The most important history in TUNERS!

[brownfinger]

something like your vr4 grill on a 1g eclipse..........

I hate you. I woke-up out of a nap to log-on and ask Lofty weather or not the Galant grille sealed the deal! YOU BEAT ME TO IT

I was gonna be funnier about it!

Enjoy, Lofty.

I tried to be rational about it; I bought a FWD turbo before I jumped in head-long. Right now, with the snow, I'm wishing I jumped in, head-long. But I'm thinking if I put the old tires from my 2.0 NT onto my GST, it should hadle in the snow like my old 2.0NT did. After all, it's the exact same chassis, and those $750 worth of tires aren't doing anything sitting under my deck. I digress.

You'll figure out the turbo plumbing real quick. It'll take your mind for a spin. Have fun with all your drive-shafts and new-found suspension bushings, and have fun un-modifying.

Justin, you missed the upper timing belt cover and the heat shield for the exhaust manifold.

Yeah, but I figured the car would run without those. The severely-crushed 1G BOV and missing manifold studs would cause driveability issues for sure.


Lofty, are you sure the car has a 16G? The factory 14B's look the same from the outside. Pull the intake and post a pic.

Intake side says TDO5H!
I'm getting a new bov, or a Greddy type S.

Just like the 14B, Small 16G, Big 16G, and Evo III 16G.

 

[Lofty]

Dammit. I was wrong :'(


Give me a break, I just switched from NT

 

[JusMX141]

Lofty, you have 656 tech posts (and probably 2000+ non-logged posts in the Hangout). How could you not know how to identify the turbo by now?


As a punishment, I want you to write a 1000-word essay on "How I'm going to mod my new AWD DSM" and have it on my desk by noon tomorrow.

Close enough. Sorry. I searched tdo5h and I just had a brain fart, I've been working all day running on 3 hours of sleep. Everythings sorta hazy.

Oh man, you have some work to do.

Don't worry even a idiot here thinks his 14B is a 16G. Also, at least it comes with a 14B. Unlike our 2G piece of crap T25.

 

[habitatguy187]

Haha, he said he's going to keep it stock. Good luck with that, even if you are dirt poor.

 

[twicks69]

Hey guys.


Mine.

Betcha never see the day.

Lofty, are you posting this up on EVERY DSM forum???

I am happy you got rid of your N/T 1G and picked up this one. Welcome to the world of unrealiable performance cars!

Did you get the alternator stuff taken care of?



Keep in touch dude!

Later,

Don't worry, they got me, too. I never actually believed the guy who sold it to me, but he said my car had a "Hybrid 16G/Evo" turbo on it. I finally figured it out: The polished compressor housing is off an Ebay Chinese 16G. Otherwise, it's just another worn-out, smokey old 14b. I think everyone's 1st boosted DSM comes with an alleged 16G.

 

[Lofty]

My last car was and probably will be more unreliable than this. Seriously.

I'm so happy the Pretty NT is gone.

And yeah, Tim, I am posting this everywhere... (Well only two forums ) Because I need to rub this car in the faces of the people who made fun of me for being NT.
It will stay stock for a while, I need it running PERFECT until I mess with it.

 

[sag1441]

what kind of compression does it have?

 

[Lofty]

Not sure as of yet. I will get the comp check done in a few days. I'm kinda scared.

That's fine if you consider "stock" to be "running perfect".

Why be scared? If it runs and runs fine without a dead miss, it has compression. It may be low, but it has compression.

My FWD had 90psi across the deck because leaky exhaust valve seals allowed oil to run down the stem of the valve and burn to the valve seat. Car started and ran perfectly. It was lazy off-boost, but once you were on boost it felt fine.

I'm sure he did buy it like that, and I'm sure he'll get it up and going, or at least try his best. BTW how's the toyota going lofty?

Quote from Girlfriend sitting next to me "It's not"



Yeah, I bought it venting.. fml. Oh well. Just some little hacked shit to clean up and it should be amazing.

 

[PIMking]

Lofty I got a stock 1g BOV laying in the back of the ole ladies car when I sold mine I forgot to give it to him.

If you want it, It's yours.
