I appreciate your help, I will put the front mount, and the AIT on my list then. (might as well go speed density then)As I said I want to do everything to lower the temperatures, so the FMIC will help too. But this takes a lot of time with all the measuring and the welding (possibly), so I...
Yep It's way to loud, and also dumps a lot of hot air right under my engine bay. I'm doing everything I can to decrease my engine bay temperatures, so I thought the OEM O2 pipe will help with that.The police is also getting more strict with checking modified cars here in Hungary, and it...
Last weekend I had some freetime so I took the rear brakes apart, I got new pads and discs, and since I alredy head the Russel SS kit for the rear too, I swapped that too. I wouldn't say the rear brakes were in bad shape but now they are brand new.Speaking of bad shape, I noticed earlier that...
Thank you!I asked around yesterday, and found out they are different. The N/A ones are tuned for more torque, but lose power after 5k rpm, the GS-T ones are more in sync with the turbo.But with my little t25, there is no sense in changing... it dies after 5k anyways 😅
What are the part numbers? Maybe I can find out more if I try to look up their specifications. I was almost sure there is a differnece, the CR numbers are different in the 2 variants too...Thanks but they are pretty much in the engine right now, and I don't want to open it up, until I see if...
Hi guys!I have a 2G GS (Eu spec, N/A 4G63). I converted it to turbo, mostly with stock GS-T parts. I changed the pistons to EVO 8, but I left the cylinder head OEM. Does anyone have any information about the Eu spec camshaft being different then the GS-T camshaft?The car behaves normal, I...
I had some time to work on the car, so I've done the Evo front brake swap. I done it with changing to Galant Knuckles, I also added Russel SS brakes lines, and mounted the OEM Evo dust shields. One hole is a bit off, but with a small cutting and a bigger washer, I could easily solve that...
Hi guys!After a year of driving I pulled the exhaust manifold to add some heat shielding. Meanwhile I checked the valves and noticed a slight black buildup on the exhaust valves. I doesn't seem serious, but i think the combustion is not perfect, here is the best pic I could take:I am...
Hey there!I did a quick search on google and found this 2 part tutorial video. It's a full guide on how to install the steering wheel. It is in Spanish, but it has english subtitles and it's pretty straightforward anyways.But without welding experience or a welder friend this might not be...
That is a great list! You will need to run over it maybe once again, but it covers about everything you will need for a 300 hp build.As for the 'may not need' parts:- An MDP is not necessary, a MAP sensor better, but it's still only going to be used for fine tuning if you have ECMlink...
You should be proud of the thorough work you are doing getting ready for the turbo build! It's always better to get all the information and have a complete plan first, then start the build, many people do it the other way around and left with a messed up project that never runs again.A wanted...
It's always a pleasure to help another fellow European DSMers :D I'm sure your country has some type of aftermarket shop, everyone has something and they can help with getting parts. Even a general parts shop can help you with some basic maintenance parts.
As for the first mods, I absolutely...
I have a EU Spec 2G too, I bought it in 2017, and I was basically in the same shoes as you. I learned a lot from this site, and asked many questions when I got into it deeper.The mods you wrote are good mods (I also like that you included handling an braking upgrades). You can gain some power...
Thank you for the tip! I had some time this weekend, so I adjusted the TPS to factory spec, and set up my AFR and MAP sensor again to make sure it reads everything correctly.After that I reset everything to 0 in mafcomp and started calibrating again, and that did the trick! First I set the...
Hi guys!I have a mostly stock GS-T (OEM injectors, T25 turbo, OEM MAF) with EVO 8 pistons and rods. I just got into using logging and tuning with ECMLink and already have questions at adjusting my MAFcomp and my TPS.In the first week of using ECMlink, I went by Todays Project guides videos...
Thank you Stefan!I'm new to changing things in the map, where should I exactly look at when I want to change the WOT AFR target? I plan on ising this evo base map and slowly changing things after logs, but if I can get a step ahead I would be happy with that. I might be asking some more...
Thank you Tina! It is harder to build these cars here in Europe but not impossible, sometimes you just need a little creativity :D Like I wanted a new 3bar map sensor, and learned here that the GM 3bar MAP is an easy swap, but it's very hard to find here in Europe. So instead I went with a Ford...
It turns out, my knock sensor couldn't take the heat on the track. Also it was never changed so it could be expected to go wrong anytime. I went to a local shop and they had a Mitsubishi knock sensor on storage, but it was the md304933 OEM number. (It is for the 3g Eclipse and other 4g64...
I ordered the MD300670, but I had the time today so I installed it, and logged 4-5 pulls, for future reference if anyone needs it. It really has a different sensitivity or frequency.
The knock number is everywhere between 0-10 on pulls, thus the timing is all over the place too. As a result...
Thank you for the help!The actual sensor that I have is this:
https://www.kmotorshop.com/en/article-detail/view/220489/other-hof7517939-hofferAt the 'used in' part it writes its compatible with 2g (and also with many other cars), but the OEM part number is MD304933, so that's why it's confusing
Hi guys!I recently found out that my knock sensor is bad, and I want to replace it.I started looking for a replacement part, and I was so happy I found one at a local shop, so I immediately bought it. I later found out that it is a replacement for the MD304933 knock sensor which is the 3G...
April 2023 updateI finished intalling the ducktail on the DSM, and it looks like it's always been there :) At first I was nervous about the outcome, I've never seen a 2g with ducktail in my life. But the end result is even better than I expected, It really gives the car a unique look.In...
Hi guys!I found a deal on a pair of front Evo brakes (it was 350 $ + the guy even gave me a set of almost new racing pads). They have I small issue on one of the rubber seals, but I am planning to rebuild all of them anyway. So I bought them and started researching what would I need for a...
It's probably a knockoff. The seller told me he doesn't know what type of turbo it is, but maybe it's not OEM (it's hard to understand, he only speaks google translate english).And also, he doesn't want to take more pictures, so I am not taking the risk.Thank you for your help.
Hi guys!I found a deal on a turbo but I cannot tell from the pictures what type of turbo is this. Can you help? Is this a 14b or a 16g? I have a guess it's a 16g but I want to be sure. These are the only pictures the seller have.Thank you for the help!
Thank you! Yes, an ECMlink would be really helpful, but it impossible to find here, and getting one from the US would cost a fortune. Same goes with the 16G but I'm good with this setup now, I'm just keeping an open eye.I think the car is reliable now with the stock GST mapping, My friend...
Big update #2 - 2021-2022As I promised I am writing another bigger update. Now about 2021-2022, in the end I hope I can reach where I am now, so there will be smaller updates after this :)So, I left off at the end of 2020 when I started the chassis restoration project.I was holding this job...
I was a bit busy since I made my last update, but I always planned to update my build thread. Since my workplace has kind of a winter pause, now I have the time to update.A lot has happened with the car since 2019. I had to rebuild the engine (twice), changed the suspension, restored the...
Hi guys!I have a turbo 2G. After driving for ~3000 miles with no new mods or problems, my 2G started running super rich, and the car just dies, it has no idle. It is showing P0100 code referring to MAF circuit, I checked the cables, cleaned the MAF but it didn't fix the issue.I saw some...
Thanks for the reply, I really appriciate it :) I updated the DSM profile, although I would call it Gsi-T but that wasn't an option :DYes it was measured at the wheels, at ~0.8 bar boost pressure, maybe it could get better with ECMLink, but you know hard is it to get, and to find someone to...
Long time no writing, but I've done some work on the car in the last 4 months :) Now that the turbo convert is done, I'm starting to focus on the smaller frustrating little things.First I changed the clutch, the stock N/A one always slipped. Well it's not a minor thing I know, so that was the...
I had racing wheel on the car, so I just used the adapter from that, I needed to do some modifications to it, but now it works. It's also common to buy a 1G steering wheel and use its parts as a hub, but that requires welding.Oh, and btw: I have the steering wheel in for a while now, but I...
Hi!I'm planning to put a EVO 8/9 steering wheel in my Eclipse, I found the process to do it here, I'm familiar with, but most guides say that it's dangerous to hook up the airbag to the car. I understand it's dangerous. But most posts I saw about this are 5-6 years old, so my quiestion is: Is...
I know it may be a stupid question, but I have no idea :)
So I have an EUDM Eclipse GSi (the one with the N/A 4g63) I put a turbo on it and now the oem clutch can't hold the performance. I'm planning on changing the clutch but I don't know if I need to change the flywheel. If I buy a clutch kit...
Wow, thanks for the help :) they really have some good parts for me, It's a bit expensive, I asked around some European DSMers too, we'll see how this works out
Thanks for the tip, I'll look them up, but my main problem is even if they do shipping, It will double the price (Hungarian customs suck :( ), so I'll keep on looking after European vendors
So I've been driving the car around for like 400 miles now, and all the parts are working great, only one issue came up.. the oem clutch can't handle the increased power, so it slips if I hit full throttle (and when shifting ofc), now I always have to carefully accelerate, which for me, is...
The wastegate pressure is 0,6 bar, I'm running a Manual boost controller too, at 0,8bar thats about the maximum you will want from a T25 it's a small turbo. My ecu had 4 connectors too (mine was S/N MD334797) they just swapped the signal for the A/C pump and the Fuel pump for some reason on the...
Hi, I've heard about you :) Always happy to see a fellow DSMer from Europe! :)Transmission change will comes handy, now I'm having issues with the clucth, it just slips all the time. but other than that the car is mechanically good, runs very stable, so I can say I'm done with the engine...
IT IS DONE
Long time not posting, but now, after I'm done with the ECU and the Fuel Pump, the car is stable around any RPMs. So I guess I can say It's a working car now :cool:
I did an Engine flush just in case, now I'm constantly checking the screws if any loosens, or if anything leaks, but no...
I can't tell you excatly, I don't have an oil pressure meter only the OEM one, but the oem goes reaches halfway to the lower line, and the oil warning is flashing all the time.
I'll put try putting in the GST ecu, but I don't see how that can solve the problem
Can the problem be that I bought...
I've been looking around threads on here, do you think this ECU rewire mod is also good with a '97 EUDM gsi (4g63 N/A) too?
https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/turbo-ecu-in-a-spyder-gs.424084/
MAF is the same, I didn't change that. The fpr is different, I changed that during changing the injectors, I just forgot to write that down at first :)
yeah, I hope so thats the problem. The only problem is the new ecu doesn't send signal to the fuel pump, do you think there is a guide somewhere here how to hook it up with the fuel pump?
Hi guys!
I live here in europe and I have an N/A 4g63 Eclipse. I am converting to turbo, so I changed the injectors to 450cc, and put in a Gst ecu, but it doesn't send signal to the fuel pump. So basically I wanna change a MD334797 to a MD335287, but I don't know what to do with the wiring to...
MAJOR UPDATE: started up today, many problems occured.
Yesterday I finished off with putting the turbo oil return line together, and putting the exhaust downpipe on, finishing with the vacuum lines, and some small bits that remained. Today I started her up, I knew I will have issues, because at...
