Posting here because it doesn't really fit anywhere else, mods move if you feel appropriate. So here's the deal, I picked up this 97 GST a couple months ago and have been rehabilitating it since then. All boost/intake leaks have been eliminated except for a very small leak at one injector. Plugs...
So I recently switched to speed density (yay!) and I'll just say I'm loving it! However after the switch I've noticed a difference that I can't really pin down to any particular cause. Running my clipped MHI big 16g previously with the MAF tune power would roll on fairly smooth from ~0psi to...
I just got some RC 750cc injectors installed the other day, got them dialed in with TunerProRT and got the car running great at 14psi. Bumped up my NLTS from 6krpm to 7krpm, and went to do a full 3rd gear pull. As soon as I hit ~6150rpms on the log, it FELT like fuel cut. Very violent power...
I've researched and searched all over and haven't really found what I'm looking for. I have both stock fans in place, with the stock wiring harness. Currently I have the A/C fan jumpered to run full-time with ignition ON as shown in this article...
To give a very small back story, I've had my DSM tuned to 11.2:1 WOT AFR for a few months and it's seemed pretty happy there on 91 pump gas. After a recent canyon run with a buddy on his R6, I noticed my manifold glowing a little and decided 11.2:1 is still a little lean (I unwittingly ran close...
I've been trying to troubleshoot this "issue" for a while now, searching the forums and the whole internet, and haven't been able to make much progress. I have power door locks, with the "factory option" Karr alarm which both worked fine the first few months I owned the car (late 2011). Suddenly...
Alright, I've been reading, searching, and trying all the ideas I found for the past week and I've reached a dead end trying to figure out this damn phantom knock. :banghead:Mod list in profile is up to date, OEM Mitsu sensor is only a couple months old, wiring is in good shape, running 2g...
Alright, I'm getting frustrated lol. Been searching for a few hours now between DSMECU, hwsnd or whatever that page is, and here on Tuners. I'm trying to find the hex code to convert the 1g stock boost gauge to a knock gauge, and still empty handed. I found a few posts on DSMECU regarding the...
So I've done some searching and it seems there hasn't been much discussion on running an EVO MAS in a 1G without some form of fuel control. I have a line on an EVO 9 MAS with harness for a really good price, and am trying to think of what size injectors would keep my AFR's close or in line like...
So, I've had this odd boost leak for a month or so now, and have not been able to track it down. It doesn't leak vacuum, only boost so the car idles fine. Basically, once in a while I'll get on it a little and it will spit/sputter and go very rich. Once it leaks I can snap the throttle shut and...
Okay, I've tried searching for several hours and can't find a thread with my problem, let alone one that answers my question.. I'm on stock ECU (no Link, no SAFC, no tuning at all), stock MAF, stock injectors, stock fuel pump (rewired), stock FPR, stock turbo.
Car runs fine in closed loop, but...
Hey guys, I've been searching for a while and coming up empty-handed. I have a DEJON intake on my 1g, currently with an ill-fitting coupler to the compressor inlet, and I just noticed that it kind of pinches the line on my wastegate nipple. I'm trying to find an offset coupler (like the FP...
I figured I'd post this in the newbie section since I feel like a newbie right now.. I've been slowly working out all the kinks on my car, but I'm just about out of ideas with this deal. I've narrowed it down to it only happening during closed loop - warm idle and part throttle...
I know there are at least a handful of people on here that work at race shops, plus all of the vendor reps.. So I'm curious, how did you get your foot in the door? What kind of school/education, experience, what position did they stick you with at first?I know the economy isn't ripe for it...
Wasn't sure where to post this so I figured I'd stick in the "general" area.. Just curious if anyone has dealt with/bought from autopartsdeal(dot)com before? Seems like one of those random vendors that sells everything from an overseas sweatshop, but it's just about the only place I've found...
Okay, I should explain a little here. I have a DIY tester that clamps to the compressor inlet. I plug off/bypass all necessary things - plug bov, remove MBC, plug VC breathers, and I get as close to tdc as I reasonably can with the screwdriver on the piston trick. I realized that my crankcase...
So this just started last night, and I haven't done any work to anything remotely related to the power doorlocks.. I noticed first when I went for a cruise last night, when I got home and turned the car off the doors didn't unlock like they normally do. Then this morning I go out to leave for...
Okay, I've been dealing with an intermittently bad idle for 6 months now. My CEL JUST NOW came on, so I plugged in MMCd and got codes 36 42 43 and 44. 43 I'm disregarding for now because my EGR is removed and blocked off. 42 I'm not too concerned about either as I've done a fuel pump re-wire and...
I'm messing around with MMCd, which I've had for a while and used the basic functions, but I'm looking to play around with the custom sensor options and injector testing. I have the sourceforge page bookmarked, but the address/function stuff honestly makes no sense to me - none of the values fit...
To give a little back story, my car has been acting up/generally running "iffy" for a few months while I've tried to trace the problem - knock sensors, plugs, wires, mafs, etc. I finally decided to check my ECU since it still had the factory seals on the case from Mitsu. Or, now, so I thought. I...
I'll try to explain this the best I can, if anyone wants a video I'll see if I can capture the sound.. I've noticed off and on lately, that _sometimes_ when I boost I get what I can only describe as a fluttering sound coming from (I think) my turbo. The sound starts as soon as boost starts to...
I've searched and read everything I can find, but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info on _laptop_ logging - everyone either pocket logs or has link. I'm still on stock 14b so I'm not ready to spring for link, just want a better idea of what my car's doing.My question is, as far as...
So I just successfully completed my pump rewire following the 1g awd vfaq to the letter, the rewire itself went great and did the job but now I'm having some odd things happen: First, every time I turn my car off, the stereo resets as if I disconnected the battery (eq, presets, clock etc.) and...
So I just got an amp and sub from a buddy of mine, since my car's all wired up with nothing to make noise :P He thought the amp was blown, so I just hooked up the sub to one of my amps (known working, tested with a known working sub) but it turns out it's a problem with the actual speaker. I've...
So I finally did my BLT and found a few leaks.. I'm working on patching all of them up but I wanted to ask first, what this screw is on the throttle body?? It's actually leaking pretty badly from around the screw head :confused:
So I have searched, extensively, and haven't been able to find this same problem resolved.. I have a 92 GSX with basic bolt-ons (sig list is current) and I'm having issues with an intermittent stalling/power loss. First off, it seems to only do it when the engine is fully warmed (FIAV inactive...
