Okay so AUTOZONE has the wrong part number for the 420A oil pressure switch.They gave me PS277When our actual sensor is PS278They will argue with you over it. LOL. Must have been put in the computer wrong.The wrong one doesnt even fit our wiring connector, and to top it off the false...
So, I have an interesting dilemma. My oil pressure switch began leaking oil, as ive heard that they often do on the 420a. I went to autozone to get a new switch before i saw what mine even looked like.Later, i got under the car and began replacing my switch and knock sensor. (Both on the...
There really isnt a CEL for a starter so that is definitely the culprit.;)On my problem, my car was still not willing to start this morning. Took forever as usual, but when it finally did start. A CEL came up that read: P0118 (I think) engine temperature input too high. I thought the sensor...
Well, just went out to start it again. Just turns, no start. FML. I know my fuel system is okay, i can smell gas after trying to start it for a while.Im going to investigate for any loose wires/sensors, check the timing, and cleanup the battery terminals again.Oye Vay...
Idk if there is any way to swap the mechanicals, but you might be able to swap the covers from cloth to leather.I think the leather seats you picked up are from a spyder. They are made to recline less than the ones in the coupe so that you cant hit the bigger interior side panels of the spyder.
I replaced the Temp sensor on the RS today. It worked! It did have a little bit of hesitation at first, but it started the first try, let it idle for a while then, restarted it and now its insantaneous. I also Drove it around all day just to be sure. Works great. Thanks Anubis_4_99!
As far as i know everyone that has done the EVO swap has used the 4g64 model du to the fact that the engine mounts and accessories are already made for the 4G6* engines. Plus rewiring the entire electrical system is different between the 4cyl 3g and the V6 3g. (not even guage clusters are...
If your looking for a 4 door car, you could always use a 7g galant (same as 2g eclipse) or 8g galant (same as 3g eclipse) and perform a 4g63/4 AWD swap.There is a member on here with a GSX swapped 7g, but as far as i know the 8g hasn't been attempted.Oh, and the Evo drivetrain shares the...
I'm having a similar problem lately. I was about to make the transition to my spyder to DD for the summer, but lately my 96 420a has been giving me starting issues. The starter does engage and turn the engine, and the fuel pump does work properly, but the car will just turn over for a few...
Those 'triangular' holes are for access to the blinker bulbs. my driver side has a plastic cover to too keep dirt and dust from flying around the fuse box. The intake box barely has any air flow through it at all, a cold air intake is definitely a step up.
I never hurt myself when removing/rebuilding/or reinstalling the head on my RS daily, nor did i when removing/replacing the front struts from the spyder, and not even when I reinstalled the speed sensor into the spyder's transmission while the engine was still hot.But when i was on a creeper...
Plus the 4cyl ones actually have a 4g64 that is capable with the evo 4-8 DOHC head. Plus their rear suspension is the same as the FWD 2G's, which means that you can swap in the AWD gas tank, and rear sub-frame; throw in the evo trans, and rear differential; boom 2.4L 4G63.5 3g GSX.
I need to see what the relay block over the fuse block in the interior of a 2g. Specifially a 420a GS/ESI model with alot of options (minus the ABS). this is what it looks like:It is the plastic one with the three large black relays. This picture is of a GSX/TSI AWD so i cant tell which...
I asked the owner of the car in the op/s pic last year what kind of wheels they were. Gram light 57c i think they were 19's but i might be mistaken. looks like a 35-38 mm offset.
I have collected the needed parts for the cruise control system of the 420a cars and the wiring pigtails/relay for the underhood side of the system, along with the dash and column switches for the interior. :hellyeah::confused: All I want to know is how someone else has completed the...
I figured that they would bolt in seeing as the radiator supports are the same. And i was considering an aluminum radiator/slim fan combo meant for the 4g63 in my 420a RS. Just because there is more options for turbo cars. But,
1. How would i compensate for the extra distance between hose...
I was looking into a new racing radiator because i hit a racoon... and a... chunck :barf: ... somehow got wedged in between a fan and the radiator itself. When the fan kicked on, it managed to beat the $#!% out of my stock radiator, but the fans are okay.Ive always wondered if using the...
I just found out that the Evo 8-9 brembos fit under the FD rx7 16" wheels!
FD RX7 Wheels and 20mm Spacers PICS NEEDED HELP - Page 3 - evolutionm.net
You need at least a 20 mm spacer though. It's a few posts down on that link.
I would say the same. I kinda like the idea of the 4g's just because they are also from an eclipse, but i would get them redone similarly to this with different colors:
Thank you so much, YOUR AWESOME! Is that your car? What rotors did you use, OEM 3000GT, or EVO 8-9? Cause idk if the rear 3kgt Vr4 rotors work with our internal ebrake setup. I always thought that the vr4 rotor was too small for our brake shoes???
Does anyone know where they went to get their dash done? Would love to know if anyone has suggestions as to where most people go. Alot of small places offer it but idk if thats good quality or not.
Okay so after some more research I found that the VR4 rear calipers BOLT ON to the FWD 3kgt rear knuckles, but the rotors for the VR4 cannot be used with the FWD 3kgt or eclipse in-rotor e-brake setup. However FWD 3kgt rotors can be used on an eclipse if the calipers do bolt up to our rear end...
So I was wondering what the size of the 6pot brembo rotors were and all i could come up with was:So assuming this is correct, the fronts are about .7" larger than the 14" 04-07 cts-v 4pot caliper.
And also assuming that when mounting the 4pot cts-s calipers to the front of a DSM, a 13"...
I still have not gotten an answer from any of the searches. I NEED to know if the REAR 'mitsubishi' calipers/rotors off of the 1994+ 3000gt vr4 will bolt onto the rear of a 2G DSM.I know that the 3000gt SL calipers are direct bolt ons. But ive already got the 4 piston VR4 front calipers...
I just did the same thing on my spyder. To get the alarm to turn off without the clicker you put the key into the driver side door and turn it to the Lock position (counter clockwise) I didn't know that mine came with an alarm either until i hit the lock button twice and saw the same light...
Ive been dying to get my hands on the door panels with power widows/locks.
I have the crappy 1 piece plastic ones with manual everything. My car didn't even come with cruise control.I have a pic:

Okay so I would love to know if anyone has put Oem seats from other vehicles into dsms. I have seen the evo recaros in a 2g, rx8 black/red seats in a 1g miata, and even s2000 seats in a cavilier (wish it was a different car). Im interested to see any other seat hybrid swaps out there as well...
I know what you mean. My supervisor is constantly late so I can't even walk in the door. But i always get compensated for showing up when im supposed to (sat in the parking lot waiting for almost 2 hours one day got paid overtime). I love how they can do it, and I would loose the job over it...
Okay I know that dsms are famous for suprising their owners with unknown options. And I also know that when I tell most local dsmers that I have a factory blue cloth interior they tell me I'm lying and that it's painted.:rolleyes:So I was wondering::hmm:
1. Who else has the blue interior?
2...
Muah ha ha! I went through endless amounts of threads and found pics of a guy that converted them to work with bmw lowbeams.:hellyeah:
