    Drag Race Build 1990 Eclipsalon GSX - Stock frame turbos

    I see a lot of the local honda's with a steel piece down the center of the windshield when they run lexan. Do you know if this is necessary when switching to lexan? As far as I can tell it just needs to be 1/8 inch.

    6 bolt swap 7 bolt head 1995 eagle talon tsi

    I don't want to spread bad info here, but it sounds to me that if you re used a 7 bolt head that you should be able to run all the stock 2g stuff and be ok. I would try that.That 1g Cas still should run the the car if its wired correctly so I would just double check on the RRE site.Have...

    There is still a lot of hate on ds-map. The reason there was an issue from the beginning is because most of this site promotes link. <---like it or not. When someone asked a question and someone said "oh go check out ds-map its cheaper and better then link"....you had 100 pissed off people...

    Bubbles in Coolant

    Recently I have seen two cars 1 being a dsm have a similar problem. The DSM had a shitty cap. The rubber was cracked and was allowing coolant to leak past the cap. Car being to overheat a little, but lost some coolant. When we refilled the coolant it looked just like that. Bubbles seemed like a...

    Test Front o2 Sensor?

    You also need to check resistance across the two heater circuits. A bad heater won't allow the sensor to heat up to operating temp and may give you a skewed reading. Also check for power at the sensor + feed.If you use MAP gas its to induce a high reading. .1 = lean - or not much much fuel...

    ECMlink ECMLink V3 Beta Report

    Do not quote me, but I believe with ds-map you can run any MAP sensor that has a 0-5 volt reference. The higher the bar the more granularity you will lose in your tune. I ran a 3 bar last season and the car ran smoother and was more responsive then it was stock.

    Carrier bearings are the rubber boots around the driveshaft that bolt to the body of the car. There are 2 of them. Its normal for them to move a little, just not excessively.

    The Official "What's this DSM worth?" Thread

    I paid 2600 for my 93. had 90k and was completely stock. Seems like prices for these things went up a bit. I would say 2500-3000 is a reasonable price for it.

    Evo VIII Brakes on my 2g

    I guess if these would bolt up to a rear 1g then you could probabaly make a hydraulic e-brake system fairly easy

    Bucking And Stalling Problem! Help!

    Your fuel pressure should not be 10 psi. Either your gauge is wrong, your fuel filter is plugged solid, you have a leak, or your fuel pump is on the way out. Your fuel pressure should be about 42-43 psi

    done with honda, new to DSM

    My advice would be to first....read....read.....read. Learn the car before you spend money on something that might not help you(venting the BOV without a proper ems).

    Battery draining,found some gremlins...

    I personally ran into a similar problem. I installed a new alternator belt, and did not adjust tension on the belt correctly. The belt made a ton of noise, and eventually began to slip so bad my alternator was not charging my battery. The radio and other accessories killed the battery so much...

    Battery draining,found some gremlins...

    If you are testing voltage at the battery terminals, and its 11.2-.8 while running your alternator is not charging your battery. It could also be that your battery is junk, or there is a open/high resistance in a wire that controls alternator output. ex. the big red wire that attaches from...

    oil on spark plugs [Merged 11-7] oily wire wires cover valley well wells

    There are O-rings around each plug hole. The ring goes in between the valve cover and the cylinder head. Changing these o-rings and the valve cover gasket will most likely take care of your problem.

    Does this work?

    I have a dyno at school and i was wondering if i could pull the t-case out to dyno it. I know it won't be accurate, but i figure it would be fun to see what it has. Are there any negative effects of doing this?? thanks, Vinny

    Waterpump Questions

    Yea I agree, when i did my water pump I noticed it had been done before, and they used rtv or some sealant around where the pump meets the water pipe that runs behind the turbo. I could see how it would leak there and I think when you do your water pump you will find thats where it's leaking from.

    Waterpump Questions

    when i replaced my water pump I also replaced the timing belt. I am not 100% sure, but i would say you should take all that junk out of the way. Once you get to the pump it really isn't all that difficult to change. Just as a tip, make sure you unbolt the power steering pump from its bracket...

    Flickering in dash oil light

    Sounds like you have a short to ground. The only way i know how to fix it is to find a wiring diagram of the oil pressure sending unit. Once you have a print out you work your way up the schematic. Since you pulled the connector directly off the oil pressure sending unit you know the short is...

    5-speed, car won't shift

    Does the car shift into gears with the engine off? When you say the shifter doesn't move at all do you mean you can't move it to the left or right when in neutral, or do you mean 1st to 2nd?
