    Who's working on what in the Sac area?

    I picked up a 97 GST a few weeks ago. Bone stock under the hood but has some nice mods to it. Hoping to start tossing in a few of my old DSM parts and have some fun. It's my first FWD Mitsubishi.I also have a Ralliart Sportback as my main car.I guess there isn't any meetups. I hitup the...

    Star smog check

    I just got one also, for my Galant VR4. I lost my smog buddy recently, haven't found a replacement.My Galant VR4 wouldn't be bad at a smog test, my buddy just gave me cheap smogs (~$25-$30)

    No boost!

    is your wastegate functioning properly? I hit mine with some compressed air to make sure the arm and wastegate was operating.Also, on my 92' GVR4 my CAT fell apart into itself and clogged the exhaust flow. Try dropping the CAT out and driving around the block on just the downpipe.

    Yea, I was in the Grey Galant VR4 chasing you. I saw you at the stop sign turning onto Wilbur and decided to catch up and make sure.I was on my way to work also.

    White Galant VR4 Spotted

    Just spotted a white 1992 Galant LS (from the tails) on Wilbur Way (by Mac Road) but it was most likely a Galant VR4 with LS Tails. Lowered on some rims, no front bumper.I pulled up next to you in my Galant VR4 but you were focused on the light.

    White Galant VR4 Spotted

    I'm up for a local meet, but In'n'Out has a tiny parking lot.I drive a Kensington Gray GVR4 and I think I did spot you at Mac/Stockton. I work right around there and DD my GVR4. I've been meeting a lot of fellow GVR4 enthusiasts lately and hope to put together a MOD 2013 cruise!

    diagnostic help

    I agree, with that bearing damage you should hot tank the engine block and replace/clean all oil lines.There is also going to be damage to your crankshaft and you won't know how much until you take it to a machine shop.At this point I'd either: Build the engine to 'factory fresh' or go pull...
  15. SpryTSI

    diagnostic help

    If it's just minor clicking and no real damage has been done yet, you can take the rods/crank to a machine shop and they can test for damage.I don't have much experience engine building, but for a bottom end build can you just drop the crank/rods/pistons out the bottom?

    White Galant VR4 Spotted

    Spotted a 91 White Galant VR4 off Mac Road. I believe it was the same one my co-worker spotted.We gave each other a quick wave (I was in my GVR4).

    CMI Winter Warm Up 2013

    This... makes me want to race my stock GVR4. Are you sure they'd let me race with no helmet?

    Someone pick up this GVR4 in SJ pick n pull

    Wish I had room to save it, sounds like a clean low mileage shell.

    Passing smog with an Evo3

    I've had smog techs argue with me over stock intercooler piping and others that hardly looked under the hood. It all just depends.Previously, when I was sure if my car would pass or not, I asked for a smog pre-check to make sure i'd pass visual/sniffer prior to running the smog test. Most...

    There are some DSMers on Craigslist, I'd say throw it up for $6,500 and see what you get offered.

    Meets every Friday Night.

    I have a Kengsington Grey Galant VR4. My co-worker spotted a white GVR4 a while back and I posted about it on here.I haven't been to any Sacramento meets, recently moved here from the bay area.

    shifter issue-please help

    Sounds like a tension issue. The galant has a spring around it to keep it centered, maybe add a shim?

    Need input for dd build

    I'd add in Link and a wideband if you can fit it in your budget. Otherwise, maybe just a wideband, MBC, and logger.

    HEMI in an eclipse

    I say go for it, but buy a supercharger. Eclipses demand boost.

    zeitronix zt-2?

    I used one on my Evo to keep an eye on A/F. I found it wayy too expensive though to track additional items ($100 for the boost sensor!).It's a good A/F gauge, didn't experiment with logging capabilities though.

    16g on a stock car?

    Pickup a used 16G for $250-$350 and toss it in. With everything else stock, it should run fine.Ebay turbos are NOT GOOD.

    rod bearing bad????

    Yea, I'd only trust FFTEC. You can ask them what machine shop they use and go straight to the source though.

    Any of these meets still going on? I'd like something in Elk Grove area with DSMers.

    Passing smog with an Evo3

    I've passed with multiple configurations on a 16G. It should be no problem with a CAT assuming they don't fail you on visual.

    Don't skimp on tuning! Just take it to FFTEC.I've had great experience with them.

    AWD dynos in area

    FFTEC in Hayward - Mustang AWDQuick forum search on EvoEmpire came up with this one: Wyotech Sacramento college Auto Dept. Telephone: 916-376-8888 1010 Riverside Pkwy. Email: West Sacramento, CA 95605 Website: Model 424xLC2 52 miles
  37. SpryTSI

    Moved near Sacramento

    Go to a smog shop and ask for a pre-test only, they will run your car through the CA smog test and a good technician will tell you if he will pass/fail you for visual. If you pass sniffer, then ask for a regular test (right after the pre-test).

    New to dsmtuners

    Sounds a bit like me. I went Evos for a while then got into a VR4.Which one did you pick up? The panda in San Jose?I picked up 912/1000 from LA in December, keep getting her closer and closer to running right. She was in rough shape when I got her. I've put 4,500 miles on it since then...

    Local DSM mechanic?

    They have a tuner (at least for Evos) from what I hear. I'm not sure if they have a dyno or not.

    WTB: AWD tranny+4G63T motor

    You can sue him under fraud and misrepresentation if he knowingly sold you a car without full disclosure. This can even pierce the "AS-IS" clause in most bills of sale.That is, if you can prove that he knew about the issues, neglected to give you proper disclosure, and profited from it...

    WTB: AWD tranny+4G63T motor

    Anyone know anything more about these transmissions? The CL ad doesn't give much info and he has a TON of them up. Cash only makes me a bit concerned, especially when I see junkyard trannies for $250-$350 and he wants $950 + core for a supposedly 'rebuilt' transmission without giving any...

    WTB: 91-94 AWD Transmission (23 spline)

    Like the title says, looking for one in good shape I can drop into my Galant VR4.Looking to spend less than $600. Bonus points if it's a TRE/Shep/FFTEC rebuilt.Also searching for new front/rear axles if available.
