  1. Box of Misc Parts, Intercooler, MAS, O2 housing, Valve Cover etc

    Any interest? I just want it to go to a good home, make me any half crazy offer! There is a metal recycler coming through on Friday, if there isn't any interest, I may just send it off with them.
  2. Box of Misc Parts, Intercooler, MAS, O2 housing, Valve Cover etc

    Dumping my DSM stuff that I have amassed for my GSX. Will fit all turbo DSMs, Talon TSI Lasers etc. Must take all of it. Tons of misc parts including:1st Gen intercooler (good condition) 2nd Gen ported O2 sensor housing 1st Gen Hacked MAS (unknown condition) 4G63 Valve cover (good condition) A...
  3. FS: OEM RX-7 FD Rims with Hoosier Slicks

    Sounds good, hit me up with a PM if you want to check them out
  4. FS: OEM RX-7 FD Rims with Hoosier Slicks

    As I mentioned earlier, I'm very busy at this point, and have very little time so unless you really make it worth my while, I would prefer to sell it locally ( hence the low price). I'm in the Pinole/Hercules area, so anyone interested, feel free to PM me to set something up.
  5. FS: OEM RX-7 FD Rims with Hoosier Slicks

    pm replied. I have been working crazy hours lately, and will continue to do so for the near future, so would prefer to sell to someone local at this point.
  6. FS: OEM RX-7 FD Rims with Hoosier Slicks

    They came on a FD I recently bought, don't know the specifics about them. They have R3S03 imprinted on them if that means anything?
  7. looking for a part

    One other thing you may want to check is if it is a bad ground to your gauge cluster. I had the exact same problem, and I would keep on messing with the sending unit, and it would work for a while before crapping out again. Finally, I had an unrelated problem with the gauge cluster, and in...
  8. Sacramento Raceway Wednesday Night

    I'd like to hear what you've done to be getting close to 40 MPG with one of our cars! Care to elaborate?
  9. Who here has been to an open track day?

    I've been to Thunderhill Raceway in Willows twice in the last 6 months for open track days. I always offer it up to others in the North West forum, but out of the 4 times I've been to an open track event, the closest thing I've see to DSMs are Evos. Too bad, because once you get out on that...
  10. NCDA Grip n Slip Video Thunderhill Raceway

    Sorry, should have mentioned, you will need the latest divx codec to watch the movie! Thought I had put this in the video section, but it was late last night...... Most of the footage is shot either from inside my GSX or my friends AE86.
  11. NCDA Grip n Slip Video Thunderhill Raceway

    Pretty fun event. Here is a video I thew together from some in-car footage my friend and I took. Not sure how long Comcast bandwidth will last, so my apologies in advance if the link dies out.http://home.comcast.net/~olfanatic/ThillFW2.avi
  12. Cheap Track Day, Thunderhill Jan. 15th, 2005

    A) You will have fun if you make it B) You won't find a cheaper track event C) DSMs can turn!I went to this event last year, and am signed up for this year as well. Last year was great since this event is split into two groups, drift and grip. Most of the people were drifting, which...

  14. what is the rarest car you have owned or coudl of owned??

    The rarest car I could have bought was a 198x Datsun 280zx convertible. Sweetest potential for a car I have ever seen, and I've never seen another one like it since (That isn't a chop top) I could have bought it for $1300....Still kicking myself for not picking it up to this very day.Right...
  15. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    Wow, post got revived from the dead!TERBOLASER: Like Babell2 said, you should be able to find the piping at any hardware store. My friend did soldering to join most of the pipes, I'm not sure if you plan on doing that or notBabell2: How do you like the piping you did? How long ago...
  16. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    Leet,What path would short route piping take for this type of intercooler? I'll stick with this piping for the time being and see what gains I get from it, but it would only take a few hours to fabricate another route, and I'm open to suggestions.
  17. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    In terms of the routing, this seemed like the most logical route. I'll let you know how it works out for me.
  18. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    Are you referring to the silicone couplings, or the copper ones? Either way, the silicone ones I either got from a trucking company or E-bay, and the copper ones my plumber friend got for me, I assume they probably are available at any home depot etc.
  19. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    Almost done with my project. I just have to fix a boost leak from the turbo outlet and reassemble. I am pretty impressed with it. It was lighter than the steel exhaust piping that I was going to use, and it only took a few hours to fabricate with my friends help. I figure that I must have...
  20. The longest time you've had your DSM on the road

    Never farther than I can have it towed back....
  21. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    Ok,Lets keep the conversation friendly and productive. I have reached the point in my modification level that detonation has to be quelled. I know its not listed, but I have a decent mod list to support a big 16G. My car is modded towards being a good all around car for road-racing...
  22. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    Thanks for all the replies, this is great information, keep it coming! My friend is the plumber, so I'm going to leave it up to him to figure out the details, but he said that he could make it ~2.25 all the way through. Is copper heavier than steel? The copper tubing is fairly thin-walled...
  23. Using Copper Pipe for Intercooler Piping??

    I just got done mounting up my custom intercooler to my bumper, and now I have to route the piping. I was planning on having an exhaust shop fabricate it, but my friend who is a plumber said it would be possible to do it with copper piping he has laying around. The idea is feasible, and will...
  24. Aight Guys Does This Sound Like A Good Deal?

    Well,Sounds like your friend is set on it. I hope that it works out for you guys. I bought a 93 Tsi from CT, and it didn't require any additional parts to pass CA smog, but it varies from state to state.Even in the best case scenario, this is definately going to be a project car...
  25. Aight Guys Does This Sound Like A Good Deal?

    I saw that one on CL. The guy has been trying to hock it for some time now. Just off what I have seen posted, I wouldn't buy it. Granted, any DSM you find for 1k or so is going to have problems, this one bothers me.If you can't get it into gear, could be something other than the...

  29. Bad Gas Mileage [Merged 9-6]

    My car ranges between 20-24 MPG 50/50 highway city. Funny thing was when I was out of state I was getting 24-28 MPG. I guess I chalk it up to crappy 91 octane MTBE garbage we get in CA.One other note, although the fuel capacity is 15.9, don't ever try to run it that low. I ran my car...
  30. General Crazy knock under low throttle. Has anyone had that?

    Well, keep us posted, and let me know where you find that MCCC. I searched around a handful of auto parts stores and have so far come up empty-handed.
  31. General Crazy knock under low throttle. Has anyone had that?

    I haven't heard of having to do that before. Hopefully I don't have as much trouble :D I heard that the sensor shouldn't be too tight or too loose, otherwise you get all kinds of knock. Anyone know exactly how tight it should be??
  32. General Crazy knock under low throttle. Has anyone had that?

    If you have high miles on the car, your knock sensor might be bad. I have a similar problem with my talon, and will be replacing the sensor within the next couple weeks. If it solves the problem, I'll report back.
  33. Incompetent Mechanics in Cali!!!

    Yep,Anything that you can do yourself, do it! I try and tackle as much as I can, and have learned a hell of a lot in the process ( What is the saying? DSM, making mechanics out of normal people since 1989) However, I did the timing belt once on a talon I had, and swore I'd never do it...
  34. Mini Steve-Tek Fuel System Upgrade- Installation and Review

    Actually, it was a brand new filter on there. The unimpressive results of a new filter were what led me to take the plunge and install this new systemYeah, I know oh too well about the garbage 91 octane we have out here. You know, with the cost of gas, it's probably about the same cost...
  35. Quiet Cat-Back???

    Use a resonator in place of the cat, your car will sound nearly stock with almost all the benefits of an open exhaust.:thumb:
  36. Mini Steve-Tek Fuel System Upgrade- Installation and Review

    No, it's not the typical " did this now I can crank up the boost!" post. ;)The upgrade ( upgrades the filter to the fuel rail portion)replaces a few points of restriction:1) low flowing Fuel filter 2) tiny hole on banjo bolt at top of filter 3) fuel rail fittingThe steve-tek...
  37. Mini Steve-Tek Fuel System Upgrade- Installation and Review

    In my quest to cure my car's lean condition, I started doing some research on how to get more fuel into my car. With a gas-hungry Big 16G, I was leaning out big time, to the point that I couldn't run higher than 10 lbs of boost without substantial knock, and even when I upgraded to 550's and a...
  38. Opinion on fuel rail adapter

    Hey Guys,I'm thinking about upgrading my fuel system, and I came across this part on DSMTrader that adapts the stock fuel rail to an AN6 fitting. I was planning to run stainless line from the fuel tank up to the filter, and use a K&N high flow AN6 filter. Is this a worthy part, or do you...
  39. Gas Gauge Stuck

    I'll definately put that on my to-muck-with list, thanks.
  40. Gas Gauge Stuck

    Ever since I purchased my 94 GSX, the Gas Gauge would intermittantly get stuck at 1/8 of a tank. It would work for a few tanks, then stick for a few more in exactly the same place- about an 1/8th of a tank. This last time it has been stuck for about 3 months, so I guess it is stuck there for...
