The cars look sick lowered but.... the ridiculous camber and the wheels sticking out make them look stupid. Its non-functional, doesn't look right, and just goes back to the ricer beginnings. Lowered on some nice wheels, that aren't hella-huge stick hella-out, and no camber is the way to go. I...

There isn't a tranny out there that has that crazy of a gear ratio, for DSM's, unless its custom. Same goes for the final drive, which is in the... I'll let you figure that out. Why is your clutch slipping? You say you can't build boost, then there's your reason, due to lowload, therefore no...

They were imported from here, to over there, so to them our cars are JDM, well technically USDM, but you what i mean.

Engage differently how? Harder, softer, earlier or later?

Your car is boosted, and it does not like timing, depending on boost level if you cant get above 15 degrees then dont be surprised. Most stock timing maps for 4g63's peak at low numbers, like 14-20, 1g's were tuned a little bit more aggresively than 2g's or evos and it really has little to do...

I dont like to bench race, but you'd be lucky to hit 350whp.

Full boltons+cams is about the only way a LS1 is gonna make 400rwhp.:thumb:BSFC is most always lower on a fuel injected engine than on a carbed engine. Fuel injected apples to apples will make more power than a carb.Sounds about right, buddys LS1 goat did the same with a VRX3. :thumb:

^^^ And do you trust who built the motor? (whoever built it)

Count me in, but ill say one thing. Its not our loss, its there's, DSM's have a bigger racing heritage than probably 90% of the cars on that game, to not include DSM's into that game is just stupid. Maybe now DSM's won't get riced as much and we'll have more cars to set more records in. I wonder...

I have the JAM springs/retainers. If i was to use any other brand it would only be supertech duals or the kigglys beehives. FP have great results but just the thought using the stock heavy retainers scares me. From what i have seen JAM aernt as famous in DSMs as they are in evos. Go on over to...

And thats the troof. :dsm::talon::laser::cool:

Hobbs, NM here.

Really? Your blaming this on crankwalk? Crankwalk is in other words a thrust bearing failure, how can a thrust bearing create all the symptons your saying? Its knocking, smoking, and you just did a timing job. Did you time it right? It sat for a long time, maybe you should bleed the lifters...

Read above in bold. :thumb:

Backpressure has a negative effect on ALL engines, its how the exhaust is designed that makes it or breaks it.

Well to answer your original question, 1000cc will be more than enough, for your goal of 450-500whp. Which of course will need other supporting mods.

Usually the idea is to fix a car by putting a better motor in the car gettin a LS engine , there is nothing wrong with the 4g63, there is nothing wrong with AWD. There is a reason they swap LS engines into RX-7, and thats because there engines are garbage, 4g63's aernt garbage. But if your gonna...

Don't matter if it fake, i dont care if you "think" or "know" that you "can" drive, accidents happen to anyone, thats why they call them accidents. The chances of anything serious happening go up if you are distracted by texting, calling someone, or whatever. What if your racing down the street...

This shows that people need to draw a line between having a lil fun and being stupid. I had ONE close count, that was all i needed, after that i have never sped in city limits, i never "street race", i actually get offended if im called a "street racer". The only time i play around is when im...

On 15lbs!! Thats great, just wait till you turn it up, 16g's turn from cute bunnys at 15psi to raging bears at 20+psi.

Link isnt your only option, check to see if you have a black plastic cased ecu. If you do then try http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/338754-first-flashed-dsm-ecu-98-99-flashing-faq.html. You really should also get some other supporting mods, since your on a budget you...

:tease:ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL

Get the Z.I just noticed the op has a 99. You should try a flash on the car before you sell it.

I would say thats a given as they are TURBO pistons. My 7-bolt didnt have a single bite or sting from detonation/knock/ping, and they went threw 30psi spikes on the daily, no meth, on 90 oct piss water.

:ohdamn:Even worse.ROFLROFL

However you want to look at it, they are there to bulletproof the 4g63. Remember that the engineers thought about what could happen(not always) and what would happen. Factory cast pistons could use them. Not a single LS engine have them, boosted modulars dont have them, modern hemis dont have...

About the only crappy about a 7-bolt is the puny rods. Whats crankwalk?Does anyone remember that stock (yes stock) 2g FWD with nitrous (and some fueling) that went 10's?

Good luck finding a program/software/chip to tune the SRT. You must have a GS to be thinking about trading over to a SRT, simple free mods can make yours faster than a "skittle". My stock 4700lb truck outruns em, and dont even get me started on what my 2g AWD with boltons will do to them. There...

There a tiny wee bit more aggressive.

Wow, 9's on the holset pretty soon then.

Its a 98 check for a black plastic ecu, if you do then you have the flashable ecu, you can use the ecuflash/evoscan and last ceddymods on it. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/347070-ceddymod-v1-ecuflash.htmlUnfortunately you cannot use DSMlink on the current ecu...

That much power would easily be handled by a Felpro composite 30 dollar head gasket, just throw some ARP's on it, copper spray is not needed.

Well it says it would work, but still, IMO a regular evo 3 16g would be better, the transtion from one outlet to a twin scroll outlet will create backpressure or turbulence. Also the fact that our manifold is still a single scroll makes me think that a evo 3 16g would perform better. Sell it on...

Sell it.

Not worth it, you would have to flip it as the turbo is inverted on the later evo's setup, the intake is on the other side and you would also need a twinscroll exhaust manifold. Too much work for not much outcome. IF the price is good then buy it and sell it on EVOm.net and buy a evo 3 16g.

:D This guy better playing...:tease: :cry:

About the only big diffrence is the clearance for the 11mm head bolts, the intake/exhaust ports are the same.

These people come and go, stupid ricers/wannabe mechanics give DSM's a bad name.

What is BG MOA?Best way to explain what it CAN do is to look at that video.

ECMTuning, Inc.If the car is tuned with an AFC, and it runs RIGHT, then you at least know that the injectors on it are 450cc-650cc.

Your good to go.

Rofl rofl rofl

Those codes are saying you have misfires in all cylinders, RECHECK timing.

Turn the rotors and throw some pads in it, might even want to flush the brake fluid, brake fluid attracts anything and if its been sitting its probably adding to the sensation your feeling. What do you mean by empty space? Do you mean like too long off a throw when you shift?

Um, or find a cheap 1g awd, throw a 16g on it, DSmap/Jackal, evo injectors/fuel pump, and an ebay/punishment intercooler, etc. You must have the roll cage and racing seats so just completely gut the car and i guarantee you will have a PERFORMING CAR. If your not under 3k then your doing...

Oh nevermind, disregard my above post.

Is this a factory turbo car, or the N/T with a turbo that your profile says?

Auto=more consistent and in the end will be faster, well after a certain point. Manual=FUNNER!!!

All oem cams have a letter stamped on them, OE 2g have a J stamped on them, im not sure which letter the G corresponds to, but it might be a 1g 6-bolt since its a 2.4, which isnt a stroker.

pee.
