Hey guys, I am just now getting back into the DSM game after about 5 years. Long story short, I have a 2g, previous owner kinda did a hack job with splicing grounds and running incorrect gauge wire to everything and now I am trying to rewire everything and clean everything up. Now I need some...
Did you ever get this resolved? I am having the exact same problems with my car. I installed a motor with a SMIM and I put on a regular hose and then replaced with with the OE with the check valve and still no dice.
Ok well I was looking at everyones way of doing a battery relocation and I had read some people that had taken the easy way of just grounding the negative at the engine bay and running a positive wire all the way to the back and just running it to the positive on the battery and running a...
Unfortunatly for now I am running the dsm flanged housing with the hx35. I was a dumbas$ and didn't look into people using the stock 12cm housings and getting fantastic spool with them!
Nice that was exactly what I wanted to hear! I am running an hx35 also and will be shooting for 400hp! Now did you compare the ERL with the previous manifold that you had installed? If so what were the differences?
I'm not sure how this is even relevant to the thread since his mod list in his profile states that he has ARP studs and a cometic HG. What are you trying to prove?Anyways, I am in the market also for exhaust manifold and I contacted both erl and RedJack Racing. Which would you guys choose...
Just got my hands on another 2g tps sensor. I put it on and still the same thing!Does it matter that I have my TPS facing downward and to the left instead of upward and to the right? I can't put it upwards and to the right because it hits my SMIM.
Alright I will try it again with the same tps and see if anything changes but that is as close as I could get it. I also have a few tps sensors laying around so I will give them a try also. ThanksEdit just checked and out of the 7 tps I have laying around, they are all 1g tps sensors! Just...
Well I am doing that final check like you told me to make sure that my ips is working and for some reason it is not. Both with the feeler guage in and out I have no continuity.
Alright well I did it over again and now I got it to where I was seeing .869 ohms from pins 2&4 but right when I took out the feeler gauge to see if I had continuity at pins 3&4, I still did not.So then I moved the throttle body control arm (don't really know the name off the top of my head)...
Oh ok gotcha! Now I got it all setup but I have one last question. I got it all down to where I have no continuity in pins 3&4 and .9 ohms in pins 2&4 but when I moved onto the 7th step that you included, am I testing pins 3&4 without the feeler guage? I tried with and without and both times I...
Alright well I finally got to take the car out today for a spin for the first time ever and I was going to start doing my basic cruise tuning with link and the car is having some trouble staying running. I can get the car to idle between 950-1100 rpms without the clutch engaged but once I engage...
Alright great. Now I just have to deal with the problem of the blades on the alt hitting the tensioner! Did you have this problem also? I flipped it over so the flat side of the tensioner was down but the blades still hit it.
I've got a dumb question but I have to ask.... Where does that single wire on a terminal go to? Like there is one single wire on a terminal and then there is a double white wire that goes to a terminal. Do they go in the same place on the alternator because they were at different places on the...
Hey is there any way that we can get a diagram of how to wire things up for a 2g? I read over everything and I am not very confident with my wiring and don't feel like burning anything up.
FINALLY!!! :hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah:Car is fixed! I am so relieved that I finally found the problem! After searching for days and days I found it! It turned out that when I had wired in my aem wideband, I spliced the 76 input instead of the 75th! Well the 76th input was for the front o2...
But it is not only my idle... well atleast I don't think it is. My wideband reads basically fully lean and my idle surge wouldn't explain my crazy o2 sensor reading.EDIT ahh just read some of the link. so you are saying my idle is so sparatic because of my lean a/f ratio? I guess that makes...
Alright so I have been having this problem after I installed my 1g 7 bolt into my 97 gsx. I start up the car and it idles very rough to the point where I have to push on the gas very slightly to keep the car running. I did a boost leak test and my throttle body had leaky shaft seals so I...
Eh it was an impulse buy when I bought the cams :D. I never even thought about knowing all the specs of the cams, all I was reading was 274's and that had me sold! :ohdamn: But I am looking into some fp 4r cams in the near future :sneaky:
Defently not BC, they are garbage. But I have some guy selling me brand new kiggly springs and titanium retainers with base washers for 350. I am very tempted but I do not need them for my 274's?
I was looking into springs and retainers as I am wanting to rev out a bit further now that I have my 274 cams and my hx35 but I am ripped between Crower or Manley? Which is better? Any other recomendations? I am not looking to spend over 300 bucks for springs and retainers either. What do you...
Well I guess I am asking in general since I still do not know much about what what can be done to a head and why I would want it done. I mean I don't really want to spend 400+ bucks on port work if it isn't going to be very noticable.
Alright well I am trying to push my stock rebuilt 1g 7 bolt close to the limits and aiming for 425-450hp and I am wanting to possibly get some head work done. I have been reading a ton of different threads stating on how it kills smaller turbo's top-end and how porting doesn't neccessarily mean...
Alright so I am on the home stretch of getting my car fully running and I run into this problem with my axle bracket. Basically the bracket holes are smaller than the holes that they line up with on the block. I'm thinking that it is because I have a 1g 7 bolt engine in it out of a 93 so the...
Bringing this back from the dead. Basically I have the same Megan catch can and I have a non recir. fp intake pipe and no I do not want to drill and tap a barb fitting on it. So I can run the side of the valve cover to the top of the catch can and the top pcv valve to the top of the catch can...
Ya I have heard that the Apexi doesn't have the same throaty sound that the thermal R&D has so I think I might just wait. I was watching some youtube videos of the apexi and they didn't sound very good at all. Now I know that there is some distortion and everything but they still sounded too...
Alright well I am torn right now on which to buy. I already had a thermal R&d on my gst and LOVED how it sounded. Very clean deep tone to it but now the problem is I can't seem to get my hands on a used one for my 2g awd. There is some guy that emailed me selling a full Apexi n1 for a fairly...
UPDATE!!!!! JUST FOUND THE PROBLEM!!!! I'm soooo happy right now! lol Alright here is how I found it. I was doing a BLT just for the hell of it and I fixed my leak at the throttle body and I go to put the intake pipe back on when I hear something make a weird noise by the MAF. I instantly knew...
Update on what the car has been doing recently. Basically the car runs perfectly fine and pulls hard for 3 to 4 pulls but then after that it just spontaneously starts sputtering and running very rich when just cruising. I thought I might have blown a coupler off but no, no blown couplers and no...
Sorry I really did look through a ton of posts though. But I have no clue how to put up a csv. attachment and the google spreadsheet isn't opening up my newest log.I just went to go make another log and for some reason I still am seeing no knock sum even though I changed it to 3E. Also my...
How do I add a new log? I have a new one I took today but I forgot to log the load but I logged the rpms this time lol. Also how do I change the knock requestid and what do I change it to?
The idle does come down with moving the biss screw but I can turn the biss screw in pretty far in and the closest I get is like 1500rpms. I have my tps set at like .915ohms.Oh and I have a 1g 7 bolt :). That is why I am all messed up!
