Im close to finishing up my 4g swapped mirage.I guess basically think of it as a 1990 talon with a 91 4g63 swap with all sensors. The 90 harness has a few different plug ins compared to the 91.Things I have finished wiring are the tps and the cas.
Now I believe im just stuck with the...
Thank you! I actually found that right after I posted this. Yes, they were correct for that year harness but I needed the different plug ins. I wired up the new plug ins and im good to go. Although I do have another problem...
I just bought a 4g63 swapped 95 mirage. The harness in it is a complete hack job. My buddy gave me his spare 1g engine harness to put in the mirage.I pulled the hacked harness out of the mirage and compared it to the unmolested harness. Every plug in was exact except for the tps and cas...
I swapped a 95 motor into my 99 gst. I cut the plug I needed from a junkyard and soldered it on. Firing order changes to 3-2-4-1 if I remember right. But it fired right up and it's still running. Although I do have a bogging issue but I doubt it has to do anything with the cas.
I don't have a wideband. 16g is only set at 12psi since I'm still on stock injectors and pump. It still bogged even when it was completely stock from stock air box to stock exhaust. So I know the 16g isn't the problem. Also I may add, when the car is bogging bad the exhaust even has a different...
I'm having a very weird bogging issue under 3k rpm. It's a 99 gst auto with a 95 7 bolt swap with a rewired cas, 3" turbo back exhaust, eBay intake, and a evo 3 16g turbo.Car is very sluggish under 3k rpm. You can put a load on it and say build 10psi and it still feels very sluggish until it...
Im having a problem with my auto 2g gst. Just here recently I could tell it started to slip from driving from a complete stop. It also seems like its shifting harder then usual.I'm bummed out on it and im not sure where to check into first. I just got the car running and ive drivin it...
No, I actually met up with a guy to buy a Ecu and that guy just happened to be his best friend. He told
Me everything about it. After he told me everything he told me to still go check it out cause its still a nice car. Wasn't worth trading for in my opinion after I heard that story.At the...
Very late update. I found out the real story of the car. I got ahold of one of the owners friends and he told me everything. The guy ran it out of oil and it seized up. He said they put oil in the cylinders and let it sit for a while. After they let it sit for a while they all pushed the car...
Hondas are great for gas. That's all my civic is for, great mpg. I do still have a 2g But I don't daily it.
I figured it would be a good pick up. And if I can fix it cheap I'll have the better car.Heres some pictures of the car.
Blury but gets the job done.
Im looking into trading my 96 civic slow single cam for a 1g tsi awd with plenty of mods.Heres the deal though, it developed some sort of knock recently. Its been parked ever since he first heard it knock.
it doesnt knock at idle, sounds perfect. He said it only seems to develop this knock...
I wouldnt bother hacking up the stock exhaust. You could do it to make it louder if your wanting that. I bought my car in stock form. I kept my stock catback unmolested so I could keep it and made my own custom exhaust cheap. You could feel a little gain but it wasnt enough to go "woo"...
My adjustment screw was easy to turn. When I ran the ngr type s my car was stock except for intake and exhaust. I actaully had to have mine almost adjusted all the way out to make that famous type s sound and it didn't leak. Like LandoAWD said, open it up and check the diaphram.
I understand what you mean. Your trying to get it to flutter for a starting point to fine adjust it. What sound is your bov making then if its not fluttering? If its not a type s sound or a fluttering sound, do you think its compressor surge?
I've been through a few bov's. I had a ssqv...
update.
I got an xspower exhaust manifold, ebay "50 trim" turbo, feed and return line, emusa 38mm wastegate, and pte 680 injectors for $200.It all came off of a awd 1g. He claimed he ran low 12's with these parts. He also told me he ran with this setup for about 6 months.
I know the...
I bought some injectors off craigslist from a dsm'r.
He told me they were pte 680 injectors. I picked them up for like 50 bucks.
I just want to verify if they are pte 680 injectors or something else?Heres some pics:
I own a HF 90 amp welder. It works great for what I need it to do. However if you buy one, get rid of the junk wire that comes with it. As someone else stated, go to home depot and buy lincoln flux core wire. It works so much better for me. Keep in mind its a cheap welder. Welds dont look...
I'd say around 2" drop, maybe more. It looks alot lower in person. It's lowered on eBay coilover sleeves. It rides awesome in the front. The rear is pretty stiff. The only reason why I put them on is because I got them for free and a had a extra set of struts. I was pretty surprised when I put...
Crank and block are in great condition. I'm going to use 1g Rods with 2g pistons. I have a spare 7 bolt head that I'm going to use on it. I'll have more pics up when I get back home and working on it.
Just picked up a 6 bolt for 80 bucks. Im positive its non turbo but for 80 bucks, you cant beat it.
The guy I bought it off of said it was "locked up". He said it would barely turn.Well I pulled the head off and found out it wasnt "locked up"
Theres other problems.
Ive been in and out of dsm's for years. I've owned several of them. I just got my most recent one back in april. I've always planned on doing a little street build with it.My girlfriend always liked the way they have looked. I let her drive mine for awhile and she fell in love with...
Exactly, that's what I had in mind. I've blew couplers before. When blowing couplers I would notice a very rich smell of fuel and the smoke was black. This smoke is white with a tad of blue tint to it. I smell the burning oil very strong.
Just out of thought. Could I have blew the seals in...
I was actually trying to get the car ready for Muncie dragway since all my friends were going. I put a few gallons in to make sure it would perform it's best. I knew it took away some knock. I've seen 1g's with a setup similar to mine and the times they ran were pretty impressive for just...
Yea, I had a problem with a cat on my 2003 nissan sentra ser spec v.
The cat is right off the headers on those cars. They like to suck the stuff out of the cat into the motor and ruin the cylinder walls. Then causes it to smoke and used alot of oil.Did a boost leak test. I found a few...
I understand where your coming from with fouled plugs from the random miss. But that wouldnt have anything to do with burning oil. 14b has very minimal shaft play. Just a little up/down, no in/out at all. So im not sure if it could be the turbo. Last time I lost this much oil in a dsm was...
I have not had a chance to perform a boost leak test yet. I did pick up a boost leak tester today though.
Just went out to check my oil. Its barely reading on the dipstick. This car never burned our leaked any oil ever! Just a couple days ago it was a little above the top notch. The smoke...
So lastnight I made hard lower intercooler pipe to fix the rigged up pipe I had for the 14b for temp. Drove the car and ran great. Later through the night I put a couple gallons of race fuel in. Drove good, then I did a pull. I blew a coupler off the lower intercooler pipe. I limped it to a...
Today, I decided I didnt like open downpipe anymore and finished the exhaust. Then after that I disconnected my battery so it would reset all codes. I then started it up and HOPED the check engine light stays off. lol Its the first time ive drove her since last week. So I figured a little...
Wow, somebody spaced it out? I used washers on mine because the flapper wasnt completely shut. Maybe a previous owner (honda owner) spaced it out to keep the flapper shut for a external gate maybe? Those are just some thoughts. Anyways, as Bud92gsx said take out those spacers and see if it...
Is the car lowered or anything? If your running stock springs then I would just go to a local advance auto parts, autozone, oreilly, etc. I bought kyb agx's from a nearby advance for cheap.
Do you have your wastgate hooked straight up to the j-pipe? Pics would be nice to tell whats going on. Also, a mbc is to turn up boost past stock pressure. A mbc would be useless if your wastegate wont open up on its own if its just running stock wastegate pressure. You may have a bad...
As already stated, we need more info. I checked out your profile and theres nothing there showing for any modifications if you have any done. How much boost are you actually pushing? Again as its been stated, what turbo, injectors, etc.?
This is true lol. Ive had several break downs with my awd. My only other option of a vehicle was a malibu.:mad: Sad to say, I drove the malibu just as much as I did my awd.:barf:
