Heh, i already got it all stripped to head and block. Gonna re gasket the thing. Leaked oul like a siv. Hopefully i can get that all done in a week or two.

But its stuck :/ as in wont wiggle, slide budge and so on...

Yea, i got both pieces. And as you can see, both are off the sprocket. Now how do i adjust it?

i have the bolt... it just wont flush up

I did a search and surpridingly couldnt fiind out how to fix this. Essentially the crank sprocket is... slipping off. Just need to know how to fix it. Mallet dont work.

Im looking at the 97 6 speed. (looks like a skinny DSM)

In reference to patience, that sounds like a good project car for me. I love tinkering for hours.

Besides the obvious crunch in workspace, whats so hard to work on... and i can relate to the stripping aluminum, my valve cover was rather intimidating when i was putting it back on (dont strip dont strip dont strip... whew).

So i was looking at getting a 3kGT or a Stealth, and while researching the engine setup i noticed something that seemed off to me about the charged air system. Being twin turbo and a V6 the turbos are a different distance from the intake, meaning different distances from the compressor to the...

I read all 380 then the little addendum.... lol

Update. got the LEDs in XD

Ive learned a few things from Vegas DSM life. None of them are really social.

Looks like my 14b

Ok, also, the clutch engages oh.... about 3/4 of an inch from the floor... that normal?Uh boy. Results for above test: 1st -> Solid, RPMs Dip but no grind 2nd -> Creep, goes past normal gear engagement point and *GRIND* 3rd -> Solid, RPMs Dip but no grind 4th -> Solid, RPMs Dip but no...

Ok first the facts: 6k miles new transmission (OEM) Clutchmaster FX400 4 puck sprung clutch (bout 8k) Fizanda Lightened flywheel (6 bolt swap) Brand new Slave Cylinder SS Clutch LineHeres the problem: Im at a stop light (As i mostly am in Vegas) and i slip my stick into 1st and lift...

Ok, so were actually gonna meet up right

Woo for water leaks. Been seeing some greenish sticky stuff in my engine bay and we all know what that is... so im driving to work, just get on Sunset and i see my temp gauge creeping up. *pulls over into a chevron* Radiator cap is empty when i open it. So i fill the thing with a gallon of water...

Its... so... shiny.....

Facebook Add me if your a Vegas DSMer

OMG :hellyeah: :rocks: :thumb: :applause::applause::applause:

Im just going to replace the thing. Then return master if the slave fixes the problem. And also would this cause my 2nd and ONLY second to grind?Possible light shed on the issue, Recently shifted into second after pumping the s*** out of the clutch and it went into 2nd smoothly. Im thinking...

Slave seems to be leaking and the master i haven't looked into... what should i look for?

Ok my clutch pedal has been going kind of flat lately. Its not nearly as stiff as it should be. Occasionally it even loses pressure and drops to the floor. Also i had to speed shift most of my way home cause the clutch seemingly isnt fully disengaging. I WAS thinking bad slave but it may also be...

Im there, 7PM sounds fine

Oh it bugs me too, along with poping into neutral from first at stop signs. Im getting a new slave cylinder soon to fix that one.

Anything thats solid works better than OEM.

I was thinking about lining the edge of the space under the middle with BRIGHT LEDS.

Ok, what time? Lets organize this thing!

YES LETS DO IT. lol. we can do race when the speedway opens again.

Yea i was thinking the same thing... hot lamps under plastic =/= good. ill get some super bright LEDs and stick in there.

Anywhere i can look to get it rigged? I couldnt find anything here...

Ok, it looks like it should. It would be pretty cool to see a glowing "ECLIPSE" passing by you.

Searched for a while and cant find the answer to this: My mid tails dont light up, are they supposed to?

2000 miles later still no misfire issues. Idle is still ~2.5k but that'll be fixed with DSMLink in a few.

Finally had time to do a much needed and overdue oil change. Also put in a new gasket for the oil pan. Hopefully it'll Fix the leaks :rocks:

Ok guys, ive been ahving a bad misfire issue that throws a MAF CEL. I also recently found two little holes in my intercooler. SO FAR the problem has gone away after soldering the holes. Any input?

Initial reaction -> WTF :tease: WTFSecondary Reaction -> :cry::banghead:

Tripp is heading where i am. I get i need the DSMLink and injectors etc. Im mainly digging on turbo info for future use. DSMLink is my next investment im just wondering why this or why not that.

I'm new to the details in turbo systems. Big 16G keeps popping up so i wanted to know if that's where i should go and why. If not what else should I do and why? That's my current stand. And my 2G Eclipse has the ported 1G stock 14B turbo. My basic goals are more "get up" as some would say, so...

I'm looking to upgrade my 14B 1st gen turbo to the famous BIG 16-G. I hear a lot about other turbos that are better like T-20s and so on. What would you suggest? Give me a little background on why if you make a suggestion too please. I like to be educated when i make decisions for upgrades.

Yea they feel great too. MUCH better response time. Vibration isn't too bad, but that's what the stereo is for :D hmmm i sense another blog post

Just got the motor mount replacement done. Used Avid Racing Billet Motor Mounts which work GREAT.Driver Side Mount unboltedYea, they needed replacingOk bolts off... now to get the !@#$ thing outNice and perty installFront Roll Stop comparisonIll get more pics up of the...

So it has a fitting to bolt the turbo on... sorry I've only had turbo cars and always saw them as headers.

Ok me and a coworker are both into cars... only difference is racing preference and car model. He drives a 1990 Miata and drifts. The argument thus far is Headers VS Turbo Manifold. What is the difference?

So weekend after thanksgiving weekend? im down

i was meaning the bulbs... like what size and type. sorry for being undetailed:ohdamn:

Oh! (apologies in advance for double post) Is there any way to flat REPLACE my gauge cluster with a custom one?*EDIT*And what are the floor illumination lights?

Sorry for being new to auto mechanics, but whats an SS o2?

Ok, i bought my eclipse with a LOUD exhaust system. Im talking rice status. So i need some direction as where to go with modding my exhaust system. Its a GS-T with a 14b 1g stock turbo. See my mod list or ask about any specs i need to let ya guys know about. Any help is helpful :thumb:

Fixed the issue, took the car to a place my dad likes and they checked the clutch fluid reservoir and pumped it a couple times. works great now, engages where its supposed to.
