Mods - not sure where to post this one as I'm just asking for advice. Feel free to moveI have seen a large demand/requests from the Spyder community to have a lightbar available for purchase. One of the cleanest Spyder's on here, Omar has been trying to buy one for a while but to my...
I have recently bought a 1997 2g GST Spyder. I swapped over the cooling system from my old car as it ran 195-203 on that car all day long in 100deg Texas heat with FMIC and A/C.My spyder though, it just seems to want to run hot. I know its an airflow issue because it runs hotter going down...
Well, I decided to bring another car home to the stable. This will mean the end of my red car. After getting a quote on fixing the body damage / paint / and my labor and time and redoing some other problems I had found underneath (including holes from falling off jack stands from previous...
All,So yesterday everything worked fine. I drove the car, passed state inspection, life was great. I woke up this morning to go to work and now have nothing in the back and no gauge lights. I did nothing but park the car overnight.I'm kinda baffled because I believe the brake lights...
Anybody know a show that will pass me for inspection without hooking up ODB2. I don't have any emissions stuff that its looking for. Also looking for a shop to weld up a 3" high flow catalytic converter so I can pass smog.Willing to slip somebody some extra money on the side to get that...
Can anybody verify that this tune will at least crank the car over? I am at whits end and thinking that maybe this is now the issue. I've tested all sensors and points as per the FSM.Injectors are 850cc .. latency is .315 to .330 and that has been added.
Only other thing that isn't stock...
I have three plugs that I cannot figure out where they go. I took my dash out about three months ago and took pictures of everything attached but somehow I missed these. Any help would be appreciative.The first is drivers side coming off the dash. The wires are wrapped in foam. It comes out...
So I'm not completely new to the DSM game, but have been out for a couple of years. Previously owned a built 1g Talon that myself and a friend built from the ground up into a Road Race monster. However, I just couldn't stay away and after securing some funds found one local that had no rust...
Sorry I know this is a DSM site, but I am in a contest and need video views.If you guys/ gals can just watch this video about the progression of my civic I would much appreciate it.The winner gets a free set of retrofitted headlights valued at $500 dollars.ThanksYouTube -...
Ok so I know its not called a "Speedo" line, but i'm having trouble today thinking of names for car parts. Anyway, Where does the line that runs your speedometer and your miles guages connect to the tranny. I would really like a picture of this as I can't find it and I don't know what it looks...
Video - Breaking News Videos from CNN.comMs Barton lost everything because of a sheriff and this video breaks my heart. So im trying to spread the message. I have a direct number to her or to a contact for her if anybody would like to help. I may send toys, another person I know is...
So I have already showed you the car, told how I got it, and have been informed that the seats have been replaced. To add to that, a nice clean, non torn, dash has been installed and a new center console. A pioneer head unit from my old truck was put in to have some tunes when everything works...
So, if you read the first part of my story in the "Build-up" section, you would remember that I now consider the 4g63 to be just short of M1 Abrams Tank proof. And if you didn't, you know now.Me and a few co-workers went out to lunch one day to celebrate the fact that one of them, Dave, was...
So I wanted to keep this thread for a couple of reasons, one, to keep up with my plans and whats happened with the car, because there needs to be an AutoX write-up, and because I have a crap load of questions. So....with-out further to do here we go.About a month ago a co-worker of mine took...
I think I know the answer but I would just rather run it by some of the guys on this forum. The headgasket on my car took a crap. Reading 135, 119, 111, 119. So obviously the headgasket is gone. We think it was a failpro put on by another shop. Anyway, all I do to check the head to make...
So me and 360glitch's car is idling bad still. We have replaced the ISC, the Cam Positioning Sensor, checked all the vacuum lines, replaced the exhaust with a 3'' er, and blocked of the FAIV (bandaid I know, but I just need to find the dang problem). We are left with the probability of our MAS...
Ok so we replaced the exhaust, broke a bolt and had to pull the turbo completely out of the car to get the bolt out. We also replaced the 1g mani with a 2g ported mani. When we got it all bolted back up and cranked it, we discovered that it was leaking on the back drivers side of where the...
Ok so we busted a bolt trying to put on the apexi n1 exhaust we ordered. Couldn't drill the bolt out or weld on a tab to get it out so we had to take the whole o2 housing and turbo off. In doing so we obviously had to undo and take off all the lines and the wastegate. Now my question is...
So last night we put back on the intake manifold. :beatentodeath::beatentodeath: Yeap that was really fricken hard. Bolts dissappeared in the engine bay, one bolt wouldn't go in, two nuts just dissappeared, but all was eventually fixed. Our problem is this, after putting the fuel rail back...
Ok, so I have a 92 talon tsi awd. The throttle will stick open after you let off the gas for literally a half of a second to a second. If I manually rev the car from under the hood, it still does the same thing. A friend told me it could be my TPS, and I think that it may be the cable be to...
Me and a friend have a 92 Eagle Talon TSi AWD. It is bone stock, no mods, not even cheap mods. We just bought the car from a co-worker. The car has a major problem though at start-up that I would really like to fix because I'm afraid to drive it anywhere. When we crank the car up, from...
Ok so i posted about buying a car for really cheap but it has a minor problem which is:The current owner says that the car doesn't run very well at idle and will shut off if not kept running and that he hears a clicking noise when he is sitting in the car. He swears it is coming from the...
I have a co-worker that is selling his 92 Eagle Talon TSi AWD. He estimates that it has around 270k miles on it. He has never dragged or pushed the car to its limits. He had the top block acid dipped about 50k miles or so ago. All timing belts have been changed as well as all valves. He...
