I am looking to replace the carpet in my 2g. I'm taking out my back seats, so I would like the carpet to cover that area as well, instead of the bare metal. Anyone know any places that sell carpets that are pre-cut or something like that? Thanks in advance.
Is there a fellow DSMer that can give me a helping hand?I am selling my car, but a kind DSMer is really trying to keep me from selling my car. And he's willing to help me out, but the problem is. We need to borrow an AEM EMS to see if that will solve the problem. We'll only need it for an...
I need to replace the ISC from my 1g TB. But I don't know what year this particular ISC is from. It looks different from all the ISCs I see online and the 95' ISC I took from my 2g TB.
I need to replace my ISC motor in my 6-bolt 2g. What years can I use? Looking to get a good used one to save some money. Or do you guys suggest I get a brand new one?
I am going to be getting a pretty good second job. And with all the money I make there, I want to save or invest it.However, I don't know which way would be the best. Savings account, stocks, real estate, etc.What are your opinions on the best way to save or invest money?
Just would like to know if anyone here has a welded center diff or the TRE-spec Center differential spool (similiar to welded center diff)If you do, how is your daily driving? I am planning to have one of these... most likely the spool. And I will be driving daily with it. Just would like to...

I have this very weird problem with my car.When I am driving on the road, and I go to turn on my lights. The car seems to bog down for a millisecond. Like lose all power for a split second, and come back to life. My engine light than comes on for a few seconds than goes away.Anyone...
I am planning to put some hood scoops later on, and need some ideas on which ones look good and are funtional at the same time.I looked through a few forums, and most of the links to hood pics are all down. So I am having trouble finding some.The Invader hood looks alrite, but the one...

A friend of mine wants to buy a sports bike. I don't know too much about them. But it seems a few of you know your stuff.She is looking to spend under $5,000 for one. Are there any suggestions on which bike to get for a beginner? And are there any kind of classifieds for bikes online like...
What is a quick reliable car for around $15,000.I prefer to have handling than straight line acceleration. And would like the car to be relatively quick, as I don't really want to mod it too much (exhausts, etc.)Just would like to know your opinions.
When my car is fully warmed up my exhaust starts ticking. And it continues ticking even after my car is off, until it cools off.Anyone know why my exhaust ticks like this? It's a repeitious tick that comes every few seconds.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what kind of intercooler to get for road racing?I've read that having a big front mount isn't really a good idea. It may look nice, but it blocks alot of air from coming into the engine bay.Just would like to know your opinions on which size I should...
I am planning to paint some parts of my car in the future. Like the front and rear bumper, and the fenders. But before I do so, I would like some advice, tips, websites, etc.I am going to practice on various body panels from a junkyard before I actually do my car. Maybe after a few months...
I am looking for a good set of aftermarket pedals that bring the gas and brake very close to each other. I am trying to heel toe, but the stock positions of the pedals in the 2g are way too far apart.I was thinking of these two pedals:
Just talked to Mike over at DSS. They are still in the testing phase of the project. It's more on the background working on it slowly. And at this time, there are other priorities.However, he said if he received a good amount of people bugging him to finish the product, he'll be able to...
I may be buying a used 97+ Eclipse front bumper. However, it did have a crack on it, but it was fixed with fiberglass. However it's in white, and that's the exact color I needed.The guy is selling it for $100.Should I still go for it even though it had a fixed crack on it, and ask for...
A friend of mine asked me this question. I didn't know the answer also.He has an autometer boost gauge. Now when he starts that car and he's just sitting there. Is the gauge suppose to be at 0 or is it suppose to dip down into vacuum?The other question is. When he starts the car without...
I am going to be getting 550s. Just would like to know if you need to modify the fuel rail or anything like that. Or do you pretty much take the old ones off, and put the new ones in. Thanks in advance.
Curious as to how these two turbos compare to each other.Both seem to hit around the same amount of boost around 3000 RPMs, and the spool up is very quick for both. And in between shifts would the boost be instant in both turbos? The only difference I from owners is that the L1R is going to...
I am going to be buying some bumpers and going to ship through Greyhound. Only problem is, he's having trouble finding a box big enough to put each bumper in. Does anyone have any ideas on how to ship one? Thanks in advance.
Jst curious as to how well stroker engines and FWD go together. I've been seeing alot of thread of GS-T looking forward to getting a stroker.The way I see it, having a stroker engine may be a bad thing. FWDs already have alot trouble getting traction. And adding more torque from the engine...
Going to be looking at a 1g gs-t in a junkyard. What are some good things to be pulling out of the car?The engine is still intact I believe. Is there an easy way to tell if it's a 6-bolt? Thanks in advance.
Is there a way to have a grill so you can easily take it on and off? Most of the ones I've read about are either you screw them on, or you use those twisty ties. Reason I ask is, if I have an FMIC... I don't want to be showing it off all the time. I don't want all the attention, "He has an FMIC...
I don't have one, but planning on getting one just in case. A person I knew had his engine on fire. Luckily, someone had a chrome fire extinguisher on their a-pillar. I won't be putting mine there by the way :)Even if you don't use it, someone else may.
Is anyone interested in a carbon fiber turbo spoiler?I am trying to see how many people are interested before I go through with this.So if your interested just chime in on this thread :)
Just wondering how well Lojack works (I think I mispelled it)On average how long does it take to locate the car. Because if it's any more then a few hours, all your your stuff is pretty much gone.
My new 3' exhaust came today and I noticed a dent on it. It's about 1 1/2 in long and it goes 3-4 cm deep. Here are some pics. Should I return it and get another one or is it nothing to worry about. Sorry for asking a quick reply. I need to file a damage claim same day. Thanks
I found a nice set of Racing Hart CP-035 that I would like to buy. <$1000 w/ tires. Problem is, 2 of them have dents on the outer rim. Is it possible to fix them, and for how much? Thanks in advance.
Just curious is to how well these two go hand in hand. I noticed alot of people looking to get built engines to going all out. And still want to be streetable. And on top of that, would be the only car they would be driving.Would the 6-bolt/95 pistons be the best for the street? I read that...
