Diamond Star Tuner Association DSM Meet

Not up in IC anymore, I'm cruising the streets of Ames these days.

On a side note, my valve stem seals have officially left the f'ing building. If anybody needs to borrow that f'ing $300 tool to replace 30 f'ing dollars worth of seals, let me know. Loan it out for $10 a day.

Nope. I went thru that once before.

its an automatic then? you need a new tcu? or a manual tranny swap?

j/k

BTW, i would consider the cheap ebay headers if you are looking for a decent fix. there aren't that many drawbacks for putting an ss autochrome header on a non-turbo engine. i rock one on my civic!

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

thanks for the advice but im kind of new to the electronics on my engine so i have no idea where its located or how to fix it and how much would it cost?

 

[redleader36]

ok, the tcu is the transmission control unit. its the specific box that controls the transmission. i don't know much about the specific inner workings of an auto car, but i would assume that if a 20+ year old car won't shift right, it might be the tranny computer.

if you want to try one for cheap, i can pull one from the junkyard next time i go (which should be soon)

that reminds me . . .
To Everyone: If anyone needs a 3" gm maf, i picked up 6 at the junkyard on saturday. i will let them go for $10 a piece to dsm guys. ($10 a piece is what i paid for them. i am doing this for your convenience, not for profit) Email me or catch me at a meeting/event.

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

if you can get one that would be cool
but i dont know anyone in the omaha area thats a DSMer so i might have to find help
unless you want to make the trip haha
ill go look into where mine is located at
how much would you want for the one from junkyard?

 

[gs-t SPYDER]

92 eclipse ive got an almost complete 92 tsi awd just tell me what you need and ill let you know what i have oh and if anyone has a maf translator they just might not be using hit me up

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

i need a new set of headers, a TCU, might need new pulleys, side skirts and a passenger fender, passenger turn signal, and maybe a drivers seat and steering wheel
my car has alot of wear and tear on it
heres a pic it is pretty stock with the exception of some internal block work

 

[PIMking]

hey I got no problem getting the parts to you its just going to have to wait. I have to fix that Intermediate shaft Drivers side axle bracket bolts crap and get it track worthy. Hope to hit the 12's

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

like bringing them to me?
good luck on the 12's

 

[gs-t SPYDER]

So hows that DSMLINK? I bet its awsome good luck on the 12's

 

[Nekoni]

Does anybody have a clean, straight, zero rust hatch for a 90-94 with spoiler holes they'd be willing to sell? Color doesn't matter, doesn't need glass, wiper motor or anything.

[92_eclipse_GS]

found a little ad here for some new racing headers for your 2.0
89-94 ECLIPSE TALON 2.0L NON TURBO 4-2-1 RACING HEADER

 

[the "laser"]

i like your rims guy. next thing i would get are a brake package so it will look cleaner. the rims go well with the car, black on white is a pretty good choice.

The stock spoiler holes. Also, not a fan of full black wheels.

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

i would like them more if i had chrome lip but oh well there nice for how much i paid
also im going to a salvage yard soon ill look for a rust free 1G hatch with the holes
otherwise i might sell you mine

 

[Nekoni]

Cool, thanks GS, if you ever want those wheels powder coated a different color, I know the people for the job.. Also, I registered for the Forums and never got a damn email back!

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

yea it takes a day or two
and im keeping my eyes open for a rust free hatch for you
just curious why do you need it?
i need a new headliner if anyone has one in good/new shape

 

[Nekoni]

I've got rust starting on a seam and I want another hatch just in case they can't 100% take care of it.

 

[92_eclipse_GS]

oh yea thats no good
well ill keep an eye on all the hatches i find
how much would that powder coat job cost?

 

[Nekoni]

I'll have to ask them next time I'm in there, they did my whole rear axle out of my truck (sandblast and all) for like, $80.
