It's probably "Electric pulsar beige" if it's fabric. I had it in my 97 till I threw it all in the trash :)

Old bump. Here's the stock GSX splash shield behind Outlander rotors after a bit of prying and a fresh coat of powder.

Geez. This thing is cursed.Blown head gasket, just in time for vacation.

Very rough cut, after I removed the styrofoam plugs. They need a fair bit of sanding/trimming and some more epoxy before they look pretty. I'm still going to make a vented hood bump extension before I make any cuts to factory hood. Whatever I do, will most likely be transferred over to an OEM...

Why not vent it the same way as the factory intake system???I made a cold air box around a k&n filter that draws its air through the factory fender snorkel.

Since my stock hood has some damage, I'm not too worried about messing it up. Mealing Racing had an OEM hood with extra vents cut just in front of the strut towers. It did not look too bad, even tho it was just holes in the hood. Some louvers would definitely make it more effective.Break...

Bumping an old post to see if anyone can point me in the right direction.6-bolt swapped 2G with 2G head, that is running great when cool.If I've been driving the car for awhile, the factory dash gauge never goes over midway. My after market coolant gauge is usually between 200-215 while...

Reinstalled the OEM radiator in hopes of fixing the hot start issue with factory hood.Added a wire between relays so both fans turn on when the main fan is activated.Exactly the same problem.Even with a thick washer added at the rear of the hood to let heat escape out the back, I'm still...

Hot start issue fixed I believe.Too bad I hate this hood. I'm playing around with cutting up my damaged steel hood and adding some extraction vents.

Holes didn't line up, crank hits, main studs, wasn't flat, leaked from around flange, no hole for factory dipstick. I put pictures in my build thread. I am running a stroker, so that may introduce extra clearance issues.

Good luck on the oil pan. It took me forever to get that thing to fit my car and be leak free. Did you test fit it yet?

Hot start issue still happening. I'm beginning to wonder if the extra thick Mishimoto radiator is just not letting enough air flow through the radiator compared to the stock, thinner factory one. I may try swapping the stocker back in. I have not been stranded yet. :) The oil leak is from...

Couple issues. It appears I am still losing some oil, but nothing is dripping on the ground when parked. Yesterday I ran into a Hot start issue several times. I don't think my fuel tank vent (emissions delete) is working quite right. Coolant levels when parking are around 210F which is about...

Car is back together, and seems to be working fine. This clutch definitely drives different. Much easier to stall.No more parasitic battery drain. New $68 amazon alternator appears to have fixed this.OBX Racing oil pan received a coating of JBWeld around the bottom of the entire flange to...

PLA is great for things like masks. I wouldn't use it for anything on, or in a car tho.Polycarbonate is what I plan on using when I print some parts for my cars.

1 horn drivers side. 1 horn behind battery if you had factory alarm (on GSX).

I'm not sure about the eclipse, but on the talons there is a steel bracket to help hold the bumpers shape. It was pretty rusted when I was working in my car, maybe yours fell off?

When I had a 1G manifold I taped into the middle support boss on the bottom into the third cylinder.

Leak testing the OBX Racing oil pan complete.Yep, it's junk.The only difference I can see with this and the Moroso is the fully welded exterior flange. If OBX had copied that it would be leak free. You can see water seeping through in a couple sections.Not sure I agree with their slogan...

Update after leak testing with water.Don't bother with this pan.If they fully welded the outside of the flange like the Moroso, it would be leak free. 2 sections have water seeping through the welded area. Time for more welding.

The modification continues. The pan fully bolts up, and clears the rods.I also had to trim off a small section of the flange to clear the oil filter housing.No amount of block sanding would have got this thing flat. I did end up adding JBWeld on both ends to fill the low spots, then...

Old post, but I'm attempting to make this pan fit on my 6-bolt stroker.It might fit on a stock engine, but It definitely does not fit with aftermarket rods, ARP bolts...etc... And they definitely did not surface it flat. Once it's flat, the rod bolts on #2 are making major contact on an area...

Zipties work great there if that's where I think it is.

Rebuilt EVO III 16G with Tradergreg kit.New parts!And of course, while you're in there.....OBX knockoff of the Moroso oil pan. **UPDATE** It might be due to the stroker, and aftermarket bolts/rods, but I would not recommend this pan. It's not worth the time to make it fit.Lots of...

Who's BROKDSM in Airdrie? Awesome looking 2G. Hopefully mine is fixed soon too.

Not what I planned to get, but couldn't pass since it was available.

Engine support bar made with scrap. Only cost was a couple nuts, and the welding consumables.Looking for opinions. I was hoping to see something more obvious. PP/Clutch/Flywheel were all used, but low mileage. They looked decent to me. New OEM TOB looks fine, but I will replace it anyway...

Transmission is almost ready to pull. I will get to use my homemade engine support bar for a second time. :)Not going to order parts till I'm 100% sure what I need, but I'm assuming new clutch/PP, and flywheel. When the car broke down, there was smoke coming out of the breather ports on the...

The rattling noise has been found.Since some lunatic went crazy with the RightStuff, I will need a new oil pan, so I will be putting on an aftermarket aluminum one. It was leaking anyways.

SUPER old bump...... but..... What should I expect to see when I pull the pan? :p Or is that horrible rattling something else?

Finally trying to figure out what is wrong.The car shifts into gear fine, and moves under it's own power. I've been moving it out of the garage to do other projects. There is a rattle noise that sounds like it's coming from the block, near the transmission. I don't think something is wrong...

Every Talon I've ever seen in Canada has a spoiler. ESI, and TSI. The small thumbnail spoiler on the 95-96, and the larger one on 97-98's.

They get crushed at the salvage yards in Canada all the time.

Just in time for the good weather. The curse continues.Something broke on engine. I thought it was the turbo, but it seems to spin freely, no additional play, with some oil pre-turbo that isn't recirculated.It still revs fairly quick, but makes no boost at all. I pulled into a parking...

I powder-coated mine with high temp silicone powder, then wrapped it with DEI Titanium header wrap.

I've been driving mine fairly regularly, until global warming froze the battery a couple days ago. A battery blanket is on it's way. I hope it fits, since it's such a tight fit around the battery area.

Not much to see.Before I prettied it up.After. I added some speed holes and a decal to the power transistor bracket.

Noticed a problem today in traffic ..... I seem to have zero boost in first gear. 2/3/4/5 are all fine.It looks like I've developed a boost leak on one of my lower IC couplers.Checked lower IC pipes for oil. None found.Inspected turbo for play. I'm pretty sure there is a little bit more...

Made a proper map sensor mount out of the factory GM mount, and a some scrap steel.Made a new, stronger front camera mount. It's identical to the old one, but has an extra bend of steel on the edge.Moved the old front camera mount to the rear tow hook.Ordered a pair of CNC'd...

Akaso EK7000 action camera on front tow hook mount. The mark on left side is a crack on my old case. I did a test with my $38cdn Costco special last week, and the quality on the Akaso is way better. The costco camera will get moved with this mount to the rear tow hook. I'm going to make a...

Battery was purchased new last summer. I haven't really looked at the parasitic draw for a week. As long as it doesn't go more then 1 day it's fine. I'll eventually track it down. I just use the battery quick disconnect if I know it will be sitting 2 days.It is definitely losing oil...

Semi-polished my carbon rock shield, installed it and went for a drive. I'll have to see if it rattles at high speed, but it seemed fine with a quick acceleration up to 80km/h.It does an awesome job of transporting snow around. My garage should be full of water in the morning. :P

First couple legal drives..... This car is insane. But it has a cost. First 166kms used 1/2 a tank of fuel. :PNext issue... I am loosing oil, but there is nothing accumulating on the ground under the car. Front catch can has nothing in it. Rear catch can had maybe 40mL of yellowy water...

Alignment done. I tried to set the ride height as close to OEM as I could, with my Koni Yellows/GC setup. The passenger side rear toe is just outside of spec. I suspect the car is riding a bit lower then stock.

This isn't the OEM Evo coil pack bracket, but I did my best to copy it from pictures. I'm using 1G NGK spark plug wires (wrapped in black), and they fit fine.

I did the mod on the condensor fan, and was able to use bolts to secure it to the Mishimoto. The condensor fan fit fine, it was the main (passenger side) fan that wouldn't fit next to the J-pipe. Even trimming the housing down wasn't enough, I would have had to trim all the fan blades. I...

Registered and insured (as modified) with Hagerty.Pics for insurance. These are my old/junk wheels/tires since the car still needs an alignment. The car is mostly tuned. I'm going to toss my OEM GSX winter wheels/tires on in the next couple days.Personalized plate has been ordered.

Registered and insured it!

Put the small spring back in my GReddy Type RS. A blip of the throttle would go rich, then SUPER lean. Idle fixed. :)Made a couple small changes on the Profec-B
