its modified and it doesnt leak, if it works why not use it haha. the cars name is scrappy after all, lol.

if your harness is in good shape, just do the adapter harness, it will make things easy and if you need to pin in or hard wire in you can do it on the adapter side, that way your not messing with the original harness.

I would run the factory harness and any additional wiring you need, just build that harness and run it into the where the ecu is and pin it in as needed. unless of course your emu uses different plugs than your factory harness.

I plan on doing a youtube video on this car in the next month or 2, I used this car to experiment with ideas on running 2 meth kits just so see how well it would work and it worked out so good I implemented the idea on my supra but I did that one properly unlike scrappy where every thing is...

this car has been parked for 6 years, just Got it going again the other day, figured I mide aswell start driving it again. I named the car Scrappy as its built out of left over parts from other projects and scraps lying around, its my own flavor of compound turbo, stock 14b primary and an old...

Does any one recognize thes piston, I assumed it was a factory 2g piston but the top ring is thinner than a 2g top ring, the bottom ring is the same as a factory 2g piston.

so I tried a different smoke machine and found a bad intake mani gasket, I feel like an idiot now cause I didnt find the leak before when I smoked it with a different machine. also the leak was not audible and the car did not idle high, I suppose had I used a vac gauge that also would have told...

yes the car runs of the factory narrow band o2, I have tried running it unplugged, the car should run off a default map when it doesnt see a sensor. I have played with the dip switchs on the maf t, every variation of air meter size, seems to run a little richer when on the largest maf air meter...

the only thing I havent done yet is check all the grounds on the wire harness, I dont know the history on this car, it is possible that some one has monkeyed around with the wire harness.

the intake mani gasket is new, plus I smoke tested the entire system for leaks, there are no leaks.yes the car has an OEM botsch o2 sensor that is brand new.when I tried with the maf translator the AUX set to 0 and base is set to 0, this is the setting for the smallest injector size and...

the car does miss at idle, and the plugs are white, I havent driven the car yet, I want this part sorted out first.

A friend of mine brought me a 90 talon in pieces, I put in a new engine and am now at fire up stage, the car starts but idles lean (brand new aem wide band guage) it has the a/f pinned lean at idle, it revs up fine but idle is so lean that it almost wants to stall out. here is what I have done...

I have had more than a few dsms in my time and I do balance shaft deletes to them all, if the car had lifter tick before the balance shaft delete, it didn't have it after the delete. The oil pressure gets raised and the lifters charge up with a little more oil and the tick goes away, at least...

Did this swap ever get finished?

Bone stock dsm - YouTubeMy bone stock talon boost pressure. Also put it on the dyno just to see since I have not seen a video of any bone stock talons on the dyno.

my buddies stock engine stock turbo talon with full breathing mods vs my bone stock talon.Eagle Talon Dyno Pull - YouTube

I agree a bone stock talon does put down 120 awhp, stock they are very week. but with some breathing mods on a stock turbo you can pick up about a 100 whp.mine put down 120 whp at 3000 feet elevation.:thumb: Talon VS Police - YouTube

yes I did ground the out the base timing terminal to set base, the problem was the ignition timing is retarded and it could not be advanced far enough to get base timing to 5 degrees. timing would only advance to 0 degrees. I took the sensor apart to inspect it, accidentally dropped it and when...

bump

93 7bolt tsi fwdLike the title say's, ignition timing will not advance past 0 degrees when in base timing mode. I have the CAS all the way advanced and the base is at 0 degrees, this is the second time I have run into this problem. If I swap out the stock black top sensor for a green top, I...

These grumpy cat photos have been going around today I found its owner, lol.

the first pic is the crank shafts nice little grove, non usable. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=138088&d=1335387537the second pic, is the crank end play on my used short block.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=138089&stc=1&d=1335409697...

So here is what a factory beat up thrust bearing looks like from my engine in the first video post of this thread.

It is mine, but I bought it like this, I knew the engine was coming out cause it had some severe rod knock. It will be getting another 7 bolt, I'm getting one from some one I know who broke his tbelt. His head is no good but the bottom is alright, the pistons are slightly marked by the valves so...

For those of you who dont know what crank walk is, here is a video. 4g63 crank walk. - YouTube

I pulled the valve cover off a talon and noticed the cams have stamped on them G on the left and A on the right, I rolled the cams over and one has 30 and the other 31 stamped on oppisit side. never seen stock cams like this before if they are stock.

I recently did a 6 bolt swap on a 93 talon with a black top cas sensor and am unable to advance the timing to stock base timing of 5 degrees. The cas is advanced all the way and my base timing is set to 0 degrees with the cas advanced to its limit, I need to advance it more but the cas mold only...

I have the same problem, but I narrowed it down to the injector signal pulse. While the car is idling I rev it up to about 1500 and maintain, the miss fire will begin. I pulled injector plugs off one at a time and found cylinder 2 made no difference, I stuck a noid light on the injector plug...

Not necessary but does it make the car run perfect apposed to just good.

Do you have to do the invert on a 97 with a 97 ecu. What is different from 96 to 97.

Did that clutch tool work out alright, or have you used it yet.

"nitro methane is for ####y's" f&f quote :cool:

I don't think this is political, It is just a neat video I found. If you want to watch it watch it, there is no need to comment on it. There are a lot of funny things about cops in the video.LOLOUR SYSTEM OUR STRUCTURE OUR ILLUSION | Documentary Heaven | Watch Free Documentaries Online

If your bored and want to see some interesting and funny you tube comments ROFLcheck this out. YouTube - prelude with nitrous STILL WEAK, LOL.

Yes it is tt. :D Video's of it on the road coming this summer, I will have some drag strip videos up when our track opens in the spring.:hellyeah:

Thanks all, if you wana see my build pics they are all posted on face book, pics are open to the public. ( turbotim spooled ) It is still a work in progress, I don't like the intercooler couplers you see under the hood I am going to get some nice new ones, I just had these lying around. Break...

I just got my project car running last week and went for the first test drive today and wow is all I can say! That thing rips, It definitely pulls harder than the 16g stroker dsm I just built that is set at 18 psi.:hellyeah:I have a couple bugs to work out though, I was not able to do a full...

Okay guys I just finished building a 97 awd talon, it has a2.3 stroker 6 bolt swap, balance rotating assembly, complete with 1g head, intake and throttle body. evo 3 16g, fmic, 3inch turbo back exhaust, mild port head, no balance shafts, fidanza aluminum flywheel spec stage 2...

Mine wasn't a kit, I deleted it my self, tapped it, put a bolt in with thread locker and reinstalled it.

what was the determined cause of the material in your oil pan.

I don't see how what your saying can happen because there is almost no load on the stub shaft, but when there is a heavy weight attached to it making it spin out of round I could see the balance shaft doing the damage before the stub.I have driven on deleted balance shafts for over 60 000...

Pound in some new bearings 180 degrees out and put the front shaft back in or put a frost plug in the front shaft hole on the oil pump housing. cut the oil pump shaft off, thread the hole, put a bolt in with locktite and done.

I just got my 2jz gte powered fc rx7 running tonight, any guesstimates of how fast it will go down the track. Ya it's not a dsm but its still fun.It has pretty light mods, jdm 2jz gte r154 5spd, fidanza aluminum flywheel spec stage 3+ clutch, fmic complete with dsm crushed bov, 3 inch turbo...

never cheap out on a turbo, you will regret it.

Rofl.

I am not familiar with Holset H1C 8-blade. 25 psi of boost on a 16g and 25 psi of boost on gt42r will give you massively different results in hp.The real question should be how much power can a stock bottom end hold. I have personally been over 400 whp on stock internals and never had a...

Like I said I am not familiar with a 20g turbo, but you can figure out if you are in the efficiency range of the turbo if you have it's compressor map.TurboByGarrett.com - Turbo Tech103I have done these calculations to figure out the best turbo for my performance goals, this is how you...

let's simplify the problem with bankers and debt. What you are not seeing.Say you lend johny $1000 and for simplicity reasons lets just say that is all the money in existence. At the end of the year you ask for the 1000 back and 100 for interest, johny says well I only have 1000, but you...

30 psi from one turbo to the next is completely different. When you are measuring boost pressure that measurement is what is not getting into the engine that is why your gauge measures pressure.What the real question should be, is how much volume of air is getting into the engine. The more...

I have had many clutch's, Here are my 2 favorites. Centerforce dual friction, this one is a little stiffer than stock and will take a ton of abuse. Then Spec stage 2 or stage 3+, the stage 2 has a lighter than stock pedal feel and will hold quite alot of power. The stage 3+ also has a lighter...
