Wtf? - YouTubeI've brought this up before and everyone said "alternator", "battery" bla bla bla. Well I've been working with electrical equipment for.. .well my entire life. Alternator is good, holds on a good battery at around 13.8v. Which is how it should be. I got a new battery a short...
I don't get whats with all the "split" information throughout tuners. I've searched and cannot come up with a legit answer.I recently pulled my 1g 7bolt out of my car and replaced it with a Evo3/RVR Block/Head. I rebuilt the Evo Motor with new bearings. The Bearings I chose were 92-99 4g63...
I have been told that a knock sensor that looks wet like its leaking is bad. Well all my spare knock sensors are the same way. I cannot afford one right now, is it bad to daily drive the car with no knock sensor? I've gotten into boost a little bit but not too heavy and it apparently is...
MTX-L Wideband O2 Digital Air/fuel Ratio GaugeWell it has a wire made to connect to replace your stock O2 Sensor. But I don't know anything about it. Does it really work? How do I wire it up? I ask because I just finished getting my car back on the road after a long time and lost the front o2...
Just wanna See how good it can look. Having issues finding someone to finish my exhaust without having a very expensive, very incompetent shop finish it. So I might just pickup some stainless wire and tug the car to my neighbors house.
I was reading up on a Miata forum where the guy was asking for the right GM IAT and the guys on there pointed out every GM Vehicle.... Well that was a big wrongggggg! I picked up the wrong one yesterday, the closed element. But I'm going back to the yard today to get some more parts since I ran...
Anybody have pics of where they installed their MAP Sensor on a Manifold that didn't have a spot for it? Like the Evo3? I understand it was made an an oem replacement and fits the MDP spot perfect. I was thinking of cutting the MDP flange out of the 2g manifold and welding it into the Evo2...
I have a quick question for a friend. He just rebuilt most of his bottom end after frying some rings and he did a good job with the motor in the car. Replaced the rod bearings with ACL's. New Pistons, New Rings, Honed the cylinder walls, MLS Head Gasket, New Valve Stem Seals. But he did it...
Ok, I have a problem. I'm about to cut the hole for my wastegate recirc tube. I'm tired of the obnoxious sound and the dirty engine bay.Here's my downpipe:My original plan was going to be inputting the recirc tube on the second bend where it turns under the oil pan. That way there is...
I got these for a trade for some stock cam gears, I have tons of stock parts so it was a fair deal.Anyway,They say RACE On them, have Retard and Advance timing marks, ARP Bolts and look physically really sturdy.Just no brand names. OR Part Numbers. Anyone have an idea? Or their...
My coupler went missing and I've been using it for years.Everyone says:But It is smaller than 4". I have plenty of 4" Couplers including some from FP and they are too large. They fit the turbo just fine, and the turbo side of my FP Intake just fine but the MAF Side they flap around and...
I've been reading the thread a couple times involving the high oil pressure Holset turbos. Which mainly revolves around getting a large oil return line. Currently I am going to setup a stock mitsu oil pan side and cummins turbo side with a hose connecting it till I can build a nice wide one on a...
They never been bright, These are the original AC S7, they came with a switch that changes color and dims them... But its not a knob. This is the brightest they get and its very dim at night time. I want them brighter.Anyone have any idea's how to up the brightness on them? They just have the...
Currently awaiting my Stainless Tube and getting ready to tow the car to the house where I'll be welding it up. So till then I need advice. So far the exhaust setup is going to be straight 3" Stainless Tubing. 1 120* off of the Holset Turbo, to a 90* straight back to the rear diff. where there...
I've seen some people sell some large parts for cheap, shipped... How? I have to ship a transmission to someone in Delaware from New Mexico and my freight quoter just got back to me at 243 for shipping costs.What else can I do?
The top metal one, it fits better than the actual gasket on the bottom. The bottom one wont fit over the larger bolts. And this came with a complete gasket kit. What is it for?
Well I just sold my only small injectors I had to run on pump, in order to pay for the new pistons for my car's new engine. All I have are 1600cc and I don't know crap about E85 yet.So was wondering if someone running the Evo8 ECU on the Tephra V7 Rom might have a tune I can base off of for...
Thermal ArcBeen looking into this after seeing an ad. And some good video's and apparent good testimonials. For 800+ Seems like a bad ass lil Welder.Thermal Arc
Top: Evo3 (9-1 Comp Damaged Pistons), Bottom: 2g DSM (8:5.1 Comp Spun Rod Bearing on one Rod)DSM: The Spun rod bearing did some damage to the DSM Motor. But the rod doesn't look, or feel bad. It has marks but cannot feel any pits or extra metal or scratches or nothing, finger nail slides on...
Atleast the best deal I've ever gotten. FREE (Well 40 bucks to ship it here) 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST Spyder. With some sort of overheating issue. 161k Miles.Popped the hood and started noticing some things.....Evo3 Intake manifold and coil pack..... Then I look at the head...
I've only had these issues with DSM's. Don't remember it soo much on a 1g but I haven't owned a 1g in at least 2 years. But I know for a fact that the 2g always does it. No matter what battery you have. I have ran AGM Batteries, now Currently running Dual Batteries but nooooo. The tail lights...
saw a bunch of people doing it with good results according to them. Now its been some time, whats up with it? How is it holding up? How are your clothes?I started to try this leather dye from a leather shop that I was told to use by some people on here, I tried the armwrest on my driver...
My hood was soo messed up, I've buffed it, polished it, soaked wax into it even tried wet sanding and clearing and nothing helped. Always looked like ass. Well I think I got it now. Haven't seen anyone use these 3m 3000grit sand pads before till the headlight restoration kit. I used it on my...
I know I'm going to get shit for this because somewhere in the 'DSM Rule Book' it states "One shall not slam or stance out a DSM, Wheels should be small, tires fat and suspension high enough to go rock crawling."But I say NAYYYYYYYY! The 18x9.5 +22 Thread a few years back has been my...
I've been wanting one for a very long time. Tried to make one years ago but wasn't patient enough for it. Still kinda not. Well I got some scrap Acrylic from this local place, 3 bucks a .lb. Was two peices I got, screwed up the first piece but got a decent cover made. My friend is giving me 12...
So far all the sites I've tried, Cheapest I've found are Manley Forged 2.4 7bolt pistons for like 480. I'm on a severe budget and I don't doubt I can get 480 extra but how long it will take determines how long my car will be collecting dust.I've so far tried. STM, MAP and the cheapest I...
The listing just was flagged right as I decided to post this up but the ad was an image completely and I saved that.Maybe someone would have info on this car or the owner to let them know its being used here. We've figured its not legit.anyway here's the ad:

So, this doesn't work. I set a NLTS setup as a test and it didn't work. I didn't think anything of it just yet, maybe I didn't enable it. So couple weeks later (last night) I went into the Tephra V7 Rom and set a 4500rpm stationary rev limit and enabled launch maps as well as NLTS which was...
This has been like this as long as I can remember. Wasn't when this motor was in my last car but this car... IDK. The engine seems to be sitting far back. The engine mounts hit the frame and when under load vibrate on the frame enough to cause phantom knock, and a lot of it.Stock Mounts...
I use a OP2 and I'm having issues. The Reflash connector was done just like in this page:
http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/tuning-engine-management/338754-first-flashed-dsm-ecu-98-99-flashing-faq.html.I've tested the connector and its Perfect! So I know its not the connector. So I had a guy...
This is starting to piss me off! The car was running fine, I launched it just playing around in a empty parking lot testing out some things on the Tephra Rom. Tune is clean and gets good gas mileage so far. But after the launch, the car started spitting. I was low on gas when I did it and after...
That, is a full tank of gas. Well its both Sensors in a 97 AWD at the very max. They seem to work as if I pull one or both down at any level the needle still works but it is very slow and does not pass half a tank. The fuel light sender still works.Does anyone know why this may be? Also my...
Setup: HRC20G @15lbs Daily, Evo 560cc injectors, Stock 2g MAF, FMIC, 3" Catback, WB. Nothing special. I need a good tune. ROM I have right now is pretty much just stock tune with some MAF work done for the stock 2g MAF. But car still idles bad. Up and down, up and down.I've been using...
I wanted to do full function with the stock stereo using the CD Changer controls but not smart enough to figure out the serial stuff.so I used this cable:Its 10 bucks shipped through Amazon. Don't order through ebay unless your ok with waiting forever. Got mine for 9 shipped but it...
You should know what these are, you've seen them on your DSM in the fenders and other area's holding the cables to parts of the car. Well since the wire tuck this is what I wanted to use, But I need to find them.Anyone seen these? Lowes? Autozone? Home Depot? Mitsubishi?
Well at first I was getting this error and then saw I had to connect the reflash wire to the Open Port 2.0. We never had to do this for simple reads on the H8, only for Burning. Whatever. Did it, fixed! Read, burnt, read, burnt. Didn't change much, just disabled the immobilizer on the Stock V7...
Has anyone removed the stock Alarm. I've worked Car Audio for a while and when I was pulling the harness, Noticed something that looks just like an alarm on the back of the under dash fuse box. If I was right, and it is. Not bad. but my questions are, Am I right? It just unhooks. Will the door...
I've brought this up a couple times with no response. So here's a video.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypqQlbUfB0cIssue I've been having and haven't caught. Boost Gauge (yes I know its not a real gauge but it doesn't even work the way its supposed to), Oil Pressure seems to be working but I...
Does anyone have experience with this? I need a clutch but now due to the money issue with that scammer, I cannot afford the one I want. I have a ACT 2600 Pressure Plate and the street disc somewhere but cannot find it! Was gonna get a ACT 6 puck to replace the street disc but now thats out...
Let me start off by saying this is the first time this has happened to me, and I practically let it happen by being stupid.Next, I don't know the person's screen name on Tuners, if he even has one. But he contacted me yesterday morning in regards to my advertisement:

I know I'll have to switch bellhousings so the trans can mount to the car. But can it be done? has it been done? Is it just pulling the bellhousing off of the gearbox and switching them?I ask because I need a transmission soon and finding 2g parts is as hard as finding a clean prostitute in...
I've read about other manufacture's having something like this done. GTO's you can tap into two different area's including the phone button on the Blaupunt stereo. The CD/Tape/AM/FM stereo in the older Chrysler Dakota's and Jeeps are more of a bi***, gotta cut the audio going into the stock pre...
WTF? Seriously... I get my car running flawless and pretty fast too and this shit happens.Ok. Transmission always had a issue with the shift fork, however I got used to it and never really had an issue. Before I Got used to it, I noticed that you could shift in the middle of 2nd and 4th or...
