Ok guys I search and haven't found anything specific to my issue. On my last 2 2g dsm's when I open the hatch after any rain water comes running out from under the plastics attached to the bottom side of the hatch (seems like both had the issue on the drivers side). So the first 2g was a talon...
Motor is already together. Just need to install cams. Oh yeah and get my car back together LOL!!!!Yeah I work 12pm-1030pm so I only have weekends to work on it. I dont have a garage and It's been so damn hot out I haven't been able to get any real work done. I have set a realistic got on...
I did check them. But I was more focused on the lobes then the ends. Plus they were wrapped. I'm done with buying used parts like cams. Something that important I'll just buy new.Luckily I had to paypal some of the money to him. That gave me his full name. He told me the area he lived in. I...
So since we are on the subject of cams....
Kelford 272's
Or
The newest gsc s2My motor is a g4cs with 6 bolt head
Ffwd butchered crank
Groden aluminum rods
Wiesco 10.5:1 gas ported pistons
Off the shelf dual ball bearing gt35(real garrett)I will either be running e85 or 93 plus 50/50...
Yeah I will never buy another used cam. I'm either going to buy a set of brand new billet s2's or some kelfords when he gives my money back. I am supposed to meet him tomorrow.
Well the seller just got back to me. He said that he bought the cams used. When he installed them they had side to side play. So
sent them to delta to be checked out. He , he paid delta to have them fixed. He said he ended up buying another set of cams while delta fixed these. He said I can...
Yeah carma is a biznatch!!!!!!!! This is just really discouraging. Every time I think I can FINALLY start getting my car together something else goes wrong. I am just so blown.
I'm more worried about all the material that has been removed. There are jagged edges on it. Of couse the seller won't answer any calls or txt. I shouldn't have bought a used part to put into a brand new motor.
He insisted on meeting me locally. If I have to I'll take him to small claims court on principal. When I met him I was in a rush and the cams were oiled and wrapped in plastic so I just inspected them through the plastic. It just really burns me up because I would NEVER knowingly rip someone...
I'll take better pictures. The back side of the cam is really bad. I didn't want my wife see what I was doing because she is already about to divorce me over my car. Alot of material was takin off the back side of the cam and I don't want to take a chance putting this cam I'm my brandnew...
Yeah this is the straw that broke the camels back. I'm selling all of my dsm stuff and getting out the car game. 3rd time I've been burnt in 4 months. I'm done with shady folks. I have a fresh 2.4 race motor if anyone is interested.
Ok guys and gals I am reaching out to the community here for some help. I bought a 2g a few months back and the car has been an absolute NIGHTMARE!!!!!! To make a long story short I basically have to rebuild the entire car. If anyone in the baltimore area would be willing to lend their hands...

Well I like to use arp hardware whenever possible (or when I can afford it lol). So I just wanted to thank everyone for the help. The crank bolt came out instantly with my impact gun. It hit the frame so i couldn't get it all the way off. But now I know once I get the motor on the hoist I can...
Can someone elaborate on getting the sprocket out with the pully on still? I rather get it off and let the machine shop drill it out. It's a brand brand new fluidampr and those arp bolts were brand new and were torque to spec.
Ok. The motor in the car is just the the bare block with crank in it. So elaborate on what your saying here. Because I think getting this bolt out is a lost cause.Do I just keep the crank from spinning and put a 1/2" in the center and loosen it????
The second issue is that biznatch is SERIOUSLY stuck. I couldn't break it loose with an impact wrench or a 4 foot breaker bar (that's what ended up stripping it). I'm trying not to ruin my Fluidampr in the process since it's brand new..... the arp bolt was rounding off drill bits so an ez out...
Ok guys I am stuck dead in my tracks. I am in the process of pulling my old motor and putting my 2.4 race motor in. Today I went to remove my Fluidampr and 1 of the 4 arp bolts STRIPPED OUT. this thing is STUCK. Before it stripped I tried every trick including a HUGE breaker barand a high...

Well the way I'm looking at it is the is something very very wrong. So I'm going to pull the head to hopefully see a blown gasket. I rather have a blown head gasket instead of anything worse.
Yeah im gonna say head gasket. The drain plug was off for about 3 months not years. I already ordered the stuff for a hg job. Also I was using a harbor freight compression tester which are notorious for being 30 - 40psi low and inaccurate, so i might as well just guess 4 numbers. I'm thinking...
Ok guys need some advise before ripping my car apart. I fired up my car for the first time in 3 yesterday. It ran ok but I did notice a little smoke out of the tail pipe. This morning I took a look at the coolant and oil and the oil was MILKY WHITE! Coolant is still a nicr neon green. I went and...
FINALLY FIRED UP MY 2G!!!!!!! It's been a long hard road that is almost to the end!!!! I work 6 days a week and have 3 kids. Thank you to the all of the dsmtuner family members for the wisdom and kind words to keep me going. Also, thank you to the the classifieds for helping me find those hard...
Well I've decided to ditch the ms2 that came in my 2g and go with an evo 8 ecu as a cost saving measure since I already own a tactrix cable and evoscan/ecu flash. What I would like is the 2g to evo patch/jumper harness (seen it called both). Of someone knows where to get one please let me know!
Ok guys I got an insane deal on a full gt35r turbo setup last night(I'm talking super insane, drive 4 hours in the middle of the night deal!). I was wondering If anyone could tell me what size bolts I need for the 4 bolts that connect the 2.5" o2 housing to the exhaust outlet on the turbo.
Ok guys trying to get my new 2g up and running. The PO put a NA front water pipe on the car. I need the water pipe that I can run lines off of for a ball bearing turbo. It's a 6 bolt bottom end and a 7 bolt head. Let me know if anyone has the part # or a link of whereby can find it.
WOW! Proven member! What am I to do with myself? I am hoping to sell the white 1g Wednesday morning. Order a crap ton of parts. Then saturday dig into the "Street Monster". Haven't decided if I want to call it the "Street Monster". Or "Highway Monster". Decisions decisions. .....
If you youtube search "Ryan villeneuve" click on the 2nd to newest video. You can see the current situation there. I will post some pics tomorrow morning.....
Ok guys so on the strip car I bought has what I believe to be the lexan sunroof mod (that's kind of what I came up with when serving this). Well let's just say the sunroof mod has seen way better days. the thread that had the lexan sunroof mod looked good but I'm still not a fan. I was wondering...
Again, thanks for all the help guys. I actually decided to sell this talon to help fund my strip(being converted to street monster) car. I met a local guy and he is going to let me use his lift and he is gonna help me bring that monster to life.650hp here we come!
Well guys got it done! Thanks for all the help. I ended up using the pcv valve and I'm ordering the blow through one. once I got the valve cover off and relized a 3/8 npt fitting was the size of the cover and that I would never be able to tap a hole that big I tried one last time to thread the...
