Ok I replaced the efi/mpi relay and its still doing it. I’m totally lost at this point is there any advice anyone can give me? :(:(:(

Ok I ordered a new mpi relay and it will be here in 2-3 days, the mpi relay is getting REALLY hot like can’t keep your finger on it for more than 5 seconds hot, so I’m almost sure that it’s either a bad ground or the mpi relay itself so which grounds should I check?

Update: went and had my alternator bench tested and it’s good so that’s a factor checked off

Ok so I just got back from vacation and i went to take it for a drive and this time only the cel came on no brake and battery flashing so definitely a short/ecu issue became of the repetitive mpi relay clicking, I pulled my Ecu and it looks fine no leakage that I can see, what would be the next...

Not sure never had the bad alternators tested, just replaced them and the car charged fine again, could be something grounding out? There’s definitely a relay going off in the dash somewhere which has to do with the cel cuz it clicks when it goes on and off

Also I keep hearing a clicking in the dash

After driving my very spirited on Friday night the brake and battery light started to flash(not flicker) I know that means my alternator is going out because it has happened twice already:ohdamn: anyway when I would go to neutral and slow down so it would idle down the cel would come on and the...

Oh my :p

I had a part upside down, the little piece that goes after the bearing and before the little brass half moon inside the bearing housing ROFLSilly me lol

making a 16g/20g hybrid and I can’t get the exhaust wheel/shaft all the way in, it’s super close but it won’t go in the last few millimeters is there something I’m doing wrong? I’ve go it past the seal but it’s still too far out

i currently have a 98 gst with 12k miles on the rebuilt motor it is stock internals except cams, I’ve been looking for a gsx for a while to swap my motor into, I was mainly looking for a gsx with a blown motor so it would be cheaper but I found a gsx for sale about 300 miles from me that runs...

What is your question exactly?

I started my car today after making some changes on dsmlink earlier today and it was hard to start then I was running super Rich so I plugged the computer in and all my changes I have ever made are gone everything is back to default. what happened and can I get it back?

Update I started it this morning and it wasn’t making the noise so now I’m confused

On my way home from work and downshifted to third then second normal driving went around the corner and heard a whining from my engine bay. Got home and this is the noise it’s making, what happened?

how Rare are 2g dsm’s painted in a dark Plum Pearl? I looked through all paint codes and only the 1998 talon and 1999 eclipse have the option for this paint code from what I found. I was playing forza and the talon had purple as one of the manufacturer color options and I was like that isn’t an...

I Couldn’t tell ya man I have to sit pretty far leaned back and it’s slid as far back as they can go as well. But ur a lot shorter than me so i really don’t know. I don’t have harnesses either

Update: I’m returning them and buying another brand of slim fans, maybe CX racing im not sure yet

Plugged the old fan back in and it runs fine so it’s defiantly a fan issue. Do these mishimoto fans pull more than 30 amps ?? Or did I get messed up fans ?

I bought 2 mishimoto slim fans and hooked one of them up(the cooling fan) and everyone time it turns on it blows the 30amp fuse in the engine bay fuse box. I’ve turned the fans on, on dsmlink and by letting the car idle till they kicked on, it blew the fuse both times I only Hooked the passenger...

I’m putting it in my car so no

Trying to take passenger window out of my donor car has no battery and window is rolled all the way up, how do I get it out?

It didnt do it before though?

Yah everything works correctly it just drags a little bit all the time then makes a worse grinding noise when u turn sharp left but not when u do a gentle left and like I said the whole parking brake isn’t dragging only a small portion of the whole thing maybe 15-20% and it’s not like it’s on...

I also wrote a mark on the area the parking brake expands into (dont know the name) the regular brakes aren’t dragging

I drew a line with sharpie down the whole rotor and the only place it’s making contact is a small portion of the parking brake not even the whole thing, I’m so confused because it gets so loud when I turn left only and just barely touches when I drive straight you can barely hear it.

Sidenote, it grinds super bad when I turn sharp left what could that be? It also didn’t do this before i took the old rotor off

i replaced my rear rotors and now my parking brake is dragging on the rear right wheel. it drags on the new rotor and the old rotor. What should I do to fix this?

Oh my This thread I suuuper old I decided to go with gold motegi mr135’s lol 18x9.5 +25offset

U might wanna try the mazda forums

Just crush it for scrap

The vinyl is really nice but I haven’t had them in the hot summer with no a/c so i might regret it later. They hold me in super nice compared to the stock seats. They were pretty hard to mount my dad helped me with all of it because I’m not a good fabricator. The seats are way skinnier than the...

Installed vinyl Sparco r100’s in my car in December just forgot to post pics of them so here they are. I used stock sliders and there isn’t much head room. I’m about 6’1” and my hair just barely touches the ceiling.

My car has had an oil leak since I bought it. it drips three drops right underneath the oil pump/oil filter housing area but it also sprays all over under the car. It sprays on my intercooler piping the bottom of turbo, all over the oil pan, etc it has progressively gotten worse and now it makes...

This used to happen to me all the time it was the cigarette lighter shorting out somehow and blowing the 15A fuse so I would have to wiggle all the wires and it stopped so maybe check the cigarette ighter and all the connections

You need to turn it up the wastegate is different on the 16g than what I assume was a t25 that u previously had

Honest opinion should I go the usual route and go silver rims on my green eclipse or should I try out some gold rims? I was thinking 18inch Motegi mr138’s gold

some sparco r100’s seats:hellyeah: Black on black vinyl

What are your final goals with the car? And yes you will need to retune with any larger than stock injectors

So do you guys think a lsd is worth the money or is the money best spent somewhere else? I was looking at apexi apr boost controllers which are boost by rpm but idk if that would work very well:idontknow:

I’m thinking about buying an lsd for my fwd gst. It’s a pretty exspensive modification to do so I’m wondering if it will give me more traction which is what I’m after. I want to be able to hit boost in first gear without peeling out so will a lsd allow me to do that or should I try to find a...

Wondering if anyone makes custom fog lights hole covers/deletes? I know people used to make them but it was like 5 years ago.

Do a boost leak test sounds like a huge leak

91 octane is the best I have in Montana so I was wondering if anyone had any tuning tips or any advice at all for making a bit more power my goal is 300 at the crank and my super rough estimate would be 270hp right now with 16psi on a 16g. I know 91 isn’t much different then the higher octanes...

Ended up being a broken wastegate actuator

Update: I took my boost controller off and it still only went to 8psi so Its definitly the wastegate actuator

I didn’t get to do anything to it today but yes I did a blt and there is no leaks

The mods are not recent the 16g was installed about 2 weeks ago which was the most recent one, I was driving it and it suddenly stopped going past 8psi, my ic piping blew off the same day it stopped going past 8 psi (my fault),it used to boost perfectly to 14 psi which is what I had it tuned...

Wait will a Garrett t25 wastegate work?

I do not
