Waiting for the next updates on this.Been around for a few years, never had a properly working car yet, and I'm on 3. Got hosed on #2, but whatever.#3 is on the road, and needs work, this build thread is giving me the power of grayskull to carry on.Thumbs way up Corey, keep it up!

I'm hoping for more goodies next year! Thank you for caring about keeping our drinks cold, and phones charged! :)

Great footage man! I remember seeing your car at the Shootout.I like how you have a "competition" hood and a regular paint matched hood. :)

My first shootout! It was pretty amazing, tiring as hell, but lots of fun.Here's a link to my album for this year. I was with the Canadian crew, one of our boys placed 2nd in Max Effort.I've made the album public so those without Crackbook should be able to see it...

Urban where you going? Leave your car, we'll take care of it. ;)

Hi Fellas!I need help! Trying to get car ready for the shootout.I'm missing the exhaust, so I either need help picking up a part in Hamilton, to bring back to Etobicoke, or a downpipe so I can get the car to an exhaust shop to have my FWD exhaust hacked up to fit.Please let me know as...

Tans? Spray on or natural? I prefer laying down on a deck chair on my balcony. ROFLSo it's not recommended to keep A/C huh...that sucks. I also see so many deleting ABS, but couldn't find a good reason why.Also, aren't all these dyno records recorded somewhere, and/or wouldn't the...

Maintenance first! Can't believe I'm one of those folks shouting this out now.Once you've done the required maintenance (seals/timing/etc) and you know your engine is 100%, then you can start throwing on upgrades without worry.The worst thing is when you spend money on all these expensive...

Liking the Eclipse front and Talon rear!

great stuff man!That startup video was good too haha, I felt the tension, and anxiety.So much excitement in a 1:28 clip, hahaha

Damn, worst part about this build thread is that I'm caught up, and nothing further to read! Great work MB! So what's with the clutch setup? Are they going to offer a refund or replace it?

Ditch the fiancée.

Great stuff and perseverance!

Bringing this back from the grave as I'm curious as well, since I have one sitting around as a backup.

:(

Any chance this will fit a HAFE 2G exhaust manifold or will I require a custom made one?http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/parts/b/hafe_cast_manifold2.jpg

Awesome work man! I'm excited for you.Sorry to hear of your troubles, but I'm sure this will make you feel whole again.I know mine will once I get her.Current car is down and out.Picked up another and awaiting delivery. :)

Clockwise = rod is screwed into the firewall Counter clockwise = rod is unscrewed from firewall

There's also the nut that brings the entire clutch pedal in and out.I adjusted mine recently following Jack's instructions and I think I messed something up.Try it the way it is now and see if it's dragging. If not then you're golden, if so then continue adjusting.When I did it the way...

Nobody mentions how these turbos would get there.OP, what fuel will you be running? <-- important.edit: it's not like you're going to be driving around with race gas all the time...are you!?

Sorry Nate, but welcome to DSMs.Also, it's all about maintenance, then these cars shine. :)

Some great info on cooling in here.I'm keeping an eye on this thread.I had no idea having an oil cooler could actually be bad for our cars.Thanks!

Window rattle fix (2G) - DSM Forums: Mitsubishi Eclipse, Plymouth Laser, and Eagle Talon Forum: DSMtalk.comhttp://www.rmdsm.org/showthread.php?15537-2G-window-rattle-fix-FINALI will be doing the same probably tomorrow.

Old thread. Anyone come up with anything?I have a compustar and it started doing this a few days ago.Randomly goes off after locking the car via the compustar remote. I do not have the original locks. It's not the factory alarm going off, it's the Compustar one.Help. I have the car in...

Yeah it is RTM.Damn he sold 'em eh? At that price, wow.I'll be the guinea pig for the pacifica part if someone helps me install 'em. :)

If you've just discovered something that no one else has, and it's that cheap, you are my hero!My driver's side leaks. Oh man, someone needs to confirm this.

I know of 1 retailer that has 1 set left in stock for $300 here in Canada.

Agreed it's a mode that you have to enable.Changing the battery probably reset everything.Your viper should be a 2 way alarm, why would you want it to chirp?It was so annoying on mine that I disabled it.It's loud too.

Shitty man sorry to hear.Hopefully it doesn't happen again. If it does, then you've really gotta keep an eye out and catch the idiots.Probably local kids.Hope you get this sorted out.

Why is it laughable? Because YOU wouldn't put that much money into a DSM doesn't mean someone else might not hold a DSM at a much higher value to them.He has a goal, so offer some advice, otherwise keep your comments to yourself. That was a useless post, and so is this one that I'm...

Great info for newbies like me, thanks guys.Time for me to pick up a K&N filter kit. My car came with an HKS Mega something or other, but it looks tired even after cleaning and I haven't looked into whether it needs replacing or just cleaning.Not sure if it's filtering air properly haha.

Good info there!I think I read that thread before.Curious as to which nipples are no longer required on the intake pipe once emissions have been deleted?Only the BOV recirc?I'm looking to replace my stock 2G rubber as well, as I'm having a lot of work being done to my car at the...

I think he was wondering how much of an improvement over the stock rubber one it would be.

This captures whatever Windows is in the forefront and in focus at that moment.Just pressing PrtScn takes a shot of your entire screen(s).

In that case, I don't see any problems with going that route for $200 bucks.Should outlast the car, since we drive DSMs. lol :)

lol This just made my day, aww man.This is what makes us men, because of those "oh shit, what the hell was I thinking" moments.Hrmm, stainless is so expensive.What's on stock automobiles?

Jesus, this is hilarious! Not in a bad way towards insulting you OP, but just plain old funny!Like the time I thought it would be smart to clean the pepper shaker by blowing right onto it. Guess what happened next? Mind you I was only 12, but even then that wasn't very bright of me.So how...

Isn't she running regular street tires?I think you have a fighting chance, so long as you launch the hell out of that sucker and kill her out of the hole.Man this is really great though, being able to have this type of competition with family. Haha, how many people can say that? :)

Not sure about BC, but in Ontario you have to take it into a place of their choosing and they have a once over on it.

Ever think that maybe you got used to the car?Just tossing it out there.

Good luck man hope it all works out!

Holy cow what a DD!I would take that over a Civic any day!How good are the 420a's on gas?

I think the whole damn left and right turning is confusing.Just say clockwise or counter-clockwise. Jeez! :P

Throttle body, biss screw, injector seals.Did you check those?

Where does this bastard live? Send me a PM with his address and we'll sort him out mate.Seriously though, sorry man :( I couldn't imagine how you feel right now.I too had bought my first car, 1997 Eagle Talon TSI AWD, and she's only gone 6000kms, then she sat. So a total of 2.5 years of...

You said no leaks anywhere, but just in case, I came across this from another thread..."Remove the intake, exposing the throttle body, turn the car on at idle, and cover the mouth of the TB with your hand to seal it. Be careful, and prepared as it will suck pretty hard on your hand. If the car...

Why thank you! I never would've figured that one out.Well we'll see when I get the car back. :)

Eww, that's not nice. I'm having work done on my car and the cruise is being removed and reusing existing cables. Hopefully it's not too light.If so I'll just pick up a used non-cruise cable and do it up.

How sensitive? Does it change the behaviour of the car in terms of throttle response?
