Yes, with the way this kit is designed you do need to get that J pipe. not necessarily a vrsf one its a bit pricey, i ordered one from punishment racing and it was here with in 2 days of me ordering it....just needs to point towards the drivers side and go between the fan shrouds.
Yah kinda liked 99DSMGSX said it really wont make too much of a difference in airflow, my old dsm had it cut and i kinda wanna leave the top part of this one the way it is for now.Thanks for everything again the cars been running strong and smooth since the install.Now for my next...

Yahh the evo x......but let's not talk about the new eclipses hahaIf you look at the picture with my hood off you can see that my front bumper was all messed up when I bought it and it had a crappy home depot lip on it. I ripped off the lip and got the front bumper painted, it made a world...
It's a GST.....it corners really nice and feels smooth when you drive, unfortunately it spins like a mad man 2nd and 3rd gear.As far as the black on the front bumper I asked my paint guy to do it on purpose, personally I like it and I think it makes the front of the car look aggressive and...
Hey watsup guys??ive been out of the DSM game for a while ever since i sold my last GST 3 years ago. I picked up an SRT-4, and then a 04 Subari STI. Finally after not really having something to toy around with for a couple years i picked up this baby. She has a brand new engine put in my...
Yes the cylinder that isn't firing is getting spark. The car isn't leaking coolant and there is no mixture of coolant and oil so don't worry about that it's just steaming and that's why I add the distilled water just to be safe. It's not alot just a little to top it off
yah I am getting hot. I actually took the thermostat out to see if it would still overheat and it did so my thermostat is fine. My fans also turn on. Not sure about my timing tho I have to check it. What is the timing supposed to be set at! The reason why it's getting hot is because the motor...

If you NEED the money and you know you can forsure sell it then i think you should. You have to set your priorities straight, and know that your dsm is always going to be a hobby and can wait. But if you dont NEED to sell it then i forsure wouldnt, ive been thinking about selling mine for a long...
knochgoon.....Is that the type of work that you do??? I'd really like to talk to someone who does that kind of work to see if it's right for me. I wanna design motors And future cars. Stuff like that. I'm just confused cause I'm also starting college soon too and I want to gain as much knowledge...

Yea the MR with some minor exterior mods looks REALLY nice. Its just a shame Mitsubishi didn't put a nice 6 speed manual tranny in it!The hatch STI has been growing on me for a while now tho im really starting too like it....

What i would do right away is go to a junkyard and getting a timing cover for yourself.............youd be really pissed off if somehow something got in there or you dropped something in there while working on the car and toasted your motor+1 on doing the compression test yourself, 15...
Yah im hoping its just that one injector and once i get them cleaned the problem will be solved. Either today or tomorrow ill get to it and test the injectors.Gofer your right about using this as an excuse to upgrade to bigger injectors, ive been thinking about it. Sam has already seen this...
I haven't pulled the code for the CEl yet, but the cars CEL was already on from before this incident even happened so i didn't even think about pulling the code but i will do that soon. i did a similar test except i pulled the plug wires and the cylinder that made no difference at idle was...

Nope wasn't the isc.........although I am suspecting that it's going bad. The problem was what I stated in my first post. The car was low on fuel and being parked on a slope and being so cold outeverything added up. I got some fuel in it and let it run for a while and everythings good now
Hey watsup guysso as I go to turn my car on this morning it takes a little longer to crank over and for the engine to start. Well it started and everything was fine, I was waiting for the car to warm up when all of a sudden it died. I started it up again and it idled high at 2k and then...

im pretty sure i just watched a video of your old dsm on youtube lol............i was searching dsm exhausts and i came accross a maroon/red one with black rims with cams and a r&d Thermal exhaust and damn did that thing sound sick. then i was looking at the comments and saw jjrock so i was like...
You said you boost gauge sat at 3 pounds when the car is off. This shows that your boost gauge is bad. I know its not the main problem just answering your question
No I haven't figured out the reason for why it's misfiring yet becase I've been really busy with work. I bought the car at the beginning of the week and barely posted up on here today.I can rule out the headgasket and compression because I did a compression test on the car being cold and it...
Smog is good for 2 years........why would have you passed? Just out of curiosity it doesn't really matter to me i've already bought the car.Thanks for the positive comments guys
hey watsup guysSo after a month and a half of long hard searching i found my 1998 GST. The car has been owned by the same guy since 1998 and has been kept in really good condition. He showed me about 250 pages of receipts and documents of the work done on the car from brake jobs to motor...
I did post a link at the bottom of the page that is working for me, is it not working for you?So i just got back from the triple A office, and the lady there said we were good to go to transfer the title and everything under my name with no problems.We are meeting up there again tomorrow...
Ok so I posted this in the what's this dsm worth but got no replys. I need some help because I'm going to do the stuff for the car today and need advice. I've been thinking the past couple days and have become more hesitant on buying this car and am having second thoughts. It seems like it's a...
alright so i went to see this car yesterday and pretty much we came down to the last step to complete the paperwork but i saw the smog was 5 months old and i would have to get it smogged again. hes telling me the car wont pass smog because of the aftermarket cams and bigger injectors he has put...
damn dude thats not a bad price......i think your gunna get more people interested in buying then trading. so if you have your mind set on a 1g then edit it to just trade and not for sale
