I was surfing google and I came across a 1989 Plymouth X2S and Mitsubishi Roadster...But with further surfing I found no traces of this car what so ever. Is this just a concept car that never came about? Is this one of the first diamond star motors? I was just curious about the car and wondered...

I made this leakdown tester off the top of my head at lowes using some other methods I found online. Works effectively and for twenty five dollars you cant beat it. I found all the materials I would need at Lowes so you shouldn't have any trouble at a local hardware store.Materials:Mini...

For the past month I have been getting blue smoke under boost and idle so I finally got some time off to take a look. After getting 150 across all four cylinders during the compression test I decided its time for a leakdown. During the leak down cylinders 1,2,4 all checked out only 2% psi...

For the past 2 weeks Ive been seeing blue smoke at idle and under boost, so on my day off I decided to do a compression test. #1-150 #2-152 #3-150 #4-150I know that the standard is around 160psi, so its a little low but what should I think is causing this now..Should I go ahead and...

Alright well after getting horrible creeping problems, I ported it once and came to the conclusion that I needed some more, so this time I went to town. After re installing it, My creep issues was about 80% fixed, I'm looking for that extra 20% that I missed. I think that it lies in the o2...

Last week I ported the wastegate and o2 housing praying I would solve my boost creep issues. After putting it back together I found that sadly it didn't solve it, but made it alot better. I drove it around for a week and I really couldn't take it anymore so I decided to drop the turbo again...

Can someone make my seats black? I can get a steal on some s2k seats and I want to know how they would look in black.

So today was a really nice day so I decided to wax the talon. Then it hit me, I have no recent pictures of the car so I decided to drive around and snap some pictures. Here you go, FYI: My camera isnt to good and neither are my photography abilities. Wheel Gappage to the max:sosad...

Is it possible to run a ratchet shifter? Does anyone do here? Pictures? Anything?ROFL

Any auto x racing on long island or upstate New York?

My previous car was a 1997 Cadillac STS with the V8 Northstar. Boy did I love the 300 ponies . Since I'm pretty sure the Northstar is the most compact V8 ever, thus why I could never work on it. What do you guys think of swaping that engine into a 1g..Talk about a project..But I think a very...

Last month during a snow storm I swerved to avoid an accident and slammed my rim into a curb at 15mph. This was the aftermath:After some work with the die grinder it now looks like this:My question is, has anyone ever put bondo on there rim? Is there a special type that I should use...

I have an SAFC, I did some research on backing out the screw to make it flush in the MAF and also taking out the lower honeycombs to get get more air in. My question is, since I am able to tune for the more air, is it really worth my time since I don't plan on getting a GM MAF?

I plan on ordering both the SBR 2g Total Package and Ultimate Fuel Package to complete my setup. Has anyone had experience with both of these packages? I plan on running the big 16g (ported with 34mm flapper) since the evoIII is on back order and SBR told me it should take a month till they...

Looking into buying a new rim/tire combo and I could get these rims for a steal..The rims are 18x8 with a 25mm offset. The tires are michelin pilots 245/45/18. Will these fit my 2g?

I'm going to look at this 3kgt tomorrow since I bent the frame on my talon.. What do you guys think?\ 1998 Mitsubishi 3000GT

I was driving down sunrise hwy today and came across a gsx with a lip spoiler?! I've never seen such thing but with the turbo spoiler off and this in its place, boy did it look CLEAN. Any ideas if one exists or how I could fab one up?

I'm getting bored of my rims so I haven't decided whether to get new ones or paint them. My first request would be the unoriginal gunmetal with polished lip. The next color scheme would be gold/bronze with polished lip. Lastly I don't know how difficult it is but if you could photoshop these...

Im really not a fan of those gtechs, but this new product they came out with gives you the OBDII ability like the pocket logger and WBO2! I'm thinking about doing it if i can get past the huge 5" tach look GTech-Pro Model SS

Lately my interest has grown for the manual shift boxes. I'm waiting on a couple as we speak but the one that has mostly caught my eye is the TCUGO. I emailed the company 2 weeks ago and they have yet to get back to me. Does anyone know if they're are still available and where else I could find...

I've been searching for a couple of hours and narrowed down my situation to either a turbo seal or valve seal. When driving around, mostly under boost is when a cloud of blue smoke is present. Under a vaccuum there is very little smoke coming out. Would a compression test rule out valve...

I was surfing through ebay and I came across this hideous eclipse...I hope its not anyone on these forums ROFLeBay Motors: Mitsubishi : Eclipse (item 330205949617 end time Jan-30-08 11:34:47 PST)

I've been doing some searching all day and I have not come across my situation. Just yesterday I started to see my car hesitate a little bit before when I went to start it. It cranked maybe 4 times and started( little more then normal), and I didn't think anything of it. Throughout the day it...

I was up on deer park avenue on Saturday night and ran into a couple dsms while I was there..Do any of you want to report in if you were up there? It would be sweet if we could set up an official every Friday night cruise up there. I'm always up there and It would be nice if we could really...

So I bought some Nightshade and did it the right way. I polished each piece so I don't have that matte orange peel finish. It's honestly shinier then paint itself.3 coats of Nightshade, then one coat of Clear, wetsand with 2000 grit, repeat twice. Then polish with buffer and turtle wax...

Anyone up for a gathering somewhere on Long Island before it gets to cold out?

I was sitting here posting on the forums and watching television when I came across this hilarious commercial.(You have to watch the first 15 seconds of some advertisement then it plays,sorry) <div style="margin:0; background-color:#212121; width:423px;"><embed...

Its time for new tires, nothing like that smell of new rubber! The previous owner put on some pos sumitomo tires that dont grip at all, so i cant wait to put on new treads. Ive narrowed my search down to two tires but I wonder if you guys have any feedback on them to help me decide.My choices...

Well It was raining on saturday and I was extremely bored. Before I start the story you might find it stupid and immature but its hilarious. So friend and I came up with this funny idea to put windshield sprayers in my wheel well. So a trip to an autoparts store resulted in 2 sprayers,some...

Well I messed up big time, I couldn't figure out why my boost controller was so hard to find the desired boost level and I know I hooked it up correctly. So I did some research and the site that I ordered this MBC(turbonetics) from didn't tell me its for dual port actuators only. I was...

I was installing my turbonetics mbc today and I'm pretty sure I have it hooked up correctly. The side that is supposed to go to a pressure source is hooked up to the nipple on the t25 where the bcs hose used to be and the WG hose is hooked up to the nipple on the actuator. Is this correct? When...
