  1. Best spider center diff for the money

    http://www.rothbuilt.com/SpeedDesign/I got one in my car. Love it. best you can get.
  2. 50 trim, exhaust, etc installed - not terribly happy

    I have a dejon intake pipe on my 50 trim and it doesn't fall off. However, I installed a different (longer) coupler as the one it came with was too short and exhibited the same problem of falling off through engine vibration. With the longer coupler, no more problems. No lip required.
  3. NEO RHd 75w-90 vs. Royal Purple syncromesh

    I had a Redline mix in my tranmission and didn't particularly cared for it. Threw in some BG and all is well once again. Much smoother shifting.In the S4 I use Mobil SHC630 and love it. It got rid of the grinds and difficult shifts which is common in the S4 and which plagued me with the...
  4. Factory Window Sticker, who has theirs?

    Window sticker for the Lotus is in the mail.Here is the window sticker from my first car. 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Brougham.Here is the window sticker from my 1996 Eclipse GSX.
  5. Tranny is at Shep need final decition ASAP!

    If you are shooting for 11s, have the extra couple bucks for the scattershield, I'd throw it on. Easier to do while it is out and seeing as you are getting a rebuild, I don't see you replacing the tranny anytime soon where it would be easier to put the scattershield in later.And the 4...
  6. DSMotorsports

    What did you order? I am friends with him and can call him tomorrow for you. PM me your info... order, email addy, name, address, etc. I'll see what is up.They are good people and will ship it when they have it. They get screwed on parts all the time from their vendors so I am sure it...
  7. New York Auto Show at the Jacob Javitz Center

    Had a great time at the auto show on Sunday. I was part of the LEO Lotus exhibit outside. We had 28 Loti on display and it was a HUGE hit. Last year I was on the outside looking in and this year I was able to be a part of it. The show coordinators estimate somewhere between 5,000-10,000...
  8. Magnus Intake Manifold = PITA

    So he forgot to put a note in your package about the thread size. So you couldn't find a fitting to fit because you didn't know the size. Did you bother to call Marco to answer any of your questions before you posted about him and completely ####ed up your threads, as ghetto as they were...

  10. Whats your 0 to 60?

    Sorry to post the link. I figured with all the stuff flying around in this thread about NT cars and their 0-60 I would throw a nice benchracing online calculator for all the benchracers. Didn't know you would get jammed up about it.Being bored at work I found another site that claims to...
  11. Whats your 0 to 60?

    http://www.sjdsm.com/tech/0_60_calc.htm3.32 for me. Sad but my car feels slow to me.
  12. Rebuild Cost...

    Most DSM shops charge a flat rate of anywhere from $225-400 to drop/install a trans, depending on whether it is a 1G or a 2G. Since you have a 1G, expect $225-275. They also charge flat rebuild rates. I charge $300 flat labor rate on tranny rebuilds. BM charges $375, and TRE charges $500...
  13. VPC install

    I have the manual on my site. Please right click and save as...http://www.databurstpc.com/data/hks_vpc_manual.pdf
  14. Installed new front axles

    Just did this install tonight. I got my axle from Advanced Auto Parts. $160 for both front axles after core charge is recouped. I notice a lot of people are having trouble with the large axle nut. If possible, get a decent air compressor (33 Gallon is fine) and it will come off that much...
  15. KNOCK KNOCK and high IDC's HELP

    Exactly what I suggested days ago. Even if it isn't the answer, something to try.Again, my vote goes to too much fuel. 46psi base is a touch high and 83% IDC on 650s on a 16G is a lot for only 18psi. I checked all of my old logs and on my 16G, 43psi base and 550s I saw 85-90% IDC at 22psi...
  16. KNOCK KNOCK and high IDC's HELP

    I don't think the Supra SMIC is an issue at the moment if his profile is correct... Ontario Canada is not in a heat wave, at least not that I know of.What fuel control do you have other than an adjustable FPR? Do you have an AFC? You are running a 2G MAS... are the HC in? What else...
  17. Ever forget how fast your car really is??

    I am the exact opposite. I am constantly thinking my car is slow. I remember the days of constantly modding it and every mod made it feel faster and made me happy. Now if I don't drive it for awhile and get back in it, I think it should be faster than it really feels. Car feels good and it...
  18. KNOCK KNOCK and high IDC's HELP

    What type of fuel control do you have other than an adjustable FPR? AFC? 46psi base FP is high and 83% IDC on 650cc injectors is a lot for a 16G. Sounds to me like you are running way too much fuel.
  19. What is your dream car? [Merged 1-9]

    hot damn you're old! HAHAHA Just kidding. :thumb:I have a couple friends with British coupes and roadsters like you described and while I found them pretty damn neat, I would never buy one. I'll just continue to go on the cruises with them in the S4.Don't like clam chowder so I sure...
  20. How much money do yo have in your DSM

    I got way too much into my sh!tbox to justify but it is still fun although I am getting ready for a change very soon. Something new with a warrant would be nice. I gave up figuring out how much I had spent when it went past $10K. Including all the turbo changes, radio upgrades, tire changes...
  21. What is your dream car? [Merged 1-9]

    Oh, please do enlighten us oh wise one. What is motoring "truly" about? Us "kids" want to know. :D
  22. VRS turbo back........any opinoins

    The VRS 3" turbo exhaust is LOUD. If you also have the O2 eliminator it is even louder. I have a resonator welded into the test pipe along with a perforated cone tip in the muffler to quiet it down more and it is still LOUD. Sounds great but if noise levels are a problem for you, I would...
  23. What is your dream car? [Merged 1-9]

    I could've swore the VEctor was US based... in Florida I think. I remember when it first came out it had like a 3 speed automatic and was fast as sh!t. I remember hearing Andre Agassi was on the list or owned one. If anyone remembers the movie Rising Sun starring Wesley Snipes and Sean...
  24. What is your dream car? [Merged 1-9]

    My dream car since the 80s was always the Lotus Esprit. Pretty Woman, James Bond, If Looks Could Kill, all these movies made me want it more. In 1994, after seeing the first 2nd Gen Eclipse commercial, that became my "attainable" dream car. In 1996 I bought my Eclipse GSX and was in heaven...
  25. Top 20

    How does a [email protected] get you into the top 20? :p :thumb:Just a good 60' away from 10s. Nice.Do you remember what you ran against? My friends 4 cylinder Mustang runs 21-22 second quarters. Got it all on tape too!
  26. Opinions or feedback on RNR, AGP, PTE 50 trims?

    Huh? My SS oil feed line on my PTE turbo passes between the lower IC pipe and radiator and connects to the turbo. AT no time is it passing by the eshaust manifold, downpipe or O2 housing. After a hard run I can grab it and it is warm but then again it has hot oil flowing through it.RNR I...
  27. Internal Wastegate on a 20g Turbo

    Bolted directly up to my 2G exhaust manifold. You'll need to block off your water lines as it is only oil cooled, you'll need a custom return tube, and you will need a stainless steel feed line. Other than that, bolt on. Check my sig for the mods I have along with it. Turbo supports up to...
  28. Internal Wastegate on a 20g Turbo

    I had an internally gated, 38mm, ported, TD06 20G from SBR on my 1G. I had a problem holding 15psi without creep but who does that? Anything from 18-26psi was steady. Full spool by 3600-3800 rpm. I really liked the turbo. Pulled nice with decent spool and plenty of power on tap. On a rich...
  29. Hub Sleeve direction, not a question, more of a warning..

    DSM Manual CD, go to the part under transaxle rebuild. Don't rebuild without it.Is it all back together and in the car yet?
  30. need JUST a sleeve.. where can i get?!

    Call Norco Mitsubishi, Tallahassee Mitsubishi or Conicelli Mitsubishi. Part number is MD749416 for the 3/4 hub/sleeve.You have 5 syncros and a reverse brake. The reverse brake is on the end and probably fell out when you pulled the end cap. TRE does not send this in their kit as far as I...
  31. need JUST a sleeve.. where can i get?!

    Call up Mitsubishi and buy a a 3/4 hub/sleeve. If the sleeve is worn then chances are the hub is too. It shouldn't cost more than $125. re-use your spring and keys or buy new ones for an addition $10. Make sure they go in the correct way.Chances are it comes with a 3rd and 4th syncro...
  32. Put your name in your sig!

    Well then damn you!!!!! :pI don't know. It was originally:Rich Sh!tbox RacingAnd I then changed it to:Rich SBRacingThen it was removed. Whatevs. All good now.
  33. How to get rid of my cruise control?

    You won't notice any power gain from removing cruise.You can buy a non-cruise control throttle cable and swap it out with yours, removing the cc box and cables. I guess you would save 5 pounds in weight, but that is about it.
  34. Put your name in your sig!

    I had it in my sig and they removed it. In fact it was my sig and nothing else. I put it back and they have yet to remove it. We'll see though.
  35. How much does a 2nd gear cost?

    From Mitsu the gear will cost you ~$50 and then another $30 for the bearings on that shaft, but who knows what else got chewed up in there. Might as well replace the tranny seals too for another $25 and install a trans filter for another $15. What if your 2nd syncro is shot or the hub/sleeve...
  36. The problem with tinted windows!

    1994 Esprit S4I think this is being made into much more than it is. it is just tint. It may look good (sometimes), but other than that serves no purpose. Don' tell me it keeps your car cooler because the difference is negligable to make it a viable complaint. If you get tickets and don't...
  37. The problem with tinted windows!

    How much is the fine for?I have tint on the Lotus but have yet to get pulled over in it. I have passed a few cops but have yet to have them pull me over for anything. I give myself 3 tint tickets before I pull it.If you get fined that often, it is a sign. Pull the tint and drive...
  38. What is your best time for a full weight car?

    12.3@116 on a 20G at 21psi and pump gas. Now that I actually have it tuned, I am going for 11s on pump and then mroe on race.
  39. T3/T4 hybrid ball-bearing setup

    Does it slip in every gear? Do you launch it often and hard? It is a couple years old and I did race the car a good amount. It is possible it may need to be replaced. If you need to replace it and get a replacement, I have a new clutch fork and pivot ball I no longer need and will ship it to...
  40. T3/T4 hybrid ball-bearing setup

    Joe, while the FMIC you have is a smaller core, it will do fine. Would a bigger core be better? Of course, but what you have can get you by until you get the funds for a better, more efficient core.The 1G BOV (new when you bought it) is fine unless you want bling-bling factor or have...
  41. this is my band what do you all think?

    Lightning crashes sounds like Harikrishnas are singing and playing with a little folk thrown in. Can't say I like it too much. In fact I can say it - I don't like it.Now the original sounds like it came from another band. Sounds good. Actually has a sound like a band I know. I wanna say...

  43. who here has rebuilt their own motor?

    I rebuilt the motor in my 92 Talon almost 3 years ago. It all started out so innocent. All I wanted was to pull the head and get that reconditioned and have my leaky valve guides replaced. Upon removal of the head, I noticed the cylinder walls were a little scuffed up. Since I planned to...
  44. Nvidia or ATI?

    My vote goes to nVidia. I have a 128MB Ti 4200 and still run my games at 1600 x 1200 without issue on my AMD 1600+ PC (soon to be 2500+ Barton). The Ti 4400 is still a good card and there is no need to upgrade it. If anything, make sure it is in a good system. What do you have fo a PC...
  45. Should I let the Wife drive the car???

    Did she pay for it to be done? Does she work IN Detroit or CLOSE to Detroit?Just let her drive it. It is just a car. If her taking it to work bothers you, let her drive it when you both go out one night or on the weekend.
  46. My speedo has to be off. 37 in a 25. OUTRAGOUS!

    Where you doing 37 BEFORE you saw the cop? Radar works further than 2 blocks away.
  47. Jersey Meet at Hooters

    Sorry I had to split so soon. Had to keep the woman happy. Next time I'll be there for the duration.
  48. any new jersey dsmers ?

    yeah, I was out driving all night. Got home, cleaned her up with some detailer, cleaned the rims of brake dust and pulled her into the garage. Right when I was closing the door, Phil called me to say he was home. Too late. I ain't taking her out again, just so I can clean her up again. I'm...
  49. any new jersey dsmers ?

    nah, it's easy to keep up with. Not a super fast car... yet. She is pretty damn quick though and handling is incredible. A buddy of mine ran a 13.5@105 in his. 264HP/261TQ with an overboost mode giving it 20HP more for 30 seconds. I have a couple chips coming since I need more speed. I...
  50. any new jersey dsmers ?

    I just talked to Phil. I'll give a ring tonight and stop up. The Lotus needs to get out of the garage now that the rain is over although there is a chance of it. bastards!
