    ECMlink Possibe PK?

    I want to start by saying my profile is out of date. I've been using my talon for my 15 mile commute to work weekly (2-5 days out of the week, depends which car I take). I can provide more information at a later date, I have logs saved with knock. I was running an evo 8 stock tune to help with...

    95 Talon TSi AWD

    With covid this has not been an easy step to get to, these parts aren't cheap and I try to stay with new that way I can start fresh, have a few back up used parts if I can get them in case shit hits the fan. These cars are becoming more popular again I feel, in a way, and I want to get what I...

    95 Talon TSi AWD

    Got around to ordering parts. Thanks to a few members both current and previous I am able to collect a few sought after parts to help give my baby some personality. I want to keep the Mitsubishi vibes, keeping it OEM+. Right now I am prepping for doing the timing and overhauling any and all old...

    420A Help need all hoses for 98 eclise gs automatic

    I'll add i have replaced my hoses due to coolant leaks, all of them of my 420a. All through rock auto, parts lasted longer than the frame did.

    420A Help need all hoses for 98 eclise gs automatic

    What hosez!? Heater core inlet outlet. Radiator inlet over. If its rubber you can find the size you can make it fit. Rock auto has a lot.

    420A To build myself or send to a shop?

    I second on rebuilding yourself since this isn't your only car. The 420a motor is very forgiving, obviously dont so sloppy work. Although I have made stupid mistakes with my 420a eclipse but because of what the 420a motor is, didn't really hurt it. Not a great performance engine, you CAN run...

    95 Talon TSi AWD

    New wheels came in and I couldn't be happier, I have a great middle ground in terms of price and quality that I'm happy with. Im not rich and can't afford the flashiest stuff but these will be great for now and I'm gonna use them for a while too.Took her for a test drive to see where I'm at...

    95 Talon TSi AWD

    Shout out to @b00st3d for the quality work with the aluminum door handles. Ill admit I had to try my hand at doing these on 3 separate occasions so I had to learn and re-learn the process each time lol oh well! Looks amazing, I ranted and raved about these being worth it and they are.My doors...

    Definitely been waiting for you to tune after the awd swap. Hopefully you got the rest of the exhaust installed though lol

    1992 VR4 #71/1000

    Glad you haven't given up on this build! Covid has really messed up my plans with my talon but it also helped financially for me so I'm able to put it on the road as quickly as the parts can come!

    2G New wiring harness for 420a?

    You are able to have a harness made. I believe ohm racing makes them. I know they do the evo 1-10 and 4g63 dsm 1g and 2g, pretty sure they do a 2gnt. It isn't cheap thoughEDIT: I fact checked myself. They only offer evo 4-10 and 4g63t dsm harnesses

    GVR-4 300hp build

    On the front page further down to the bottom of the thread links are stickys, there should be one with generalized upgrades and the hp range from those mods. There are a lot of build paths to go down to achieve your goal, just look on the site 300hp goal or do some research. I don't know enough...

    2G Ticking noise

    I have this noise coming from my 2004 civic ex right now, along with a myriad of other sounds I can't pinpoint. This almost sounds drivetrain related to me, it sounds separate from the rpm of the engine and doesn't sound like it matches. The shifting of downforce could be stressing a broken or...

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    It's always good to have spares of stuff. Thats pretty much what I'm doing with my talon, any parts I see that are quality and worth buying I see them once I get it all maintained and running smooth ill start upgrading and eventually that means rebuilding the engine so I'll be in the market for...

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    Nice man, save up some money and throw some forged internals in that sucker. I would look for an extra head and throw a timing kit on there and get it drop in ready for a rainy day!
  18. 609DSM

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    is it a 6 or 7 bolt? I believe the normal range of psi for compression i previously stated was for 6 bolt.Although I suppose that is a moot point since you will need to at the very least install new rings, sounds like that block is in need of a rebuild. Might as well send her to a shop.

    420A Jumped timing.

    The 420a is a LOT more forgiving than the 4g63 when it comes to timing. I cannot fully confirm that it is okay being off 1 tooth although I highly suspect it will only mess with operation with little to no damage to the valves.I have seen people post on here with varying issues at idle and...
  21. 609DSM

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    What is the psi on all the others? After a wet test if compression increases it indicates worn piston rings. Sounds like the rings on #3 are really bad to be that low and only increase to 100 psi max. IIRC around 170 is healthy, don't quote me on that as someone else with more knowledge will be...

    1998 Gs DD project

    Small update on this thing. I still drive it from time to time, I have replaced all coolant hoses and no more coolant leaks.I also replaced the PSU on the back of the block and no longer leak oil! Still burns a little bit on start up so I suspect either valve seals are worn or the rings are a...

    It looks good man, your wife sounds awesome haha. Mine got me a bunch of goodies the past 6 months, all tool related because she's too scared to get a car part for my talon thinking she's gonna get something that won't fit or I won't like haha.The knob on my fake b&m is supposed to be a greddy...

    420A Shift Cable

    Sounds like the wrong cables were installed at some point. Or maybe someone did engine work on it and got the two mixed up?
  27. 609DSM

    2G What even is this thing?

    What a shame. I bought this without doing my research, I had only heard the b&m short shifters were the thing to have and that they were rare so I did a quick Google and jumped on it without looking into it like I should.Oh well lol you live and you learn.
  28. 609DSM

    2G What even is this thing?

    Was sold to me as a real b&m, pretty sure I got bamboozled folks. It looked real enough when I bought it, now that I'm looking at known b&m photos I'm thinking otherwise. Not that there are a ton of pictures of the product anyway lmao. I'm getting annoying with people being scum bags selling DSM...

    95 Talon TSi AWD

    This is something I was able to snag for free thanks to a DSMer that doesn't have his DSM anymore. He wanted it to go to a good home and I assured him it certainly is.I haven't pulled the ECU on the talon yet to check if its an EPROM but its nice to know I have one reguardless, went to jersey...

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    Honestly I would still rent, borrow or buy a straight edge to check the flatness or the block since you're going to have the head off the block. Better safe than sorry. If you are just doing a routine PM by changing the head gasket I wouldn't be extremely worried about warping.**I personally...

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    I'm not a machinist or certified mechanic. I would say no it can't because I don't know of any reliable way to block any shavings from getting into the cylinder and causing all sorts of damage to the cylinder walls. I believe you need to strip the block bare to have it decked.On that note it...
  33. 609DSM

    2G 4g63t block and cylinder prep?

    Prep in what way? And what are you talking about when sealing. Like in terms of a head gasket seal? Valve stem, front case, OFH?Assuming you are talking about prepping for a head gasket I would take both to a machine shop if you don't have a reliable straight edge and have them check for...

    This one is long but I believe it will offer more insight on your oil issue. IIRC he goes over the oil flow and what path goes where and why.

    That does sound like a concern! I hope you find the issue, let us know if you do. Hopefully a more experienced dsmer chimes in and drops some knowledge.

    2G Oiling issues

    Sorry, I thought you were cranking by hand as its quite a bit to read. So you're cranking using the starter with the spark plugs out? Even so from what I read just now it won't build significant pressure for sensors to pick up (some guy was saying 5 psi?). This could be why you are reading nil...
  37. 609DSM

    2G Oiling issues

    I would imagine you really need to be cranking the engine like realllllly cranking it in order to build significant pressure, i imagine i am also a bit ignorant in this subject as well. Hope this jafro video helps you! His videos are great!!

    Resolved Strange issue with 6 bolt swap.

    don't know the actual number of teeth unfortunately but I know there is a difference!I'm not sure, I think you might need a new assembly all together but I could easily be wrong.

    Resolved Strange issue with 6 bolt swap.

    Ah crap thats right the euro came with the 4g63 platform! Sorry! And I can't offer much help other than researching the size of your flywheel are correct for the application.

    Resolved Strange issue with 6 bolt swap.

    I believe the fly wheels for the FWD and the AWD are different sizes. And do you have a GST or GSX, you said you have a 97 GS? Is it a spyder? I am unfamiliar with the spyder trim levels.A 97 GS can't support a 4g63 without a good bit of fabrication in the engine bay. (Unless we are talking...

    2G What short throw shifter?

    So I just looked for the kdn just for kicks cause you said it was pricey. 1600!? Ouch and I thought my b&m was pricey LOL but I bet it's worth every penny.

    2G What short throw shifter?

    The Megan racing is the same design as the b&m. Some have said the quality is bad some have said the quality is good, I can't attest for the quality but this is what I've read review wise.Its speculated b&m stopped making their short shifter because Megan racing had their same design and sold...

    420A Turbo my 420A

    There are some kits out there with name brand turbos I THINK (this was a while ago I was doing research on this topic) but they are very costly. If you wanted to keep the price tag low you would need to fabricate a lot of the piping to get everything to fit. I like to look at it as a DIY turbo...

    Garage struggles

    I pay an extra 15 a month for up to 5000 insured and my total is something like 197 each month. The lady gave me some chemical in a bucket to absorb moisture as well. Told me about all the bad tenants she had haha. I'm happy with it, just got to move all my tools now.

There wasn't a direct property manager but the lady who hooked me up said she was basically the property manager and she lives on the lot there above the office. I mentioned my car needed some work but...
