Sold the car today. Unfortunately I was not able to put the time into fixing it since we are moving next week. Guy that bought it lives in Leadville so you wont see it driving around here anymore. Thanks to all the help I got from you guys and I had a lot of fun meeting up and cruising with most...

Parting out my 97 gsx. Let me know if you need anything. 303-506-5135 Tony.

I am sure I am not the first person to encounter the Manifold to turbo bolts coming loose on a 16g turbo. I have tried everything from locktite to lock washers to globbing high temp gasket maker all over the place. My next option is to drill the turbo thread out completely and do a nut and bolt...

97 Eclipse GSX, Auto trans, 16g, VRSF FMIC, 3 inch turbo back exhaust blah, blah, blah.......Ok so while on the highway two days ago I noticed I was getting an exhaust leak. I was also losing both un-boosted power and boosted PSI. I thought maybe the exhaust leak was pre- turbo and causing...

My first ever car journal. I have owned this car for about 1.5 years now but was deployed for almost 10 months during that time. This first part will be catching everyone up from purchase to today!!! Thanks for looking.This is the car as it sat the day after I bought it. A little rough...

Looking for other DSMer's in the Polk/Leesville area. I will be there in about 4 weeks and looking to organize meets and build days. Colorado DSM scene is just getting underway this year and I know I am gonna miss it so gonna try to put something together like we have here. Post a reply if you...

Gonna do a cruise up to Denver Sunday night, the 26th. Nationwide usually puts out the location around 2pm on facebook. I will put out more details once they post but for now lets plan on meeting in the springs around 6PM. Nationwide's event starts between 8-9 most nights so gives us about an...

Ok, gonna try to organize this meet a little better than last time. Hopefully can get more cars again. I am told by every dsm'er I see that the reason most don't come to meets is because they get posted and 10-20 people say they are gonna go but only 2-3 show up and makes people not want to go...

Whats the next day you all want to get together? I know we were talking about a mountain view next time for the photo op, a barbeque, and some beers. I can get out as early as next Saturday.

Replaced my alternator with one from advance auto (I know mhi is better) because my car died while I was driving. Got it in and restarted the vehicle to find out I had spun a rod bearing so figured the motor just got to warm and locked up. Replaced the motor and everything was fine for about...

Ok before I start I want to say I have looked at both RRE and Magnus write ups on this. I have read many threads to try to grasp this but I still cannot understand 100% what I need to do.I swapped a 1g 7 Bolt (yes 7 bolt not 6 bolt) into my 97 gsx with automatic transmission. I have my...

I could use someone knowledgeable in the Colorado Springs area this weekend. I'm doing a motor swap on my 97 GSX. It's nothing fancy just one stock motor to another stock motor. It's my first engine removal and installation And I would appreciate having the knowledge of someone that has done...

Found this in my oil pan while fixing a spun rod bearing.[/IMG]

Just got link installed and pulled my first log. its an idle log with a couple revs to make sure tps was adjusted properly. I did notice I am getting knock under revs and I don't know if that is normal. Overall I have no major complaints about my car. Not trying to troubleshoot anything yet but...

Finally gonna start owning my car. Up until yesterday everything done to my car was by the previous owner. Ended up getting some items the car needs:VRSF Short Route Kit LC-1 Wideband DSMLink V3 Speed Density Bundle with cable 4 piece fiberglass bodykitLooking for anyone that wants...

Is the only way to remove these to actually cut them? Looking at them today I can't see or feel anything holding these brackets on. I have already had the bumper support removed for about a year but just got a new front bumper and it hits the intercooler piping (Godspeed FMIC) where it sits in...

I am very new to the DSM game but can do things like BLT and install most anything with instructions. I also I am a quick learner when it comes to vehicles. Be willing to come lend a hand for no charge just to learn a few things about our cars. Heck I would even bring the beers. Let me know if...

I have a wire off the alternator that is hanging down and looks like it was pulled out of something. Anyone have a wiring diagram for the wires that come off the alternator? I checked the vfaq and dont see it.

I have read both of these posts:http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/97442-backfire-redline-high-rpms.htmlhttp://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/100963-wtf-misfire-bucking-almost-backfire-high-rpms.htmlNeither of them actually state what fixed the issue so I wanted to...

Looking for a 97 GSX front bumper. Doesn't have to be stock, prefer black but willing to work with any colors. Also looking for a factory CD/Tape player and black interior pieces. Let me know if you have any of these items for sale or trade.I have a 95 EPROM ECU socketed by Jacks...

Anyone down to get together this Friday? I will probably check out Sam's this weekend as its the first weekend back from Afghanistan and the car is running better now. I will most likely be out around 8-10 and I can give out my cell for anyone that wants to meet up.

Does a bad Turbo always blow smoke out the tailpipe? Trying to diagnose no boost on my eclipseand not getting any symptoms other than 0 boost and sluggish performance. I Haber an exhaust rattle at idle near the cat and was thinking maybe the cat is clogged causing the no boost issue. Thought I...

Found this setup on craigslist and the guy is a little shady when i asked him about what car this fits. He asked what car I am putting it on and then said "yea it will fit that."His exact post "TURBOCHARGER J70 A/R.70 ONLY BEEN USED ONCE, ITS UNIVERSAL AND PUSHES 500HP NICE HUGE TURBO I...

Seems kinda slow in this forum. Is there a big DSM following in Louisiana? Maybe another website everyone uses?

What's up all. Just found out I will be moving to Fort Polk this summer. Looking forward to getting to know some dsm's in the area. Right now the GSX is rough but should be in the build stage after this years tax returns. Anyone in the Fort Polk/Leesville area?

Looking for someone wanting to do a swap. I have a 97 eclipse gsx and want to do a full talon swap. Also would be interested in a straight trade for a 2gb talon tsi. Looking for full front and twisty sides, not really interested in rear swap but will do it if it makes or breaks the deal.

I am going to start this off by saying sorry. I have looked at hours worth of posts and countless opinions on everything from fuel to tinting. I really cannot decide on exactly where to start with my car. 97 GSX Auto. Currently it has a Godspeed FMIC kit, Ebay 16g, Greddy RS BOV, and a 3"...

Ok so custom kit or not? If it is not a custom kit, does anyone know what pieces are here? Looks almost like a Bomex front but I have no clue on the sides.Thanks for your time.Ok so searching a bit more I found out this is a design and not an actual car. Are there any aftermarket widebody...

Lets start from the beginning:Ebay 16G FMIC with hardpipesWhen I got my car 4 weeks ago everything was working fine. Getting around 14 lbs of boost at around 4900 RPM. I decided to change the stock exhaust with a 3" turbo back. Everything was still fine except that the o2 housing did...

I am going to Afghanistan and while I am saving all this money I am going to start stockpiling parts. Looking to see if I am missing anything major and seeing what you guys think of my selections so far. I am looking for a street-able 11-12 sec car. I don't want to push any parts to their limits...

I have a leak between the manifold and the turbo so I went and bought a factory metal gasket today from Mitsubishi. Issue is the outside is folded one way. Just need to know if the fold goes up or down. On the opposite side there is a little groove and I was thinking if I took the manifold off...

Just bought my first dsm and first ever turbo car. The owner couldn't tell me much other than they "bought the car this way". Looking to see if anyone can see what has been done so far and where I should start maintenance. I see a lot of leaking around the turbo. Also looking to see if the BOV...

I was browsing pics of talons all day and I should have saved this when I came across it but I didn't. Anyways Looking for a pic of a car that had ghost painted "Sponsor" stickers like GREDDY and such. I think the hood was a ViS hood but can't remember for sure. It was for sure a black hood of...

Looking to get a 2g AWD TSI and definetly looking to make it a monster car. Issue is that I dont know much about DSM's right now. Been reading forums everyday and getting a lot of good answers to some of my questions. Just wondering if in your guys opinion I should start with something basically...

Just wanted to say hey. I am a soldier stationed in Germany and I plan on buying a 2gb gsx when I get back to the States next october. I have been in hondas and cavaliers but this will be my first DSM. Good thing is I have plenty of time to find the right one and learn everything I can. I will...
