I'm about to order a set of these for my wife's 2gb eclipse. I'll test fit them to my 2gb Talon bumper first to see if they work as is. If they do, I'll snag a 2nd set so I don't have to remove the high beam on the passenger headlight for a ram intake, nice product.

So you are using a hardly accurate VD to compare a car that has an efficient setup, to one that has mismatched parts?I can't be the only one that finds this comparison absolutely useless.

The seats look really good, nice alternative to expensive race seats. They are definitely comfortable.

Law for necro threads. I almost thought Defiant had returned!

Super happy to see you back Glenn, one of the few people on the site I'd trust knowledge from without a second thought. It's good to hear things are going better. If you find yourself in a situation like that again in the PNW, I'm sure there would be an open door for a DSM'r like yourself.

I use parts store axles, which ever one has a lifetime warranty. Oreilly's have been decent, and a lifetime warranty for like $50 an axle up front.

Turn off fuel cut on deceleration, maybe get you closer to the skittle sound. Waste of fuel though IMO, hearing the turbo spool over a nice quiet exhaust is much better.

The length on the bolt sleeve for the trans mount is too long to slide into the bracket. The sleeve from the stock one is too small around to fill the prothane mount, but naturally the length fine. Is there any reason I just can't cut the sleeve down to the proper length? The inside diameters...

I don't mind the gap. I know there were logs posted with 2ga/b headlight difference, and the coolant temps were quite a bit lower with the gap.

I've only seen it on Evos, sub'd for pictures.

Recommending DSMGraveyard should get people an automatic red chicklet lol. OP, please look up the vendor reviews of DSMGraveyard before ever ordering anything from them.

This is about all I was able to find. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/electrical-tech/474333-2g-interior-fuse-block-plugs-different-harness-issues.html

As long as it works... I like this a bit better for the 2ga bumper.

How much did you pay for that?

Has anyone used a 2g 5 speed AWD starter on an auto AWD 2g? As far as I know, the only difference is the gear length. Would there be any issues with the extended gear, has anyone done this?
