Ok so me and jrdrew-5 were tearing down his car tonight for some gaskets to fix echaust leaks, he went ahead and bought t3 gasket exhaust mani gasket all copper emboss gaskets from ffwd connections. and exhaust mani studs/nuts from amber at fp. so going thru the motions we run into some where...

Our side of the forum went dark again so I figured we needed a hello whats-up. Anyone know of any car get-to-gethers are? Krystal's on Merrill should be in a couple weeks (First Friday of every month). When is Sonic over on JTB?

I just ran into this problem today as I went to play with CeddyMods and setting my fan on/off settings for my cooling problems.:hellyeah:So I open ECUFlash like I have done a 100x and there was this funny red border around the window and it just shuts down. I was like WTF, I restarted my...

First off this is my fault for thinking but not reacting. I did the ground wire mod this weekend because I was getting electrical feedback, also called road noise from the speakers. I was also getting a battery drain if the car wasn't driven for a couple days. This started after I...

I wanted to know if there was anyone in the southeast area that could help me with tunning. I got my Openport 2.0 cable, got a netbook dedicated to logging, AEM wideband, ECU Flash, and going to download EvoScan and Ceddymods tonight. Do I need to get the serial data cable to convert the...

Flashing my ECU isn't working out for me and I am thinking of moving to link. I have a 99 GSX with an automatic, will a 9947 EPROM ECU loaded with V3 work for me? Is there any difference from the auto to 5spd, and GSX to GS-T? Thanks!

I did some searching and haven't found much about the AFC Neo and wanted to know if there is any opinions out there about it. I need something to tune for either 750 or 880cc injectors. I am well aware that the SAFC won't tune the 750cc injectors very well, (so if I get the SAFC I might be...

I removed all of my egr equipment including the charcoal canister, all the hard lines, and everything under the battery tray. I used the egr blank-off plate sold by FFWD. I used this link...

I purchased a crushed 1g BOV from a member on this forum and I think that it might be bad. I did a boost leak test and air is coming out of the BOV. Is there anyway to test the BOV besides the BLT? Is there anything I can do at all to fix it? I know that 1g BOV's are unservicable so does...

So I just wanted to show you guys my new parts.So here is what I purchased: 7cm TDO5 Hotside ported/upgraded flapper--and coated in CGB-1000 Stock O2 Housing ported to the max--coated in CGB-1000 FP Race Manifold--coated in CGB-1000 SS Manifold studs (BALLER!!) Copper gasket package...

I am in need of a brake booster asap. I can pull it off the car myself, and I have tools.Disregard this thread, I got a new brake booster installed now and have no need for another.

So I think I made about the dumbest mistake possible last night. I was drilling a hole in the firewall to run my tubing and wiring for boost guage/water temp. I thought I was drilling next to the steering boot, when I was actually drilling right into the brake booster. :banghead: I caught my...

First off I wanted to to start this off with an apology to MY1GDSM, I was trying to buy a part from him (the MAF Tuner Pro) and the deal fell through on my part. The worst part about it is that he has spent the past week patiently answering all my questions and when it was about to be a done...

I have done a lot of reading about getting the O2 housing with the external dump and for the most part other than being loud under boost (and slightly illeagal), but would it negate the reason for needing a full exhaust system?Will putting a full turbo back exhaust on differ much from just...

So I figured I would post this up because if there is anyone else in the Jacksonville Area that wants to have some fun with R/C cars I am always up for it. If anyone is interested in buying my electric R/C setup you can always shoot me a PM :thumb:It is a Traxxas Mini Revo VXL Brushless. I...

I am just seeing if anyone has anything that they would be interested in getting rid of, or trading for my stock parts. If your selling your car maybe we could do a swap with my stock stuff?? I have a 99 GSX that is completely stock, and automatic. I am looking for the bezel that goes around...

So I ran my Mini against my stock GSX and thankfully the GSX still wins. The Mini spanks me in the corners by a long shot. :hellyeah:

So its been about 7 years sense my last DSM build, and I just picked up a 99 GSX. It is in amazing condition, and in all stock form. I haven't decided my build path if any considering the car is in such amazing shape. I like a running DSM and once parts start going on things start breaking...

Just checking with someone to make sure that this trans is the right one.The stamp on mine:KF4A232UPQ5 TN0341The trans that is in the car now has this stamp:KF4A232UPQ5 sw6013The top numbers are the same and the bottom numbers are diff. Are these trans stamps enough, or do...

Does anyone know of a DSM performance shop for tuning/building in Washington? I am tired of trying to work my cars problems, and would rather just give it to a shop to tune/fix the problems.Any performance shop would work, but I would prefer a shop that fellow DSM'rs have gone with their...

I know that a lot of you guys out there have done headliners, and even more are asking every day, so I thought I would post pics of mine that I just did.First off this is my third attempt on headliner. The first a miserable failure, bad glue poor fabric. Second which I think i have pics...

Should you hear the Walbro 255 before you start the motor? Ie when you put the key in the ignition and before you bump the starter should you hear the fuel pump?Should you only hear the fuel pump during operation and during cranking of the starter? :confused:

Just wanted to post something somewhere about this. Last night my car was busted into, the got under the hood and stole my VPC Air Filter setup (was a Injen Red Intake, with red filter), also my Turbo XS Duel Stage Boost Controller, and my Blue NGK Spark Plug Wires. They had to remove my spark...

This is at almost all temps, except for when the car is warm. Its really really hard to start. If you just hold the starter over and try to start it that way it won't start. If you bump it a couple turns, pump the gas, bump it a couple turns, give it some gas, eventually it starts.I had...

My logger said 0 for O2 Voltage so I threw a new O2 sensor in, now my readings jump from .14 to .90 back and forth all over the place. Any ideas? Could the rear O2 sensor be causing this? I only replaced my upper.Thanks for any help :confused:

I am having some issues here. I decieded that I have gone through my break in period with the new turbo and everything so I figured I would hook up my boost controller now. I had it going from the intake to a t-fitting, one line going to the BOV and the other going directly to the wastegate...

I just got my header jet coated and figured while the header was out I would upgrade my O2 housing from the stock T-25 (which bolted up to my 3" Apexi Downpipe), to a Evo 3 O2 housing to match my Evo 3 16g. The Evo O2 housing matches the Evo turbo great, I can't believe that I was actually...

On the exhaust housing side of the turbo (not the O2 Housing), is there any difference at all between a Evo 3 and a 16g, BIG 16g, Small 16g?Is there any difference in porting size, anything at all?I know that the compressor wheels are different does that mean you can interchange the...

I am moving to Jacksonville, FL and need to know if they IM cars there. If so what years, and how strict is it?Thanks

Got the car running, and my pocketlogger setup. Went for a couple runs and wanted to see if someone could help me out. First running: Pump GAS(91+), Denzo 550, Walbro 255, MAFT with 2.0 in Blowthrough. The rest of the supporting mods are there... Base=4 Idle=7 Mid=3 WOT=3Rpms O2...

Ok I can get the car to idle. On my MAFT I have the base set at 4 and the idle at 7. If I move either of those from those positions the car dies. As soon as I give the car gas it chokes and sputters. I can't give it gas, if I feather it up the car it fights me, and I get mini backfires...

I am hoping somebody might have had this problem and found an easy fix for it.I installed an automatic trans in my car, replacing the broke one that was in it. I started it up last night, and drove it around the block. It shifted good, and cycled through all the gears. I went out to the...

I just got the car running for the first time sense all the mods where done, but now I am having problems.I am not getting any boost. The boost gauge goes to vac 25 to 0, but won't generate any boost. My turbo is spooling, I can hear it trying to push, but no boost. The car chokes really...

I just want to make sure that I am installing this correctly. I have the "electronic boost cylinoid" controller on the passenger side (the same one that I did the "free" mod on), the lines that go from that to the the turbo. Now that I have the Evo3 16g and there is no line on the compressor...

On a 95 Automatic GS-T, there is two nipples on the charcoal cannister. Where does the forward one go if anywhere? I am putting my car back together after a new trans and can't seem to figure out why that looks like it should go someplace. If anyone could help that would be great.

All my mods are almost done, and its almost time to start the beast for the first time. Couple questions though. I have asked this a couple times and nobody has been able to answer it though. I am running a Apexi RACE blow off valve, it has a larger hole than the other BOV's, with my UICP the...

I searched the threads and couldn't find anything on this so I am going to ask.On my GM MAF translator there is a harness that plugs into the 3" GM MAF, and the other harness that plugs into the stock MAF plug. Then there is a white wire and a purple wire.The white wire is the tach...

Can I use anything to substitute for the gasket between the turbo and header? I have heard some people use thin sheet of copper. Any ideas? I don't want to spend $30 for a "Water Jet Cut 7cm stainless steel turbine inlet gaskets", and most of the other places want $20 plus as well.Will it...

I took the car apart a couple months ago and not sure if I am missing a part. So here it is:On a 95 GS-T Automatic, in the front of the car, where the cross member goes from back to front, there is an engine/tranny mount. The mount is inbetween the radiator and the trans. Inside the...

Other than Goodguysbadguys.org, is there anyplace on here that I can post places that I have had good experiences, and bad? There is two places that I have purchased parts from and want to warn everyone and anyone that is even remotely interested in buying parts for their DSM to know NEVER BUY...

If anyone has any pictures of the Apexi GT FMIC and the route that the piping goes. More specifically I would really like to know if anyone knows where any of the piping is for sale. Or if not for sale, lengths, angles, and dimensions. I have the FMIC, but no brackets or piping. Custom...

If anyone is using or has used these monstor speakers I could use some info. I am building the box and haven't found a lot of information on these speakers. Port, Sealed, or Bandpass? What kind of air volume, and port lengths. I don't want a prefabed box, and these are going in a full size...

I know that I need to trickle charge my capacitors before hooking them up to the battery. What size Diodes do I need from Radio Shack? How long do I trickle charge them before hooking them up to the 12v?I am running 3 1F caps in series, should I be running them parallel? All three are...

Can someone tell me what this stamp breaks down to, and also what car/s it came from?F4A33ENSI have a couple pics of it as well.Thanks guys

I have a 95 GS-T automatic trans that has two broken mounts on the casing, the front lower hole is completely gone, and the rear mount has a bolt studd broke completely off the trans.I have a 98 GS-T auto trans that has level 10 components, and valve bodies, but I have found that there is...

Does anyone have any helpfull steps in removing an automatic transmission out of a 95 turbo? I have the entire passenger side dropped out, tire, strut, lower control arm, and drive shaft. I have the driver side drive shaft out, but now what?Any help would be great, pictures would be even...

So I have the new RACE Apexi BOV, the thing is huge. Kind of hard to mount it veritcle on the VPC setup on the IC pipe, doesn't fit under the hood. Well it doesn't fit on the bottom either, hits my dipstick on my auto trans. Anyone used this beast of a $450 BOV? I didn't pay that much, and...

I have a 2g(95), and I have an upgraded(level 10) Automatic. I know that I need to run an aftermarket, or external trans cooler, so two questions. One the stock one on the driver side, will that work in con-junction with another? Second I have two radiatiors, one with trans cooling lines...
