I've been communicating with a dealer overseas and I've located 3 sets of EDM tail lights. They also have 17 others but they are just the right side, which I would assume would be useless. I am waiting for his next reply of a price shipped to the United States. Just seeing if there is...
I ordered this last Friday. It hasn't come in yet. But I also ordered a 10" fan, 12" fan, and a koyo along with it. I am not too happy with my coolant temps with my hx-40 aluminum rod motor in this 90-100* heat. I'll let you guys know my experience if it's worth it.I also really need to vent...
No visable rust in any of the pics, aside from the rusted nuts and bolts in the engine compartment.I'd say it looks "mint" from the pics. I get what you are trying to say, but let's be serious. There are not many 2g gsx's in this condition now days that are for sale.That is all.
$12,900 for a car that has less than 70k on it and making OVER 600awhp? I'd say its worth taking a look and throwing out an offer.Too many idiots on this board now days. As the days progress, mint, rust-free, low milage dsm's are getting a lot harder to come by. Almost every 2g I see has...
Mine gets creep occasionally. It seems to occur on hot days. My boost controller is set at 15psi, and it's creeped up to 20-21psi at times. I'm running a ported evo 3 o2 housing, megan dp, and a modified 3" hks carbon ti catback. I probably need to port out the wastegate port on the turbine...
I did. I actually ordered mine from them. Their site probably needs to be updated. They don't have this turbo in stock. When I placed my order, it was drop shipped from FP. :thumb:Typically when FP is out/no longer making a turbo, it is immediately removed from their site. Sounds like...
I hate to rain on your parade, but I think I bought the last 18g turbo from Forced Performance. Check their site, it is no longer listed.Forced Performance Turbochargers: DSM Turbochargers
has anyone mentioned in here spring pressure at all in this thread? single or dual isnt going to matter, its all spring pressure. just because its dual, doesnt make it any stiffer. brian crower lists on their site:jackson auto machine lists for their JAM dual valve spring kit:^there...
if you think fwd is so great, then why are only 4 of the top 25 fwd?!?! mean while the other 21 are awd? last time i check 21>4.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/timeslips.phpand by the way...an 8 sec in the 1/8 will put you around a 12.5-13.5. not rather impressive if you ask me.
you forgot...valve stem seals. ~$30.and i would just buy a new oil pump. no point in doing all this work, and possibly having to replace it in the near future.
it should be a 6 bolt. i dont know why anyone would swap a 7 bolt from a 6 bolt. but you cannot tell if its a 6 bolt from that pic. feel around the lip (where the oil pan is bolted to the block) of the oil pan just under the harmonic balancer. if its flat, its a 6 bolt. if its slightly...
a good sign of the valve making contact with the piston is there would be fresh witness marks. the valve, if indeed is making contact with the piston, should have taken off a layer of carbon off the top, exposing clean metal.
It's very possible. I had dsm wiseman "steve" rebuild my bad ECU. He did an amazing job and even gave me a print up of all the work that was done to the board.I would have that ECU rebuilt asap, before more damage is done to the board and making the repair more costly.
i dont see a removal slot for the lock ring. find out what the diameter of the wrist pin is, and the diameter of the piston bore hole. if it takes a lock ring, the clearance should be somewhere around 0.0008-0.0010". if the piston we a full round bottom, and didnt have a lock ring and had a...
take your time and rebuild it yourself. if you dont know how to rebuild an engine, do some reading. if you dont have to tools to do it, you might be screwed in paying someone "reputatable" to do it. good luck.
yeah sorry and the spelling mistake. but what was grammatically incorrect? please fill me in. and my "beef?" this thread was supposed to be about "pros/cons of awd/fwd." not, im buying these parts...what else should i get.this thread is full of post whoring. i wish it would end. (see...
if you only reving it to 8k, BC's springs will be great with 280 cams. when my engine is fully broken in, ill be reving my BC 280's and springs past 9k.
the search button should be used first before "what should i spend my money on" question is asked. and yes, there are way too many threads like this. but anyway, back to post whoring guys. and by guys, i mean bmxr.:beatentodeath:
the original baro sensor is in the maf. the maf-t is supposed to send a constant signal. my maf-t did the same thing. except it was throwing three codes total: baro, coolant temp, and intake temp. i replaced the coolant temp, but i never got the intake air or baro code to go away. i ended...
they are the defi d-series boost, egt, a/f. the entire d-series is discontinued. they are hard to come by. i love them for the fact that they match the stock gauge backing and lighting perfectly.here is them light up in their old location while i was waiting for my current pod.
also, i didnt see you say this before, but did you change the oil after it overheated? that is almost always required when a car overheated, becuase it breaks down the oil a thousand times faster. but as you already know, its time to rebuild then engine. i would recemend a valve grind too if...
this is what id do, drain as much gas as you can and put in fresh gas. and leave that old gas for the lawnmover. im just anal about some things i guess.
then i guess you already knew that you were going with 1000's over the 850's. :sneaky:but also, i dont know if it was mentioned above, but you wont need the BC springs and retainers if you only running 264 cams. aftermarket springs arent entirely necessary unless using cams larger then...
way to compare apples and oranges. simple lesson for you. the silverado, sierra, envoy, trailblazer, etc. all have a common 5.3l, 5.7l, 6.0l variant of the similar v8. dropping an ls7 into any of those vechicles could be done with little effort while still being able to maintain 4x4. unlike...
2 of those three cars mentioned above are already set up for rwd. there is a HUGE difference turning an engine 90 degrees. maybe you dont know how much work goes into a ls1 rx7, etc.maybe i just expect a little too much out of people. maybe i think everyone should be smarter then they...
huh?!?!? an AWD ls7????? horrible idea. where are you doing to get a transfer case for that? where in the hell are you going to fit a front differential? retarded idea.it can be done, with lots of money, time, resources, etc. unless your very wealthy, have too much time on your...
where in those thread that you posted have any NUMBERS in there?fact: radiators have a very high drag coeficient.radiators are great heat exchangers. and thats basically it.and as for my "crazy" numbers, in looking for that article as we speak. obviously i dont think anyone...
200 mph wind through a 4" thick intercooler core, exits at 14 mph. yeah, that wont affect cooling. :rollseyes:as for the "extra ponies" from a stock 2g w/ a t25, id like to see that. was that done with an upgraded smic? if there were even gains with a stock t25 2g with a fmic, (even with...
