Was still working on the car for a bit and then moved last week. Hoping to get back to it this weekend. Ran the wire for my alternator.Started putting on the RTM exhaust and figuring out what the downpipe needs to adapt.STM fmic trail fit, seems the top flange doesn't want to sit flush...

Went out of town for the weekend but got back to it. I have been putting off tackling the throttle body. 90 n/t, rebuilt it with mil spec seals, new gaskets and biss, and an fiav bypass plate. I hope I got it right.

Also, I kinda moved on from my fuels setup for right now. I did my fuel pump rewire but I dont like the wiring. Large wire into smaller wire back into larger wire? I looked up the draw and it should be ok but seems iffy. So I bought a bulkhead fitting for 12awg and plan to run the fuel pump...

I put the rvr intake manifold on that had its inlet matched to a 1g 60mm. The evo 3 coil bracket had coils on it but it said they fired in a different order on the brackets and I didn't know if they actually worked. So I swapped the cars original coils onto the bracket. Put the battery tray...

Sadly it does have a sunroof, I would like to have it welded shut. I have not worn a helmet in this car but in my 99 gst with cloth manual seats I did rub without adjusting. Thanks for the positivity!

Hi, I bought this car while in California in 2009. Had it transported from Colorado. Then brought it to Cincinnati where it threw a rod bearing no more than a couple years later. Has been sitting in the weeds ever since. I purchased a 6 bolt block and the machinists line hone, cylinder mill...

This is the Build Thread for 99 purple gsx. Reply below.

Thanks! placed one final order

I would try to contact carbonetics. I think they could do it for you.

Thanks a ton, I swear I went through every picture on that page twice looking for it.

Thanks for your replies. Any idea what the orange plug is in the third picture? It is off the same branch as the speed sensor and water temp gauge sendor I believe. It looks just like the cruise control plug in the link but I already have that one hooked up.

I have been attempting to reinstall my wiring harness on my 99 m/t gsx. I have ran into a few connections that I cannot find for the life of me. I have used https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/2g-engine-bay-electrical-connections.298047/ to help me so far.This is part of the starter harness...

I found this sensor mixed in with a bunch of bolts. It looks like the connector is broken on the top, any idea what part this is?

I used these 2 links to help solve what I was looking at. https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/taboo-speed-shop-vacuum-diagram-and-removal-for-1g-and-2g.198327/ https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/2g-engine-bay-electrical-connections.298047/

I am in the process of removing the charcoal canister on my 99. I have removed the actual canister on the drivers side front bumper area and the hard lines running back to underneath the battery tray. I have encountered solenoids under the battery tray that I am not sure what to do with, also...

I have a 99 gsx. I have been away from dsm knowledge for about 5 years. I was all ready to go the eculink route until reading the 99 ecu is flashable. I also have a 95 eprom ecu somewhere.Anyway i am looking for some advice on which way to go from users of both. I know there is a huge...

Whats up guys. My car has 750cc inj, 42 psi fuel preasure, no boost leaks, 272 cams, 57trim turbo and ecu+ with other supporting mods including head studs. So after the cams, timing belt change the car started stuttering and misfiring whenever I revd it up past like 6k. I log it and the...

Sounds good we will do a leak test and set the bov to the right preasure and also inspect all the lines. Something odd is that his boost gauge is tapped into his throttle body elbow. He has a hard line running to his gauge. Ive never seen this before, my gauge is teed into the fuel preasure...

My friend with his gsx put on greddy intercooler pipes with a type s bov. He has a cone filter. He builds boost way too fast and too much for the stock boost solenoid. He will hit 20 psi easily and his car isnt really going anywhere. His exhaust manifold is missing one of the bolts and we...

no head studs with 20+ psi of boost?

thanks guys thats what I was thinking. If I do head studs do I need a new headgasket? my complete upgrade list would consist of: timing belt kit, lifters, cams, head studs, head gasket, lsd, fix my clutch clicking sound, and what would I need to rev to 8k? can I get a flash?

Ok I called a reputable shop asking about cams and a limited slip dif for my 50trim gst. They told me that to take advantage of the cams I would need to rev to 8k and I couldnt just do cams. They said I would need head studs, yeah I know, but connecting rods? Maybe Im getting confused with...

Hey guys. I went to the track last night an did a few passes. My best run was a 13.63@105 w/ a 2.28 60 ft. I cant keep consistent et's though. How do you think I did?

I think Ill just go with some fp2's and some new lifters. also the timing belt and stuff needed for that. ill just see how far I can take this 7 bolt.

If I feel like doing the head studs I could just as well help the motor out. To hold my or little bigger turbo what would the block need? rods I think, pistons might as well?

Ive got an agp rs49t and was hoping to push 20+ psi after cams. The fp2's would be better, bang for the buck? Also no need for head studs at 20+ psi?

I need a timing belt swap. So I am going to get a kit. I read there are 5 seals that I need to get along with the kit. What might they be? I want to get cams at the same time and was looking at the fp2x's but would the fp2's be close enough to tell a difference? Otherwise that requires the...

no not the only year. I have a 99 with gray cloth, black dash. my friend has a 98 all black w/ leather. id worry more about just getting black dash, console and then upgrade the seats, evo seats

I have intake, rs49t, fmic, short route piping, hks bov, 3" tbe catless, evo3 manifold and 02 housing, 750cc injectors, 255 walbro, ecu+, fpr, act2600, you get the idea. what cams would be best for a track/street car? I was looking at 272/272s but maybe for my setup 264/272s would be better?

Great thats exactly what I wanted to hear. thanks Would I need the gsx brake booster? What would be the effects without it?

I have a 99 gst. I am looking to upgrade to the 2g awd brakes. If I can find a 95 set with the banjo bolt, calipers, mounting braket, shims, pads, and rotors, is this all I need? I have ss lines on the car already, will these work? I have 17" le37t's with a 42 offset. Will the brakes fit...

I have a forge unos mbc with an agp rs49t internal wg. I had the mbc turned all the way down with the soft spring and I was hitting 15 psi solid. I went to turn it up and it droped down to 10 and would creap up to 13. No matter how much I turned it up it wouldnt change. I put the stiffer...

Where can I get some exhaust hanger bushings? I need to replace a few on my 99 gst. Are there any stiffer bushings out there or should I just stay with stock?

dsmlink is pretty pricey after getting a eprom ecu though. an safc would not be enough to satisfy my needs i dont think. Any others?

My setup is...intake, agp rs49t, evo3 manifold and 02, rre downpipe, espelir catback, no cat, fmic w/ piping, hks bov, plugs and wires, walbro 255, fpr, boost gauge, egt gauge, act 2600, streetlite flywheel, I had a greddy spec2 ebc and turbo timer but they both just died. I have 750cc...

Using the evo3 02 housing w/ no heat shields. The battery is less than a year old and was fine untill this problem drained it...

Are you talking evo mr downpipe? If so get a full 3" or atleast 2.5" before flex then 3" back. Id go with the sbr manifold, can't beat the reliability of cast. I don't have much experience with injectors but from what I have read you would be getting close the limit for 650s, what will be...

Alright well I installed my 50trim, fmic, yada yada. Ive had a greddy ebc and turbo timer on my car for 2 years and now the ebc has no power and the turbo timer is going crazy. Its constantly beeping and flashing random numbers. I hooked up my egt gauge finally and thats the only change I...

Sorry I forgot I have an evo3 manifold and 02 housing w/ 3" catless turboback. I really need a waterpump? balance shafts sounds good. any others?

My current mods are filter, intake pipe, agp rs49t, fmic w/ piping and hks bov, greddy ebc, act2600 w/ lite flywheel, 255 fuel pump w/ regulator. I also have injectors sitting here but Im waiting on my tuning device. What maintenence would be good to look into as well as a tuning device and...

Yeah sorry late at night. I have walbro 255, 750cc injectors, aeromotive fpr.

I would like to have some opinions on what to do next. Here is what I have either on the car or sitting here ready to get put on. apex filter, dejon intake hard pipe, agp rs49t w. lines, fmic w/ piping, hks bov, greddy profec b2, evo3 manifold ported, evo3 o2 ported, rre long downpipe, espelir...

What would I need to get the same braking power? gsx brake master cylinder?

I have narrowed my choice down to 2g gsx brake upgrade or the baer claw big brake kit. They are both 2 piston calipers with larger rotors. Would I see much of a difference with the baer kit over the gsx brakes? I have read that the gsx calipers have a different brake line connector, how would...

Thats some good info there! I'll think I'll do it. Also I would like a better flowing fuel filter. Anywhere where I can get a whole package? Or atleast point me in the direction to piece some things together.

Currently on my car I have sloted/dimpled rotors, metal masters pads, and ss brake lines. I plan to track my car some and can already feel the fading on the street. I would like to upgrade to atleast a 2piston caliper and bigger rotors with a more aggresive pad. I was looking at a gsx upgrade...

Damn I was hoping it would be more along the lines of the master or slave cylinder. Guess I got some work to do.
