Hahaha. Just stumbled across this picture from about 8 years ago, when I was huge into the DSM world, God I really miss my 1G! Well check it out, I do not know why I'm posting this I just figured I would share the good ole days with my long lost friends from the DSM Community!
Yea same here, when i got my 3rd dsm is when i met a couple guys having a meet down in e-town nj, and they told me about dsmtuners, so if im not mistaken i think i started the "college of dsm" life lol.. back in 1999 when i bought my red automatic 1g awd, :confused: auto? ya i know i wanted a...
Hey wusup fellow OG's, Haha it has been awhile since I came on here and showed my face again since I sold my 1G, Its been well over 3 years.. And I can say 1 thing I sure do miss living the DSM lifestyle.... Anyways just figured I would pop in and say Whats up. And thank you to all of you that...
Well, I tested my system at 25psi, it gradually drops to 0 withing 15-20 seconds, which is not to bad i guess, but heres my problem, i have air comming from my biss screw and another unknown area around underneath my t/b area, anyone know of some common things i can start replacing.?
yea exactly what the title says, i take off in any gear once it gets to like 5-5500 rpms it just sputters and takes forever to hit 6k, anyone got any suggestions?
whoa whoa whoa whoa, why the dirty mouth and the furious outbursts on you're keyboard.You are a parts whoya.... So explain to me how I am able to get parts in NY cheaper then the wholesale distributers actually sell to the stores. And at a rate even better then that too.You do not know...
No it really didn't get to me man, But you should know me by my threads, I really always respond to people with smart remarks toward my comments or intrest in whatever.Anyways I am taking 1month off of dsm's then my journey to find an 1991 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD 2tone is going to be on its way...
Its mods and people like this that actually make members vanish off this site. Why do you bother to make smart azz comebacks and try and put me down... How do you know how much "I" will pay for GTO parts, ever think people may know other people.. hmmm...Maybe I have a friend in the business...
Well after years and years of building, racing, tuning, beating DSM'S up I am officially retired from dsm's right now. I am not moving on really to anything else, Its a sad year really, Sold my bikes, my dsm, my crx, but whatever, Happily to say the buyer is a former dsm owner of 2 1G's and...
Who knows... but in my eyes it looked offensive to me... If he specifies otherwise I will man up and appologise.Hey crimson do I know you personally? Not sure if any of the dsm meets I held up in NJ you attended?
Yea but when i mean cheap and easy go fast parts, you can put an Intake manifold, headers, full exhaust and it may cost you 2k, but you get alot of performance out of simple upgrades on it.Also I have no issue with drivetrain mods, but i was stating that why bother converting you're car to...
Right I'm driving the CRX, its sold but a buddy put a deposit on it till he gets the rest of the money so yea, and i have an 03 ford focus that will be my daily driver for now..What I'm thinking of getting next for a daily driver/tuner would either be a WRX or a GTO 6.0 6speed.WRX why...

They are nice but just as a pain in the butt as DSM'S are... I owned a Stealth R/T TT, the power to weight ratio is a headache to get over, Takes alot of work and alot of money to make these really quick... Better off just starting with a 1G 6/4... HEHE, But they are lovely cars and since 99 was...
Well i finally got my car back together, i picked up a used tranny, guy said it was perfect, and i know its not, but anyways, as soon as i put it in took it down the road and it shutters and slips like crazy, i have an exedy stage 2 clutch + PP, and i reinstalled my factory flywheel after my...
Well, I have only been around here for about 2 years, since I do all my own work, I am not really familiar with these so called "tuner shops" and to tell you the truth I wouldnt trust any shop around here with you're car anyways. There is endless write-ups and how-to's for you to really do...
Nope just like defiant said, you're clutch/disc/and flywheel are all closed off, im sure you will find out when you replace them. Check all you're fluids and make sure your master and slave cylinder are in good working condition, if you plan on keeping the car, you misewell replace both since...
Whatever you do, Don't let you're friend give you a 50$ ebay blowoff valve and try to push 20psi on it.<~~~ Tried it to see what it would do, I blew the head and all the internals out of the bov. after about 20min of beating on it.
Sorry, I didnt see the fwd part, Yea I would call them up anyways, but from my understanding I dont think a fwd flywheel will fit probably in an AWD setup, if it will, you may have to change some things around on it.
Well I am not totally sure what exactly caused any of it. I know that my ring gear depressed itself along with all 6 bolts on my crank were almost all the threaded out. And the noise that I was hearing was my ringgear smacking around, and the other metal grinding noise I started to hear was the...
You're best bet is call Fidanza and ask to speak with Wayne, he is the tech over there, if it can be done he is the man that can do it for you, cause they have to be heated and pressed on. Very cheap to install, he is actually doing mine for me right now.
Then why even post if you have nothing to say guy.. the other 2 members that responded had no problem understanding me. And I have never had anyone else since 2001 not understand what I am trying to say. Why is it that you cannot? I think the problem may be on the other side of the line buddy...
Well, I tested my system at 25psi, it gradually drops to 0 withing 15-20 seconds, which is not to bad i guess, but heres my problem, i have air comming from my biss screw and another unknown area around underneath my t/b area, anyone know of some common things i can start replacing.?
i may, the pressure plate bolts are ok, the flywheel bolts im not sure of yet, i might reuse them, they seem to be alright, but i already sent the flywheel out to fidanza for the tech to look at it and put a new ring on it., by the way nissan in port charlotte is having a dyno day in may, intrested?
Well I ripped the transmission out and guess what, I started to take the clutch bolts out and check this out the splinewheel and my flywheel was turning, and it cause almost all my bolts to rip out and start shearing and take a poop on me, this was the exact problem, if i kept driving this it...
At this point i havent done anything yet, I brought it down to my parents house where all my tools and everything are, so i can start ripping the tranny back out and looking for problems, I will be sure to check those issues first, Also where have you been pirate? I have been looking for dsmers...
Nope, i just bought it used off some guy that has had pretty good reputation and good feedback on here, he says it was the best dsm tranny he has ever seen, and after i got it i was complaining cause there was a few cracks in the bellhousing that he never told me about either., and there is...
Happy Birthday!, i know a few people who's birthdays are today also, I went to school with a kid who was born today, his uncle , my sister which is 4 years older then me, and someone else i went to school with but i forget off hand.
Nope, still a pain in the butt driving in any sort of traffic for me, and when the clutch gets really hot from being used alot it will tend to feel a little different. I noticed a huge different, before this i was running an ACT2600, and prefer the pressure of that over this clutch now, it feels...
Well, I wouldn't worry to much about you're first problem, I Also have an Exedy stage 2, and you need to rev up to about 2-3k for it not to start shutting and seem like its bogging down, and if you let the rpms drop when downshifting yes it will do the same thing, about you're slipping that is...
Well i got a transmission from someone, and after i put it in this is what i am hearing, along with lots of shaking and shuttering, the transmission does not grind into gears or slip out of gear.Click here to watch car-87-35
That is something i would like to know also, anyone out there that welded thiers up, and how did it perform?, if anyone is going to do this, please make a write-up so others can follow.
Someone just send me another walbro 255, rc 1000's, fuelrail+reg, gigantic fmic, some 4" lower+uicp. and everything else to make me get into the 10's with my crappy fwd.Actually if someone wants to donate me a 90-91 AWD with no motor, I would love that. hehe
<~~~ FWD, I have already had my share of AWD dsm's and I was moving to florida soon so i decided to pick up a fwd due to high speed driving and lots of highways, and to this day I still want to drop my 6bolt into a 91 awd, but for now I like what I have. But its cool to see some people's faces...
Well today is my birthday i am 23 now, lets start a list on what everyone is getting me, lolWishlist800+ CC injectors
Magnus Mani
External W/G setupJust respond what you are getting me please!
Lol, now i hear this weird metal rattling around at idle, when i rev up, and if i shift at higher rpms you can hear something grinding, i have no clue, maybe its time to rip it back out already?
Well since i have a FWD which things can i try?, my clutch grabs pretty low, but when i had the tranny out the flywheel and clutch had some surface rust on it, which i didnt take attention to and i installed the tranny back on without cleaning it off. anything i can try with my FWD?
Well i got this transmission off a guy a month or so back, i finally got it in and as soon as i hit boost the whole car shutters and shakes like crazy, like its slipping or something, but after the car is warmed up and i do a full pulls in 1st it will start to go away in 1st gear, then the same...
