For the past two months I've been trying to pick out an intercooler. I don't like any off-the-shelf options offered for our cars (ETS, VSRF, PR), so I've decided to go custom. Through research, I found the big names in core suppliers are Garrett, ETS, Bell, Precision, and Treadstone. Of...

After tuning a couple cars on CBRD's Mustang dyno Saturday, we threw my car on just to see how low it would read. We did four pulls total, with the last two being the highest (runs 1 and 2 below). I didn't really do any fine tuning while on the dyno; tried leaning it out a tad and cranking up...

Looking to get a free 2g non turbo 420a radiator. It can be broken or junked; I just want it for mockup. A/T or M/T is ok.Looking for local pickup only in PA. I live in Pittsburgh but frequently visit Harrisburg and know people in Philly, so anywhere near that route would be great.Please...

First off, yes, I'm aware of the Jay Racing water pump adapter kit: http://www.jayracing.com/dsm-cooling-products-c-13_94/jay-racing-water-pump-an-fitting-adapter-kit-front-inlet-p-216.htmlI'm trying to locate an OEM water pump (no matter what make car it was originally on) that has a 2g...

I'm trying to install a temperature sender in my 2g AWD manual transmission. I purchased an adapter to replace the drain plug with that has 1/8" NPT threads, but the temperature sender sticks towards the ground further than I'm comfortable with.Temperature sender:M18x1.5 to 1/8" NPT...

Has anyone ever converted to an external alternator voltage regulator? I have a 200A Saturn alternator with stock 2g pulley, and get plenty of voltage at anything but idle (~14.7v), but at 750rpm idle it can get as low as 12.3v. I've been meaning to swap the smaller pulley on that came with...

I'm looking for a ruined engine block for free. I'd like to make a mockup motor, so it has to be mostly intact. Let me know if you have one around Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Lancaster, Reston/Ashburn, VA, or pretty much anywhere between those cities.

I couldn't find an appropriate thread to add this to, so I'll just dump it here.With SPC front upper control arms, they severely limit suspension travel as anyone who runs them knows well. After cycling the suspension up without the springs, this becomes especially apparent :|And...

I've been contemplating removing the radio from my car entirely. I'd like to replace it with a connector to use an iPod instead. I've done a bit of searching and haven't been able to find any way to connect an iPod directly to car speakers (without a head unit in between). Is this even...

I did an alignment on my car yesterday and ran into an interesting problem.Some history: I replaced quite a few components in the front end of my car a couple years ago, including the inner and outer tie rods. Inners came from MachV and outers were OEM. I did my own alignment then with...

I'm attempting to buy new wheels and tires to replace the stockers. These will be used for all types of driving. I've been going back and forth and back and forth on this decision for months now, and can't seem to decide. I would appreciate any insight that you experienced guys have to give...

I’m looking for new wheels. Let’s talk about scrub radius.I understand what scrub radius is and how it affects the handling of the car. What I don’t understand is how it can be practically measured or calculated. In this thread, the 1g guys determined that the proper offset for 17x9...

I would like to find specifications on the following OEM relays. Can anybody point me towards how to do so? I searched Omron's site and found similar parts, but none with the same part numbers. Is there any way to tell from the relay itself what amperage it is rated for, or any other...

Hey all, I may be moving to Pittsburgh (or the surrounding area) very soon. Does anybody have any advice on places to look for housing, or even know someone looking for a roommate? I'll take any advice at all you can give. Proximity to the airport is also a concern as I'll be making frequent...

From the factory, our cars have three ways to bypass coolant around the thermostat when it is closed: 1. Turbo 2. Heater core 3. Oil coolerWhat I want to know is how much volume is needed to safely bypass the thermostat while it is closed? Currently, I'm running a 2g thermostat...

I started my oil cooler project today and I'm using an Evo 9 OFH. Figured I'd post up some progress and information in case others are interested. Note that this only works on 7-bolts.Evo 9 OFH - 1230A018 Evo 8 OFH - MD372813Either will work, the 9 OFH just has an additional 1/8" BSP port...

I'm going to be switching to a Hyundai valve cover and wanted new fasteners, so I did some research and figured I would share it. The part numbers for the Elantra I got from evilgsx4202r on dsmtalk.(Prices are from 1stHyundaiParts.com:: Original parts for your Hyundai as of 12/21/10)...

I'm trying to get two pieces cut from 1/8" ABS plastic based on a .dxf file I made in CorelDraw. Can anyone recommend a place to go for this? I will be providing my own material.For example, here: Big Blue SawThey offer the services I need, but the prices are FAR above what I am...

Can anyone tell me why Mitsubishi places the PCV nipple where they do on the intake manifold?I'm installing a vacuum block onto my Evo III intake manifold that is fed from the plenum. This leaves me with the option of plumbing the PCV line to the vacuum block, or leaving it in its current...

I've had this sporadic gear noise happen on two occasions now and it's got me stumped. Fresh fluids in the rear diff, t-case, and trans. The last instance it happened was over two month ago, and it just happened again today (I don't drive the car much). However, I did just drive the car for a...

Has anybody ever repaired a floor jack? We have an Omega 29023 floor jack:Omega Lift Equipment 29023 2 Ton Low Profile JackIt's started acting funny recently - the handle has to be pumped halfway down or more before you feel resistance and the jack actually starts lifting. Also, it has...

Does anyone know how to remove the plastic cover of a 2g emergency brake handle from the metal lever underneath? It seems that they're glued together, but I can't tell for sure. The only thing I've managed to do is unscrew the knob on the top.

I'm having an issue with the belt on my 2g Jay Racing GM alternator relocation kit. My engine is a 2g 7 bolt and I'm using a 200A Saturn alternator with the stock 2g pulley and stock crank pulley.I tried using the belt included in the kit from the alternator to the crank pulley, but the...

I'm trying to bolt on my 2g AWD Megan Racing exhaust, downpipe, and o2 housing. When I tried bolting them all up, the o2 housing and downpipe didn't want to go together nicely, and when I forced them too the downpipe was pressed firmly against the transfer case. Also, the little heat shield...

The wiring harness is also done. I ended up adding 12 new connectors from Ladd Inc. The fuse box has 3 (1 pin DTHD, 4 pin DTP, and 31 pin HDP20), one is just for the injectors (12 pin DT), two each just inside the cabin at each fender (4 pin DTP and 31 pin HDP20), one inside the firewall for...

Sorry for the big gap between the previous part and this one. See my thread for all that stuff.

In the stock configuration, the engine bay fuse box has four 10awg wires (two groups of two) that run to the battery to supply the fuse box with power. I'm rewiring my engine bay and relocating my battery to the trunk, so for convenience sake I would like to replace the four wires with two...

I'm going to relocate my battery to the trunk and I want to make sure I'm compatible with road racing rules. The NASA CCR states:By marine type battery case do they specifically want a plastic one like this or would a metal one like this be acceptable?And for a kill switch I was...

I'm looking for a cheap paint gun to spray my suspension pieces with Rust Bullet and Eastwood chassis coating. Since it's just the suspension I don't need a superb finish, so a cheap gun will do for me. I've done a little research and it seems a gravity fed hvlp gun is the way to go...

I'm looking to replace my front knuckles and all four front lower control arms. For the left side, these are the parts I would need. Front lateral arm (MR296295) - $31.91 Front curved arm (MR296291) - $202.61 Knuckle (MR223628) - $265.77I was looking through CAPS and found a knuckle kit...

I've been looking local and online for these bolts and can't find them in stainless steel.1. 10x1.25x30 6 point standard hex head preferably 14mm head2. 8x1.25x12 6 point flange hex headAnybody know where to find these?

My engine has been on a stand for about 6 months now. The head never came off the block, the cams have never been out, and none of the internals were touched whatsoever. The balance shafts have been eliminated and the timing belt is currently off.My project thread is here...

I'm in the process of relocating my fuse box and essentially rewiring the whole engine bay. The fuse box will be in the interior near the glove box. I'm going to run the fuse box harness in 2 sections - one will go through the driver fender and one will go through the passenger fender, and...

Why are there two high speed relays for the radiator fan?I’m looking at the wiring in my harness now, and I can’t figure out what the middle relay does. It shares 2 wires (labeled power and ECU pin 20 in the diagram) with the left-most high fan relay. The other two wires go to this...

I've been working on the harnesses the past couple of days. First, I made these two documents to outline my plans for the harnesses. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/attachments/hangout/89305d1226607145-my-fuse-box-relocation-project-log-ecu-harness.doc...

Quick update this time. I've finished up the blast cabinet and I've been blasting a bunch of stuff with extra fine glass beads, and I installed my Prothane mounts. I have a bunch of things at the welder's but he's had them for nearly a month now :toobad: We got ahold of an oven for...

Realistically, I'm hoping to have it running by next summer. I'm a college student and I'm in the marching band, so I can only get home to work on it some weekends. Plus, my friend and I still need to finish the blast cabinet. Plus, I need to save up money to replace the front knuckles...

Forgot to post a picture of the new ECLIPSE logo. Looks a million times better.Old:New:Polished my t25, no porting, just polished. I am going to port the outlet to match my Megan Racing o2 housing, then polish that and the sealing ring too. I found a crack in the wastegate opening...

Not too much to update today. I took all 4 mud flaps off. Underneath one of the rear flaps, it looks like it rubbed against the bumper so some paint was worn off I'll have to get some touch up paint to take care of it. I polished my hood prop and my brother's too, turned out pretty good. I...

Nine and a half hours of work to coat all these. HUGE THANKS to Kevin (ubpiped) and his wife for helping me powdercoat these. I was there all day and Kevin devoted his whole day off work to doing this for me. What a guy! The pieces didn't turn out quite "professional quality" but I love how...

I removed the Mitsubishi, GSX, and ECLIPSE logos from the back of the car. For the Mitsubishi and GSX I used a heat gun (very lightly heating it) and a fingernail. The ECLIPSE required more heat and I used a credit card to scrape the letters off. I marked the position of the logo so I can put...

The interior is done. I put all the panels back in except for the middle one in the trunk. My hatch didn't pop open the first time I opened it today so I adjusted the tab that holds the spring. I left the panel off for further adjustment if needed. Because I got rid of the black hunk of...

I went over all of the places that had sound deadening and made sure I got every speck of it off with the putty knife. Then I hit the spots several times with Goo Gone to make sure they were clean as can be. Then I vacuumed the whole interior and washed it all with a Simple Green solution...

Since I deleted the winshield washer fluid reservoir, I still wanted to keep the top of the fill tube so I didn't have a hole in the hatch. Now, there is no problem just putting that piece back in as is, but I wanted to make sure that in case someone ever tried to put fluid down there, I...

The sound deadening on the backside of the rear wheel wells was another PITA part. I used a heat gun and putty knife to scrape it off, but a lot of yellow glue was left behind. Goo Gone and Goof Off did nearly nothing to get this stuff off, so I resorted to using a plastic scraper to scrape it...

Blasted more parts tonight. This all took about 4 hours including the time waiting for the compressor to cool down.I really should change the title...I initially started the thread to highlight the relocation because of the people who have done this before, only a few of them have...
