I installed my new Zeitronix wideband unit into my car the other day, and for some reason i cant get my logging program to recognize that the wideband is plugged into my laptop. I am using the standard Zeitronix program that came with the wideband on my early 07 Dell laptop (windows XP). The...
So it's been a LONG time since i've been on this forum, and i got bored today and wandered on over here. Anyway, i no longer own a DSM. In case some of you are still on here from back in 04, here is my old car(1997 Eclipse GS-T)...
I just picked up a MK4 Supra SMIC from a buddy, and i have read that i need to "flip" the endtanks on it to get it to fit. Is this true, and how well does it fit? If so, how hard is it to flip the endtanks, and do you have a write-up on it at all? Thanks alot.
BTW, I have a T25 turbo still...

FWD, falken azenis, [email protected], shifting at 6k, removed spare and sub. :thumb:
here is how i did:
14.408 @ 96.38 mph w/ a 2.29 60. I was very pleased with this run, all except for the trap speed. But before tonite, my previous best was a 14.7 with a 2.4 60'. so yes i am very happy...
Ok, I am finally here! The hardest decision i have ever needed to make with my car. I have searched and searched and read many posts, but i am still not sure yet. I have been building it and preparing it for a turbo upgrade since i got it. All i need now is a supra fuel pump and port/polished...
Ok, i just replaced my clutch(disk & PP), TOB, resurfaced the flywheel, well actually i had Gabor do all the work because it was his parts, :p but i havent rebuilt my master and slave cylinders yet. i am doing it this weekend. but here is my problem. if i accelerate slowly in first, and...
I just recently got seriously interested in racing rally. I have been a huge rally fan for a few years now, but just recently i realized that i might actually be able to race myself. So i was wondering if any of you guys have ever entered in a rally cross event? My buddy is graduating from...
Ok, some of you saw my last post, but either way, going into tonight, my best time was a 15.0. The weather was great, i was 14-15psi on t25, with 38 psi in 18" tires. So here is my new best in full street trim, 18" tires, spare, subs, college books etc:r/t: .283

Ok, i got some new Hoosier A3S03 racing tires. they are 215/40/16, and i mounted them on a 16x6 inch rim. I am only using them for track drag racing. No turns or anything. Does this look like it will work? anything funny looking about them?

Ok, i am one of those annoying venter kids, i like the sound;)
anyway, i dont vent by choice, i vent because i cant get my recirc. pipe to go on. literally, i have the greddy type-s BOV, greddy IC piping kit, and Dejontool intake hardpipe. do any of you have the same setup and successfully...
Ok, this is my first official newbie question. When you guys are talking about how much boost you are running, is that given amount the amount you are running at WOT?
cause when i get on it in 3rd, the boost will shoot to 12psi very quikly, then when i put it all the way down to the floor(WOT)...
I swear, my idle has a mind if its own. and it frustrates the piss out of me!! :mad: Like when i first start it up, it idles at like 800-900(good). but then if i rev it or if drive it for a little bit, then it will idle at like 1500, or 1300, or 1100, or wherever. it just kind of decides where...
I am sure you guys are well annoyed with these kind of questions, but my friends and i have been bulshitting eachother on whos car is faster, so we decided to have a track night. we are all going to pitch in $5.00, and at teh end of the night, winner takes all.
So i am wondering how i will...
My stock ones kept falling out of the socket, and instead of being like everyone else and doing clear markers, i wanted a bit more "stealth" appeal. and this is what i ended up with. what do you think?
This is my first time that I have ever worked with sheet metal, or even fabricated anything before. :cool: I have to give credit to turbo1307 for helping me with the dimensions. *thanks alot*
So here it is, check it out:/\/\/\/\/\/\ this was taken before i cleaned up the spot welds...
I have a t25 and it creeps. It used to spike really bad too, but my new MBC cured that.now, when i get on it, the boost will go to like 11psi, then if i keep on it or keep pressing the pedal slowly, the boost will start to creep up to like 15, and then i let off because i dont want to hit...
:mad: Ok, so there i am talking to some guy about his eclipse gst, and all of a sudden i hear a crash sound, like the sound of broken glass. then someone says quikly, "holy shit, someone just hit that green car with a beer bottle!", and my car being green i say, "that green eclipse right there"...
Ok, this is worthless to any of you, but then again that is why it is in The Hangout. anyway i wanted to inform you of what i plan on getting accomplished this weekend:

4)headlight bulb coversion (9005 in...

I have heard rumors that it will mess up your cooling system. IS this true? and to what extent?
I just though i would share this with you. This is my new TRUST/Greddy Manual Boost Controller. I got it shipped here directly from the "Land of the Rising Sun"!:thumb: I love "real" japanese parts. i actually have a real "JDM" part in my DSM, l:laugh: l! anyway, here are the pics.it is...
Ok, i bought a car with a few mods, i know, i hate buying modded cars too, but this one needed a new owner and someone to take care of it properly:shhh: oh and i got it wiht 78k for only 4600.(97 gst)
anyway, i am starting to wonder what all he had done to it. i can identify the bolt on parts...
Dont you just love it when you can remove mods from your "Wish List" and put them in the actual "Mod" sections.:cool: Like i just moved "Intake-Hardpipe; Trust MBC" from 'wish-list' to "Engine-Mods"!:thumb:
I just had to get that out. because i am new to dsm's and ever since i got the car, my...
Ok, as far as i know, i have the stock t25 turbo on my 97 gst. But the turbo has a badge on it that says "Garret" "Made in Japan". Does everyones have this or is mine just strange? the only reason i ask is because i got the car from a wholesale dealers auction and am not very sure of any of the...
Well i was hardcore into the Nissan Z-Car and Silvia line-up along with the Toyota AE86, long before my DSM came into my life and i was looking back at some of my own links i had saved and came across this.It is an engine torque damper/dampener. Pretty much it is a little shock that...
I know everyone has people ask them strange questions. So what is yours? I came up with this idea last night when i was out looking for the local street racing crew and i pulled up to this guy in a parking lot, just to say hi. Because he was the only one is the group with a 2g dsm. so i though...
Has anyone have any experience with this STB? i really dont like adjustable STB's and this is by far my favorite! I really liek the design. I plan on getting it even if no one else has used it. but i was just wondering if anyone has had any problems at all. thanks
let me start by saying that i did search for this info, but i still lack the knowledge i need to make my decision. thanks in advance.ok here is my scenario, i have 3" exhaust and a 3" downpipe on the way. and i know about boost creep. so i need to get a quality Manual Boost Controller. and...
Hey whats up, about a month or so ago, i bought this 1997 Eclipse Gs-T. I know it is FWD, but i got a smoking deal on it. 78K on the odometer. The exterior mods are: Diablo Racing 18 inch rims, tokico 1.5" suspension package, slightly tinted windows, and removed ALL rear emblems. Oh, and that...
Ok, i have searched this many times over and cannot find EXACTLY what i am looking for.
Now there is a slight chance that i can pick up a 97 gsx w/ 98k for like 2 grand, from a wholesale dealers auction. the reason it is so cheap is because the engine is making some nasty noises. I imagine it...
i did alot of searching and i couldnt quite find exactly what i wanted to know

I really need a new suspension, cause the goober that had the car before me used coilovers with stock shocks and slammed it like 2.5 inches. I want something that will have good ride quality, not be bouncy, and lower it about 1.5-2 inches.Ok i know everyone will tell me that i should go...
