^ key word "data"I do not give a damn about what DATA you have. I had the car physically sitting in front of my face. If you guys spent as much time working on your cars as you do trolling these forums you could probably take your car apart and put it back together BLINDFOLDED.And ask me if...
Oh you tried to help me?My bad. I guess I took your comments the wrong way.Wait a sec, you didn't try to help at all. Just annoying comments that make you sound like a stuck up ####head that sits behind a computer screen flexing his e peen because his shit says 5k posts and "dsm...
Oh noes no theories to help me with my super complicated problemz?!See you guys talk all this shit and then when I make a video that makes you feel stupid and you get all booty hurt because none of you were right, but that's okay. There's still dsmtalk, dsmnation, dsmalliance, dallasdsm, ECT...
I compared the 3G wheels to the 2g GSX wheels today and they look very similar but are actually VERY different. The spokes on the 2g GSX wheels are more straight from the center to the outer rim. The 3g wheels spokes are more rounded and dome shaped to the outer rim.3G wheels don't fit.. -...
Noooooooooope they are at my buddys house - Didnt wanna put nasty ass wheels in my car :PJust saw your ? earlier - Yes I did get the car weighted and alignment.I am going to do it again after the new wheels/tires go on.I am going to buy spacers and give these wheels back for some other 2g...
They have pass side too, or did you even look?How can you say they suck when its for an end cap? An end cap is an end cap?Or are there plastic welds that will probably break, and little bearings somewhere on them that dont spin as freely as oem? Good luck looking through the mess that is the...
Sigh okay, brb.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtdJm13yeGYBest I can do for now, sorry guys.Did not spot any markings other than what youll see on the video. Tomorrow when I take the wheels OFF I will hopefully find more significant markings.
The weather today was still terrible but the rains looks to have stopped so I can post a video tomorrow if need be.I did go snap some pictures and ill upload them for now.Do you guys see anything wrong?Thanks for all the help thus far and sorry if I offended you <3
That first picture is exactly what mine looked like when I put them on. Didnt even TRY to roll it around, already knew it wasnt gonna fly.With the spacers do you notice any difference in the ride or anything?
Okay snowy my dude, TOMORROW. I will make a grand ole video, and check back in because guys - This just may be BRAKING news (lol). Ill even take a front wheel off and try to put the tsi wheel on and show you why it wont clear.I honestly would have already done it if it hadnt been pouring all...
I knew itd be something stupid with the wheels or tires. I did an inspection upon installing and just recently read all about the suspension and control arms in the FSM. Everything was fine and nothing has made noise or is rocking around.This is the kind of info I needed. Ive been trying to...
^ stock GSX and 3g - Not 2gaWell its only touched by a few MM in the rear, not smashed against.The differences in 2ga/2gb adn TSI/GSX combined with large tires is whats making it touch.Going to either A) Buy smaller tires before installing them OR B) buy 1" spacers.
Okay you misunderstood me buddy.I said that the guy I bought the wheels from said, the wheels came off of an 01 Eclipse, BUT the 01 Eclipse owner got them from a 2g.Please read before posting thanks,
The front brakes are correct. I took the stock rims and attempted to put them back on and physically saw them touch the caliper. GSX wheel went on and cleared it fine and it brakes like a beast.Idk what you guys are on, theres nothing wrong. Everything matches the FSM and nothing is broken...
I put the old wheels on, they ran into the calipers. It was extra annoying since I had painted the calipers.It is not just one side. Both rear passenger and rear driver side knuckles were touching the wheels.I asked if they were FOR SURE oem rims and he said they came off a 01 eclipse. Didnt...
I dont understand how anything could be wrong since I have been driving around with the tsi rims for months with no issues.The GSX wheels have 215/50's on 17" rims, the TSi's tires are 205/55 on 16" rims.I think it may just be because my car is a Talon and you guys are used to Eclipses...
Yeah! Hang on guys! Ill go grab a pic.Thanks for quick replies and willingness to help me :)The tires are 215's btw.brbOh and no the car is not lowered.It used to be lowered 2" when I purchased it from the PO but have since put new oem struts/springs on the rear from another 2ga...
I actually have a 96 TSI. I upgraded to GSX brakes on the front and my TSi wheels did not fit over the new calipers.I upgraded the front to GSX wheels to fit the calipers, but on the rear the tires are too wide/large and touch my control arms. Had to take them off and run the TSi wheels on...
:banghead: You're* :tease:He needs a bigger turbo to run more boost SAFELY. A 16g can run 16 lbs like a t25 can run 9 lbs - EASILY. DSM Link will also help him run higher boost so he can see EVERYTHING going on with the car. He can run pulls and check the knock count to see exactly where his...
Might be causing more boost to push through your boost leaks. Might be you spinning the tires?For all of you recommending him keep the MBC on, youre not very smart - But thats okay.Regardless of what the car can HANDLE, why not be more preservative? Sure it can handle 14 psi, but wont last...
The only way to get ahold of a new 2gb talon front is dsmgraveyard for 650$ shipped :barf:I paid 200$ for the 2gb front/rear bumper and the side blades - All rare parts so 200$ was worth it to me.You could probably get 200$ for the bumper alone from just about anyone. If theres anyone else...
Went to my friends house today to purchase and install 2g GSX brakes, which are an upgrade for my FWD brakes, plus my rotors were a bit warped causing a rough brake. Well youd hink it should just be a 'boink' and 'boink' the new brakes are on and im cruising back home :thumb:.. not quite :|...

Make sure when you get the car running that you change the timing belt ASAP, along with all the other belts. Not driving the car enough has similar effects on a car with a lot of miles. Weather and other things are taking its toll on the car whether its driven or not.Timing Belt

I really hate people's sour ass tone when it comes to people asking questions that may have been answered already? Have you looked into the classifieds on this website? You would know its a jumbled up cluster #### thats near impossible to find anything youre looking for even with the search...
Sounds like your fuel pump was rewired. Bust out your FSM and look at the wiring diagram for it and wire it back to factory spec. Should take you about 5 minutes. After your wiring is all back to 0 on the fuel pump, then figure out why youre not getting 12v to your starter. Have you tested your...
^ What?Someones a little salty...I will measure it today, at the time of posting it was 3 am... Like someone said, im asking about the trimming/cutting of the bumper to make it sit flush in the length of the mouth.
Searched classifies, craigslist, ebay (Dont trust item descriptions), google.WTF? Where do I find these in new or like new condition with all the original bulbs in them?
Im looking for that flush look when it comes to the front mount.Says 29x11x3 but im not too sure how that will look on the front bumper.Anyone have a pic or personal experience on the fit of these FM with the 2gb bumper? Is there any trimming involved with the front bumper and does it sit...
