  1. 6 Bolt 4g64 in a Mighty Max?

    Hi all,There is a 1990 Mighty Max in the local pull-a-part. Motor is in pretty nice condition. I want to get the crank out of it (only $25), but I am not sure it is a six bolt. There is so much conflicting info on stroker cranks on this forum. At this time, I have identified that the...
  2. Did ACT revise their street disc?

    Hiya,I need an answer on this QUICKI had a new ACT street disc thrown in with my older 2600 plate by a shop this week. Welded pedal assembly, bled PERFECTLY (not a single bubble in the fluid), pedal adjusted all the way out, etc. However, the clutch was grabbing very strongly even with...
  3. very loud knock please help so worried

    Definitely rod knock. Had this happen to several cars. Time for a rebuild.Greg Heineken :talon:
  4. Omg! mitsu mighty max

    Hi all,There is a 1990 Mighty Max in the local pull-a-part. Motor is in pretty nice condition. I want to get the crank out of it (only $25), but I am not sure it is a six bolt. There is so much conflicting info on stroker cranks on this forum. At this time, I have identified that the...
  5. newest SSAC o2 housing...interesting

    I have seen IN PERSON their "revised" tubular manifolds for dsms. They are a night and day difference from what they used to be. My only complaint about them is that they flanges need to be planed flat. Other than that, top notch pieces. Thick flanges, thick tubing, and pretty good welds...
  6. Stripped exhaust manifold studs

    Read what ssstuds.com has to say about studs made with stainless 300. It's pretty much a direct stab at ffwdconnection and slowboy racing. Not sure about how true it is though. Meh, do what you will. As for me, I'm going to try them out. I've broken 5 stock studs now, thankfully none of...
  7. What do you guys think about this rebuild kit?

    Do it yourself. Read up on engine building. Find a good shop to get your parts cleaned/machined/balanced, etc. I'm looking to build a stroker motor for less than $1500, including forged internals and a built head. The trick is that I can put it together myself, I just need someone else to...
  8. Short shifters bad for transmissions?

    DSM's. His name is Andrei. He co-owns Abel Racing in the OKC metro. He knows his shit, so I don't instantly discredit him, but a short throw that is properly adjusted being bad on a transmission? Just doesn't make sense.Greg Heineken :talon:
  9. What do you guys think about this rebuild kit?

    Use a factory kit, minus the head gasket. Why risk something so important over less than $200? Besides, the topend kit doesn't include valve cover gaskets.Greg Heineken :talon:
  10. Short shifters bad for transmissions?

    I didn't either, but considering I just paid over $2000 for the transmission, not to mention everything else, I don't want to injure it. Just thought I would see if anyone had heard of this before.Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  11. Omg! mitsu mighty max

    There's a 7th gen Galant in the shop I go to that has had an all wheel drive conversion done to it, but not in the most typical of ways. They owner has actually welded the subframe of a 1g awd dsm into the car. It's kind of disgusting looking, but apparently, it works.Greg Heineken :talon:
  12. Short shifters bad for transmissions?

    Hi,I had a strange conversation with one of the owners of Abel Racing. While paying for the transmission install job they did for me, the guy told me I should put my stock shifter back on as short shifter kits can damage transmissions. I had never heard this before, and through an...
  13. 7 bolt cranks suck

    A point about Mitsubishi and reserviceable parts:"Rather this can be blamed on Mitsubishi's poor deal with Getrag, the transmission manufacturer. In the agreement, Mitsubishi agreed to consider the transmissions "non-serviceable," and instruct all their dealers to simply replace the entire...

    What would the model name for PTE's 60-1 be?Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  15. scm 6152e opinions

    Sorry, my bad. Should stop perusing the forums while intoxicated :coy:Greg Heineken :talon:
  16. scm 6152e opinions

    Also contemplating a 60-1. What kind of spool can be expected on a 2.3?Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  17. GT3076R on a 2G

    DN Performance is a good name brand company for a tubular manifold. Despite the flack on the forums, the SSAutochrome/XS Power exhaust mani's are ok pieces; they're copies of the DN Performance manifolds. The loads of hate against the company are somewhat deserved; they're older design was...

  19. Bargain Basement Big Brakes

    How large of a spacer is needed to run the 2g VR-4 rotors? might be worth the price if the spacer size isn't going to make my car look like a crack-running hooptie from the west side.thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  20. Another new NA time [email protected]

    If only the NA cars were as light as hon-duhs. Nice times man, keep up the good work. :thumb:Greg Heineken :talon:
  21. Starter with 6 bolt?

    Hit up an Autozone/O'Reilly's/Advanced Auto/whatever and see if their parts numbers are the same. If not, see if they have both on hand to do a side by side comparison. The other option is check the Mitsubishi parts program (can't remember the name; it's on the DSM service manual cd's and can...
  22. Are 6bolt n/a cranks nitride coated?

    Both posted threads neglected the fact that the blocks are DIFFERENT. The N/T block does not have oil squirters. If you're running forged pistons, this won't be a big deal as far as internals go. However, the oil squirters are a MUST for cast pistons, and regardless of what pistons you use...
  23. Building a awd track/street car

    Just for the archives, what kind of horsepower is a stock 1g TB, or a bored out 1g TB good for?Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  24. Looking to lower my air temp using liquid to air

    As for trying to use a liquid to air intercooler to cool the air charge below ambient temps, it would only be possible if you had a cooling system like an air conditioner system to bring the temp below ambient. If you ran the liquid coolant through a small radiator, the coolest it would be able...
  25. Build for 89'Quest

    Personally, I'd say keep your 2.6 bottom end and put a 4g63 head on it. It's been done. If you're going to do the swap, pull a wideblock out of a Mighty Max and build a 2.4 L. You'll still need a 4g63 top end, but it shouldn't be that hard to come across (I just picked up a complete top end...

  27. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    Because the option of twin scroll T3 has been brought to my knowledge, I'm leaning more towards that; just offers more options in the long run.Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  28. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    1) Yes, this is planned for a stoker motor (which is on a stand in my closet :shhh: ).2) I realize a 50 trim can be good enough for "smoking 'Vettes", however I feel that there may be other options out there; this thread was started to look into exploiting those options.3) The thread has...
  29. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    I'm DEFINITELY interested, especially if the price for a dsm manifold would be similar to the prices for one of their honduh manifolds. Just need to get the funding together. Bonus check for this month looks good, and with the nature of my job, it will only get better as xmas gets closer :D...
  30. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    I do realize that a divided turbine housing will require the runners to be run correctly (1 and 3, 2 and 4 if I remember right) As for turbo size, possibly something along the size of a GT3076R (I had previously been unaware of the twin scroll T3 housings) on a 2.3 liter. I was hoping to keep...
  31. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    HAHA! We're making progress. As for a twin scroll T3 setup, who makes manifolds for them? If a custom one had to be built, how much could I expect the cost to be (I'm not sure how much different it would have to be from most tubular T3 manifolds aside from the turbo flange)?Thanks...
  32. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    The only reason I mentioned the twin scroll 20g is because it is already on the market and I knew where to find it. I'm almost positive someone has developed a bolt on Garrett turbo setup for evo's that uses their turbo flange, which is what I would really be after; something larger than a 50...
  33. 1g NT block for stroker build up

    Thanks. Just wanted to be sure. As for the oil pressure, would an external oil cooler setup help to allviate that at all as well?Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  34. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    What are twin scroll or divided inlet turbine housings? What are the benefits of using a twin scroll turbo? A "twin scroll" or "divided inlet" means that there are two separate volutes within the turbine housing. The main reason for doing this is to isolate the pulses coming from each exhaust...
  35. 1g NT block for stroker build up

    I have searched this before, but it slips my memory and my more recent searches for the answer have not jogged it.Is a 1g NT 4g63 block strong enough for a high performance turbo buildup? I know they do not have oil squirters, but these would be removed anyway due to the stroker setup...
  36. Custom header to run evo-style twin scroll turbos

    Before I even begin; please, no flaming or comments that lack any sort of engineering/experience-based supportHere in Oklahoma, Abel Racing out of Midwest City successfully bolted an Evo 8 exhaust manifold, turbo, and o2 housing to a dsm 4g63 for their shop drag car. The car ran low twelves...
  37. cracked transmission

    I think you're asking for trouble trying to weld the ear back on with the motor in the car. Just doesn't sound like the safest practice. Whatever you do, be careful.Greg Heineken
  38. Turbo that works for a 2.0 and a 2.3

    Still no reply on the center section upgrade idea? SBR sells dual BB center sections in various trims of compressor wheels. If I were to start with a 360* journal 50 trim w/ dsm turbine housing and t04e compressor housing, would upgrading the center section with a more potent compressor wheel...
  39. Turbo that works for a 2.0 and a 2.3

    Thank you for all the help. Unfortunately, I am still turbo dumb, so I really do need to do more reading on how to do actual comparison of turbos. If it hasn't become obvious, I assumed that the larger the trim, the higher the flow (((I should have known this wasn't the case because I have...
  40. Turbo that works for a 2.0 and a 2.3

    Hey all,I have recently accumulated enough cash to upgrade my 14b and give the correct supporting mods for a significantly larger turbo. However, this may be causing more of a dilemma than I thought. The problem is that down the road, I would like to do a 2.3 build up, as I would prefer a...
  41. Mitsubishi vs. MHI Evo III 16g

    Where did you get that? I said the Evo GT and SSAutochrome units are knockoffs of the MHI unit. Sorry if that needed clarification.
  42. Mitsubishi vs. MHI Evo III 16g

    Close, but not even quite true. There are 3 variants of the 16g for DSM's. All of which are produced by Mitsubishi. These are:Small 16g Big 16g Evo III 16gFlow rates go from lowest to largest as you go down the list.As for Evo III 16g's and knockoffs, this can be divided into three...
  43. Rear toe arms (control)

    WOW!!! Someone on here knows how to make adjustable rear control arms!?!? Will we ever see a tech article for this (I'm better at following directions than I am at actually figuring things out). HINT HINT.Greg Heineken :talon:
  44. How strong do I need my trans to be

    So can anyone help me out with the transmission cooler setup? I've searched the forum, and all I've gotten back was a link to a NABR post that I can't get to.Greg Heineken :talon:
  45. How strong do I need my trans to be

    I followed read the post, and what Dre did is not posted on it, only a link to another post on Team NABR's board. I do not have access to Team NABR's forums. Can someone possibly post the info from there onto this forum?Thanks,Greg Heineken :talon:
  46. Manual Transmission Oil Tempatures

    Could you possibly copy and paste this onto this forum? Your link didn't work, and I don't have access to team nabr's forums (((Nor do I really wish to be affiliated with them, as I feel that anyone that get's that picky over n00b questions and bad spelling needs to get off of their high...
  47. How strong do I need my trans to be

    Can you provide any links to a decent setup? I figure if I'm about to drop $2K on a transmission alone, a nice tranny cooling setup would be a safe investment.Thanks,Greg Heineken:talon:
  48. How strong do I need my trans to be

    THANK YOU!!!!Just the info I was looking for. The guys at Abel Racing know that I'm poor as ####, and I think this is why they were trying to sway me away from getting more than a decent rebuild, but some of the things they said, mainly about the center diff and steel forks not being much...
  49. How strong do I need my trans to be

    We're going to try to be. I may have to ask the guys at Abel Racing for some pointers on being "nice" to transmissions. I am a highly agressive driver, so it will take a bit of time for me to reteach myself. As for the transmission, does anyone have any idea about the shift fork and center...
  50. How strong do I need my trans to be

    LOLGood point. I try to avoid racing from a roll for two reasons: 1) most cars I would race have an advantage at a roll. 2) Racing from a roll implies that I street race, and we all know that none of us do that :shhh:So yes, a reserve trans sounds like a good idea. Do you have any...
