Hey all. So recently i bought a 98 gst spyder...mostly stock (just some ebay bov and a catback). I bought in ohio (doesnt require inspections) and live in pa (which does). I hooked up a scanner and it shows 5 monitors not ready.Now, i have an evo x and use ecuflash. In it, theres a way to...
If you have a 99 GST like you're profile says and you have the factory ecu, then you have a factory blackbox ecu, which means you could still put in the motor and you can use Evoscan to datalog and ECUFlash to make any changes. I have both on my computer, however, I'm not a tuner.I can also...
So, I'm sitting here bored and reminiscing of my old DSM days...then the thought popped in my head...where's my first one at?? Here's a pic from summer 2011:All I can tell you is that I sold the car to someone in Ohio, he AWD swapped it, it was at 2011 shootout, the guy sold it that...
I want to make this short and sweet. I had a stock 99 longblock. i swapped the head for an evo3 and built it up (kelford 272s, kiggly valve train, etc). The block, all I did was swap rods/pistons (for evo 8). After I had it all said and done, i tried to prime the oil pump (with timing installed...
In case you already haven't found out, whatever head you have (2g), you must have the same matching manifold. However, you can have a 1g throttle body (or larger if it bolts up)
Ok here's the deal: I had a stock 99 longblock and because I wanted more power, I decided to do a small rebuild. Here's what I did, swapped the head for an evo 3 with no work done, kiggly beehives, titanium retainers, topline revised lifters, kelford 272s,, new timing belt, new water pump, kept...
If you are worried about a bad starter ground, here's what I did. I took the ground wire out and took out the bottom starter bolt, I went to home depot and found the matching bolt but longer along with a nut, then I put the new bolt in. I put one end of the ground wire on the end of the bolt...
With a little help, got it.It starts...that's step one... - YouTubeNow, that it started...now I have new concerns. The car ran for over a minute, I got an oil pressure gauge hooked up to the holset right at the turbo and the car NEVER had (or showed) oil pressure.It started smoking at...

I'm gonna fiddle with it tonight. Borrowed a cam sensor and raise the fuel pressureupdate: I didn't install said borrowed cam sensor...but I noticed this: I wanted to check all my plugs and connections. For a brief second, I thought I accidently swapped the crank position sensor and ac...
Since it appears no one will be stopping over, I'm gonna use this part of the day to actually work out. Later on, I'll continue to fiddle around with the DSM.If I can get a good cam sensor off of someone to borrow, that'd be cool. I'll get a can of starting fluid.
I don't think I'm off for 2 reasons.The cam marks ALWAYS line up at TDCAs far as I'm concerned, the car started and ran. The only thing I didnt check during the whole 8 sec. start was the oil pressure for the holset. I have the oil pressure gauge in the cabin. I don't mind the hot oil ROFL
All fuses are fine. All relays have been tested, battery voltage is somewhere in the hihg 13's (brand new battery I also charged). Fuel pressure is something I thought about. Since upgrading the fuel line basically from the pump to the rail, would that change anything?It was the most...
I'm going to give as much excruciating detail as humanly possible. ANY help is appreciated.Ok, I had a 99 GSX with rust issues. Took all the fun stuff out and put it in a 97 GST. Literally, it its part of the chassis, its GST, everything else is from the GSX. Took me longer than expected but...
Top Gun humorAny rate, this DSM has pushed me to the edge. It's depressing, I'm demotivated. I'm sad, and I'm trying to get this car up and on the road, not only for shootout but for when I move in September. I NEED ANYONE AND EVERYONE'S HELP LOCALLY WHO CAN COME OVER AND LEND A HAND OR MORE...
Don't be fooled by the awd swapped tag. The only part of that car that is legitly gst is chassis, evereyhhing else was swapped from my old 99 gsx (evo 3 head, 99 block, 95-96 bell housing with 99 gearset
I've been thru 6 starters and just had mine rebuilt. What it does is engages then freespins. I've had this issue for months and it only really started when I replaced the flywheel
Right now, I have an act 2600 with a southbend tz kevlar disc and fidanza flywheel. Ever since install, I've had start up issues...mainly my starter not engaging the flywheel. However I did buy it used a lo time ago. Anyways, I'm looking to end the nightmare and just replace it and I would like...
From left to right 4-3-2-1 on the head, 4-1-2-3 on the coil pack. Spark plugs are tapped between .028-.032Now, I'm sure I'm getting fuel to the rail, but since I has no friends except for a few who are always busy, I can do the injectors. I did recently put in a new filter and ss line from...
So I found that 2 of my injectors (450) are leaking.Since the last time I said anything, I had my starter rebuild which did make a huge difference. I'm convinced that my injectors are the problem now
I'm down to only one. I stupidly turned on an own starter for an autozone reman...now I have another oem. It was what was starting the dsm before so I haven't a clue. I'll stop over Sunday if your free but other than that, ill give those guys a call. Thanks
So my 2g has had countless starter issues...since doing my awd swap. I have a stage 2 tmz transmission, act2600, southbend tz disc, and fidanza flywheel. Yes, the flywheel is in great condition and is an awd. Yes I have a starter plate. If you read my profile, all the mods have 0 miles on it. I...
I agree it's low, but that wouldn't prevent it from starting...since it already has technically...even for a few seconds.I also know that the ECT sensor can play a role in it not starting. I put in coolant but only 1 gallon. Would adding more coolant increase the chances of starting? I'll...
Mods-I didn't know exactly where to put this so I'm putting it here. Feel free to put it in the appropriate subforumAnyways, my car is not starting. It cranks, but won't turn over. Look at my mods list on my profile to get an accurate idea of what I got going on.So over the past week, my car...
