  1. Unique interior idea here! Color change paint!

    Hey, I was just wondering if anybody ever thought of using color change paint for their interior pieces? Have you ever seen pics of it being done before?:thumb:
  2. [RESOLVED] Help identify this front strut brace...

  3. [RESOLVED] Help identify this front strut brace...

    Thanks for the replies everybody!DSM Jeff - That strut tower brace looks great! If you ever wanted to get rid of it, I don't think you would have any problem :thumb:In the mean time, I'll be keeping an eye out for that GReddy brace. Hopefully one turns up...Thanks again
  4. [RESOLVED] Help identify this front strut brace...

    After searching through many threads, I found a front strut bar that looks halfway decent. Problem is, I have no idea what brand it is or who owns this DSM. Any ideas?Thanks :)
  5. Is this resistor correct for a knock LED? Quick!!!

    I just installed a knock led with the following parts from radio shack...The light: 5mm blue LED 3.7 volt / 20ma / 2600mcdThe resistor: 100-Ohm resistor at 1/2 watt / 5% toleranceWhen the LED turned on it almost blinded me! Is this the correct size resistor to use inline with...

    Initial Refill Capacity for 1990-1992 Stealth: 4.5 Liters / 4.8 Quarts**With the engine at operating temperature, shift transmission through all gears. Check fluid level in PARK and add fluid as needed:thumb:
  7. Engine break in: Seat the rings... How?

    Currently I am helping a friend rebuild his engine. Its a 6bolt 2.0TC turbo engine out of his GSX. Heres the question:In the owners manual it says when you first start the engine, you want to hold the rpm at 2000rpm for a short period of time(cant remember what it said). Then when you get...
  8. Will New RCA's Remove Alternator Noise?

    The Alphasonik amplifier that you have is a class A/B amplifier. This means it will be around 50% through 60% efficient which becomes a deciding factor in choosing the correct wire size. Looking at your specs of the Alphasonik amplifier, a 1200W amplifier (class A/B) would typically recommend a...
  9. Will New RCA's Remove Alternator Noise?

    How exactly did you ground the amplifier? Make sure that the ground cable is the same gauge as the power wire and as short as possible. If you have the amplifier grounded to one of the seat belt bolts, this may also be part of your problem. The "Basic Car Audio Electronics" website has some...
  10. Vacuum removal

    The plugs are actually what's called a vacuum cap. Most, if not all autopart stores should carry them.If you need additional vacuum hose and wish to switch from the factory lines, RRE carries what's called "The Larson Silicone Hose Kit". For $40, it comes pretty complete with more than...
  11. Finally fresh pictures of my DSM... And my jet fighter cockpit :-)

    Thanks for the compliments everybody! I wasn't expecting that many replies :)I'll try to answer everybody’s questions...The CD player was kind of a unique install. I removed the dash and had to trim under the dash panel to make enough room so that the CD player would mount flush and...
  12. Finally fresh pictures of my DSM... And my jet fighter cockpit :-)

    Here are a couple more pictures. The engine bay is kind of cluttered right now, I haven't had time to get my hose mess straightened out yet.
  13. Finally fresh pictures of my DSM... And my jet fighter cockpit :-)

    Hey everybody, it has been a long time since I have posted pictures of my DSM so I figured it was about time! I have been so busy with work and everything else that it hasn’t left me much time for the important things! Anyways, the Talon has quite a few new modifications since my last post so...
  14. I would like to say one thing...

    Haha that's awesome Brandon! AWD is so enjoyable in the snow :rocks: I'm jealous, I haven't been able to drive my DSM since September when I started taking her apart for some new toys I'm installing. I can't wait to get it finished! Glad to hear your enjoying the snow :thumb:
  15. Project DSM, 4-Door Winter Toy and Trailer Queen Pictures!

    So I got home a little early tonight and I thought to myself, "You know Brandon, you really haven't posted on DSMtuners much lately. I think it's time you get out your digital camera and see if you have anything worthy of making a thread". Well truth is, I found quite a few pictures that some of...
  16. Question about wiring a FM Modulator: Power using ACC circuit okay?

    Ok thanks for the help Defiant and Attack Eagle. :thumb:I had the FM Modulator hooked up before in my hatch area, but I think that caused some problems. The reason I wonder is because the audio output was never very clear. I have heard wireless FM modulators that have sounded better. I...
  17. Question about wiring a FM Modulator: Power using ACC circuit okay?

    Hey everybody, I have just a quick question about wiring a Kenwood FM Modulator.What I want to know is if it is alright to leave the FM Modulator powered constantly (hooking it up to the ignition accessory circuit). Will this interfear with radio reception (if I am listening to a radio...
  18. Honestly, who are you?!

    Sorry for the length of that post. Tonight I just had a lot of thoughts on my mind and it felt good to get them out. I hope that wasn't too off topic. I just figured what a better place to tell somebody then my friends here. Afterall, everybody else is asleep :sneaky: I'm kidding.Oh and...
  19. Honestly, who are you?!

    Have you ever asked yourself who you are? Can you answer the question of what you want your life to be like? As much as I confuse myself thinking about fascinations like this, the last few months have been great.Two years from today I probably would have been driving my DSM down local city...
  20. Need help with vaccum lines running udner intake manifold

    Take a look at the Taboo Speed Shop vacuum diagram, it should answer all of your questions on vacuum hose routing. :thumb:
  21. A/C to intake?

    I believe he is talking about routing the interior air vent duct from the dash into the engine compartment. Therefore, providing the air intake with cooler, denser air. I think he had a great idea. The problem with this will be that the added rotating mass from the A/C compressor will decrease...
  22. My spark plug is stripped

    What in the world are you talking about? :rolleyes: Am I missing something?!Your looking for a tool to remove a spark plug? Let me ask you this... What kind of spark plug socket are you using? There are actually 6 sided sockets that have a rubber insert made for spark plug removal. Buy one...
  23. My first Drive-off <-- kinda long

    Hey Zach, sorry to hear about that drive off. I know it must be frustrating to deal with especially when you think it is your responsibility. Imagine what I have to deal with at my work also with new employees we hire burning through paint on $50,000 Cadillacs (happened the other week). I know...
  24. Vacuum Line Elimination

    Here you go :cool:Taboo Vacuum Diagram
  25. Headliner Install! Pics!! questions!! advice!!?

    Your headliner will not sag because of that layer of foam (actually its a sort of insulation) you described. The plastic clips that you removed when removing the headliner from the vehicle are what hold the headliner to the roof, so that insulation will be no affect whatsoever on it.I...
  26. Headliner Install! Pics!! questions!! advice!!?

    1. You shouldn't have to worry about using Velcro. The A-Pillars have some sort of "industrial" grade Velcro on them and it shouldn't have to be replaced unless it pulled off of the plastic. If it did pull off of the plastic then I still wouldn't really worry since there are clips all along the...
  27. Headliner Install! Pics!! questions!! advice!!?

    Ok, lets get some of your questions answered!1. No, you do not have to get all remaining adhesive off the headliner. If the adhesive/remaining crud can not be removed using a wire brush then it isn't going to affect the new fabric "staying" bond. In other words it is not worth spending the...
  28. Mitsubishi oil filter part number

    I do not know if this will help you or not, but WIX makes very nice quality oil filters also. The part number for the WIX big 1g oil filter is 51381. If this information does not help you, then maybe it will help others :thumb:
  29. Are all stock black 1g's a/t?

    :DSeriously though, they are out there. Check out the classified section on this site or possibly DSMtrader
  30. Coolant block off? And vaccum / emmsions ?

    FIAV (Fast Idle Air Valve) BypassAs far as blocking off the coolant to the throttle body, make sure you know the reason to do this before actually doing it. The reason that coolant flows through the throttle body is so that the car will warm up faster when the engine is cold. Inside the...
  31. Ac Removal- Help!

    :sneaky: That is what I was thinking. You had a great post too though so I am sure he/she will be more then satisfied!
  32. Ac Removal- Help!

    First, before you do anything with your A/C removal project you will want to take your car to your favorite mechanic to have them discharge the refridgerant. They might charge you a small fee for their service, but in all honesty it is their benefit (they will recycle your R134A refridgerant if...
  33. Can you remove the oilpan without removing the motor?

    You pulled your engine and transmission without an engine hoist? WTFAnyways, take a look at the diagram I included below. Follow those steps in order to remove the oil pan and in reverse order to reassemble. To remove the oil pan from the block you may use a large rubber hammer. I would...
  34. need expert wiring advice

    The dash harness is separate from the harness that connects the ECU. If I bought that vehicle I would defiantly try to find a complete wiring harness along with the correct ECU for that year/model DSM. If I remember correctly, the engine harness is part of the ECU wiring. The only way to replace...
  35. Evo3 Big 16g QueStIOnS

    The EVO3 o2 housing will not be a direct bolt on to the stock downpipe. The flange on the o2 housing is at a different angle then the angle of the downpipe flange. This is not first hand experience, however when I was looking for a o2 housing for my 1G that is exactly why I decided not to...
  36. New front end! check it out let me know what you think

    Two words... Very Impressive! :thumb:
  37. can someone look at this log for me?

    Sorry for the quick reply (in a hurry to get to work), but I would recommend making another log after you get a chance to get your throttle cable adjusted. The car should see 99-100% throttle opening. 92% is quite low. :)
  38. Waxing tips.

    Meguiars is a great product company. I have been using Meguiar's Gold Class wax for years now and just switched to Meguiar's NXT wax. I do not notice much difference in overall shine or durability, but I think it is a little easier to remove.Cybereye, what is a PC? Why would you chose that...
  39. What does WOT mean?

    aka 100% throttle opening.
  40. Revving a cold engine up to 7k rpm twice bad???

    Even though this is a terrible thing to do on a cold engine, I doubt you did any serious damage. Take a look at the diagram I included in my post below. As you probably already know, your oil filter has a anti-drain back valve built into it. Therefore, I can guarantee that nothing inside your...
  41. I think it is rebuild time. Please offer 2nd opinion!

    Like the title says, I think it might be time to pull the engine again and start another rebuild. Last year I took out my engine and replaced all of the gaskets (except for the head gasket), rebuilt my transmission, installed a ACT2600 clutch and put on a ACT flywheel. The engine and overall...
  42. coolest verizon cell phone?

    I don't know about the coolest, but I have a Samsung A670 with my Verizon service. Best phone I have had and after seeing a lot of other great phones, I would still chose my Samsung over others. Very reliable (from my experiance) and durable (also from my experiance). I did quite a bit of...
  43. **FINISHED**Just Started Paintin the Interior!

    I was thinking :( when I entered, but once I saw the pictures they proved me wrong. That looks great! Matches nice :thumb:
  44. where to get an eclipse car cover? [Merged 1-8]

    I wouldn't put a cover on your car if you live on a gravel road. You could, but I would be afraid that when you go to remove the cover then it would scratch the paint. You might be okay though as long as the gravel and road dust isn't excessive. Personally, I probably would use a cover since a...
  45. Bronze Wheels On a Barcelona Red Pearl GST

    Awesome John, DSM looks great! Both of your guy's DSMs look great! You two did a great job on the rims. I defiantly like the color you chose... :D
  46. just got done painting my wheels

    Zach, the rims look great! Much better than before. I can't wait to see them in person :cool: I still miss my graphite rims sometime, but the bronze is growing on me and I am glad I chose it. Great pictures also, I need to take some more of my :talon: sometime soon and get them posted. Tell...
  47. CD player selection

    Personally, out of your list of head units I would go with the Pioneer. I have had the same Pioneer CD player for over 3 years now (not the model you listed, but regardless) and it has worked great. Recently I decided it was time for something else. I tried a flashy (but had some nice features)...
  48. this sound about right?

    For low, stock settings it should be right around 11.5 - 12.5psig (at least my 1g was set at that).Factory settings say 44 - 101 kPa which converts to 6.38 - 14.65 PSI.
