New Update:
They say that the car is pushing coolant in cylinders 3&4 when the car is under load. They say they don't know if it's the head or the head gasket..? Anyone have an idea , im just done with the car. I want to get it fixed then sell it.Should I just buy another head and headgasket and...
No , they haven't showed me the old parts. About the compression test , I think that's the only thing that's left. If it is my headgasket , I refuse to let it get done by mitsu , unless it's free of charge.
So here's my update I haven't had the car for about the past month. It's been at the mitsubishi dealership getting "fixed". The first time I took it in and they said it was fixed,( I only had one fan) They switched cooling fan to opposite side and connected to proper connector , and they said...
Hey guys I have a problem with "overheating". I put quotations around it because i'm not actually sure it is overheating.But, when I turned off the car the coolant was boiling and the upper radiator hose was hot. The temp gauge goes up and down while I drive. After a while it will go up then...
I'm definitely getting a FMIC real soon. And as for dropping it , i think I rather just get a pair of 18' because i had an eclipse that was dropped before and it was a terrible driving experience. My car is already low so lowering it is not an option. I figure 18's will somewhat fill my ungodly...
Your car does look much better stock. Personally I would think It would be a waste of money to revert back to stock unless I got into a car accident and needed a new bumper and hood. (knock on wood). Also about the cams , it makes the idle lumpy , other than that they are fine for daily driving.
Yeah some of my boys go out to the edgewater meets. Rite now its a little brisk so I want to wait till it warms up abit to go to meets. Also SIDE SHOW someone told me about meets (DSM/EVO's) at Maywood Mitsubishi on tuesday nites in the VELOCITY 17 parking lot. Yeah I'm definately going to get...

Hey guys , I've been on DSM boards for a while a visit talk and tuners quite often. I usually am on here for info or the search for an answer for one of my DSM headache questions. I recently received my car back from it being on a 8 month hiatus.( it spun a bearing , so I rebuilt the bottom end...
So today I pick up my car after the bottom end spun a bearing and I had it rebuilt. I have new bearings, crank , pistons, ring , gaskets. So I had to drive the car to the body shop. I babbied the car the whole way , going through the gears , no boost , and not going higher than 3k rpms. The car...
Hey guys I Have a quick question. My 1996 eclipse spyder gst just came out of the mechanic and is on it's way to the body shop tommorow.I have to get the bumper , trunk and fender painted. My spyder is black. I have no idea what the paint code is and the body guy needs to know before I bring the...
The gm mas&maft are on their way to my house . I recently purchased them used off of another forum. So would this be the correct intake pipe for venting to the atmosphere? Also I will definately update my profile to include my mods. I appreciate all the help.
Hey guys I'm interested in purchasing an intake pipe and need some help. Im looking for an intake pipe that doesn't have a recirculation fitting but has two holes for the Valve Cover Vent tube and the outlet hose from the stock Boost Control Solenoid. I was going to purchase the FP 4' intake...
I don't have the time for assembly but, I will definately give them a call first thing Friday. My number one resolution now is to don't get scammed with this assembly.
I have to find out wether or not the block is just sitting there, which I assume it is. So i wouldnt necessarily say Im commited. Thats why i really feel I should shop around because I thought it was awfully high considering I have all the parts. And its $1000 for the machine shop just to...
My DSM has been down and out for about six months now. It is beyond frustrating and I'm ready to get it back on the road. Here's where my problem lies. My block spun a rod bearing. I ordered a new crank , main and rod bearings , pistons and piston rings. The mechanic took my old block out and...
I live in Lodi , and I only see the NA 2g's around here.I only know one person besides myself with a 4g63 up here , and i think his dsm is shot , just like mine (spun a rod) Ill be back on the road soon though. Its pretty sad the lack of DSM's up here. And the rest evo's.
Should I buy the wideband for $200 or get the car tuned at Turbotrix for $300 and then buy the wideband (since they are a shop I assume they have a datalogger /wideband in house)
Can you name some shops because the only one I go to is dogbox which is 65 miles from my house. Broadway performance sucks , and turbotrix is usually a two week wait. So who else do you suggest?
I didnt' do a boost leak test buy, I'm thinking for now until I get tuned , I should go back to the stock 450cc injectors . Can I do that? If so , I should turn the boost down though rite?
Hey Guys I have a problem with my dsm. It is 96 GST spyder with 102,XXX miles on it. The old T-25 crapped out so I got it replaced. I purchased and installed(not me , but the shop) a used Evo III 16G (with 3,000mi. on it) , a boost controller , a boost gauge , an oil pressure gauge , 550 cc...
