Abandoned my 2g GS-T project, need to sell some stuff before I move into my new place.All prices are WITHOUT shipping and I won't add Paypal fees.Everything located near Seattle, WA and bigger/heavier stuff (like the seats, radiator, battery, and wheels/tires) are probably cost prohibitive...
I'm prepping my road course build (just for fun track days and hillclimb events, no class restrictions) and I'm looking at brakes. The car will be driven on the road, but very rarely, just for local driving events and similar things.I would really like to maximize my braking capability since I...
I've been reading through Andrew Brilliant's posts, and there's lots of great info, but most of the pictures are gone. I don't want to go quite as high-end as he did of course, I'm an IT person, not an aerodynamics expert. I'll consider pro CFD eventually, but want to DIY for now.I'm not going...
My goals with my car (98 GS-T) are pretty mild. 280-300whp, but a nice cool running engine even on hot days in traffic and long trips. Fully functional air conditioning is a must, so no FMIC because it would likely cause heat issues. I want to take this on long distance drives and TSD rallies...
I picked up this 1998 Eclipse GS-T from a friend, it runs pretty well overall and looks good from 15ft away.This is my 4th turbo DSM (first was back in 2001 I think), and it will be my last, it's going to be a slow "forever project" that I work on with my kids and keep forever. Once it's up...
I've come back into the DSM world after a 10+ year break with a 2G GS-T.I'm not a fan of "poke" but I'm also not a fan of bolt on overfenders either, but I'd like to be able to run a nice wide wheel and tire up front, leaning towards a 245 or 255 on a 9" wheel. I would like to find an OEM...
Turbo is making a weird whining noise.I took a video w/ sound:Turbo SoundCan someone listen to it and help me figure out what's going on? Took off the intake pipe, nothing seems wrong, turbo spins freely just like it did before. I went down the road and it was boosting...
I'm getting into AutoX now and I noticed one of my problems is my stock 1G steering wheel kept slipping out of my hands. Can someone reccomend a good sterring for a decent price that has good grip?Also, where I can buy a hub adaptor for my 1G?Thanks!
A little background: I'm in the Air Force, stationed in Aviano, Italy....Italians wouldn't know what AutoX was if they saw it, all they do here is rally race, which is cool too. Anyways, we've got a car club on base that has some Italians but mostly American Military like myself. We got approval...
I can't find any sites anywhere that sell a 1G UICP designed for MAFT that guarantees fit for cars with the damn ABS box (mine :rolleyes: )I e-mailed Dejon Tool about their ABS UICP and they said they can't guarantee fitment. I wouldn't mind getting something custom made, but it's kinda...
Hooking my autometer electric oil pressure gauge. Took out the stock sending unit, and I go to put in the Autometer one and it doesn't fit! I've got all the adaptors the gauge came with and none of those work either. Am I missing something here? The weird thing is, a couple of the fittings that...
Why do people have to outright lie on ebay about their cars? I mean I feel sorry that some poor bastard is gonna be fooled into believing this car makes 355fwhp at 8psi on a 16G. :rolleyes:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6352&item=4518560885&rd=1...
I've got access to 98 Octane fuel right out of the pump for just a few cents more than the regular 92 octane (we've got high octane gas here for some reason).I've got the stock 14b, 3KGT VR-4 fuel pump (rewired), k&n, 3" turboback, logger, and S-AFC2. Would you say based on the octane rating...
Will 18's fit on my 1G GSX? I'm not sure about the whole offset thing, still learning, but I'm looking into some of these wheels, was probably gonna run a 225 tire. Anyone have any suggestions or advice? (the car is lowered about 1.5" from what it looks like, it was lowered already when I bought...
Ok, bought my Eclipse a few months ago, and proceeded to start modding it. Hooked up the S-AFC2 and Turbo Timer (with harness) and everything was fine for about a month.Then I get pulled over for having no tail lights one night, replaced the fuse, and it blew about 10 seconds later...
I've got a 1GB 92 GSX, I prefer the looks of the tail lights on the 1GB Talons. Will they fit on my Eclipse without modifications? Do I have to also replace the bumper? Any info would be appreciated!Thanks
Jason
Ok first off:1992 Eclipse GSX 112k
stock boost
k&n open filter
MAF has silencer removed
S-AFC II
98 Octane Fuel
MMCD LoggerNow lately I've been having problems with phantom knock, my lifters are ticking LOUD, so I'm having a buddy send me some engine "Gunk Out" and Lucas Oil...
Ok, I've read all the vfaqs, and I'm going to tap it at the Fuel Pressure solenoid line.The question I have is how exactly do I tap this. I know I get a plastic T and tap in there and then hook up the tube coming from the gauge. It's a 1/8" tube, do I just buy a 1/8" T and slide the boost...
Anyone have any links to Touge videos? I've only been able to find one available for download. It's got a Silvia S14, S15, Integra Type R, R34, and a Hachiroku. I love these videos and would love to see more of them.THANKS!
Jason
Ok, I just got in my Greddy Full Auto turbo timer from ExtremePSI, I also ordered the harness. Problem is I got a 6pin harness, they tell me that the 6-pin is the only one made. I can't find a 6-pin connector ANYWHERE. I have several 8-pin connectors, I tried following one of the hardwire FAQ's...
I checked up on the Dejon Tool site as well as a couple other sites and I can't find a UICP that is made for the GM MAFT that says it will work with a car equipped with the cruise box that's in the way there.Can anyone offer some advice?Thanks,
Jason
Well, as of May of 2006 I'm off to Korea for a 1yr tour (Air Force) and my follow-on base in Yokota Air Force Base in Japan! :laugh:It's been my dream since 1991 to own a Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R (yeah I liked them BEFORE everyone did :shhh: ) This will allow me to do it. Before I go to...
On my 1992 Talon TSI whenever I turned on the left/right turn signals only the one's nearest the center of the car would flash. Now in my 1992 Eclipse GSX the corner lights flash and not the center ones. Is this just a difference in the two cars or something? Or is there something wrong, it's...
I've been looking at FMIC kits and I can't find any that say they are designed for ABS equipped cars. I've seen that Dejon Tool sells two different UICP's for the stock side mount, one for ABS, one for non ABS. Can someone give me some links to "street" kits that fit with ABS?I've tried...
Anyone using this? I love the idea of the cockpit mounted switch for high/low boost because I can tune my S-AFC II for two settings, and easily switch. Are these boost controllers fairly reliable as far as weather changes and generally just holding the boost set instead of jumping around? I had...
Ok, with me being stationed over here in Italy, where the only people who know what a 4G63 or AWD DSM are the very few American DSM fans on base, I am not going to be able to find an exhaust system here. Since shipping isn't an option either, even a catback system is too big to ship to an APO...
I've seen quite a few cars with this setup, how much did you guys pay? Because as I am seeing it now this is what I'm going to be spending:3" GM MAF - $40 ebay
Translator - $200 ebay/any vendor
Dejon Tool UICP Pipe for GM MAF - $200
Dejon Tool Hard Intake Pipe - $100I mean, that's...
I've got a problem where when I downshift into second at any speed above 10mph or so it grinds, no matter how slow and soft I try to do it, it still grinds. Now I've had grinding problems with second gear in my old DSM, but only on the upshift (1st to 2nd), this one shifts perfectly smoothly...
It's a 1992 Eclipse GSX, great shape, 110k miles (timing belt due soon). Already did most of the free mods, not gonna bother hacking the can because soon enough I'm going to get an open K&N filter. That's it for now, although one problem I've found that never happened on my old DSM's is...
With my old Talon I always used 92 Octane and I was running 17psi. I'm in the Air Force now stationed in Italy, and we've got two choices for gas 95 and 98 Octane. For US Military it all costs the same, $2.10 a gallon, so a little pricey, but nothing compared to what the Italians pay for gas...
Today I bought a 1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX (had 2 DSM's before this 92 Talon AWD, and 95 Eclipse GS). It's already night here, so I'll take some pictures in the morning and post a couple of them. I'm really excited about the car, it's bright red and in VERY good shape, has a sunroof, no...
I bought a FMIC. It is a Spearco (or maybe knockoff) with 2.5" inlet/outlet. I am having someone run all the piping for me. Now let me say up front I am not looking for an 11 or even 12 second car "right now" (yes I know the fmic is overkill, please don't lecture me on why I don't need it on the...
I'm ready to do a custom FMIC setup. I know, I don't need it, but I want it, so I'm gonna get it. I see plenty of Spearco FMIC's on ebay for $300 and I know a guy who will do all my piping for $100.The Spearco IC's they are selling are Bar and Plate core, does this cause and cooling problems...
I read a review of a TurboXS basic single stage MBC (won't post the link due to forum rules). But the guy says you can make a custom "on/off" switch for it. Here is what he saysCan someone please explain this in more detail, exactly how this would be done? Im a little confused, wouldn't...
So I bought my S-AFC today and got it all hooked up just fine. Main reason I bought it is to aid in delaying fuel cut. Tell me if my math and logic is correct:550cc injectors flow 18% better than 450cc (450 divided by 550). So this would raise my fuel cut rpm by 18% (right?) as long as I...
For the last week or two my car has been acting very strangely. At intermittent times, often right after I get on it a little bit, the car will bog real bad between 2000-3500 rpms. By bog I mean the car begins to make a low tone BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR sound. Sometimes it gets bad enough to where the...
Ok, this sucks. I've got my MBC set to 15-16 psi, holds steady, no spiking etc. But I'm hitting fuel cut at like 5300 rpms, which leaves 1700rpms before redline :mad: .I am running stock 14b, 3" turbo back (test pipe), K&N, free mods, and TurboXS MBC.How can I delay fuel cut to 7000rpms...
