alright, i'm looking for a semi build. I've heard that the stock evo 9 pistons do come forged and the rods are a little thicker. Hence why i was looking at an evo 9 setup. so does anyone know what they go for? thanks not looking to change setup :D

Hey guys im looking to go with an evo9 rotating assembly in my 2g. My question is how much should i expect to pay for pistons and rods combined with 120,000 miles? thanks

he forgot to add it comes with an aftermarket BOV

can you see somthing wrong with this, took me alittle bit lol 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS

http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/4461483573.html wow $4000..blown engine, broken door handles, horrible dent...shells clean tho

BOV upside down???

Coolant that is pressurized wants to find a way out. If there is a leak it will leak from the weakest point in the system such as your radiator or those hose. Once you repaired the weakest points in the system, now the system is building the correct pressure. It so happens that the NEXT weakest...

A broken axle will cause the vehicle not to be moved forward or reverse, almost feels like a slipping clutch in an open diff setup. With a welded diff the car can drive with one axle. Obviously thats manual but the clutches and axles still apply But wouldn't cause what your situation is. It...

Most likely leaking from the weep hole in the water pump. Like he said if your using straight water it wont lube components or if its old coolant it will develop electrolysis n eat cooling components. So a cooling flush is a good idea here n there. I would rent a cooling pressure tester n test...

I txted no answer?

Hey guys, Well the worst happen last week, rolled my car 4 times due to a failed balljoint. So im looking for a 97-99 gsx awd shell. Prefer not to have engine,trans or tcase. Mainly looking for a straight rolling body, Going to be turned into a 100% drag car. thanks for anyone that can point me...

I had a road tune with Wings, payed around 265$ for around 1 hr or so before i learned how to do it my self. One thing that I did notice is that he was in a hurry. It was like he had bigger fish to tune and was trying to get me out of the way, didnt seem like he was into it...Even drove 3 hrs to...

Ill leave this beauty here :) honda civicAw..someone beat me to it oh well still funny!!

Had the same thing going on with my 2g, there called door check, it has 2 positions tat it locks in place, most likely there cracked and needs replaced. Kinda hard to find tho, mine made a really loud pop when opening it every 45 degrees, found the door checks on eBay. Hope this helps

thanks im sending it back asap and getting it replace with a new one. would hate to destroy my new jacks trans 2.2 hd -_-

thank you, it looked ok to use but chipped In a spot were I didnt know if it would affect it.

Just bought an act streetlight flywheel. I got it in the mail today and when I opened it , it was cracked on the side of the flywheel, not the face. My question is would it be ok to install it? Please refer to the pic. thanks

Bringing back! Same thing happends to me. I am also using pin 44. Theres been some talk about this but never an answer...anyone care to help with this problem?

Some one really wanted that PHSSSSS noise1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Perfect, just the info i was looking for. Thank you.

Doing this swap as we speak. I read earlyer in the thread that the evo 9 oil cooler ports size were 18mmx-10an ( which im using -10an lines) SO this fitting should bolt into the ofh and the -10 fitting? http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ear-9919ffkerl/overview/ Says its a 18mmx-10an but also a...

Yes you are right. you do need the awd fuel sending unit harness/connector to splice into the fwd harnnes. I snaged mine out of my donor before i hauld it off to the junkyard

RESOLVED!!! The reason why my motor got hydrolocked was yes most of you were right. NO CHECK VALVE. It just drained into my intake slowly for 2 months without me knowing. I talk to snow performance and they explained to me that there was no internal check valve in the pump. I thought there...

half way done with mine. Got the whole rear end done. I used the 1st wiring diagram and have no problems. Fuel pump works and so dose both sender units.

Will do, I cant imagen that the 15 ft line by 1/4 holds 1 qt of fluid so maby the pump did turn on...or it just syphoned alot by cursive gravity. I have it set to come on at 10psi slowly ramping up to full bore by 22 psi

Well, I think There not damaged. How I checked them was to put 1 and 4 at TDC, both of them aligned with the top of the block and 2 and 3 are also stright with the block at TDC so I ASS.U.ME there ok. Any othere ways to tell if there bent besides pulling a pan?

The gravity thing is what most likely happend. Im going to call snow performance tomarow and ask a few questions. I thought I read somewere that the check valve is in the pump? Any how I took the head to my machine shop to fix it, hopfully I can fix all this. Iv been looking into a solinoid...

The highest octane we have here in AZ safford in fact, is 91. 30 psi on my holset dnt like plan 91 so boost juice is a must. I have the head off. The bottem end looks ok. However the head dont look very healthy. Ill look up on syphoning on google. Never heard of that term.

I Have a stage 2 Snow performance water/meth kit. I have been running it for about 6 months with NO issues. The last past 2 months I have been doing an AWD SWAP on my gst. After 2 months of it sitting and with the rear end up on jack stans. I went to start it. and it dosnt wana start, had no...

Thanks guys, I can eliminate the problem coming from the tuned ecu. Helps alot. Looks like im going to have to keep trying to fitgure this out. Once again thank you.

I was hoping it got erased or bad tank of gas. Thats all i can think of right now, i cleaned the awd tank put new gas in it but it might still have some bad gas in it. Smells alil funky lol. thanks for the 2nd opinion wisemen. If anyone else agrees please chime in.

Ok, heres the deal/background. Iv been doing an awd swap on the 99 gst. Iv had it tuned and it ran beautifull. Iv been using ECUFLASH for over 2 yrs...Over the 2 MONTHS THAT I HAD MY BATTERY UNPLUGED, Is it POSSIBLE for the tune to be somehow erased and back to stock? Its not starting and its...

I had my XTD stage 4 with their flywheel for 3500 miles now. Let me tell you this thing grabs like a champ, hasnt slipped once (which is very impressive). Has about 5 track days and 100s of pulls on the highway and its holding great so far (knock on wood). Im in the processes of my AWD swap and...

Wow thanks guys! I really thought that the 12cm was the issue, but if there making those numbers with the tiny 9cm housing then heck lol. Ill turn the boost up a few psi watch out for knock and see what it dose. Max ill be running on the hx35 is 30 to 33 psi wasnt to sure to turn it up. But now...

Heres the log of the 3rd gear pull, AFR was not loging. Had an external wideband hooked on the tail pipe. AFR was around 11.5 to 11.9. To see log go to data, filter, tps over 80

At peak torque its around 5 then advances to 12 by redline? Bad?

Timing was 5-6 degrees peak toque dropping to 12-13 degrees at redline. AFR were around 11.8 to 12.0 (using 50/50 meth injection) no knock :) Pump type was 91 octane. Using the 7 blade wheel. At 32xx lbs, my best trap speed was 112mph at tucson AZ Import face off. Any more info needed just ask...

Hey holset users. What to see if anyone can enlighten me on some choices. I have a hx35 t3 12cm twin scroll with t/s manifold. At 25 psi I only made 348hp 373tq....I was wonder if a 16cm t/s housing would be a better choice? Also would spool DRASTICALLY change? Every holset user I see compared...

At 25 psi, I would think over 400 too. My methanol is snow performance stage 2 with there brand of 50/50 mix. Turbo dont smoke, rebuild by JMX JUSTEN :D!! My timing is in the log(look for tps over 90%) I do have a jmf smim and a bbk 75mm tb waiting to be installed. Gota figure out what to do...

Well I got the car tuned a few weeks ago and was a little disappointed. Im running a newly rebuild holset hx35 12cm t/s with t/s manifold, All supporting mods at 25 psi with alcohol injection on pump. Only made 348hp n 373 lbs. From what I read this is very low. Im thinking cams or turbo is the...

Mech timing is at 5 degrees. How dose compression ratio affect hp as in 7.8 to 1 compared to a 9.0 to 1? Maybe thats why my setup is low as I am on stock pistons still.

Dyno sheetLog(tps at 98%) afr at 11.5, 91 pump gas 50/50mix meth injectionsetup in profileAlso the cames are installed straight up. I thought BC 272 cams were a good choice but you guys might be right. has Stock intake manifold too which is another reason why power drops off in higher RPMS

Thanks urbansmoker, makes me fell alittle better about my setup :) I was very concerned when I saw these holset at least 400hp, compared to mine 350hp. Im on the stock block still(not for long) then ill give her what she wants.

Didnt want to make a new thread on the same topic. Just got the car tuned last weekend. setup was a hx35 twin scroll housing/ts manifold, meth injection at 25 psi...ONLY MADE 348HP 373LBS??? Thats evo 3 turbo status??? No boost leaks or exhaust leaks. Any ideas...its the 7 blade too.

In order to find the leak and stop guessing your gonna have to take off the timing cover and put dye in it. Like what colt4g63 said. Might take a little bit of effort but it beats having a puddle on the floor :) let us know

It looks like it was ran with pure tap water, I wouldn't flash it because it would break up all the rust causing something to leak like you said. However i would run a water hose though it (NOT A CLEANER) just in case there's a big chunk. Then use antifreeze and water wetter.

If the PCV needs to be change, spend the 8$ and buy an OEM one. Ive bought 3 different pcv from checkers, Napa and auto zone. they all leaked :(

I highly recommend the NRG blow off valve, almost like a greddy type s but improved. and for a lot lower price! Iv been running mine for over a year at 28 psi on a holset. Iv done plenty of boost leak test and i never get one coming from my bov.
