    4g64 hybrid, driver side axle

    My factory GSX driver cv axle doesn't bolt to the block. It will accept one bolt, but the other I had some shitty piece of bar stock hacked apart with a gas axe and stacked up with washers to make it work. Really embarrassing to look at, and not as rigid as it ought to be.Is there a...

    Clutch damper and modification

    I'm considering putting the clutch damper back on. I have a single plate 6 puck on my street driver, and it's a serious pain in the ass. Only concern I have is excessive heat build-up on the flywheel and PP surfaceI was looking for feedback from any other members with high powered DSMs if...

    Fuel tank modification

    Is there any easier way to join the two compartments of the 2g AWD tank than welding in fittings for a cross over tube? I'm installing an unrestricted 3/8" line from the tank to the rail while still using an in-tank pump, and a dedicated return. The last owner mangled the supply tank cap...

    Anyone else get in it recently?

    Apparently, unicycling down the freeway earns you some shiny bracelets, a free ride, and gets your bike impounded. Under or over the speed limit doesn't matter.Anyone else got themselves in deep shyt recently?

    New custom cluster

    Better than leaving gauges everywhere, I decided to consolidate. The main gauge displays odometer, speedo, oil temp, water temp, programmable shift light, fuel gauge (ironically very close to stock sender), and has indicator lights (brights, turn signal, oil pressure idiot light, CEL...

    Here's some pics of my finished cage. There's 14 points in the cab, and a 5 pt cross brace on the front towers. All of the important standoffs and plates are chromoly, the rest is steel. I haven't laid the glass for the roof yet, I'll be making a full tube suspension next.I haven't put...

    Any tax dudes in here?

    Back in Jan, I bought a used (basically new, but used) truck for 13k since the truck market was in the hole. I was wondering if you can write off the sales tax? That's like $1200 I gave away the the rape artists on capitol hill.I checked around on Google and found this:Sales Tax...

    Ksport coils: delivering plenty of dissapointment

    I bought a set of Ksports from JNZ a year ago, and the car has moved a few hundred miles since then. The DSM is really an off-and-on project for now. However, I really should've inspected these before installing them.Last night I had a good buddy of mine, Dean from Honsport, dropped by my...

    This is amazing

    I wanted to share this cause I think it's amazing. I picked up a 1997 Spyder 4g64 for $2300 out the door. Never been in an accident physically and a clean title. It now has 311,800 (yes, 300+k) miles on it and does not burn or leak one drop of oil. I just drove it from Boston to Virginia...

    I'm inspired

    I'm inspired, yes. I was looking for a GS to give a transplant. I found a '96 GS as a theft recovery I could've picked up for for $800, with only stupid things missing. I'm waiting for a 97-99 to show up just for the body style.I'm planning on doing the GSX conversion. I think I found...

    trying to crank for first time

    I just had my motor built. I put everything in and left the fuel pump disconnected and spark plugs out so i could build some oil pressure but i get this wierd sound coming from the starter. it spins the motor just fine and there seems to be no resistance at all. instead of going "ee-ee-ee-ee...

    Technical fuel injector question

    I have a set of 350cc injectors 3ohm going into my mitsubishi v6, replacing my 210cc 13ohm set. My question is since these are lower impedence injectors, they will draw more current at 12.whatever volts. How will this affect operation? I was thinking about running in-line resistors to bring...

    Aem Ems

    As we know, there are two AEM EMS' for the DSM. I have a question on what would differentiate them. Is the EMS changed only for the 1g and 2g MAS and CAS? Since the ECU is a standalone, it wouldn't matter if the protocol being used is EEPROM or OBDII? What if you had a 2g with a six-bolt...

    Large turbo + driveline gearing

    To take advantage of a larger turbo with more top end pull, wouldn't it be optimal to decrease the differential gearing to stay in the powerband longer? Let's say your turbo fully spools at 3300 RPM and the top speed of your 3rd gear is 85 mph. With lower gearing, your top speed in that gear...

    Turbo bolt patterns

    On mitsubishi turbos, are the bolt patterns the same? Are the 9b, 14b, 16g 18g 20g interchangable in that sense? Say you had a 3kGT (for example) and outgrew the 9b's, could you bolt two big 16g's on in their place for more flow?

    Two stage paint

    I'm planning on painting my eclipse sometime because clearcoat paint absolutely blows and fades, so I'd like to know if Mitsubishi GTO Milano red is a clearcoat or two-stage paint? Anyone know of any equivalant paints (something like corvette torch or magnetic red?)

    Eagle vs Mitsubishi

    I searched and nothing came up. I want to make sure since I'm trading my Eclipse in and might possibly lean for an eagle just to save cash and have an excuse for a body kit.Is the DSM eclipse GSX the same as the eagle Tsi AWD? Is it really only the body pannels that is the difference? Are...

    forced induction piston rings

    I read in my auto book in class the chapter on forced induction. The interesting part was when they skimmed over the piston rings. They insinuated that you need piston rings with a smaller clearance between the piston and block walls for the increased cylinder pressure. Or do I have it...

    lack of torque

    Every DSM i've driven doesn't feel like it pulls. Even at full boost and foot on the floor a gsx doesn't "pull" like a 6g72 or any higher displacement, torquier engine. that kind of blows, especially on the highway or passing in high geardo these things always have to be wound up (for lack...

    Went to dealer for GSX

    Should I...

    I've decided on trading my 2001 GT in for a GSX. I also found a nice clean one I'm comtemplating buying, but unfortunately it's a ....barf automatic transmission. I can't stand that #@%#@%#@%#@%. slow, slipping takeoffs and dying transmissions. If I do buy it, would a 5spd just pop right on...
