Well, i'm not 100% sure its a capacitor, but... There is a silver round piece that looks like gets grounded on the intake manifold of a 2g. I did a 6bolt swap and must not have tighten it down properly, and because it was lose, it was causing my IGN fuse to constantly blow. I removed it and...

Rebuilding a 2.0 and ordered OEM gaskets from extremepsi. I've put light RTV or gasket spray on gaskets before just to make sure they seal, but I wonder if thats really neccissary? I just don't want the front case or the rear main to leak for obvious reasons.
I'm reinstalling my evap for smog reasons and I tried looking at the Taboo diagram and got a little confused. Can anyone verify if this is correct? Here are the 3 part's I'm confused on and am guessing they go as follows:1: Vented
2: Intake Hose going to turbo
3: Evap Solinoid on...
96 TSI AWD 5spdI'm repairing the wiring harness in this car. I got a full harness from a 98 GSX. I was able to repair the radio harness, but there seems to be a plug right next to it on the 96 that isn't on the 98. Can anyone help figure out what this is?It looks very similar to the...
This 2g shell has bondo on the rear quarters due to the previous owner installing blitz side skirts. I tore off what I could, but theres a good amount of bondo left. I don't want to damage the body, can I get some tips on what tools/materials I should use to restore it as best as possible...
Can the rear cover of a 1G diff bolt onto a 2G rear diff? I may be getting a 2G rear diff that works, but the rear cover is cracked. It's alot easier to find a 1G rear diff than it is a 2G, so I was thinking I can just swap the rear cover if it's possible.thanks.
I purchased a non-running 95 2g which ran out of oil. Perfect time to do a complete 6bolt swap. Mind you I've done this swap procedure on 3 cars before without problems. But since I do not know the history of this cars past, I'm having trouble diagnosing.Problem: Rich idle condition with...
It's been a while since I posted on here because I've moved on to a different project car (after owning 6 different DSM's over the past 6 years) I'm hoping to come back to the DSM community, just not in an Eclipse or a Talon. Rather a converted Mirage to an Evo 3 (or an Evo5 if I can find a...
I was just wondering, is someone were to install a 2.4 setup on a stock fuel system, would there be any adverse effects? Would it run leaner, or would it be the same since the stock ecu requires x to intake, and x to output?This doesn't really pertain to a dsm I'm using, just wondering as...
I'm sending my 2.4L block to get build as well as a 2.0L for a standard build. My question is why are the Wiseco pistons for my 2.4L listed as .020 and the Topline listed at .20 over? Do they really mean .20 over? Or are they both actually .020? I'm concerned about this as I want to make...
I was pretty sure that if you have a 2G and your using a 1G head, you can still use the 2G 7bolt 11mm ARP head studs. I thought I did this procedure before (and I have to do it again) but it's been so long and I want to make sure.ALSOI have to use a 6bolt bottom with a 2G head for...
I tried going on COMETIC's website (http://www.cometic.com/index.htm) and looking for a partnumber for the G4CS block I'm building. The only thing they have listed in their catalog is:GALANT, EXPO, SPACE WAGON 1993-96 / 4G64K 2.4 LITER / 88MM/ COPPER / C4213-50I'm assuming this gasket...
I pulled this motor out thinking this was going to be my project 6bolt rebuild...only to find out that when I pulled the head, it didn't have 63T pistons. Wth?? Looked on the front label (which is what I should have done in the first place) and sure enough, in big letters that seemed to glow in...
I want to be sure I order everything I need before sending in the shortblock to be machined and I wasn't sure if I should get undercut rod bearings if I'm using my stock crank with H-beams? Here's my Order Cart:ARP 6-bolt Rod Bolts
ARP 6-bolt Main Studs
ARP 6-Bolt Head Studs

Refrencing my 92awd. I looped this line because I modified my 92 to have a oil cooler and a oil-cooled turbo so these lines are no longer needed. When I was driving to work, the line I had on there broke. I went to autozone real quick and put a sturdier line there just to get me to work. So...
I'm not sure why I'm having such a difficult time seperating the 2 sections of the turbo. On these Tdo5h's, they are only held on by that V-band clamp, right? Just unbolt that small screw, seperate the clamp and the turbine housing should pull straight out, shouldn't it? I've tried at it for...
There's an odd grinding-like sound from the passenger side front wheel hub area I can't seem to locate. It sounds similar to a warped rotor grinding on a backplate, but it doesn't follow RPM. If I go over a bump sometimes, I can reproduce the sound audibly louder, so I know it's something that...
I have a AWD 1992 Federal 5speed DSM. I recently bought an eprom 92 ECU off ebay, but it's for a FWD 1992 Federal AUTO DSM (MD165529). Is the only difference the injector code? Any difference in the 5speed vs AUTO code? I have a chip programmer so I just want to make sure I'm not skipping...
I can't figure out which is the correct path since I just bought this 92 AWD FEDERAL car and need to smog it here in CA. The 2 lines that are confusing me are Yellow and the Green middle vacuum lines. Can anyone look under their hood or verify the correct vacuum path?Here is what the PDF...
Here's my old baby :(So I had to replace her with something:She might not be as Purdy as my old 2G...but it will be soon :thumb: Anyway I can change my name to My2AWDs ?
Picked up a black 92 with a mysterious turbo setup.TURBO:
The compressor housing doesn't have any numbers and the backplate of it is blue. The previous owner said the guy who sold it to him told him it was ac Innovative turbo but even they aren't quite sure. From the looks of the...
I recently got a 92 6bolt/4bolt and I'm wondering if the 90 air-cooled oil cooler and oil filter housing will bolt up to the 92? I'd like to do this mod also so I can run a 90 N/A waterpipe and waterneck since the TO4E on it is oil cooled. Should make things alot cleaner under the hood...
Daily driving my 90gsx tranny is perfect. But when I go WOT after a launch and need to go into 2nd, its like the shifting point is not only farther down, but its very difficult to get into. Hard to explain but heres a dummys drawing:Daily Driving:
<1st gear>==N==<----2nd shift room...
Found some fun in the drag section of GT4 and it's pretty amazing how much power you can squeeze out on suspension tuning alone! On the Galant VR4, it was pretty frustrating getting 10.5 with powermods maxed out and Nitrous. Did some suspension work and I got my beast down to:9.945@142mph...
I may be interested in replacing my pistons on my 1G with stock-sized forged tops, but I'd like to keep my rods since I don't plan on making much more power then what I've already put down. For those that have done this process before can you offer any tips? From what it looks like, could I...
I want to post 2 dyno charts soon. One with me dropping in 101200 cams in, then another with some degreeing to show a gain/loss. My main concern isn't really daily drivabilty, just WOT power. With the Comps already being somewhat close to stock degreeing out of the box, can I get away with...
Just thought you guys might like to know what I got yesterday on the dyno untuned on an INTERNALLY gated v-trim on my 1g. Completely stock 6bolt, stock 90 camshafts, blah blah (mods in profile). 24psi on about 95 octane. After doing the pull, we found out that I was BELOW a 10:1 rich-ass fuel...
I've search Tuners and Talk and I'm ready to order the 1ga chin spoiler someone created a year or so back, but I didn't bookmark the page. Is it gone from the face of the DSM World? Anyone have a used one or know where I can order it? It looked similar to this, but the sides came down a bit...
When I start the car, everything looks fine. When I WOT it even at Idle, it causes the blinking green light to appear (meaning "Loss of RPM Signal"). This makes it go into a 'backup mode', preventing me from adjusting my WOT setting. I have the old 1.36ver so maybe it has something to do with...
I'm not to familar with tire setups. I won an ebay auction for some rx7 rims for my 1g AWD and they came with decently-shaped tires. Only problem is the fronts are 225/50/16, and the rears are 245/45/16. Now I know that on an awd car, the tires have to be generally the same size. Are those 2...
I was strolling around the middle of the gallery and I came accross this bumper. After some searching on the web and on here, it looks like its primarily for the Plymouth bumper (early model eclipse gst's also). Anyone seen this for sale anywhere? (I touched up the pics a bit so it looks...
I sold my entire Evo16g setup and am upgrading everything to support the to4. Ordering this FMIC, I didnt realize it would actually be this HUGE. The top of the FMIC is the top of the bumper! Anyway, I'm wondering how you 90' owners route your driverside piping to the front? I noticed what...
Quick question. I bought a N/A waterpipe and thermostat housing in the interest of putting it on my 90' gsx with my oil cooled turbo. Is the thermo the same? Or should I just block off that nipple thats there now and just install the N/A waterpipe?my_gst95
I decided to buy the shelf model of the new tubular manifold Logic Performance will be carrying in 2 weeks which is displayed in the vendor/sponsor section. After I purchased it, I forgot to inquire on the collector size. Chris mentioned that it was around a 6.7 measurement. Keep in mind this...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7957753227&category=33742&sspagename=WDVWHas anyone seen or ran this on their car? Price seems decent. I'm trying to maximize my new setup on the t04b and FP2's. Saving a couple of bucks never hurts if it performs...
I was pulling out my plug wires when I noticed the #2 plugwire was covered in this white sort of powder, also the plug well was covered in it. I then pulled out the sparkplug and the end looks fine, no damage, but the white stuff was also along the top of the plug where the wire connects to...
I'm trying to decide which camset to go with, but i'd perfer not to have to degree them or having to purchase a set of adjustable camgears. Has anyone installed either of these without having to adjust or degree? I'm trying to max out this T04.my_gst95
My new setup is going to consist of a T04B soon, and I'd like to run my car mainly on high boost since I don't daily drive my 1G. Has anyone bought or ran the PTE (FIC??) 780cc's from ebay? I'd hate to install these only to find out they are flowing at 420cc's on my logger.On my old...
I plan on running 15" Rota slipstreams. I've seen people do it on a 90-91 dsm, but on my 90 I have the bigbreak upgrade from a 94. Does anyone know if they will clear or any other similar rim that light and size that will work?my_gst95
Heading back home from one of the meets and driving my 2G, I notice a cop tailing behind me and a friend. "Ok, just go the speed limit, and he shouldn't bother you. Boy do I feel sorry for Rob, with his body kitted GSX and loud muffler". So he tails us for like 5 minutes, and then I see his...
I went to replace my breakpads on my 2g GST in the rear, and when I used a C-Clamp to compress the piston, it ended up tearing the boot and leaking out all of the breakfluid after driving for a while. This is the 2nd time it's happen on that particular caliper. The first time it happened, I...
We want to try and sell my gf's black 1G gsx and iron out all the little kinks. One of the things that has plauged the car since we got it was an improperly working temp gauge on the cluster. Instead of it going to the middle, it climbs all the way up to the last mark on the HOT side, even...
How much is a fair price to post??? It's getting really nasty, weather wise, here in Sacramento, and I'd perfer to have a 4-door awd daily driver that I can carry into my adulthood (whenever that is :rolleyes: ). So I really want to purchase this:I have the option of leaving it 2.5...
I was putting on a 3" turbo back on my 1G and after I was complete, I noticed I had a tiny tiny leak puffing out of section where the DP meets the hiflow Cat...and also a small leak where the O2 housing meets the DP due to a stripped bolt. The whole exhaust system is tight enough to not notice...
Really odd problem. I checked compression on this 6bolt before putting it in, and everything seemed in order (149-150-142-148). When I started the car, it was puffing out the tailpipe white smoke and I could tell it was coolant due to the smell. Well, I've drove it around for 2 weeks, and the...
