That is what I thought. I will measure it with my micrometer and pic something up from Fastenol tomorrow.[Update]
Thanks guys. Got some spacers, everything bolted up square :)Now just need to finish my motor.
I got a used Baer 2-piston PBR kit and am not sure if I am missing any parts or not. I have 4 hubcentric rings(one to go inside each rotor, one behind each rotor?), 2 rotors, 2 caliper brackets, and 2 aluminum hub brackets.My problem is that with both hubcentric rings installed, and the...
Well I installed my FMIC and my bumper needs a lot of hacking. I tried to use my sawz all, but yah that didnt work :laugh: I tried a razor blade too but the sawz all worked better. So what should I use to cut it? I need to cut a lot and I need to be accurate so it looks good.O, and I...
Car was off, fuel pump was going, shouldnt matter. We tried both setting the base FP to 43psi and 38psi with the Aeromotive but it made no difference in how the car pulled under boost.I just got done installing the old AFPR on the car and its back to normal, 10.5-10.7 under WOT. I dont know...
This is not my car, it is my friends Galant. His mod list:http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/member.php?find=lastposter&t=256307The car was running fine yesterday then we decided to install an Aeromotive 1:1 AFPR on his car to replace the cheap AFPR/gauge that he had previously installed. We...
I just ordered a front set of Galant VR4 rotors, Axxis metal master pads, and SS brake lines for $256 shipped from www.irotors.comMy friend recommended them to me, descent prices as well.
If your ISC is bad then the car will definitely surge when the car is warmed up. I have eliminated my ISC completely with the JMFab blockoff plate. The only Idle issue I have is on cold starts, I need to give it a little gas to keep it running since the FIAV is blocked off, once its been...
Just to update things, I still havent figured it out. I have a new set of plugs, NGK BP6ES plugs along with 8mm Acell plug wires. The car runs perfect under boost with no gear load. What I mean by gear load is say your in 5th gear going 40mph, the knock will come into play when I ease into...
Swapped out the starter with an old one I had, car starts normally now. Going to take this starter back to advance and have them test it and see whats up. Stupid reman starters.
I do have a spare starter relay and ignitino switch I could try. But if I disconnected the starter switch all together then it shoudl have stopped right?
This is probably the 3rd starter I have went through in two years, all Advance Auto remans. But none of my other starters did this, they all just clicked like normal. This is the second time with this starter that it has done this, but this time I cant get the starter to turn off. Doesnt...
Did you ever check your timing like we told you to do on the other 2 forums you posted this on? If the timing is fine, it would have to be something in the bottum end.
My laptop comes next Thurs so I probably wont log anything untill then. Ill definitely make some better WOT pulls of this knock and get the wideband logged as well.
Its not only at part throttle, if I floor it at 60mph in 5th gear, it will knock at 10-12psi. Im just too scared to floor it through the knock as its pretty violent. If I downshift into 4th at 60mph it pulls fine untill redline.This has been going for at least 8 months. I have changed spark...
This has been going on for a long time, so long I cant remember when it first started. Basically under a load, say 5th gear 60-70mph, going into boost is fine, at about 10-12psi I get a violent knock from the motor, it shakes really bad. Its not like its a misfire, I know what a misfire is...
New clutch, OEM Tob, OEM dowel pins all installed. 100 miles on everything thus far, feels good. Hopefully this setup doesnt fall apart on me. I feel like a real n00b forgetting the dowel pins like that.
Awesome. My clutches would last 6-8k miles, but thats still far below what they should last. Im going to get some dowel pins from SBR and see how that works.
So that OEM Exedy clutch I put in is now gone, I think, maybe? Again the symptoms are the same, I couldnt get into any gear. WIth the clutch pedal out I had a nice "chatter", and with the clutch pedal pressed in, the chatter went away. I noticed the same thing when the car was working...
Hmm I never had any problem like that with my 2.4L Galant trans + 6bolt FWD flywheel. I did go from Auto -> Manual and had to use a manual starter, but that was about it.I wonder how different the 94-98 Galant trans is from te 95-99 2.4L Spyder trans. They might be the same. I think my code...
Bringing back an old thread. I have a 6-bolt with a stock unported oil filter housing and using an aftermarket B&M oil cooler with -6 AN lines. My oil pressure when its cold is usually between 70-85psi and when its warm 20-25psi depending where it decides to idle that day. At WOT it never...
Mods list is in my profile. My car had been running perfect for the last few months so I decided to go on a road trip to see my family. I stopped 600miles into the trip at a friends house and everything since then was perfect. Did not overheat, foul any plugs, it ran smooth the whole way.I...
I play dailey, great great game! This is the most realistic sim out there, the physics are great. Right now I just run with a group of guys on the Auto-X courses. I jsut got a Logitech G25 wheel and I love it. Post up your LFS name if you want to race sometime :)
Thanks for the replys everyone. And I know my "equation" is way too simple and doesnt account for a lot of things that can change. I know I can just do a search and find out that the Evo3 16g will be the best "bang" for your buck turbo out there. I just want to know the missing link in the...
Does anybody know the stock volumetric efficiency for a 2.0L 4g63t? I did a search which brought up two results, one for the 420a and another thread which had some information but mixed results.This link was posted about a calculator, but the calculator no longer works(at least for me)...
I say its too late in the season to plan something this year. How about a big meet next July when everyone is done with school and things?Planning for the last meet kinda went down the drain. Theres a local kid here with a 2g GST that is friends of the ownders of Dyno Inc(they have an AWD...
Yah I heard about the guys rolling around in the trash cans, I dont know who those guys were. But for the most part, Amerihost wasnt bad. A lot of loud drunks, but not any burnouts or acts of vandalism.
Heres a few dyno runs. I accidentally taped over all my Sunday race day footage :( :( :( :(First vid, 600awhp 1g and the dump tube came off mid run.
http://media.putfile.com/DSM-Shootout-2006-600whp-DynoSecond vid, Buschurs beastly Evo. Put down 798awhp on an 800whp Mustang Dyno and still...
Yah my friend got arrested. Parking was full in the hotel lot so the hotel security gaurd told use to park in the Penzoil parking lot which was pretty much connected to the Amerihost parking lot. My friend had an open can of beer and walked over to the lot to talk to us while we parked and a...
Yah, he made something like 558awhp on Buschurs Mustang Dyno. The fastest run I saw him make at the track was 10.5x something, but I didnt see all his runs. Definitely a beastly car.
Just to update, I finally fixed my issue, and it was totally my fault and there was no way for you guys to know what the issue was. I would give somebody $1000 if they could tell me what the issue was just knowing the above.Basically the car used to be an auto. When doing the swap, you...
I am traveling up with a caravan of 8 or so DSMers from VA. Should be fun. I dont expect to win anything in my class unless a 13.7 or so is fast lol. Maybe I will do the bracket races, probably my best chance. :cool:We are heading up Friday and then back home on Monday. Anybody in the...
So I had the starter I got at the junkyard tested, it tested out fine. I installed it for the second time and no clicks. The first time I installed it, I guess I didnt tighten the bolts or it was mis aligned or something as it mad a lousy noise when it engaged.This time I installed it, no...
Hmmm. My power wire for the starter does go directly to the battery but the ground goes to the body. Stock, the ground went to the body then to the battery. Its been like this for a year and havent had any problems so far, but Idk. Im going to try adding a ground to the trans and see if it...
For the starter wiring, this is how its wired:-Power wire on + post
-Wire on a connector, clips onto the top of the starter
-Ground is bolted to the bolt that bolts the starter to the bellhousingTheres not supposed to be a ground on the - post of the starter is there? This is how I have had...
Dont mean to hijack threads. But here is my thread on the same issue:
http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=233927Basically I have replaced everything in the starter circuit.
Check the ignition switch? I am in the same boat as you, I cant figure out why my car clicks! Only thing I havent tried is to add some grounds to the block/trans.
Ok so I had time to work on it yesterday. First thing I did was clean up the ground and the battery terminals. Cleaned up both battery terminals, the ground for the battery, starter ground, starter power, grounds in the engine bay that bolt to the body, and had no luck starting the car...
