hit the pistons. Thanks though. How they look? From what you can see anyways.

    2G Bent valves, slapped pistons, need your opinion wisemen.

    Had a pulley fail, shredded my timing belt on saturday. I took off the head and all my intake valves were bent. I have never taken a dsm engine completely apart and need to know the damage and any other advice offered. What a crappy weekend! Was just cruisin going 50 when it happened. Thanks in...
