Hello im new to dsm forums and pretty new to dsm's. I have a 90 GSX very slightly modded.Had a question. Anyone know where i could get the red "X" part of the GSX emblem ### i bought it and the previous owner had teken it off. I dont know why he would but i would like people to know i have...
Hoses have been replaced recently and they are warm after idling for a few minutes. I was going to try using a jumper wire to battery but I was pretty far from home and had to tow it.So if the coolant temp sensor is bad then it could make the fan not work, right? thanksQuote:

Okay so as the title reads i have a couple issues that i feel are because of the rad. fan.Driving on the freeway about 4 days ago when I started to see my coolant and battery light slightly start to turn on. As that was happening i noticed that my temp gauge was steadily climbing to the hot...
get what you have working first and the car running. I suggest you look at the upgrade paths under the the "tech" tab above to the left. And as always, searching and researching through the search feature is key. Good luck with your build and this car has way more potential than your 1.6 liter...
Im in the same boat as the OP. Im hopefully going to be getting some AGX's but have stock springs on the car with some need-to-be-replaced GR-2's and am worried that maybe the springs have gotten old over the past 18 years therefore changing or weakening the spring rate. But as some others have...
dannnnnnnng wish i checked this thread out earlier. Its now 10:24 and im guessing its too late to drive out to ontario ### you guys are probably done by now. I am a student at cal poly pomona. If there is another (3rd one) then im pretty down!
i had the same problem. When I would stop or sit at idle my car would slowly overheat. The problem was the upper and lower radiator hoses and had to flush my radiator fluid. CHECK to see if your hoses feel soft...thats a good indicator that they need to be replaced. gluck
clean 1g +1! i say GET RID of the lip. It just doesn't fit nice/perfectly and you want that thing to look super clean when dealing with dsm's. just my opinion.
honestly just get a core like SSAC has and fab up custom piping. Thats what I did and it was cheaper and plus its SHORT route piping too but i got my piping custom from a really good shop so it came out nice. Look at my pics, I dont have anything protecting the front from anything and havent...
I recently had an XTD 6 puck clutch installed and resurfaced the flywheel. Before my clutch was slipping and i can tell the problem is a lot better but there is some shaking at the top of 2nd and more shaking in around 3k rpm in 3rd. Other than that it catches nice and feels great through the...
Upper and lower radiator hoses might need to be replaced as well as flushing your radiator. Check to see if those hoses feel soft, if so that is a good indicator to replace them. My car just had an overheating problem when it idled for around 10 minutes but would be fine once i started moving...
This is the xs power fmic. Search the forums there is SO much info on this kit on here. I personally have this kit but had some custom piping done to make it short route.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/268326-xs-power-fmic-hitting-tire.html
When i saw the first picture w/o the wing I thought to myself, "hmm lower it and it will look sexy without the wing". I can see people have already said this too. I agree with wingless+lowering it= CLEAN!!! (especially with those rims haha):thumb:
From what I have been told and learned, the long route piping wont make u necessarily loose boost since it works like fluid dynamics in that the more harsh and awkward bends there are may affect the flow of air, in turn making you lose boost pressure. But just since its longer doesnt make you...
The following shows where the shop and I decided to go through the front frame to make it most efficient. With this way there are less piping but does have some hard bends. You can see it the picture that they welded a 90 degree bend then to a ~45 degree coupler and then piping to the j-pipe to...
I actually looked into this when I put this same kit on my car. Found out from some others on here that have tried it that if you do that with the piping they give you (the long section) its going to be hard and look crappy with the hot pipe going under/around the drivers side. I got some custom...
1gA eclipse FTW!!! all i have to say about them is they are clean clean clean! I think no other 1g looks better than a really clean 1ga eclipse but I am also biased haha :D
Message - DSM Classifieds^^ thats a good example of some nice mods to a awd 1g with a lot lower miles (60K on the rebuilt) As stated before, anything over 5grand for that car is way TOO much. Just think about it, you could get a clean stock 2g awd for 5500 pretty much which is a much better...
yeah i know its rated for a much higher hp than what i have right now but i wanted to know if this shaking thru high 2nd and mid 3rd is due to the clutch not fully broken in yet or if its something else

Ive always thought that a local meet would be something cool if we could get started.Im currently in school in SoCal but was up there in Cupertino all summer and would have been down to have a meet. Anytime I'm back in town and theres a local DSM meet, im THERE:thumb:
Last night at about 10:15PM on 280S just after 880 saw a white 1gb talon. Pulled up next to him to scope out the situation...he then put his phone up to the window and was trying to say something to me but couldn't understand. He then pulled up to me on my drivers side and i rolled down the...
