2 people have told me 2 different things about my engine rebuild and odometer, tell me which one is right. my friend says to set the odometer back to 0, my moms boyfriend says leave it where it is. what do you guys think? its a complete rebuild, altyhough i also never toughed the tranny
ok, im bored, and have no clue why i was thinking about this, but i see a bunch of cars in my area with dual exhaust, except its a pipe from the cat spilts into a y into 2 mufflers. i know the y makes an odd restriction and also means nothing performance wise on an I4. however what if i took a...

i always wondered why mitsubishi put the 4g63 on the oppsite side of most FWD cars' engines. anyone have an explaination on why? i wasnt sure how to search for this topic so i figured i would make a post :p

anyone have any experience with probes? how are they reliably? respond good to bolt-ons? im mainly looking into the second gen, preferably a 2.5. id rather not go for the first gen turbo for insurance purposes right now. im getting tired of my metro, even though it gets 40mpg driving it...
ok, my local auto parts stores doesn't carry the sea foam motor treatment to put in my oil, but they carry deep creep. i was wondering if i can just put that in the oil instead. i wasnt sure and am hoping someone knows, i cant stand the ungodly lifter ticking in my metro.
i know this may seem odd, but does anyone have any experience with metros? i have a 95 and it has a wierd high idle. so hopefully some of you own a metro :)ROFL i doubt it
not sure if anybody has seen this before, so ill just post it anyway. this is done on a 2.8 cavalier z24.http://khturbo.net/rmtz24/RMTZ24.htmlits a turbo kit that places the turbo right at the end of the exhaust
ok, since my eclipse has been broken for a while, im finally gonna buy a different car, a 92 cavalier. i bought wheels from a 95 eclipse for my 92 eclipse a while back. they look like these: http://www.mrgrille.com/images/Gallery/G-MitsubishiEclipse-95-96.jpgim not sure if they would fit...
im in the bloomsburg area and was wondering if there are any dyno's in the area. i cant find a list anywhere. i was curious as to how much power the car i just bought is putting down.
my girlfriend's grandmother in 3 days is trading in my girlfriend's 2003 cavalier so she can get a 2002 corvette convertible :mad: :mad: oh well, i guess im lucky having a rich girlfriend, she said i can drive it :thumb:
ive just searched and i cant find a thread on this. i wanna get the front end of a 90 or 91 on my 92 because pop ups are HOTTTTTT :thumb: anyone have a link to this or possibly a link to a thread on here because i couldnt find any
so today was the first time i attempted to drive my car today after rebuilding the engine. it doesnt idle for crap, it wont accelerate at all that good, the speedometer doesnt woprk, it has a really really loud clicking noise all the time, it feels like the clutch is slipping (could just be me...
ok, i know how our cars make a small ticking noise all the time, but i have had my newly rebuilt engine running twice at 10 minute idling intervals. i know there is oil going to the valves and that area, but i am hearing one hell of a horrificly loud ticking noise from under there. it almost...
ok, i honestly have no clue why, but my car isnt starting again. since the last time it started up, i have done absolutley nothing to it. so i redo adjusting the crank angle snesor by putting piston 1 is at TDC on compression stroke and lining up the notches on the crank sensor and putting...
ok, ive seen that commercial where the guy says he ordered his from scion with a turbo timer and boost controller. i checked out everywhere i could and i cant find anything about a scion xA with a turbo option. does anyone know if they come with it?
anyone ever seen or have a pic of that? i was given the offer of a free 2gb talon spoiler and i LOVE they way they look, but i want to see it on a 1g (if its even possible) before i accept.
ok, ive double checked everything, as far as i know it should work, but it wont. i will tell people any info they want per request, i wont just go out and say stuff, since that didnt work for me before, so if you wanna know something specific, ask me. ok, my problem is that the car fires and...
so how many of you are lucky enough to have a 6 bolt 92? i found out a few months ago during a rebuild that i had one and was wondering just how many people really have one and what the odds are. wouldnt it be realy small considering they were only made for a few months?
ok... so my firned asks me to look on his car and see if there are any codes. i hooked up the copmputer and i got a code 36, which means wastegate is stuck open... WTF the vision never EVER had a turbo from the factory. can any of you explain this?
ok, so im cranking my car over to see if it will turn on in the last 5 minutes f vo tech today, and it doesnt start over. and i notice that the timing belt right between the 2 cam gears is jumping up and down , like its bouncing on a trampoline. im fairly sure the timing belt isnt supposed to...
i might be getting a free set of 450cc injectors, what would i need to do, if anything, to modify my car to accept them. please dont ask me why or what im doing to the car, i have plans. just please answer it nicely
well i gave my 89 new yorker (the pimpist thing on the road :thumb: :rocks: ) to my almost 16 sister and got my grandmothers 2000 chrysler cirrus for free :rocks: this thing hugs corners better than my eclipse, and i can do 90 on an on/off ramp with that thing. if this thread doesnt get...
ok, im not looking for criticism or anything, just tell me if it will work... basicly i found a guy that lives near my moms house that is willing to part with a 1g turbo exhaust manifold, turbo, BOV, and smic for around $100 to me if i want it. is it at all possible to just bolt them on, buy...
ok, i apoligize for the bad picture, but who makes that wooden ball shifter? it came with the eclipse when i bought it and since then i have boughten a different one. but now i wanna buy one for my mighty max and i have no clue where to find it. thanks
ok, i just got the whole engine completly done and reconnected yesterday. today i disabled the spark and fuel to prime it up by cranking it, and the gauge reads 0, so i hook a mechanical guage, and it reads 0. what the heck did i do wrong!
ok, i have a question about these wheels i just bought. im not sure what year and model eclipse they come off of, im thinging 2ga gsx/gst, they are the ones on the wheel painting tech guide if you want to see a picture. well anyway, when they go on the car, on the drivers side the 5 spokes on...
