^ ok? That rant doesn't help anybody. And it's also a dumb way to "get rid of" a parasitic draw.Ok since you have a draw of 1 amp you have a parasitic drain. While you have the DVOM hooked up the way you had it start pulling fuses. Once it drops really low (.1 - .5 about) you have your...
If I'm not mistaken you should have the a604 tranny that takes the square filter. which places tell's you there's 2 different kit's with 2 different filters?
So the next steps would be injectors, fuel pump, dsmlink, I would suggest 3 gauges (wideband o2, oil pressure and boost), intercooler with piping and then ofcourse a tune. This is ofcourse if you have checked/done all the maintenance for the car.
Ok so i recently got a new job (mechanic).
And its come time for me to make a decision of whether i should:1. Buy a bike and keep my eclipse for bad weather (cold, rain, and snow <--barely)2. Sell my eclipse and get a evo.I can easily afford either of them but i just love both evos...
Most of the stuff your doing doesn't really prepare you for free running.I'm not trying to bash on you i'm just trying to point you in the right direction.Parkour is pretty hard to do, and you could get hurt real bad, real fast.Just make sure to take it slow and don't rush into new...
I would buy a $100 gift card for some place else.
And i'm serious lol a place like autozone or something so i don't have to worry about getting money to do regular maintenance stuff.
How is the gopro? I've been hearing alot of mixed reviews about it, like oh the sound sucks or the fps is too low blah blah blah. But the promotonial videos on youtube look amazing but you can't know if they used some type of software to make it better.
Just wonder what cameras/camcorders you guys have and what accessories too. :hellyeah:Camera: Canon t1i w/ 18-55mm lensCamcorder: Samsung H300Accesories: t1i grip w/ 2 extra batteries, second car/wall battery charger, 2 8gb class 10 memory sticks and 2 16gb class 10 memory sticks and...
Well there's a difference when your comparing stock cars and a difference when comparing a stock car to heavily modified car.A 9 sec eclipse cant be compared to a stock z06.You wouldn't find it fair if you compared a 9 sec eclipse to a 6 sec dragster.Stock to stock? No you can't...
That page really made me laugh ROFLSounds/looks like florida is a amazing place to live in.I'm deff going to look forward to moving there in the near future.I also heard that the roads there are like glass (no potholes or anything) is that true?
Ok so I was thinking about moving to florida and getting a job there.
I'm probably going to be able to get a job at a dealership and most likely they can help/pay for my relocation.I was just wondering though, how is it to live in florida?
Yes i know about the beaches and the winter sports...
I own a 94 vr-4.
Is it a BIG PITA to work on? YES
Is it worth it? ABSOLUTELYThe car is so much fun to drive especially since it's has 4WS (Even though the back doesn't turn much, it will scare you when you first take a sharpish turn at 60)Bought mine from a dealer in NJ for 4k...
This is pretty vague.What do you want to do to it?Make it a drag car, road race car, lose some weight, or what?If it's none of those then you can just do the regular maintenance that you haven't done.Timing belt, transmission flush, etc etc etc.
If you want to do all the maintenance on your car then this is what you should buy:First and for most a haynes manual.Fuel filter
Spark plugs
Spark plug wires
PCV valve
Oil and oil filter
Coolant
Coolant hoses upper and lower
(If it's auto) Automatic tranny filter and atf fluid
(If it's...
Don't get me wrong i know there are a few gsx's out there for a very reasonable price.But some people just amaze me.And i know how to bargain :thumb: lol it's just that some people think that taking off 100 bucks is ALOT of money.It's like seriously man really?And when they pull...
Ok so I'm looking to buy another car, GSX preferably a 95.The thing I'm wondering is that some people are trying to sell they're car for upwards of 10k???!?!?!? WTFA few people wanna sell it for 5-7k.
"The car runs perfect except for this that and that and this and that, oh and it needs...
WTFWOW. Honestly even at 7k RPM i'd even be surprised if it starts to spool.:pBut then again you never know. Hope you have fun building that......beast of a thing :pGood luck :hellyeah:
Thanks alot for the advice and info guys.I'm gonna sign up for some auto-x asap and get some seat time.But 1 thing I really want to do is upgrade my front brakes to GSX brakes with atleast stock rotors.The brakes on my GS (and every other n/t) are horrible and I wouldn't feel that...
So would you guys think it's better off to just try out auto-x so i can get the feel for it and if i would want to get serious buy another car?Because that is starting to seem like the better option.
I currently have 18" Motegi ff7's on the car wrapped in all season sumitomo tires.The only problem i have with the rims is that they are REALLY heavy.So i was thinking about getting another set of rims (later on) and wrapping them with a nice sticky tire and use the ones on the car now...
First things first.Drain some of the tranny fluid and refill to the proper level.Having to much tranny fluid is a bad thing. It causes foaming inside the transmission.About it going into neutral, If i'm not mistaken that could be a bad band in the transmission.Or possibly the...
Since your new to cars.How does my car work?This is not specific to dsm's but it will give you ALOT of information on what's what, what does it do, why does it do it and how does it do it.
Sorry for being vague, I have little to no auto-x experience.The closest thing to auto-xing i have done is go-karts in europe (these things were fast and i spun out a couple times taking turns too fast :coy:)I obviously know that go-karting can't really be compared all that much to full size...
Ok so as the title says i need advice on auto-x.I wanna use the car i currently have, my 99 GSI know exactly what i wanna do for suspension and brakes.But my question is, how much hp would i need?Please don't tell me to sell my GS and buy a GS-T or GSX
I've tried selling my car...
Thanks alot for the info guys.One more question.Where did you guys (if you did) get the adapters for bushings, bearings, gears and ball joints?Harbor freight seems to only have the ones that are used by hand tools.
I was just wondering if anyone has bought these things from harbor freight and had experience with them.20 Ton Shop PressVertical Air Compressor - 2.5 HP, 21 Gallon, 120 Volt, 125 PSII wouldn't use these things on a daily basis.
They would be put in my garage.
The press i would use...
I'm on the same boat that you were on when you were a kid.
I love reptiles especially snakes but my mom would probably have a heart attack.The annoying thing is i have a 55 gallon tank from a previous aquarium i had and that would be perfect for a python (until he gets bigger :D) but i...
My friends car was in storage and one day we went to go get her.
He gets in and starts her up and surprisingly it started after 2 or 3 cranks.
The car idled for about 2 3 mins then died.Long story short when we took off the exhaust after checking out alot of other stuff some rat decided...
Anyone who doesn't believe in aliens is pretty close minded if you ask me.
No offense to anyone or anybody you know.Do i believe in aliens? absolutely
Would i want them coming here? honestly no
Why? If we found another planet that had a species that kills, rapes, mutilates, and does...
