I just made some videos explaing and showing how to drain the fuel tank very easily. I know alot of people have needed this info before. I dont know where to post it. So heres a screen shot of my vids and channel on youtube. I just loaded them today.

Hey guys. Can someone please point me in the direction of a place that sells band clamps. I need one to connect my 16g to my 7cm hotside. Preferably an oem one. Thanks!

Had a pulley fail, shredded my timing belt on saturday. I took off the head and all my intake valves were bent. I have never taken a dsm engine completely apart and need to know the damage and any other advice offered. What a crappy weekend! Was just cruisin going 50 when it happened. Thanks in...

Like most of you with 2g dsms, my door handles keep breaking. The only ones to find are used or made from completely crap plastic. I heard metal handles or reinforced handles were made in the past, why aren't they still made? Well i am making some that WON'T break. If theres enough people, i can...

I need to remove the portion of the stock fuel return line that goes from the fpr to the metal fuel line. Basically the rubber hose section. It is old and has some holes in it. Its located by lower middle firewall. My question is what holds the rubber hose onto the metal part? I kinda can see...

I am looking for someone who can point me in the right direction please. I need a new 16g hotside and cant seem to find a vendor. Anyone have any good reviews to share? And please don't say turbolab. Ive had 2 in a row from them that were defective. The flapper arm on theirs slides in and out...

Do not, i repeat do not buy tdo5 7cm hot sides from turbolab america. I ordered one six months ago when some mani to turbo bolts seized in there. That one cost me 3 months of searching for a problem. I took it off to inspect and the casting edges had large burrs causing flapper to be stuck open...

Ok ill start by saying i have read every thread out there on this subject. My car is building 0 boost. I have a good perfect working boost gauge, did blt and not 1 leak anywhere. Wastegate works perfect, i tested it. Just put on a brand new hot side on my 16g turbo, turbo spins freely and is...

Ok i have been researching to no avail. Does anyone make a gasket for the 2g housing yet? Taking my head etc off soon and rounding up all the odds and ends. Thanks in advance.

What is a good, inexpensive laptop i can use for tuning only. I have the tactrix openport and am ready to tune my car. Thanks in advance. Is there a certain kind that works better or certain ones to look for? Tuning my blackbox ecu on my 98 gsx.

In the picture here if you look at the back of the compressor housing you see a half moon cut-out on the edge. My car is leaking air like crazy out of it when boost leak testing and while driving i can only hit about 5 lbs. Of boost. I have absolutely no other leaks. Im pretty sure its the seals...

I have what appears to be a leaking heater hose. It is one of the bigger hoses that runs to the firewall right under where the cruise control box would be. There are 2 big ones going in firewall side by side. What diameter are these? Thanks

I've been looking for a little while and can't find a diagram with the name. Or the name i would use so autozone understands me when i order 2 of em. Part number would be nice too. Its circled in green. Part of front suspension area. Thanks in advance.

Can anyone recommend a good cheap exhaust for a gsx. I have been checking but most posts related are from 2009 etc. I am talking 200 or less. My buddy has a good cheap one he got on ebay but he has a gst. Thanks in advance.

Will the j pipe from the 1g kit work on a 2g gsx? For a td05 turbo. The 2g one looks sweet but right now i can get the other j pipe they offer for cheap. Wondering if it will work with my 7" ets street setup. There is absolutely nothing talking about this that i could find. Thanks in advance.

I need to replace my lower injector seals and as alot of people know the felpro ones don't fit anything on a 4g63t. I am looking for a good kit with all seals and rings to put on my gsx. Can someone point me to a good place to order them from? Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

I just posted a video on you tube showing problems. Title is same as this post title. Lights dim when brake pushed. Gets brighter when going. The mpi relay was checked and its good, learned that on dsmtuners. Checked voltage at battery terminals while running. 13.8 - 14.1v. Checked every fuse in...

I was taking off my battery to remove the iac and clean it when i noticed a little rubber boot thing on top of my tranny. It seems to just pop in and out with ease. It is almost directly under my battery tray. What is this? And can i use this to fill my tranny fluid? I am going to be putting new...

I was inspecting my engine thoroughly today fixing some minor boost leaks and i found a part with the vacuum line not connected. It is almost directly under the throttle body elbow. Is silver, and looks alot like a 1g bov. I am curious what this is and what it does for my car. I tried finding...

I was at autozone yesterday getting stems for blts i am making and saw the universal throttle cable. Any one used one of these on a dsm? Results?

Thoroughly going through my engine bay i noticed this plug was unplugged. I circled the male and female parts in red. The wires shaping on the male part indicates it indeed went to this plug. I have no idea what it is. Whoever can identify it gets 5 cool points haha. Thanks in advance guys. It...

I have researched this all afternoon but no answers that apply to me. All stock motor, stock turbo. I replaced fuel filter. I will be doing blt and check for vacuum leaks as soon as i can. Car seems to be bogging as well. Sometimes will only go up to 4lbs boost. Other times will boost normal. I...

Does anyone know a good place that i can send my 98 gsx ecu in to get things like 2 step. Need one dialed in for 550 injectors and a 16g turbo. Seems like there should be a place that can just set it up for you and mail it back. I am a complete noob at tuning so this seems like a good option for...

Today i found a n/t plymouth laser with the 4g63 in it at a junkyard. Will the valve cover from that engine fit my 2g gsx? It is in almost new condition minus the 5 pounds of mouse poop on it haha. I bought it for ten bucks and am planning on sanding and painting it nice. Or should i just chuck...

Who has the evos here in town. I was just about to hit my exit off freeway when you guys pulled up to me. I wanted to romp on it with you guys but was running late to work.

Found a app called torque pro on google playstore. Turns your tab into a logger and has some other great features. I am gonna buy app and the bluetooth obd2 connector in the next week. Looks pretty sweet. I will do a write up on it after i try it out. Has anyone used this so far?

On way home from work last night car lost about half its electric power. I woke up and checked terminals. One was a tiny bit loose so i tightened it. Then drove to store down the road and the door locks dont work, windows dont work, dome lights and stereo also non functional. For some reason the...

Has anyone ever completely removed the rear quarter windows and replaced them withsomething else. Like a molded body piece or something like that. I was thinking of that possibility and could not find anything about it. I am not going to do that to my car but it does sound kind of interesting...

I am most thankful for my family and each day.

How many of you actually drive your dsm almost daily or daily? I boost every day on way home from work. Its the best.

When driving and coming to a stop i pull out of gear into neutral. The rpms drop to 2k but won't go lower. Then i give the gas pedal a quick tap and it goes back to the normal 900 i have it set at. It's not too bad just a little irritating. Can you guys give me some info on what causes this and...

Yup i am looking for one of those. Pm me. Thanks.

jimsgsx submitted a new DSM Profile :1998 GSXRead more about this vehicle here...

I have been researching as usual while sitting at work. Trying to expand my dsm knowledge. What upgrades do you absolutely have to have to run nos on a 2g gsx? I will most likely never do this but who knows i might. Just curious if you can just slap nos on your car and away you go. If anyone has...

Just messing around with some stuff and trying to make some cool pictures. I couldn't capture the bright colors of rainbow but the idea was good. The bottom pic was just a pic of my car. I created the entire background. Still working on it. Trying for a creepy setting.

I recently did the pcv delete egr block, and put new o rings and new fuel rail. I smelled a little gas but figured it was the little bit that spilled just airing out. Well this morning i smelled it again so i pulled over to inspect it. Where the stock fpr connects to the fuel rail i hear a tiny...

Just like the title says. I would like to keep my wipers working but i would like it moved for extra space in engine bay. Found one thread with one reply saying you can't do it and that doesn't satisfy me.

I have wondered what this part is for a while. But my car is running great right now and don't want to mess with anything. I found this pic of it on google. It is right in front of battery under the cruise control actuator valve looking thing. On the picture it says it is a mit controller. I...

Was just sitting here at work doing nothing but reading different things on dsmtuners.com when something out of the corner of my eye caught my attention. Where i work i happen to have my own tv with a live security camera feed. I saw two guys jiggling my handles and attempting to break into my...

The very first bolt hole on passenger side of exhaust manifold is stripped. Well not actually on the manifold but the bolt hole for it on engine. I took off exhaust mani to put in a new gasket and some copper spray on there and me and my dsm bud noticed it just kept turning when trying to...

I am changing the color of my trim because after getting a new paint job it just doesn't look right. The only part of removal i am having trouble with is the trim that goes around radio, heater controls etc. In the middle dash. I am hoping i won't have to remove the whole dash just to get it...

Lets get some stories about how many heads turn when you drive by in your dsm. Since i have painted my car orange me and the wife have noticed everyone and their mother is turnin to take a look at my gsx. Just today i was pullin out of safeway and every person in the parking lot i drive by just...

Someone please tell me what this part is. Its mounted on a little bracket on drivers side of engine. On side of intake manifold. Has a green wire and a red wire. Was inspecting my engine and green wire is broke. Red wire kind of stripped. Thanks.

I am going to seafoam my 2g gsx this week and have searched repeatedly. I have only got conflicting posts and read alot of arguements so far. Can someone run me through how to seafoam my engine, valves, tb, injectors, etc. Or point me to a good instructional site from a reliable souce. Thanks.

Mine has a seal starting to leak and need a new one. Thanks guys.

I think this is the fpr solenoid. Im pretty sure of it. But what is the little handle knob thing on the right. I can turn it either way but don't really want to mess with it until i understand what it does. Can someone explain this to me please. Thanks.

So my car has been bogging badly and i've been checking everything with no luck. It finally threw up the p0443 code. Yes i have searched for 2 days researching it but no one has posted a solution with a good ending result. I took out the pcv valve from top of valve cover. Blew and sucked on that...

Just got my gsx back this afternoon and i must say it looks pretty dang good. Already have gotten many compliments and lots of rubberneckers. The color is omaha orange. I have always loved this color. Its amazing how a new paint job can make you realize that your tires and rims look like they...

Im getting my gsx back from getting painted and i cannot figure out how to post a picture. Id like to put some pics up for you guys to check out tomorrow. Thanks in advance for the help.

Can anyone point me in the direction of some good seat covers that actually fit the 2gs nicely? I dont want those baggy ones that droop all over. Not looking to spend an arm and a leg but looking for some with color options to match new paint job. Thanks.
