yea im kinda leaning towards the gold with black stickers and possiably powder coating the wheels black so it dont clash that much with the hyper black which is basicly a darker chrome

no problem thats what the fourm is here for ..... helpwet sanding is mainly for imperfections in the paint ie orange peal, clear coat runs, and little air bubbles. its not always a part of it if you have a really good painter who doesnt run the clear or orange peal it, but if they do they...

if it hasnt split by now then i doubt it will split any where else, they probly put more clear on the roof than the rest of the car and thats another reason it split like that, basicly the rest of the car cured and the roof didnt cause it was a heavier coat of clearas far as them repainting...

the car didnt get baked long enough after being painted, and if it was hot and humid durring the day then at night it got alot cooler and the clear wasnt completly soild yet and it shrank and cracked the clear. i worked at a body shop for a while and if u leave clear coat in a cup unsealed it...

Okay so I'm about to be picking up another 2g Gst that's making about 420whp and the only issue is it needs paint and I'm just gonna be repainting it the factory green and it has enkei rpm2's in hyper black. Now my question is I have a set of EVO 8 brembo's with brakets, but they need to be...

Looks good, if the flake was a bluish purple it would have been mitsu's Tarmac black it's such a sexy color tho man

Yea I'm a huge fan of the red but I truly love the white ones, I had a 95 white gsx and I traded in for my first Evo. And the guy who bought it from the dealership got an awesome deal cause he blew it up and try had to rebuild it all under 30 day lemon law in NY so he got more or less a new car

Still got them or what?

I'm torn between the 2. I've owned a lot of autos and alot of manuals, I love having a 5spd and banging gears there's nothing like it, power whenever you want it. My Evo 8 and Evo X were both awesome and I love driving them but in traffic they sucked especially sitting on hills lol. I also had...

You shouldn't scrape with the 2gb skirts, when I had my S4 it was on the pro kit with adjustable bilsteins and the body kit that was on the car when I bought it was in mint shape not scraped up at all I know it's a different car but still

Yea I'm deffently keeping it auto, going to be looking into that blue wire mod soon, and I already have an 18g, 950cc in, and still looking for a FMIC. I'm going to be above 350 with everything I'm doing to the car.

+2 on the Evo 9 GG, my fav. Color Evo of all time even tho I had a TB Evo 8. But deffently the GG with the roof black like a talon I think that would be pretty sick looking maybe even a flat black to make the GG stand out more

No problem man, it's deffently a good deal on your car and the swap is easy so it's not a big deal and I'm the same way I do as much work on the car myself that I can. I used to work at and auto body shop myself and I'll be preping my car for paint soon, I'm gonna keep it red and maybe do a CF...

Thanks man, I'm actually about to get my carpet dyed black since my tan one is actually stained pretty bad on the passenger floor. And as far as the seats go I'm going to get them redone in tan they are pretty worn in.And my wife always finds killer deals on parts and what not, she just got me...

Well they all look good.I'm a huge fan of plastic dip, I did the ram emblems on my new ram in plastic dip n they look great. I voted for 3 cause 1 just reminds me of a talon and 2 I just don't like it. I like 3 cause that little bit of red gives the car a little more contrast to it rather than...

Very clean car, 2gb is the way to go. My first dam was a 2ga and I sold it and waited to find a decent 2gb now I'm building mine dream car. Your build seems like its gonna be a good build can't wait to see how she turns out ............. On yea keep the green it's an awesome color ( just my .02...

great looking car and awesome build, i wish i could get them brembos I'm trying to find a set myself and cant wait lol

its all good i dont mind the getting off topic as long as it has to do with engine and and building it lol and its good information to know about all that stuff ya'll been fighting about

Alright, anything else I should consider while I'm at it?

Sorry I forgot to put that I wasn't really thinking about it at the time, the blocks already to the machine shop it had to get cleaned either way and they arent even charging me for the bore to .040 since the engine has already been there once to get bored to the .020 that it's at now. And yes...

I understand what your saying galant, I already have a forged crank and rods . I don't plan on going cheap with anything inside the motor I was just asking simply if I should spend the money in new pistons or on boring the block, and I'm just gonna bore the block not really a big deal, I don't...

Thanks bogas I'll look at those when I get outta workGalantstroket I'm not build a 6 bolt because I got the 7 bolt w pistons and a full head for 200 I'm not gonna go out an spend money on a 6 bolt when I can make just as much power on the 7 bolt I have an god forbid that something happens to...

Thanks for explaining that better for me,as far as goals go for the car im just looking for a 400hp street car that i can take to the strip sometimes and beat up on some honda's ya know. im trying to get a litlle hight rpm since its auto and yes i have the turbo already, my wife got it brand...

after the BC's in my evo i went to a set of HKS 272's make 330awhp and 325awtq. after it was tuned regular DD, stop and go traffic, hills ECT... it was fine i didnt have any problem at all maybe just a lil more gas from a dead stop, im not really sure how to explain it but how it was explained...

okay i was just making sure it would be worth it to keep the .040's an just bore the block to match them, i know they dont recomend anything more than .060 and i dont plan on going even that big, and i'll also have my stock block incase something happens.I'll deff be doing the beehive springs...

okay this is for all the engine guru's out there, i got a bare 7 bolt that is bored .020, i have pistons that are for .040 bore. Is it worth it to bore my block to the .040 or just buy some new .020 bore pistons? and is there really any gains from the bore?as far as supporting mods for the...

yes we did find the problem, going to be putting in some new sway bar bushings and ###### those collars hopefully everything works out good, trying to get s**T figured out with my engine build keep gettin 1000 diff anwsers

Thanks y'all I'm bringing her to my friends shop today he said its probably a ball joint as well so I'm gonna have him replace both sides just to be safe and so I ain't gotta go back an do the other side in like a month or two. And I might as well just start fixing everything in the drivetrain...

yup i checked everything it was all nice an tight, like i said i couldnt recreat the sound it makes while i had it up on jacks, i know when i had my Evo X it did the same thing but the strut was just loose, i also checked them an they were tight too, im not really in the mood to dish out money...

^^^^ ughhhhhh dont tell me that i just fixed 2 bad solenoid in my auto trans now possiably my ball joints, i cant win but i guess thats what i get for buying a 15yr old car with 187k on it right

Brembo's + 2g = sexyness, love the white brembo's man, i cant wait to pick up a set for my 2g so it will stop like my evo used to

i had it up on the jacks earlier and i checked them both an they both seem that they were bother very sturdy, i was wrenching on both of them to try an recreat the sound but i couldnt get it to

so i been having some issues, i got a 97 GSX w about 187,500 and its been making a metalic clicking in the front end driver side when i got over little bumps, when im driving down a flat road theres nothing but as soon as hit a bump it starts clicking everytime i hit a bump and i dont know...

Well its time for a bit of an update and change of plans/build. I after i had changed my brakes ( pads where shot) my brake light switch broke while i was breaking in the new pads and as i was playing with the switch my car just happened to go into limp mode. so i took it to the trans shop an...

Well I'm kinda new to the forum but this is my second DSM and I've owned mitsu's since i was able to drive, well enough about me now its about the car, pick it up from a friend who is deploying at the end of the week an i got it for pretty cheap. Now dont get me wrong its not a show car and sure...

hey man, drove the car today it was awesome, and the only upgrades he has for trans are a shift kit an stall converter it was nasty ###### one of the best automatic cars ive driven in a while, as far as the wheels going to clear brembo anything that will fit an evo will fit those breaks, look at...

Good looking car man, I got almost the exact same car but it's a 97 w 183k and only paid a G for it lol, I'm debating if I wanna make it stick or not I have a friend who is letting me drive his 375 awhp gsx that is auto to see if I like it or not. I'll be starting a build thread myself when I...
