Ordered without even blinking, thank you @Mach V Dan !

This is the Build Thread for 97 gsx do-all build. Reply below.

I would be interested in a 2g awd rear bar!

My connection problem ended up being my cable. It worked fine for a long time then after I changed my headgasket it didn't work. I was freaking out. Cables seem to be a pretty common problem. Also make sure all of your diagnostic port's pins are locked in. Take a pair of needle nosed pliers, and...

I've read that it can be caused by a bad iac. I replaced mine with a tested good one and it still happens. I've looked at my ecu and I can't see any visible damage. I'll check my isc position on link when I get home. And my tb coolant lines are looped so I'm not sure how that effects the fiav...

Any luck finding out what was wrong? I've been having this exact problem for awhile. If I give it gas for about a minute or so it will hold an idle and be fine. Just curous if you found a remedy yet.

Then you put a water temp gauge down there.. I like to watch my gauge as well, so I probably shouldn't have said boost gauge in my initial post but it was the first thing to come to mind.

Well, you can put a temp gauge or other gauge that doesn't need too much monitoring down there lol. Its not too much different than looking down at your radio and driving..

I like the cigarette lighter spot in second gens. When I get mine thats where my boost gauge is going.

With a bad o2 sensor the ecu will lock itself in open loop mode creating a very rich mixture to prevent damage to the motor. So order and install the new o2 first, because it says it's bad, and go from there. I had a similar issue and it solved it for me. So start there and see what you're left...

I borrowed an o2 sensor from a buddy of mine, until mine gets here on Saturday, and hooked it back up to the way I had it. It works so.. if it ain't broke don't fix it applies here. My car is in closed loop again but my wide-band keeps giving me 17:1 and up to --- so I've got a hunch my sensor...

the 1g's don't have a rear o2.. and I have the front o2 wire tapped. I want to say my problem might be because I didn't cut and butt my wideband and ecu together, I stripped the wire and tapped it that way. so it still runs to the front o2 female plug in the engine bay (which has nothing plugged...

I read in a different thread to set it to the p04 setting.. and here is a log. and i have the switchover point set at 2.33

If I'm not mistaken, shouldn't the o2 voltage should still cycle up and down even if the calibration is off? I will post a log when I get home.. and I had to order a new NBo2 so it will be here Saturday. I will most likely set it back up to how I had it before, for the simple fact that it works...

Would it not being calibrated cause it to be stuck in open loop mode and not cycling the wideband?

My front o2 took a dump the other day, so I figured now is as good of time as any to start logging my WB. So I took out the old sensor, and replaced it with my AEM WB that was previously in a "rear o2" bung that was welded in my exhaust. I switched the WB to the P04 output, and tapped my white...

All bickering aside, OP I love the way your car sits/looks. Exactly the look I would want on my 2g. IMO these cars look amazing with a really low stance and flush fitment and the Saleen wheels make it that much better! So, kudos to you! And I will be saving those pictures and adding them to my...

Connect the boost leak tester up to the turbo inlet(where the filter goes) And it'll pressurize the whole system.

It also might be a good idea to check your spark plugs gap. You might be experiencing spark blowout. I'd do a boost leak test first though.

When I installed my AEM WB, mine would read 10.0 at all times. It was running rich at the time, but that number wouldn't fluctuate at all.. So, we took the sensor out of the bung, and turned the key on the on position for a few seconds until it leaned out. I had the car on (not started) for...

I bought my car with some problems too. And I've been where you are. It's all about whether you think it's worth it or not. My car is a wiring nightmare and it doesn't even have a cross member or front motor mount. But when you buy a car your picking up where someone left off. And working on...

I too would go with ARP bolts.

I really hope I didnt mess up by getting this car... It's a six bolt swap and the random purple wires is the radiator fan relay that he ran wires out of because they're slim fans. so thats just kind of chillin' because I ran them to a dedicated switch. There is some things everywhere and I'm...

Thanks for the quick replies guys, I just wanted some second opinions before I started pulling things and routing them differently. I guess the Speed Density thing eliminates the need for a maf through the use of DSM/ECM link so thats why thats there, but where should I branch that to/or give it...

Hey guys, I just picked up my first turbo'd dsm on monday. woot woot. The problem is that it was pre modded and swapped so things are in weird places and I'm not sure whats where exactly. My question for you is are there too many T's running off of the same vacuum line? My buddy claims that it...

It doesnt get offended when I stare at its headlights.

Graduating the 5th. pretty pumped. not sure what im doin afterwards though.. working most likely, then trying to figure out what i want to go to school for..

yeah, it seems like none of the parts stores around my area carry turn signal fluid... everywhere I call looking for it just disconnects. A simple "no" would do just fine..

I love silver 2g's on black wheels. and that lip... sexay.

Drove home from Chicago, about an hour drive, with NO coolant. It was bone dry and the temp gauge would start climbing any time we were in traffic and not getting enough air flow, which is pretty easy to do in chicago.. and then 2 weeks after I got it, the passenger side lower ball joint blew...

Props on the drawing :thumb: I would definately buy that if it was on a shirt. and those shirts in the OP are definately awsome. I'm digging the 2g one.

8 days left until graduation, prom tomorrow.. Hopefully getting a boosted DSM over summer :D

The original post says "IDEA" so I doubt this is the finished product.. I'm not sure why people are so quick to rag on the mock up..

I think it looks good just like that. haha. 100% custom. Good idea though.

Currently on my first: 99 GS N/T, hoping to get my first turbo'd one here soon :D

I think... I'm in love.. with gofer's car.

High rise has my vote. :thumb:
