Does anyone have a photo reference of the difference between the 2ga and 2gb rear knuckles or spindles, however you like to call them. I have been told that the AWD rear suspension I just pulled from my 95 gsx parts car already has the 97-99 spindles. I would like to know how to tell the...
I know there's a very respected member here that builds and modifies Ford 2.3l turbo coupe thunderbirds and SVO mustangs. Can anyone send me his profile? I need to talk with him about a friend how inherited a turbo coupe and wants to start modifying it.
I've had several threads over one ECMlink for a couple weeks asking about what could cause my issue but no one ever responds, if they do its something completely unrelated to my question or problem.
Like the title says I have an issue with my engine it started to become obvious about 2 weeks...
Alright I've done search after search and read through a bunch of threads, I can't seem to find an answer to my problem.
I have a Garrett GT3076R DBB turbo with a special mitsu flanged, internally wastegated exhaust housing that has been on my car for about 500 miles. I cant seem to get this...
Got a weird one here guys. I couldn't find anything anywhere on the net like this. My car has a new engine that I'm trying to get dialed in, but I noticed over the last few days my boost has been getting higher and higher. Tonight it was crazy.
I have a Hallman Pro manual boost controller...
I just had a fresh 6 bolt engine installed in my GST, probably don't even have 1000 miles on it yet. I started to notice my EGT's were getting high during cruising conditions, so I started to investigate the cause. Began to think my cams came out of time somehow, but sure cant find any signs...
Ok, I'm not sure I understand the whole CAS inversion thing.
Here's my setup, a 97 GST with a 1G 6 bolt swap, a blacktop CAS with a RRE wiring harness all running into a 95 ECU with V3 DSMLink. I talked to my mechanic, and since i have a COP setup he hardwired the swapped plug wire signals...
A little over a month ago I called Chad at 3D Motorsports in Council Bluffs and started discussing the details of doing some work on my 97 GST. A local shops mechanic crank walked the 7 bolt motor and left me needing A) a bottom end rebuild. or B) a new engine. After speaking with Chad he lead...
When I was put in the position of needing a new engine I decided Id take the opportunity to have a few other problems addressed at the same time with my car. Not being a complete idiot, I had an idea and contacted 3 of DSMtuners sponsoring vendors and gave them the list of parts that I needed...
Alright, I purchased a Dynatek ARC-2 ignition amplifier several years ago, right when they first came out with them and decided to convert to a COP setup since I had the extra ignition power to drive the system. Well I've had repeated issues of the box burning out or something of that sort...
I've read through the hundreds of posts and even weeded through a few dumbass comments but I'm a bit confused as what to do if anything.
I just finished installing a ported EVO III exhaust manifold, FP Big T28 turbo (with the 17psi waste gate) and a ported EVO III O2 housing along with a new...
Ok, I'm doing allot of work to my GST this week and one part being repairing the brake system. The front brakes were worn out and rotors need turned (I've serviced the front ones once since i've had the car, for about 25k-30k miles). The rear brakes though, I have never replaced, the pads...
I'm a very mechanically inclined person, worked several years as a professional mechanic, restored 2 classic cars, built several engines even one in a truck that was featured in diesel power magazine. But let me tell you, these 4G63T motors make me nervous. Less than 6 months after buying my...
My car has had several issues that I've just been knowledgeable enough to figure out, but they all should have thrown CEL's and they didn't. To be honest its getting annoying that it's not detecting problems. I'm sure there is atleast one issue that I have not figured out on my own that a CEL...
I did allot of searching and couldnt believe I didn't find any info on guys running a 18x8.5 wheel with a 35mm offset. I posted in another thread but no one replied.
So here it is again.1. My car is a:
2g DSM2. My wheel size is:
Diameter: 18"
Width: 8.5"
Offset: 35mm3. My...
Well, its been probably 2 years now, but less than 5k, since I had to do a head gasket job on my car, and when I did I replaced all the seals, the timing belt tensioner and belt, balance shaft belt etc. But now its leaking again and Im not happy. It was less than enjoyable tearing this thing...
Hey guys.
I have an issue with my 97 GST. When I start the car after its had time to completely cool down the engine will immediately run up to 2000-2500rpm. It's been doing this to a certain extent for a while now, but its just getting flat out rediculous now. It started out at like a high...
Alright, I did a search, and there's just too many "Plug Gap" threads to decipher if there's one in there answering my question. So here it is.
I changed the plugs in my car today, yes the same one I've had issues with the ARC-2 AMP in. But anyway, I noticed that the plugs I pulled out had...
Alright guys, Im getting to the point where Im ready to just take this thing into my Mitsu stealership and have them put it on a diagnostic machine.To give a little history on the situation though, my car has had a miss that I could hear when listening to the exhaust. I wrote it off as it...
Hey guys, this is really a follow up on my previous post about my ignition problems after installing my COP setup and a new Dynatek ARC-2 ignition module.Well I replaced my spark plugs with some new ones similar to what I'd had in there, but the store only had V-Power BKR6E-11's instead of my...
Alright, I just received my Dynatek ARC-2 DSM kit from JNZ Tuning (great company BTW) and just finished the install. I guess I dont know what setting to have the Coil Edge set to, Driven Coil signal or Standard? At first the car ran great, smooth as all get out, but as it warmed up and I...
Alright guys. I first noticed the smell about 6 months ago but it was on and off and very minimal, so I just wrote it off. Well its getting pretty bad now.
I know its not the CAT because I've been running a test pipe for a couple months. The engine in my car is pretty much stock, only thing...
Alright, I did a search and didnt find what I was looking for. Which is specifically running HID high beam only lights. I have purchased a kit from a member here that is a 9004 12,000k kit for the high beams only, which is what I've always wanted. I dont want to blind people with my low beams...
I've heard these BOV's on mustang SVO's and really like them. Personally I like it better than the whipping sound created by most other BOV's. Which ones create this feathered (staged) release sound?
I know its a stupid question, but I dont know much about this stuff.
This is my first car with this style of rear suspension so I honestly dont know where to look to solve this problem. When I noticed it was when I rotated the tires, the rear ones were wearing the complete inside tread row off in a jumpy patter (not smooth wear off). In a rear wheel drive...
Im not new to automotive forums (I'm one of the original members of nastyz28.com), and Im sure as heck not new to wrenching on cars. I've noticed there's a few good mods on this board, and a few real crappy ones who like to lock everyones threads for nothing. I expect this one to get locked...
