Does anyone in the area have a good DSM shop they trust? I have a lot of things Id like to do eventually, but for starters I have some gauges that need to be installed that require some welding and also have dsmlink I'd like to get tuned.Thanks
Hey I'm in Cordova and have a 97 GSX would love to give it some TLC but have no idea where to start. Might be cool to meet up some time and pick your brain.
DSMLink doesn't work...yet But you can use Logworks, Rev, Dashcommand, Dynolicious and I'm sure there are other apps you can use for Dyno, Eco Meter, Scan Tool, Data Logger and Gauge if you had the hardware to interface it. I know there are other companies that are working on new products to...
To answer what is it? It's basically a car PC. Possibilities for use are limited by your imagination. It could be used for gauges, logging, Music, Video, GPS, just to name a few... You obviously wouldn't use the device while driving. The Head-unit can control all the audio functions without...
Just got my iPad installed in my dash using the Padholdr mount system. Also have the keyboard tray. I thought I would share some pics.iPad in dash - a set on Flickr
Guys,I'm in somewhat of a pickle. I took my 97 GSX to the stereo shop today to have an alarm and stereo installed. However, they lost a few screws and screw brackets that I need to replace. Other than a junkyard, where can I buy these oem parts? The parts numbers would be easier to find...
I read the vfaq and other sources and everyone says it's 24mm so I went out and bought a 24mm socket to change all my gear oils. Well the 24mm socket works fine for the transfer case and the rear diff but it seems too big for the tranny drain plug. Has anyone else come across this? I'm trying to...
I love the look and design I'm keeping my eye on this for the finished product. I don't know how soon you would need the money but this would have to be an after taxes kind of purchase for me (late February)... I wish at 4k we had a better choice than fiberglass. I can understand and...
Stupid question...I've decided to go with Royal Purple for my gear oils. But I don't know if I am supposed to use the SYNCHROMAX in both the transaxle and the transfer case, then use their Gear Oil 75-90 for the rear differential, or am I supposed to only use the SYNCHROMAX in the tranny and...
Sorry to be so green but this is about the most I've worked on a car... but I definitely want to learn. Could someone verify what that is that I'm referring to in the picture and what type of fluid I am supposed to fill with. If I had to guess I would say that is the transfer case... but I...
Well I guess it won't hurt anything to let the MAF rest on top of the bracket like I have it showing in the pictures. Just got a little frustrated when trying to install it and couldn't get everything lined back up how it was.Is this the one your are referring to? Forced Performance...
Oh so thats not a stock part? Maybe the previous owner installed it?Is there some other type of bracket? It seems that the Intake would sag and fall if something wasn't there holding it up.
Thanks for the info...Did I even refer to this correct? Is this where the transaxle fluid goes? Or is this the Transfer Case? There is another thing to the left of this that also has a drain and oil fill cap.
I changed my oil today and noticed some fluid just kind of sitting there under there is that my transaxle? I took a picture might be hard to see. I took the off the screw that's labelled oil while I had the car up for the oil change and nothing came out does that mean I've lost all my fluid...
Update on this...Well I went ahead and purchased the eBay chrome intake. I installed it today and noticed a fitment issue. The metal support bracket that held the MAF wont fit now with this new intake. It's like the intake is longer, and now the MAF rests on top of the bracket as seen in...
Wow thanks thats a great review. So it sounds like you would still recommend it for a stock setup or temporary upgrade. I plan to eventually upgrade my turbo and when I do I'll get that dejon intake. I guess I can't expect much better at this price point.
Awesome! Great to hear some real feedback from a few people that actually own it! I feel a little better about making the purchase thanks guys. Just checked out your pics Alex, looks good! did you change your turbo is that why you don't have it any more? Did anyone actually notice a...
Thanks for the link... I already have a K&N cone filter so all I need is the tube... Is this still worth it just to buy the tube? Will it install with my setup fine? i don't see it asking about sizes. I don't see the BOV tube.Here's a pic of mine.
I'm looking to replace the stock intake tube from the stock MAS to the turbo and I'm a little confused on what all I need.I've been eyeing this one: DEJON | Powerhouse but if there is a better one out there or the if someone knows the best place to purchase this one let me know.FYI.. I...
Thanks guys, picking up a test light today and will see what I come up with.Well I feel like a complete idiot now... I got home with the test light looked up under the passenger floorwell and found one of the wires disconnected. All I had to do was reconnect it and my air started working...
Hey Guys,My A/C recently just stopped working. I can feel the engine pull when I turn on the A/C/Fan but absolutely no air comes out of the vents. I'm real green when it comes to working on cars but I'm willing to figure it out if someone could point me in the right direction.I've read...
Thanks for all the replies.What Oil PSI is best on a GSX? 0-100 or 0-150 psi?Also, I didn't think I needed both an EGT and Wideband. Doesnt the EGT give the best bang for the buck? If the gasses are too hot doesn't that mean I'm running lean? and vice versa?
Well I'm finally planning to get my gauges and pillar pod installed. I have a 3 pillar pod and 2 gauges Boost (analog) and EGT (Digital), both AEM and I just need one more to complete the install.What would be the most efficient use of that extra pod space? I had planned on putting in an...
I noticed today that I had a little oil leak under the rear differential. Is this normal for a small leak? How do I fix that? Is there a tutorial on here for fixing this?Thanks in advance!Does anyone have any information? I did search the forum first before posting this and couldn't...
Was really just looking to network with other Memphis DSM owners to share info on who you guys trust when it comes to working on your DSM. I know better than to just take it to anyone. Also just curious who else is nearby.
I did a lot of reading on here and asking questions first. There weren't any GSX's around my area either but I found a guy on the internet about 300 miles away and I drove up to meet him to check out the car and I bought it on the spot and drove it back home.
Sorry to bring up a dead post but rather than post a new thread I just wanted some clarification.I checked my dipstick today and noticed something similar as OP. There are no lines or words on my dipstick only 2 notches. This doesn't seem to match up with my owners manual. Do I have the...

That's the one I plan to get when the time is right. I read someone on here that someone was able to keep their fogs with it with some minor modification.
