Evo 1 Gsr Awd Lsd Transmission In 2g

Misfire is just as hard on an engine as knock, especially at higher power levels. Staying in it with misfires like that can pound the rod bearings, and push a head gasket.

It would be a good idea to inspect the engine and make sure nothing was hurt.


No one is saying your car isn't fast. The usual way people end up "me against the world" is from having a poor attitude with the rest of the world.

This is a good community with lots of info to pass around. An open attitude has helped many members run faster, and stay together longer.

I ask people what they are doing with their setups all the time. If I feel I'm doing it a better way, or have tried their way before, I listen intently and continue on doing things the way I do them. If I hear an answer to a known problem I haven't tried, I usually give it a shot.

Don get me wrong I am not saying driving it like that was good and I am glad nothing was hurt I never saw the misfire coming but was close to the line unfortunately I ended up letting off short of the speed blocks. I will be hitting 1/4 mile soon I love to see what she does.

Don't confuse misfire with knock. It only knocked 2counts. If if should have blown then I guess the engine is built like the transmission.

Don't assume there's no potential harm staying in it while misfiring. For a good read: Lift if your car misfires

The main point of this thread

I never assumed it wasn't I been doing this for long time I was caught up in the moment of finishing. If it had blown it would have been all on me and me only. I would have pulled the tools out and started another engine no big deal I have 3 untouched sitting in the corner just like the big shops . Like stated above I am fortunate and have never advised anyone here to stay in it like that. I can say it until I am blue in the face if I destroy it I will fix it no problem for me I do all my everything from building engine transmission tuning welding sound you name it. Thanks for the link.

I agree. Take it from me. I spun 2 rod bearings that way. It didn't show any signs of it right away. It took about 2 more months of DD and weekend playing did it in. Hard lesson to learn but, I WILL NEVER make that mistake again. Hope someone never has to learn the way I did.

And some of the brightest people in this community can give you feedback until they're blue in the face...But you'll still know better.

Good read!

When that zr1 found out that he was racing me he put his go pro on the back of his car and pointed it in the lane I would be in and he and crew started laughing.

The thing is we heard the conversation with them not knowing I was the driver of the eclipse. I swelled on the inside with I can't wait.

Will do! Hey guys lets keep it technical guys. Thanks for the reminder. Yeah this thread started out with the discovery of evo 1 gsr transmission and how it will perform and what it took to make it work. the trans shifts flawless is the update and holds together lauching at 6000rpm most I contribute to the various processes of treatment I think the trans will hold together for a long time. I'll post future track results in appropriate areas of the board.

Yeah I was trying to steer you back to your Georgia 1/2 mile thread when I posted earlier last week , the one that you started your last run bro!

Misfire is fixed last night track shakedown run no time clock 34 psi. I am hitting the 1/4 miles next week. thanks guys for staying on me to get this fixed. I ended up replacing the transitor as part of the fixed! Log picture of that pull attatched.

These are the sweetest gear ratios. I am thinking of changing out the evo 1 tall fifth gear just for the 1/4 mile, to a shorter awd dsm gear I think it will keep the rpm up just enough to keep the engine in the sweet spot crossing the finish line. I will run it like it is for first track event and then a week later change it. I like the current taller 5th since my car is a daily driver.

 

[bastarddsm]

5th gear at a drag strip? What is this thing going to trap like 160+ or something?

3.909 rear end. 4th gear at 9200rpm is just at 140 going into 5th is necessary

Same gear ratio

 

[keltalon]

Getting serious. Did a little modding today. Time to weld.

What is that? a flux capacitor? Never seen this done before since about 2000 or so

Is the diff already welded?

 

[94awdcoupe]

locked viscous couplers are good for dynoing car, then taking it back off. if you are doing for improved launch its not a good idea. the centerdiff can still break. its best to weld centerdiff and eliminate the need for a viscous connection altogether.

. I have no plans on welding it the modified viscous will give me exactly what I need. I feel that the mods I put the center diff through makes it sufficient for the task.

Not doing it for better launching.

Thanks. Anytime I get a minute from cabinets and the eclipse is relaxing!

 

[donniekak]

Running a non welded diff with a vce is much harder on the diff than launching it with a viscous coupler.

You are just locking one end gear to the diff case. This puts all the stress of locking the other end gear on the spider gears.

You'd be better off just getting another diff and welding it. You can swap them in and out in 30 minutes.

Thanks I have an extra one.

Well after locking the rear and front wheels together with 50/50 split and pulling the center diff out in the process for inspection Which looks absolutely superb. I put everything back together and still have same issue front tires only spinning. After further research which lead me to takes a closer look at the transfer case I notice that the shaft that connects to the driveshaft is snapped in half this explains why the rear tires was locking up and the front tires laying drag. I assumed it was the viscous coupling that's why I modified above all in the process of getting to the root of the problem. The transfer case was completely stock. Stay tuned as I send it in for 300m shaft upgrade order a one piece driveshaft heck upgrade the axles as well, they are slinging grease everywhere under the car. I will also go ahead and take it through the same process as the transmission , wpc , rem cryo ect just something I love to do , to ensure no further issues in the future! This all happen when I turned the boost up to 40psi just insanity!
