Over a year actually. It's really not as bad as it seems, its diverted far enough out the engine bay to not really affect anything as far as I can tell. I forgot to mention another downside, my trans and some of the oil pan are really dirty from the exhaust being that close. Alternator and...

So there's plenty of information on driving with open downpipe and it looks overall safe. But what about no downpipe? With the exhaust starting at o2 housing, is it ok to daily drive it? My main concern is the o2 sensor being fairly exposed to open air killing it prematurely.I drove around...

Alright the backstory is i've had this electrical issue with my car for about 2 years. I have voltmeter and I average about 11.8-12.8 voltage at all times daily driving. This is abnormal I know and I believe the issue is with my alternator fuse/fusebox and its wiring. (Although it could more...

Did method in post 3 and seaform through my TB (Sucked it through the BOV line) afterwards. Pinpointed a few of my leaks, worked great.

So i've read/heard things such as running seaform through the engine and using a flame along the exhaust to find leaks but i'm concerned about accuracy, especially in finding exhaust manifold leaks and 02 housing leaks.Not to mention i can't pass smog because of the leaks i also have some...

Mmmm I see. Miller doesn't hack up there harnesses so no go there. Mitsubishi Graveyard hasn't really replied back. Yea I noticed that Snowboarder but it looks like they have CPS connector for sale as one piece.

Looking for a 97 Cam Positioning Sensor connector, 1 of the wires (red one) ripped out at the plug in my old one. Local junkyards don't have any turbo eclipse to clip 1 off. I recall a website that had the connectors for sale but can't remember the name. Anyone know of a reputable vendor/website...

Link to page?

Hmm yea i've went to certifits website and the bumper isn't listed as if they dont stock it. I suppose I need to give um a call see whats up.Local Junkyard wants 130 for a bumper.

Ebay has them priced for about $75 shipped now. Is this about the best price out there for 2gb front bumpers now? Or are there any other outlets? I remember hearing about them going for about $40-$50.Thanks

If you didn't find a good website hes a excellent place for buying stock paint.Automotivetouchup.com Touch Up Paint, Aerosol Spray Paint and Touchup Paint Accessories | AutomotiveTouchup | 888-710-5192

Great info thanks fellas.

My drivers side handle is broken off (Have the handle) and my pass side handle is doesnt open the door when unlocked.Will the kit here fix both handles? 2G Eclipse, 2G Talon, Avenger, Sebring Door Handle Repair KitIt looks like the kit above is a reinforce kit rather then a broken handle...

I see. Yea I mean its most likely some nasty leak somewhere causing it. You installed new shaft seals right? If not that could be a pretty nasty leak right there assuming they aren't changed. I would do a real solid BLT before shelling out for another TB just to make sure the system is sealed...

Thats odd. My Idle was horrible after my failed attempt to turn the dial all the way in.Video: FIAV Revenge - YouTubeI installed this plate here and my idle has been great sinceLevel Zero MotorsportsMy only guess is you might have a vacuum leak somewhere (run a BLT) or the FIAV...

Assuming your running a stockish turbo (t25, 14b) just run stock boost and do the motoman breakin. I also did that method and i've got about 3k miles on it 160 compression across the board.

So to get it straight you installed a fiav block and your still getting surge? Was there any point where the car idled ok?

It doesnt move worth a damn. Two jacks doesnt work its still too far to the right. Im done with this shit im getting a hoist. I cant believe i have to resort to a engine hoist for this though wtf.Heres some pictures like i've said all mounts are loose to the point the nut bolts are finger...

Ah thanks for the post buddy, was very helpful keep at it.Multiple jacks, ok let me grab a couple more and give it a shot

Tried that with 3 ppl. Doesnt move enough. There has to be something im missing. Something I can loosen a ton to make this as simple as ppl make it seem. I really dont get how the hell this could be more difficult then dropping the trans for a clutch job or changing and timing a t-belt. Its...

So I still can;t get the mount to line up. I need the motor to slide some to the left towards the passenger side. Can someone give me a step by step on what to loosen and how far to loosen to get the motor to slide some? Im completely lost here been at this for days, not trying to have my motor...

Is there a trick/easier way to get it to line up?I cant get the long bolt to line up to thread in the hole behind the motor mount on the chassis. I have a jack on the oil pan varying up and down to get it to line up but it seems i need the motor to move a little bit to the left to get the...

If its the oil shield i think your talking about it should sit in flush in the housing and a snap ring should go ontop of it. If its the other shield that goes on the hotside behind the turbine wheel on the hotside then yes it'll be loose.Edit: added pictures. Picture 1, the shield that goes...

Go ahead and search g4cs and they'll will be plently of threads detailing the pros and cons of swapping to a 6 bolt 2.4 from a 2.0.

Ok the issue i believe is my turbine wheel might be gone. The previous owner had a longer compressor seal coller installed which did not seal the oil shield from air. I just put in the correct shorter collar that seals off the oil shield from air and now when i tighten down the wheel it tightens...

Got it, the lube did the trick. I had it on the pin but it wouldnt actually SEAT for shit. I even took a mallet and tried to hammer it down and it wouldnt seat. Of course some lube and pressing it down did the trick. Thanks for replying quickly fellas.

So just ordered a td05 rebuild kit from tradergreg to rebuild my 14b.Rebuild went smooth except when i put the circler red gasket on the center housing and put the compressor cover on it, it doesnt seat right and i can spin the compressor cover.Im sure with it spinning like that its not...

Gogo Evoscan. Great product and logs fast on 97-99 ecus

It seems like its had a lot of sales, just wanted to get some feedback on it as I couldn't find a prior thread.

1997 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE Oxygen Sensor1st o2 sensor there.Anyone ever used/bought one? Seems like a steal at $26 shipped but how do they hold up? Anyone running 1?

I just followed Jusmx141's guide here to the letter.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-turbo-system-intercooler/303828-td05h-td06-turbo-rebuild-part-1-a.htmlThe rebuild overall was pretty straight forward and it doesnt say anything in the guide abt the wheel and such having to be...

Well then what should be my next step then? Have the 14b rebuilt by a professional? Will it have to be rebalanced or what?

The pcv is fine, I tested it at the Throttle body and it was holding 20+ psi. Even when I removed the pcv and blocked off the hose all the air is coming out the VC.

If its a 95 the ignition timing is always correct. You dont use a timing light on 2gs. You should be able to put a new cas in and be good to go.

Yea make sure he drain ALL that gas out. Also I would pull out the fuel pump assembly and clean out the fuel tank the best you can. Throw some fresh 91/93 in, put on another cas and give it another go. A good seafoam treatment after you get it running thru the fuel system would do wonders im...

I get 20+ psi at the Tb pipe during a boost leak test but when I test it at the turbo inlet all the boost comes out of the valve cover (out the oil cap/pcv valve hole)I was told all the boost is leaking past some seal in the turbo and going into the motor and that after a rebuild I should not...

Crazy. Well I guess im not going to fill it up again. $20 at a time LOL

Ok logs uploaded. The first log was done about 1 gallon burned after the fill up. Tons of knock and car physically cut the gas. Second log was done after a bit over 2 gallons was burned, probably would have knocked more but I let off. 3rd log was after about 4 gallons were gone. As you can see...

I stopped putting gas as soon as it clicked. Quite possible its overfilled but didn't think it'd cause something like this. Before I rebuilt the motor it never had this issue. This is the second time now.Its never been tuned and I don't have a wideband so i dont know my afr. But I know the...

The problem lessoned up a bit since ive been driving around and burning some of the gas. Im getting a few count of knock (3-4) tho when i really get on it tho. Its rather infrequent though (once every 3 pulls. Some pulls i wont get any knock)Its very odd anyone have any suggestions?

It stalls as soon as i let off the gas pedal

Just filled the car up with 91 and after about 15 seconds of driving the car basically is acting like the Maf plug was unplugged. Keeps stalling out and it wont let me go over 2k rpms and it sounds terrible.Cars been running fine for awhile. The fuel filter is about a year old and i'm running...

I did about 500 street miles before I started launching on my Stage 1.5 TRE rebuild, I think 700 should be plenty. I have about 5k miles on it now and done atleast 3 dozen launches on it and shes holding up great.

To state the obvious.. no its not legit.

Fel-Pro composite is working great so far on my rebuild. Have about 1500 miles on it.

So i've been trying to tackle this for some time now and I still cant get all the leaks fixed.Currently I get about ~3 psi with the tester hooked up to the throttle body pipe and similar results with it clamped on the turbo inlet.So far i've done:TB Shaft Seals New injector seals...

Damn JTM, your avatar really threw me off for a moment.I mumbled under my breath "holy shit Defiants back"
