Hey all, I was stationed out in Japan for two years and bought an 87' skyline, Imported it through the military. It is 25 years old so it is exempt from conforming to NHTSA and EPA regulations so I don't have to modify anything to drive it here in the states. The problem I'm having is that I'm...

Im I'm doing a project on a new form of turbocharging and i need to know how to calculate the force of the exhaust gas, lets say using a 4cylinder engine with 30% efficiency using .05 gallons of fuel per minute how do i calculate the exhaust gas's force (preferably in Newtons)just so i can get...

hey guys, DSM's have been a big part of my life so I'm gettin a tattoo to represent the love I have for these cars. The car by itself w/ a burnout would be great and maybe the letters "DSMTuner 425" underneath. Or just make one you think would look good, heres the pic I would like to use:<a...

Hey guys, I got a 1990 talon shell and I bought a 91-94 jdm engine with a 14b, I'm thinkin about upgradin to a 16g but I just got this offer that some guy would trade me a 17c for my 14b, he says it's much better than a 16g and he doesn't need a big turbo on his car. Full of bs is what I think...

For the last year or so I've been doin CAD at ITT, through the year I've been workin on this car, I did the 3G with the 4G63T because I wish the 3G came with turbo but o well. I didn't have time yet to do the tranny or the other small details of the engine but It still came out pretty good. What...

Just a quick question, I am getting a FMIC and I wanted to know if it would increase the cooling efficiency of routing the turbo outlet to the FMIC then from the FMIC to the sidemount (Basically in series), Then up to the throttle body, will the sidemount improve anything or will it restrict the...

as some of you know I wrecked my 93 laser RS converted to turbo, significant damage. So I bought a 3g eclipse GS a few days ago and realized that it has the 4G64! obviously I am going to turbo this ride. Now I have looked various places and have decided to pay a shop to do the work, things like...

I took a few photos of my car and uploaded a decal I drew, edited the decal and put it on the car(I subtracted the decal selection from the car and used the selection as a layer ontop of the original, then used the hue/saturation, brightness/contrast feature) anyhow I changed the colors of both...

I was driving to ITT in Columbus when I wrecked my car, I turned left onto Fishinger BLVD going east and some lady was in the right lane going like 20, I was going 40 in the left lane. she was about 1.5-2 cars ahead when she cutme off, I slammed on my brakes and slammed into her rear, she DIDN'T...

Turbo was making a strange noise for a little while, I thought it was nothing, then I upped the boost to 12 and it got louder, really loud, I had someone take a quick video of me going by, I kept boosting it (it is now at 9lbs but still sounds just as loud) here is the video...

since venting the BOV makes the car run rich at shifts and can cause problems I found a way to make the BOV sound louder while still returning and using the stock MAF, just go to home depot or autozone and get a pipe with a slightly smaller diameter then the Rubber return pipe and replace as...

I just installed a 91 turbo engine/tranny in my 93 laser 2.0 N/T I swapped the computers and ran 3 wires, one for the knock sensor from pin #9, one for the 7th maf wire from pin #3, and one for the FPR solenoid from pin #57, the CEL code says its the MAF sensor, what could be the problem? here's...

I'm converting my 93 laser to turbo, ECU pin #9 is the knock sensor, #57 is the Fuel Pressure solenoid, and #105 is the boost restrictor solenoid but my question is the #3 pin needs swapped also but is this the 7th wire for the Air Flow Sesnor? what exactly does it measure? the ECU pin name says...

will a turbo FWD transmission fit an engine with a AWD tranny and AWD clutch/flywheel? if not what needs to be changed? everything is a 6 bolt.I searched but the new search sucks because it keeps coming up nothing found, I like the old search on the home page but anyhow, does anyone have the...

what would I have to do to get this JDM 4G63T to fit in my 93 Laser N/T? it's AWD but I was thinking of sealing off the part of the transfer case to take advantge of the better gear ratio, I think it's out of a different car then a DSM because the turbo outlet tube goes up as if it had a top...

I put a turbo on my non turbo engine, worked fine until the rings leaked so bad that all the oil dried up and spun a rod bearing, this grooved the crank and I don't feel like getting it turned, so I just want a turbo engine and 5spd turbo transmission, I can't find an engine anywhere local so...

well, since I started using Autocad about a year ago I've been working on a CAD model of the 4G63T engine, it's not dimensioned at all and some things are incorrect but it is my first year and it's a working progress, attatched is a captured image of the model.

just wanted to know if these two sets of taillights will fit my 93 laser, I heard that either the 1ga's or 1gb's have a rounded corner, here are the lights...

hey, I'm burning (blue smole out the exhaust) which I believe is the piston rings, however what I don't understand is how oil can find its way ontop of my valve cover even with a secure dipstick that cannot come out. here are a few pics to show you what I mean:

Hi guys, I just got done pulling off my old rotors today, they had deep grooves in them, I don't know why, I resurfaced them and put on new pads and they still did it again. I bought a set of drilled and slotted rotors, they came in today, I've been working on them since 6 pm, it's 1:30am here...

When I bought my GSX shell not too long ago from Jerry at Gullet Trucking & Semi Repair I noticed he had a DSM in the back of the shop, I asked him if I could see it and what do you know, it was a 1.8 turbo!! he had used an old Chrysler turbo and made the exhaust manifold, I talked to him and I...

I know it says 1.8, yes I can read but look at the bolt pattern, would it work on my 7 bolt n/t?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FIDANZA-FLYWHEEL-92-99-ECLIPSE-GST-TALON-4G63-TURBO-FWD_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33732QQitemZ8021467212QQrdZ1

Well, being the inventive person I am I thought of a way to decrease weight of a vehicle without removing any parts, well my idea is this.. most of you guys that race have fuel cells so you have this big space where your gas tank used to be right? well if so then I propose that someone could...

Well I decided to sell my turbo kit, so I put it up for sel in DSMtuners/DSMtalk/and eBay, but this guy E-Mails me and says this:Hallo, i interest of your Turbo Kit Eclipse 4g63 2.0 COMPLETE kit DSM 1g Talon NR . I from Europe from Czech republic and i have eclipse 93 non turbo. In my...

I just got an email from someone who was looking for an intake pipe, I had one but it's crappy so i decided to look on ebay to help him out, and what do you know, a Nissan intake appears to match the turbo intake pipe on 1g DSM's, it's pretty cheap too, here's a link to the search...

Alright, I'm back into buissiness turboing my 93 laser 2.0 DOHC, I got all the parts I need and I'm installing them as I go. First question: Instead of drilling into my oil pan or dropping it and putting on a turbo one, do you guys think I could just hook the return to the dipstick tube? (If...

well, I was about 30% throught my turbo conversion when I got a couple tickets alot of $ anyhow, for now do you guys think porting out the stock exhaust manifold will make a difference? also, where can I get a carbide burr for under $10? I can only find them for 20 to 30. Also, while I'm at it...

I decided to post this to help out any newbies that are wondering if it can be done and to help out myself by posting questions while doing the swap instead of opening more threads. First off I decided to go with this setup, yes I am using stock internals but I am running only 5 psi.13g...

ok, I did some searchng and couldn't find my answer so my question is will an a/t FWD turbo Transmission be interchangeable with a a/t FWD N/T transmission? I'm asking because someone local needs an a/t tranny and I have two, but they're turbo's, what all would I have to change if I did decide...

Alright, I searched about a hundred threads and I can't figure out what exactly I need to turbocharge my car without doing any major changes, I'm setting the actuator spring at 5psi and I'm going to take advantage of the higher compression pistons, here's what I know I need, please let me know...

I've searched and I can't seem to come up with whether or not a 2g cold air intake will work on my 1g n/t, I just bought a cosmo racing filter that the stock mas sits in and I modified it to fit, now i need a cai and i don't want a do it yourself pvc, I want it to look new and professional so...

I have a 91 mitsubishi eclipse that I just replaced the engine and many other parts, It's having trouble starting, I've searched but couldn't find out why my car won't start, it used to take a long time to start but now it won't start at all, it turns great at 25o rpm's but it doesn't fire, the...

ok, I just got my crankshaft bushing for my a/t, I put it in the crank hole and tried to bolt the tranny on, didn't work, I got all the bolts snug but now the crank won't turn, what am I supposed to do? thanks guys.

I just got a 1991 eclipse gs-t with no emmission lines, I have a 92 laser parts car turbo, does anybody have any information on how to hook everything back up? (I would like the few extra mpg's!.) there is no canister, no vaccum lines in the top right hand side but I have all the lines, just...

ok, I have a 1991 eclipse FWD Turbo a/t and a 1992 laser FWD Turbo a/t, the laser has two things under the radio/cassete that the eclipse does not, what are they? one is a black box that says denso and has a part number mb823881 and the other one is a grey box with no part number, both have...

ok, first off my car idles crappy, there is no tube from the BOV to the turbo, don't really care about that, I got a hole in my brake line, getting it fixed, but now the real p[roblem, I have an evo 3 16g turbo, MBC, stock sidemount, fuel, k&n filter, stock internals, my problem is that when I...

this post can be used as a reference for newbies or anyone else that can use a little advice in the 1/4 mile, post things like shifting, at what rpm's, adjustments for better response, etc. it would also be helpful if you post your car and differences in 1/4 mile before and after changes, james.

hey guys, I was looking at a tsi AWD the other day and the guy said it had a t5 turbo on it, after much surfing I couldn't find any info, he said that it wasn't a t 25, any idea what it might be? the car ran 13.68 on stock boost, thanks.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if you think this is a good deal. 1990 Eagle Talon TSI unknown turbo, looks like a 14b stock everything else except K&N he said someone before him ran a 13.68 145k miles on everything chrome muffler lifter tick, said part=$11 + 200 for labor not major? (I...

hey guys, just wondering if the 2.0 intake tube and air filter will fit 1.8l

Hey guys, I was surfing and I found this a sonata 4g63? power difference/compatibility with dsm's? just curious

hey guys I need to know if this tranny would fit a vr-4, some say since it's a redtop won't work. It came out of a gvr-4 from what I know here's a description of the engine, redtop, ECI multi turbo Intake, small16g turbo, yellow top injectors, and the ECU that came with it is a dual board, could...

http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/803040 that is just wrong, all that work to make a DSM look like a fuzzy solar system

hey, I got a JDM engine I bought from sunrise auto the receipt says it fits 91-94 dsm's but before they said it fits all 1g's, so anyway I bought a 1990 TSI shell and the wiring harnesses are different, 91-94 doesn't match the car, 1990 doesn't match the engine. I need help deciding exactly what...

Sup Guys, I just got a crazy Idea on how to put a little more power in my crappy 1.8l until I can get my TSI finished. I got a fan blade of some sort made out of metal and a blower motor for a heater out of some car, I connected the two and bolted the blower motor onto a tin container, I'm...

I have a 1990 talon tsi awd shell and I bought a 6 bolt jdm 91-94 engine, I called slowboy racing and they said that all I ned to do is wire in my coilpack and cam sensor into my 1990 wiring harness, I have a 91-94 wiring harness cut at the dash and one other spot. I have both CPU's, buthow do I...
