    Daytime Running Light Module

    Canada has different rules for cars and I believe that the canadian version does have daytime running lights.As for the original post. Good luck. You are trying to find a country specific part. You might give DSMGraveyard a call.d

    Please double check my timing

    The head came from my previous 6bolt w/ 2g head before my crank shaft bearings seized from lack of oil after 1500 gentle break in miles. Luckily, it didn't bend any valves. Once I get timing done properly, I'm going to grab my pancake, get a good pressure valve, and test the pressure across...

    Please double check my timing

    I've never timed this engine before and got it back with the wrong parts from the builder. I took off the motor mount (had a 1g) and replaced all timing components. I'm following blcknspooln's write up...

    Just how lucky am I?

    Congratulations. Sounds like good karma to you. Be sure to spread it around. As for the OS "spontaneously" fixing. If you had a corrupt partition table, you might have fixed it. It's odd and you got lucky with that. I want to see pics of your 2k find. What a bonus to go from a GST to a...

    2g n/t making a "turbo" spool sound

    Did you look in the exhaust to see if they installed one of those fake turbos? I imagine someone could even go so far as to install a bov on the piping to the throttle body with a weak spring so they could get the spool from the exhaust and the whoosh when they let off the gas quickly. It's...

    My compound turbo set-up

    Would you consider selling the specs to punishment racing or some other vendor that does good welding so we can purchase this? Could even name it after you. I'd love to see some compound setups working their way through the scca and misc other road racing divisions.d

    1G Power Window Upgrade

    I've got the circuit diagram for the 1G in pdf form if you need. I looked through it and it only looks like you need to worry about grabbing the 30A relay on the main block under the hood to get it to work. There is a 10A for the ignition that is involved but you should have that already. As...

    4 door eclipse

    I used to own a 3 door Saturn SC2 and thought it was a great idea. I can see this being something actually useful. You would need to brace the frame along the roof and floor. In my old SC2, it was perfect for sliding something in to the back seat or a drunken friend.

    Is something just zooming right over my head?

    I agree with this comment. I thought the discussion revolved around music and not data in general. I "burn" my music but I "backup" my data. I would never trust my important information to CD or DVD. I backup all of my data to secondary and tertiary drives because I can do that on the fly...

    I loved doing it while in college. I made minimum wage plus tips and trip charge. No mileage. I would get 4 - 6 deliveries in the same basic area when busy and just 1 - 3 when not. Lunch time was easy money but not all businesses would tip you to the cost of what they ordered. The bonus to...

    Is something just zooming right over my head?

    My guess is that they are old school. In 2001, there were issues with people who were trying to rip a CD at high speeds and by slowing down the rip speed, the MP3 did not have any errors. I just rip mine at 256 straight from WMP and haven't had any issues. Of course, YMMV depending upon your...

    2g head on 6 bolt block in 98 gsx

    This must be why my 6 bolt from KarKing is all wonky. They are using 6bolt blocks from hyundai for their builds. It allows them to run a 2G crank sensor but you need a goofy Oil Filter Housing. The one they give you does not have a provision for an idiot light but the pressure sensor does...

    You decide what product i make!

    How about a COP plate with removable inserts so we can run it as a spark plug cover and when ready, remove the inserts and convert to COP? I think many people would like a one time purchase instead of buying a SPC and later on down the road, swapping it for a new cover.d

    My current block would require machining and the new block already has high compression pistons installed and ready to go. I'd rather have the new block with oil squirters than keep my old block, bore it out .02 over, and hone the cylinders.My 2G head is already machined for a 6 bolt...

    Brake problem...makes me cringe! VIDEO

    In fact, many shops don't turn rotors anymore. The intermittent scraping sound is exactly what I've heard in the few times I've had warped rotors (breaking too hard on cheap autozone or factory rotors). BTW, my wife drives our automatic jeep with 2 feet and warps rotors from time to time. I...
