That intercooler is probably going to be a bottleneck in your system if you are shooting for almost 600whp. Judging by the design, it looks like it will get heatsoaked fairly quick and if you can't keep those intake temps down, you will never have consistent power.I would look into a VRSF...

Had this happen with a bolt extractor that snapped off inside just like yours. Bought a few different bits and dremel attachments but no luck with anything as well.Instead of pulling the head and after sitting there for hours drilling/tapping it with no luck, I decided to give this a try...

May be an old question but the info is still appreciated. I am looking into schools around chicago and possibly a cert class when I'm ready. Thanks again

Hey all you're missing now is a nice clean 1G!

I think it looks sick and would look even better personally with some nice Rally Mud Flaps.... anyone care to photoshop? :)

I had a fender smash up on my 2g when the wheel bearing went and sent the wheel flying into the fender and then proceeded right out to the opposite lane LOL.New fender cost me ~$90 shipped primered black already. If you really wanna be cheap you can rattle can the new fender black sand it...

Anything 1000cc or higher will suffice, seeing as you are already planning on going bigger in the future you will want something that can also support the flow of that 35r.

Hey did you scrap that talon??? If so, how much did you get?I have a 95 Tsi AWD I got for free that has some bad rust spots that I am considering striping/scraping so let me know how that went for you...

I know there is a tuner shop down in Florida that offers alignments and suspension tuning professionally.Anyone know if there is others in the Midwest area that offer the same?

Lol posted at 4:20 .... What were you doing up at that hour tuning your car huh? HahaAnyway nice job with figuring it out on your own. Read up some tutorials and get familiarized then you should be tuning soon enough no problems.

You could always give it a quick scrub with orange cleaner or some other degreaser and then just Plasti-Dip the rims.It is a cheaper solution than powdercoating all the rims but still makes the rims look brand new again...Besides looking good, the plasti-dip also protects the rim from...

They look great!!What are the cons of running these on a street/weekend car, if any?

These guys are exactly right with stating that a drop in HID kit is no good and will blind others more so than letting them see you so its not one of the greatest ideas...But, that doesn't mean you should drop the idea. A properly designed HID Retrofit Kit is what you need to look into...

If I'm not mistaken the abs sensor relays information off of the axle, not the hub.You should be fine with any 95-99 year wheel hub being it ABS or not. Just make sure you anti-seize the bolts, and where the hub and spindle meet real good when you install it and torque them down to spec...

Does anybody know if RockAuto.com carries these?? I have been looking but cannot seem to locate them. But that is a good deal on clipsandfasteners.com and they have a lot to offer.BTW... I have made out with a few various screws/bolts from the 2gs that have been sitting in the wreck yard for...

I had that same thing happen but luckily it was at around 15-20 mph and I was a few blocks from my house. But it caused enough damage as it was at that speed, I would double check all your front end components to make sure everything is in check before driving again.Also, find out if the...

Carvin, it seems you still cannot comprehend my point...What do you mean it "has no where to go" with the boost?? The car will accelerate forward at a greater speed once it builds all that boost and off you go. Hell, isn't that the main reason why turbos were put on sports cars in the first...

^^ Great point JusMX you are correct and I just realized the correlation too after looking at 94awdcoupe spool data post...I think what the OP was referring to as "bogging" in 5th is that maybe it just doesn't feel like the car is accelerating as fast as it would feel in a lower gear...

DON'T use it as a DD!!!! Thats all I have to say because like others said, this car should be kept in storage for another 6 years instead of being run down and used a daily car.

Nice job! But I usually see them installed over the front gap in the bumper cover.The only thing you would have to check is the clearance between the intercooler and the wire screen..If there is less than a half inch clearance, there is a chance a big rock can dent the wire mesh in and...

No, I don't dig.. In fact I feel as if what you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having...

This gave me a good laugh ROFLPlease explain why you would rather choose to do a pull in 1st than 5th if you are scared of the powertrain going?? Common sense tells you that in 1st gear there is much more force/strain on all of your drivetrain components because of how quick you are...

Ya, the more I am thinking about it the more it seems like it may need to be something custom welded.I am now thinking about ditching the FP manifold and getting a different one that can run the wastegate right off of the side runner for better boost control...Only problem will be figuring...

After more thinking and some research I think I am going to go with EXTERNAL and have it recirculate back into the exhaust pipe.Anybody have any recommendations on a shop that builds them... or know someone wanting to get rid of one??And should I be alright with a 38mm wastegate running...

All sorts of body kits you can get!!!some examples...1ga Talon 1ga Eclipse 1ga Laser 1gb Talon 1gb Eclipse 1gb Laser 2ga Eclipse 2ga TalonThe list can even go on.... :thumb:See much to choose from and all great styles in their own way..So take your time and...

Sorry to bring back a 9 year old thread but I have the exact same question as the OP as I am looking into getting a rebuilt Green at the moment and don't known which route to go with the wastegate...I am planning on running 26-28psi on a conservative tune and around 32psi on the hi boost...

Nice job! Make sure to give the engine/trans and all other smalls a nice cleaning while they are out of the car... Will be much easier than doing it after its all back in.

+1 for GRAPHITE GRAY evo 9 factory paint!!....That color looks amazing... especially at night...

Do you mean a rear DIFFUSER like many of the evo's are running??Like this...

Phoenix Gold has some good audio/wiring products...Amazon.com: Phoenix Gold Mobile Battery Terminal with Negative Post Reducer: Car ElectronicsDon't know if you can use it on positive terminal but Im sure they sell another part for positive connection.

^^^ Yes Mitsubishiown if your goals are 350-500 MAX, the VRSF kit will be MORE than enough to support those power levels and 30+ PSI with no problems if you have the other supporting mods.

HEY!!!!! I'm like 99.9999% sure that is my car ^^^^ Wes. LOL !!!!!Where did you find that picture at because it was the original owner that installed that GReddy/Trust FMIC and it has been good for about 10 years now but I am in need of a new intercooler now because that one gets heat...

I am now running probably 80% distilled water and the rest with Peak Radiator Cleaner and Flush and a little bit of coolant. Fan kicks on around ~205-210 degrees on coolant and seems to maintain it around a steady 200 when driving. Do these temps seem okay for the stock cooling system?

So I've become very familiar with Prestone full strength... I've gone through 2 full jugs on my system already. Reason being is I haven't had coolant or any other fluids in for about 3 years and the coolant was turning very nasty brown and murky right after I ran it.I have flushed the...

Thanks for the info. I was looking up some methods of burping the system and have a good idea of how to do it. I did not know about turning the heat up full however and thanks for the reminder of the reservoir tank.Any specific coolant you guys get from local auto shops that you have had good...

Ya, after more thought on it I think a regular coolant hose that fits that diameter will be fine it won't be too close to the block to overheat. And I think the regular hose clamps that have been holding the old one on the whole time would still be alright for the new hose if tightened enough...

I know this is over a year old, but I am looking for a replacement throttle body water feed hose. You can see where it comes off the thermostat in this picture it is letter C...and the other end connects to the fitting right under the throttle body... (the one that has the blue tape...

NIce welding guys!!I have been thinking about taking classes for this and other fabrication but I do not know where to start. Also, what kind of careers can this lead into if anyone knows and would they be good paying jobs?? Any input is appreciated !

I was thinking about removing the ABS anyways seeing as my abs sensor broke when removing the knuckle and its about $120 for a new one. What do you guys think?

Thanks for the reply Todd...I am still waiting on word from the seller as now someone is interested in the shell as a whole so hopefully I don't miss out on this deal!

Double check your plugs because I was having the same problem just as you described and it turned out to be bad plugs. It may just be a simple fix to your problem ... keep it simple start with the basics and go from there. There is always a logical explaination to the problem.

Thanks for all the good info guys I appreciate the input.I think I am going to jump on the deal seeing as my current stock rotors need to be replaced anyway. Also, both of my front calipers need a rebuild kit because the seals are bad and the ones I ordered off EBAY do not fit properly for...

Ya buddy dremel is good for small intricate work that doesn't require much cutting power but that's about it.What you need is to buy yourself a good ANGLE GRINDER and a metal CUT-OFF DISC from home dePOT or somewhere like that. They can be had for usually less than $50 and will work wonders...

Hmm, I figured they would be less rotating mass seeing as there looked like less surface area vs the OEM rotors but I may be wrong. I am rebuilding the stock single piston rear calipers on some brand new Power Slot slotted rotors and will probably run the same Hawk HP pads.

Nope, not desperate, I have just taken a few other parts off his hands so he is helping me out with the price. Plus the brakes are coming off the 95 GSX shop car he is parting out so he is slashing prices to make the stuff move quick. Lucky me huh? :thumbsup:Thanks for the link and quick...

A guy is selling his Wilwood front brake setup locally and is asking $350 but the rotors are bad and need to be replaced. The kit number from Wilwood is 140-8292 and he has the upgraded directionally vaned rotors but said the stock replacements will be around $80.00 a side.Does anyone...

Indeed bondo alone will look like crap and not to anything but be a quick band-aid fix. To go back on my post I recommend welding in the new sheetmetal like I mentioned before and only AFTER that would I recommend some bondo(only if needed obviously) to smoothen out the imperfections between...

NO sir no paint thinner it doesn't neutralize the rust like the other products. You can try to do a couple coats with that neutralizer stuff to spray on the wheel well and let it have some time to work at the rust. YOu will definitely want to spray a few coats of some good Rustoleum paint...

They are called rust inhibitors and are supposed to neutralize the rust to prevent from spreading and getting worse. One of the more popular ones people use here is called POR-15 also I have used Naval Jelly with some good results. YOu can get them from Autozone or Pepboys or Napa any place...

Do you know the part number to the replacement seals?? I bought some off ebay that were said to fit a 95 GSX 2 piston caliper but they seem to restrict the piston way too much.
