if i still lived in "the falls" i would be happy to meet you and help out with anything, but sadly i moved almost two years ago. i really only know of two "DSMers" still in the area but i don't think they have dsms anymore. "Crispy" hasn't had one in a while, Jerome "The Flying Monkey" (from the...

i have a 92 eclipse gsx with a "jdm" galant vr4 engine. the problem is that my car doesn't read past the middle mark of the temp gauge (though it was just 2 days ago) but when i finish driving and shut the engine off the coolant os "bubbling" and sometimes blows out the overflow tank. i have...

it work's vice versa ... i used to run a 92 fwdt ecu in my old 90 awd with no problems (swapping pin 6 and 14)

it's been about 5 or 6 years ago but i remember this honda kid came up to my and a friend (he had a 91 gsx and i had a 92 tsi fwd back them) and said his civic was "forced induction" too and wanted to run us. we run him and leave him behind like is standing still. after we meet back up we asked...

nottrying to deture you but i would save my pennies and get a gm maf and translator. but that's me, i hate messing with the 2g maf. it doesn't matter if you use the stock 2g rubber intake or an aftermaket one, it is still a PTA to put in. make sure you have an safc or something too or you fuel...

yeah i figured i would have to do that ... i was hoping some here knew right off

hello all, well my searching has not really gotten me anywhere so i am posting and asking. is the wiring different for the safc and the safc II? reason being i have a safc on my 92 gsx but the display is crapping out on it as it comes on when i push on the unit. i have a safc II just sitting...

you could also get underive pulleys, that would free up some rotating mass and make power. you can also advance timing a little, plus what has already been said .. remove your air can ... put a k&n or similar air filter ... try to find a gst, tsi fwd or laser rs fwd exhaust to bolt on. i don't...

nope ... nuttin

yeah i don't pay to much attentio to dates aymore ... just relavent info to what i am searching for ... and if i see something i ### to comment on i do :hellyeah:

hey thanx ... i thought you could something like that ( a buddy of mine does that to all his dsms, claims that the heater hoses raises intake temps and negates the intercooler ... i dunno, but he is an ase "master" technician", while i am only a lube tech at nissan ...) i will probably replace...

hello all, well it appears i am having a problem with the heater core on my 92 gsx. all my coolant is going in the driver's seat area. i have another heater core but i am wondering if i need to have the heater core at all??? could i possibly just block it off or would it be better to just...

there was a black one too that the guy was selling for like 4k ... at least that is what one airman told me ... had alot of stuff on it toowell if you ever see a little blue nissan pick up with a light beacon on top that's me ... says big daddy's, collins and donnies all over it.:thumb:

yeah they are few and far between here. there were 2 galant vr-4s at one time ... i have a blue 91 gsx, a buddy of mine has a 92 black gsx ... and there are a few on base ... and i have seen a primered fwd 1g talon around, oh yeah and bill of the 3 fingers has two a 92 laser awd and a 95 talon...

not to wake the dead but if you are still in WF and have or care about DSMs... i have been out of the "seen" for a while but i am getting back into it. i am currently rebuilding a 91 eclipse gsx.

i have seen it too ... it's a talon i think. i live by missle road and work for a wrecker company so i am on base alot.

just get whatever you like best. i have owned both 1gs and 2gs and i like 2gs a little bit better (the 99 eclipse gsx is my fav or the 98 talon tsi awd ...). but i do own a 91 gsx ....And lets face it-HOW MANY CHICKS HAVE YOU SEEN DRIVING AROUND IN A 1g?:cool:actually there are a few here...

i would think about replacing the restrictive upper intercooler piping and throttle body elbow but keeping the stock bov. i found my UIP on ebay for like $50 ... a little sanding, primer, and paint ... good as newi almost forgot, replace ALL the timing components like the timing belt and...

joes bucci? ran a 10.8 with his 14b on a 90 fwd laser ...:hellyeah:

soory no 2g trannys, but i do have a 90 awd tranny with a broken 3rd gear!

aren't the caps labeled I for intake E for exhaust with numbers for placement also ....

i have so many "kids" that get these cars and immidiatly want to turn up the boost.

amen brother ... it would suck to put a couple grand under the hood to just break a timing belt or BS belt (been there)

al i can say is with a boost controller and stock fuel pump is BE CAREFULL and don't just start "cranking the boost". i think the exhaust system and upper intercooler pipes should be your first choices. i would also take the air fuel light show back as it is a useless gauge unless your running a...

i had a setup kinda like that on my old tsi fwd, it had good spool up and top end and i LOVED how loud it was .... my parents and inlaws always mistook the trashtruck for me :hellyeah:

i guess i should have been more specific. does the intake manifold connect to the left outlet and the FPR to the one on the right?that is how i am reading that diagram anyways ....

yes replace the balance shaft belt!!!!!!!!! i cheaped out once and did not replace it .... about 3k miles later the belt broke and took my timing belt with it (along with 10 vlaves):cry:

hello all, i need to know if anyone out there knows where the Fuel Pressure Silenoid connects to on a 95 gst. i bought this car recently and had to pretty much re-assemble everything. anyways the guy had this disconnected and i would like to hook it back up but i forgot where it connects to...

that kind of mexican witchcraft won't work .... j/k ... i have had to do this myself twice now

i can be done but it's not simple replacement ...RRE has a detailed how to on their site RRE's Eclipse 2g Turbo to 1g Head Swap Tipsi am in the process of doing this myself (i bought the car with it already but incorrectly) :thumb:

the tires started smoking not squealing. not my car but i was there ....

that actually does make sense ... i double checked it before i put the valve cover back on but i haven't rechecked it. maybe i need a new torque wrench...

i have yet to check the threading ... i am certain i have bolts, i needed a 10 hex socket on an actual bolt, no nuts involved. i was thinking the isc motor also. i had it running for like 5 minutes yesterday but it seemed like it was getting hot fast. the air isn't really consistent but it...

i know how you feel ... i have been trying to get my gsx running all weekend before i go back to work :(

also ... i don't have head studs ... i bought new head bolts,new head gasket, new belts, new water pump, pulleys and tensioner. i also just got my head back from the machine shop...

i doubt it's that ... my coil pack is sparking and i hear a kind of clicking and humming sound from the throttle body/intake manifold area... i switched injectors and it sounds better but it won't stay idling for long... also i have this surge of pressured air? coming from the intake area also...

couldn't have said it better myself ... i would also wait about 15 minutes then spin the crank about 6 times and make sure it's still lined up, if not start over and repeat ...

i have a 90 gsx that i recently put a new head gasket (w/ new bolts) and new belts ... i have assembled everything and plugged everything back in but it still won't start. my timing is good, i have spark and am getting fuel, my compression is 125-130-130-145. when i try staring it gallops and...

i remember a friend of mine trying one for his 98 rs w/ turbo that he bought from someone that had a 95 tsi and it not fitting ... but hey i have a 90 gsx not a 2g non turbo ....

no it's not

i would make sure all the bolts on the exhaust manifold are tight ... i had a similar problem a few years back and that was the culprit ...

i have to agree with using a logger ... i had to borrow my bros logger when i installed a 2g MAF and SAFC I ... it sputtered quite a bit until we tuned for it.

mach V used to have them ... they may still, i don't know. i think extreme motorsports had them too. pacesetter/monza made a couple also, i think. hope it helps more than just "check ebay" :rolleyes:

not true ... they were called eclipses there and they had the gs and gsr-4 (our gsx) ... they made 15 or so with gull wing doors and sold for the equivlant of $50,000 .

does anyone know where i can get a decent priced 14b turbo (in good condition used or new). i need something to replace my failing 16g.

i don't use impact wrenches or breaker bars and it took me like 2 hours for the swap (14b to 13g with automatic exhaust man. on my 90 awd)... took my buddy like an hour and a half to do a t25 to 14b swap (without the kit ... just connecting tubes with fuel hose and clamps).

90 mt cams are not the best stock cams to go with

i didn't think about that ... probably the 92 then. honestly i don't think there is much difference. i have used o2s sensors from 90-94 on both my 90 and 92 turbos... right now i have a 90 ecu in my 92 tsi and i am using a 92 o2 sensor with no problems at all.

it could be the wastegate acuator. my bro had a problem similar to that. he would boost to 15psi then it would spike up to 20+ and fuel cut.
