Didn't see a post where anyone did a short firewall to throttle body cable for a 2g so i decided to post up a pic of my modified cable i did yesterday afternoon.Still missing the bracket on the cable so i can bolt it down to the manifold but it is working great.All that was needed to be...
Well i'm back in the game, after some much needed relax time, i am more confident than ever to finally come back and stay for a very good while in the DSM game and not give up.Some of you may know me, and some have asked when i was going back, well here i am. And this time i finally went...
Hello all. Been a while i haven't been in the DSM game like before, might be a little rusty so i would appreciate any help and feedback anyone gives me.Planning to build a 6bolt block/7bolt head combo for next year to swap it into a 2g.I picked up a 2g head for $70. Did a little cleaning to...
Hey guys how's it going ? Been working on my friends talon lately, and yesterday i had another friend install a new clutch on it.Problem is, before and even still after the new clutch, after you step on it WOT and shift the pedal sticks to the floor, in turn not allowing you to get in gear...
Well this is pretty much my 5th DSM. It's a 97 GST, 5-speed. Picked it up as seen with rims and tranny for $500. Missing seats and motor.
Took a year break from the DSM scene just to clear up my head and i feel confident enough now to keep it for a very very long time, especially since it was...
I just recently bought a 2g motor from a friend and i'm looking to rebuild it.
My goal is to prep it for around 500.Now the motor did crankwalk, it obviously has play.
I'm kind of rusty so i may be making some noob questions, lol.
All i would need to do is get new main and thrust bearings to...
Well after devoting my heart and effort on my car, due to the bad economic times and bad habit of always feeling the need to buy parts for the car, it wasn't working out for me, not to mention gas prices. I just couldn't keep up to par with it.
Sold it last night to a buddy of mine. Hopefully...
Here is the rundown on my issue :* Car has a complete stock fuel system *
My car is smoking black at idle and anytime i rev it too.I have swapped stock injectors with another known good set of stock injectors and nothing changed. Today i went to a junkyard and bought a resistor pack off...
Just had a thought, currently i'm in the process of replacing my top and bottom injector o-rings cause i have a leak in one of them.This made me think, when we have a boost leak through the bottom injector ring, since fuel does go through that seal too, wouldn't we also be leaking fuel if...
Went today to get my CEL checked out and got this code, p0203, injector 3 circuit malfunction.
I have visually checked the connectors and wires for any damage but they have nothing, all injectors plugs and wiring look fine.
I have read that a bad resistor pack can cause this to happen, is this...
My front and rear wipers are not working, i have all new fuses on both inside and outside fuse boxes and still nothing.
What do you guys think it could be ?
I have tried a different rear wiper switch and nothing, but it's weird how both front and rear coicidentially don't work, any ideas ?
Just as the title states. I am looking forward to replacing my gaskets on my turbo and was wondering if would be able to use a 7cm stainless steel gasket on the 14b/2g mani without any problems ? Or will i have to port ?
I also want to eliminate the seal ring as well, i re-used it cause i'm...
Before i go to my girl's house i wanted to jump on here real quick and wish everyone on tuners a happy new years and may everyone's wishes, dreams, projects, builds, and everything else come through !God bless you all and have a safe and happy new years ! :rocks:
I have a 14b on my car. Since i bought my car back in may, it came with no exhaust system, so i just recently ordered a 3" downpipe, and with the income tax money i'm doing the rest of the 3" custom exhaust, but now i'm stumped on the o2 housing.I am stuck between keeping the stock one and...
I was talking with friends today that will be going dsmlink soon and they said that with link it isn't necessary to have a for as link can now take care of that etc. Is this true ? Any enlightenment and 2 cents will be appreciated.
I am stumped and undecided wether to go with the gm maf or stock 2g maf, i have both with me, but to run the gm maf i still need to get me the translator and the 2g maf is ready to go.
In the end i will be going ecmlink, and a 2g maf is more than enough for my goal of 400, not to mention easier...
I was cleaning up underneath behind the lower driver side panel and i found a bunch of wires all over the place.
Some i reconnected back as per oem, and some i don't seem to figure what they're there for or if it even comes oem like that ?I am including a pic, do any of you know where the 2...
I am at work and i was thinking about going to moroso after i take out my car and getting a baseline number next month and it came to mind to see if maybe a few miami dsm'ers would like to come along and we all try a pass or so ?Just testing the waters on this idea, any opinions ...
Was browsing on ebay and found this seller selling lots of hks bov for $95 shipped.
They are a top rated seller and i was wondering if it was legit ?
Bov and packaging as shown on picture look legit, what do you guys think ?
They also say they buy in bulk. I'd never thought hks bov would...
I saw this on ebay and i'm assuming this cable only works if you have dsmlink to be able to run the cable from the gm maf straight to the stock plug, or is this a new cable that doesn't require a translator ?MAF TRANSLATOR GEN 2 MAF ADAPTER ECLIPSE 2G DSM 3000GT: eBay Motors (item...
Hey all i am happy to announce i am now officially an iphone 4 user ! WoooootI need everyone who has an iphone to let me know what top apps you guys would recommend me to get.

I'm at loss, yesterday i connected the obd2 scanner and i got a p0202 code, reconnected the obd2 scanner today and got a p0201, how the hell would all the sudden the injector 2 circuit would go from being faulty, to no more injector but now instead injector 1 ?
I'm going to turn on and off the...
Here is a pic i took this morning.The connector appears to be bridged, and i don't like to run "band-aid" fixes on my car, i like it oem functional, so i was wondering if the coolant temp sensor needs to replaced and that that's why the previous owner bridged the connector and left it...
This is for a friend of mine.
She recently bought a 95 gst, oddly enough my previous gst lol, and the motor on it went, so we had a buddy of ours swap over a jdm 7 bolt motor into it yesterday.
Motor runs nice and smooth, swap was done right.
Problem all started when we first cranked it it...
Just like the title states. The car will be daily driven and on weekends it will see action.
I had my thoughts on a act 2100 with sprung 6 puck, not sure if it'll hold up ?
Any suggestions/advice ?
Just as the title states.
I'm looking to get me a gauge pod, but undecided wether to now go with the tripple pillar one or the double cluster piece.
I assume running the stock oil pressure gauge should be fine, so i was thinking just a pod for wideband and boost, and on the location to put...
Last night my car was fine and started right up with no problems.
I was reading up on probable causes and came up with the 3 most probable reasons based on what i know and checked is fine on my car.
1 - spark plugs
2 - bad fuel pump
3 - ecuMy car inside doesn't smell bad at all...
Couldn't find the answer to my question so i will ask here.
Next year i am looking forward to finish up my fuel system minus the tuning device, due to money issues i will have to save up a little extra and buy it on the side a couple months later.
My question is, if i were to not only install...
Just wondering since i will soon be freshening up my engine bay and mods come next year and wanted to change a few parts, sensors and what not, and wanted to hear some opinions.I was looking into 2 options, either keeping my stock o2 housing and just getting a new o2 sensor on it or getting...
I am looking come next year with income taxes to upgrade my drivetrain parts as well as my fuel system.
I am set on my clutch kit being of an act2100 but my concern was the flywheel, will a fidanza flywheel be ok ? My car is my daily driver, and i read the fidanza is only 8 lbs. Is this too...
Ok so chrispy and i had a talk about the DSM meets and from now we will be hosting the meets as we always had at Tropical Park and the meet will start like always at 12:00pm.
We feel if we keep the meet at Tropical we will have better turnouts and not discourage the other miami dsm'ers to make...
Well i was looking up manifolds on several sites and all them seem to be quite on the high side, so i had a thought about buying an ebay mani and having it slapped on with my 16g.
I had in mind purchasing one of these t3/t4 style manifolds :and having the t3/t4 flange taken off and a dsm...
I'm currently running the evo3 16g, purchased about 4 months ago, and it's been running great, but then i got to thinking, if i'm going to be upgrading my fuel system and putting money towards upgrading all other misc. parts, i might as well put it to a good cause, and therefore i have decided...
Unfortunately, yesterday in the afternoon my friend was going home from soccer practice, he said he didn't know what happened to him, that all the sudden he fainted out of nowhere and according to the witness driver in the back, the car was slowly swerving to the right until it eventually ended...
Yes, i know what you're thinking, another freakin' wheel thread...
Lol i know but i'm planning ahead and wanted to know which of the 2 rims you guys would rather choose and why ?
I am looking for a 17x8 wheel in size for either of the 2, and the enkei in silver and 5zigen in bronze.
I went under my battery today to look over to see if i had any leaking vac lines and surely there were 2 unplugged.
I would appreciate if from the pic anyone can tell if the vac lines look properly in place ?
The red arrow shows the hose that goes from the little can-like looking thing to the...
Sorry guys i'm sort of in a rush and i need to purchase a coupler asap.
I remember my old coupler that i used for my t25 worked for my 16g, i forgot the coupler size though, will a 2" or 2-1/4" coupler work ? Which of the 2 is the best fit ?
And the intake pipes from ebay are what size ? For...
I have been meaning to pull these out from behind my head, intake mani area and saw they are 2 connectors bolted onto a bracket with 2 hols to be bolted onto something but where exactly do these go ? And what are their purpsose ?
The wiring seems to be interconnected with the wiring close to...
I'm going gm maf in the coming weeks and plan on custom-making a stainless steel intake pipe to be able to weld on a stainless steel nipple to recirculate my vc breather hose, but as for the other hose, the one that comes from the charcoal canister to the intake, what does that hose's purpose do...

After getting tired of my crappy junkyard 2gb headlights, and the fact the adjustment was bad on them as well (had to use high beams to see at night), i decided it was time to upgrade.
I went on ebay and found a shop near me who sold headlights for cheap.
Scored me the pair of 2gb headlights...
I am making this new thread for a friend of mine to help him out.My friend's car is a 98 gst spyder auto.
He is having a little msoking problem. About a month or so ago he had the car taken to a shop where they changed his lifters to revised ones, along with that they were also going to...
Well after seeing how my silver rims had bad paint fade, and on top of that it was really easy to see dirt getting on it in a matter of days, i decided to paint them black and see how it would look.
The dirt is there but it's now harder to see so that's good, but not sure if i like them more...
I got a good deal on a used 3" gm maf and wanted to know, before i get the maf-t, the white wire that is supposed to be tapped in on the cas for the rpm signal, where would i go about tapping that wire in on my 2g ? I have my cas on the other side of the motor and it's not visible from my p.o.v...
I searched but couldn't find an answer to my problem.
The issue i am having is that 2 days ago at night, my battery and brake lights turned on, and this usually means a bad alternator, but my car seems to drive fine with no dimming of lights or any of the sort, starts up fine and all. I...
