    9!'clipseDOHC's 1g DSM build

    Yesterday I tried to work on the shifter. It was super sloppy and there was a ton of play all over the place. I tried to swap in my 91 shifter (trans is a 90) and 91 cable mount but even after adjusting the cables as far as they would go I could only get into 1st, 3rd, and 5th. I couldn’t get...

    9!'clipseDOHC's 1g DSM build

    Yes, I will definitely be replacing the carrier bearings next but I think that has more to do with the clunking than the shifting. All motor mounts are Prothane but I will be double checking them too. Im hoping the popping of gear is just a shifter cable adjustment issue. I’ll be looking into...

    9!'clipseDOHC's 1g DSM build

    We made it back home safe and sound after an awesome road trip! I'm super impressed with the car but driving 1,800 miles over 4 days is bound to reveal a few minor issues. I'm going to document them here so I can start working towards fixing them.Horn doesn't work. Luckily we didn't need it...

    A Hurricane & 2,000 Miles In A DSM

    I just finished a 1,800 mile road trip in my 1G from Texas to the Southern California Coast and ran across your road trip thread. Thanks for documenting it and sharing it here. Hopefully our successful trips will inspire more people to explore a little further from their homes. I love the...

    1,800+ mile Road Trip to the Pacific Coast in a 1G!

    On day one driving across western Arizona I had the check engine light come on a couple of times for what I presume was coolant temps. However the gauge only moved up a barely imperceivable amount. I’m not sure if the gauge is malfunctioning and not reading higher or if the warning light sensor...

    1,800+ mile Road Trip to the Pacific Coast in a 1G!

    We didn’t take many pictures today, it was just an 8 hour drive on I-8 and I-10 from Yuma across the southwest states of Arizona, New Mexico, and back into Texas! Once again, the DSM did amazing! We have a few little things we want to work on to make it better for future trips but overall I’m...

    1,800+ mile Road Trip to the Pacific Coast in a 1G!

    I’m just wondering why I waited so long to do something like this in this car! I’ve ridden my Harley across the country several times, taken the Humvee all over the southwest and Rocky Mountains, drove my old Evo VIII to Vegas and back, and taken a bunch of cross-country trips in our Sequoia...

    We are having a blast for sure! It’s hard to believe I’ve had this car for so long and this is the first time I’m taking it on a long trip like this. It’s doing awesome, pretty comfy for two, fun to drive, and getting great mileage!

    1,800+ mile Road Trip to the Pacific Coast in a 1G!

    This morning we left El Segundo and headed south on the Pacific Coast Highway. Just south of LA we stopped at Laguna Beach and Victoria Beach. It was still pretty windy in the morning but the sun was shining and we had fun getting our legs wet in the Ocean.After lunch we continued south to...

    1,800+ mile Road Trip to the Pacific Coast in a 1G!

    Whoo! We crammed a lot into a single day!We woke up early and broke down camp. I cleaned all the bugs off the front bumper, checked the oil and coolant, and then we hit the road! We had a roughly 2 hour drive to our first stops in LA and it rained most of the way there. You might recognize a...

    1,800+ mile Road Trip to the Pacific Coast in a 1G!

    It was a great first day! Thank you very much!No one was more surprised than me! The next two days have a lot less miles as we enjoy the SoCal sights and make our way down the coast and then another long drive back to Texas. Hopefully the DSM will keep it all together!
