    2G Using stock GSX banjo bolt on 3000GT VR4 brake caliper?

    Yep, still am. I made posted pics of the installation on my build sheet sometime ago. I also later installed 3kgt rear calipers with the 284mm disc but kept the stock 2g GSX master cylinder. One of the best upgrades and it was fairly budget-y.

    Mitsubishi 'Itsabitshiti' Eclipse

    I highly suggest you look into fitting a front mount Pat, look at some of my custom intake pipe setup if you want to get a better idea of how it will look. The 42 16G is fine but 16 psi on it will be waaay more than 10 psi on the T25, and the T25 already heat soaks the side mount if you stay on...

    Mitsubishi 'Itsabitshiti' Eclipse

    You got "annoyed" by the screamer pipe?!?! Bro. come on, it's the BEST sound mod you can do to a DSM and it frees up a bit more horsepower :D.I can't see from the pic, but is that a "42" or "47" casting on the 16g? You're gonna have to ditch the stock side mount cooler now and run a front mount.

    ECUflash 1999 2G DSM ECU in 1G

    What do you mean by patch harness? You need to look at both a 1G GSX pinout and a 1999 pinout then configure all the pins in the right places. Keep in mind a 2G ecu will want to see a 2G knock sensor signal. Also the Cam angle sensors are different between a 1G and 2G, which would mean you would...

    FMIC piping

    I don't know how to weld, but what I do is I just measure everything up and use stencils to get a very good idea of how the piping will run. What I do is I model up the piping and curved sections in CAD (Solidworks) following the dimensions given on the website I'm purchasing the pipes off. I...

    Greetings from Germany

    Greetings and congrats! Looks like you are no stranger to the DSMs.That '97 GSX AUTOMATIC looks like a very very good find. I can only imagine how much euros the Austrian wanted for it. Take good care of it and do some good mods.

    "Lucky" Sevens Talon

    Well, all good things come to an end. I had to sell the Talon, my dream car #2, to a good friend of mine. "Had" maybe isn't the best word, but let's say the most practical and right decision was to do it this way and now. Didn't want to part with it, but also didn't want to let it keep rotting...

    "Lucky" Sevens Talon

    Wow it's been almost 2 years yet again from my last update. Kind of goes to show how suddenly things start to... stop breaking.... Once you replace or repair everything!! Happy to say I haven't blown up the engine yet and I've learned how to tune with ECMlink both for MAF and Speed Density. It...

    General Flat-shifting (NoLiftToShiftin') potentially causing detonation and fuel-air mixture getting ignited prematurely?

    I just checked some of my logs where I was shifting thru gears with NLTS and yes we do use fuel cut to maintain the target RPMs between shifts, however it cuts fuel then re-adds to keep the motor revved so the effect is the same. Even if you cut spark and running wasted spark as is our system...

    General Flat-shifting (NoLiftToShiftin') potentially causing detonation and fuel-air mixture getting ignited prematurely?

    Had the pleasure of speaking to possibly the best/biggest tuner in my country this weekend at our national JapFest. We touched upon a few subjects including flat shifting.Now, I wasn't certain if we were talking in general or for specific applications, but his general opinion was that...

    So what are you working on that’s NOT your DSM?

    Talon's been on the back burner even with its rusty rockers. I should be shot for not taking care of it first and wasting all my money on this piece of shit ass car but I took up a big project and I ain't stopping 'till it's done. Full on resto-mod on this R33 GTST Skyline is underway. I got...

    What did you do to your DSM today?

    Just came back from 6 month abroad filming street view, good ole Talon fired right up no questions axed and brought me home. Gave her some fresh Motul fifteen dubya fiddy and a good rip. Honestly coming from a 2022 car and jumping in an old car like a DSM is quite the jarring experience but hwen...

    2G Talk some sense into me, stick with my e316G or upgrade to an HX35

    Thanks for your input Kevin. Those are some interesting results. Just based on the dyno graph alone it looks like the 35 is doing better in all aspects compared to a 20G which is arguably the bigger brother of the 16G. And when I load your log and mine side to side and compare, if we assume all...

    2G Talk some sense into me, stick with my e316G or upgrade to an HX35

    Howdy folks,Disclaimers: Last good 3rd gear pull log is attached to this thread and my profile is up to date.I've lived with the 16G for awhile now and I do like it on my daily driver. The car gets beat on all year round and I've tuned it to run reliably on 91 octane equivalent. I don't have...

    Sincere thanks to all the DSMtuners members

    Tell you, if it wasn't for this forum and all the awesome people sharing their knowledge and ideas and how-tos, I would never have managed to maintain and modify my DSM for this long. Been part of this community for nearly 10 years already and it's been an amazing platform to learn, share...

    1996 RVR super sports gear is similar to 1G or 2G engine?

    Marty's dead on the money, and I'm sure Hiroshi may chime in here with his exquisite knowledge on JDM vehicles if he sees this thread.From my knowledge, the RVR simply has an Evo 3 motor, it even has the same intake manifold. The cams may differ but you need to check the stamps on them and...

    Boost leak test basics

    Notable mention seeing as how you have a journal bearing turbo: If you are BLTing from the turbo's compressor inlet which is the standard way to test, be mindful that some of that compressed air WILL leak past your journal bearings, through the oil return pipe and into the crank case. It's a...

    2G Euro Eclipse 2G, need explaination regarding engine component, muffler and intake

    Bulgaria? :DSteve is right, the black box is simply a resonator to further reduce intake noises which honestly come on, we all live for that sucking noise. But even if you removed it, you wouldn't notice a thing. If you have the parts and fabrication skills, you could use metal pipes instead...

    EVO3 16g dyno results

    Okay, I feel better now. I've been tuning this car for a whole year trying to squeeze every last bit of power out of it while keeping it as a reliable daily. I guess around 300 awhp would be the ballpark for shitty fuel and similar mods then. I WISH I had access to E85 but it's not offered in my...

    EVO3 16g dyno results

    Man this thread is something else. I keep coming back to it as well as other e316g setups and I just can't understand if I'm doing something wrong or if I'm underestimating my car and results. When you first compared your real dyno results to your ECMlink estimate, do you remember what...

    1G Eclipse N/T

    Hah, yeah I'm also currently working in France (classic Bulgarian activity) to raise some more money for these cars 🤣I actually like the wheels you have currently. They look sort of retro and fit the 1G in my opinion. Maybe paint the central section black also and it may look even better...

    2G Dropped a bolt in the engine bay!

    Classic lower cruise control box bolt. It's notorious for f***ing right off like that. Once happened to me and the damn thing wedged itself right at the fuel filter bracket but I was so blind I kept looking below and not seeing it wedged in there.I would suggest a magnetic stick, preferably...

    2G O2 housing dump

    Open dump is very beneficial and proven to increase horsepower PROVIDED you have a way to take advantage of it such as having tuning options. To put it simply, as soon as the gate starts opening (getting on boost), the majority of the exhaust starts dumping right out the gate/screamer which...

    1G Eclipse N/T

    I believe Bastard's comment was a joke about how a mere 200 hp is gonna be a nightmare to drive and maintain, also I am ASSUMING OP is going to be turboing his GS, I see that he is from Romania and he might have a 6 bolt in his 1G. over 180 hp on a 2L DOHC 4-banger is Honda territory, only for...

    Mitsubishi 'Itsabitshiti' Eclipse

    The stock DSM base timing is 5 deg, and it also has 5 deg idle timing. The EVO 8 uses 8 deg of idle timing but I do not know how much their base is, probably 5 as well. On a 2G even with DSMlink we cannot change base timing since it's hard coded into the ECU. What I did was run the 8 deg of idle...

    Mitsubishi 'Itsabitshiti' Eclipse

    Good stuff Pat. FYI you can find Chinese GM 3bar MAP replicas everywhere for like 10 bucks, they work the exact same; that's what I got for mine. I also got a used IAT sensor off a 1984-1990 Jeep Cherokee / Wrangler. Those use the SAME exact scale as the GM IATs from that era, in fact the sensor...

    2G Folks with big FMIC and/or cooling issues, how did you deal with keeping temps down? [2G GSX]

    Ever since going 16G, 3" core FMIC on a 2gb Talon bumper and a moderate tune, the car has lived in the 95C-103C* range on a daily basis. She warms up super quick and stays hot no matter hwat. Also running a 1.1 bar cap, a good water-coolant mixture and AC fan set to come on if I push the AC...

    2G MD304933 knock sensor will work with a 2g GST?

    Jason, I'm not saying that's wrong but I've seen equal amounts of confirmation about using an 8 sensor in a 2G and working as well as those that said it didn't work, and by work I mean wrong frequency ranges, extra phantom knock, missing real pinging etc.Is there a credible source which proves...

    ECMlink Question About Running Wideband While Deleting Rear O2

    Can confirm Daniel explained it spot on. Also I recommend finding a fitting rubber grommet (without a hole) and gluing it with some RTV in the hole where the factory rear O2 cable passed through the chassis. Unless you want water to get on your carpet and floor. As for the pin, for a 2G ECU it's...

    2G Sunroof Glass - no longer available from Mitsu!!

    Update, the sunroof frame has been fixed. Using an exacto knife I cleaned off all the old polyurethane glue off the glass. I then fully cleaned off all the rust on the metal frame, and had a small 1/2 inch square piece of metal welded at the place where it was too corroded and holes showing...

    ECMlink Car wants to stall at cold idle, full speed density setup

    Alright, it APPEARS it fixed itself on its own, however I have slight suspicions it was due to too rich idle cells between 1000-1500 RPM at idle. I went and changed the 2 main ones from [60][65] to [58.5][66.5] and dropped the surrounding cells by -1.Today I fired her up, it was by far the...

    ECMlink Car wants to stall at cold idle, full speed density setup

    Thanks Marty. That's interesting, in that last log it took 100 seconds to enter closed loop at around 86*F. However, you mentioned you're simulating NB. Now I'm starting to suspect if this behavior could be due to a weird front O2 going bad, lazy or something else? I'm still running a stock...

    ECMlink Car wants to stall at cold idle, full speed density setup

    You might be onto something. I also noticed that, prior to this problem appearing, I had set my ISC to perfectly hover around 30-32 at idle accessories off 800RPM, but after the issue started, I noticed it now rests at 38, which means it's trying to open up to compensate for lack of air...

    ECMlink Car wants to stall at cold idle, full speed density setup

    I tried tweaking the CoolantTempFuelAdj to give it more fuel when cold and also tweaked the FastIdleMTISCPos a tad. Made no real difference. I just compared both cold start logs and the car attempts to stall EXACTLY 77 seconds after cold start. Also, both times it is EXACTLY 25 seconds after...

    EVOscan EVOSCAN Coolant Temperature Inverted

    First off put back your OEM sensor. I've done extensive testing on non-OEM sensors and they just are not good and give false readings. Always look for an OEM CTS even if it's used.Secondly, EvoScan is weird with Mitsubishis, and usually you need to be using the "CoolantTempScaled" option...

    2G Transmission Myth?

    All EU DSMs came with the N/A 4G63 and identical chassis configuration as the US GS-T. There was never a turbo DSM sold in Europe. The FWD manual trans on our EU GS is physically identical to the GS-T one, however its code is F5M31. Allegedly they have "weaker"? internal gearsets, but I have...

    Kind of off topic but thinking of getting another degree just so I can help build custom parts for our cars

    From my experience, if you graduate with a mechanical engineering degree and want to be an actual engineer, your best bet is to go work for a big company right away so you can put all those fresh formulas and theory to good use. Personally I didn't do that, and all the formulas of calculating...

Now as temps got lower, around 35F ambient, I have noticed the car has issues trying to stall after a cold...
