What did you do to your DSM today?

[buhay6]

Blew up my 14b , drained 2 litres of engine oil from the SMIC cleaned all the piping and installed a turbine centre section. Now time for a BLT and started up wish me luck folks!

 

[mbyoung424]

Received and installed my replacement front sway bar end link, installed the catalytic converter, for the tires on, and took the car off of the jack stands. Just need to brake in the new rotor/pad combo and should be on my way.

Mocking up uicp to prepare for speed density.

Cussed at it a bit. My steering felt funny. Looked no fluid. Put in fluid no prob. Parked car and big aZz puddle of power steering fluid pouring outta my rack(no pun intended) now I gotta decide ps/ or no ps. Lol

That happens when the system isnt burped and there is air in the system. Clean it up, top it off, slowly turn the wheel rack to rack a few times (with the cap off) slowly!!

 

[d1prospect]

Thx crash89. I tried that already though. I'll give it another shot before I truly commit to removing or repairing.

 

[pksystems]

Powdercoated some catch can parts.

 

[buhay6]

Decided to finally track down my clunking noise and funky handling problem. Turned out my ball joint nut had backed off a few threads. Amazing what it can all change in front end feel.

[mitsubishikid]

haha no kidding! and thanks hopefully they just throw it out cuz im Tayler Not this so called Taylor they caught speeding in my car

Maybe he intentionally wrote the wrong name on the ticket so you could get out of it...I mean you did mention you were part of the "Illuminati" in the past, and you did make the special blow off valve signal before shutting the car down .

All joking aside, I hope you have good luck in court man.

Yeah my dsm had the gab strut tower braces on the car back when I got it, without them on the car it felt more shaky and loose, especially during initial turn in [entering a turn] and when exiting, but with them on it was a whole different question.

I drove my DSM to my customers house to fix their furnace at 630 in the AM. Dam duty line, and being on call.

But gata love it when the customer sees the front mount then starts talking about his 91 talon he built when he was young.

 

[1990dsmkid]

Pulled out rear speakers to figure out why they sound bad sometimes and discovered the mounting depth is a little to big. The magnet is hitting the metal behind it. I plan on making little spacers to place behind the bracket to gain some more clearance. Just have to decide what Im gunna use for spacers and find some longer screws so for now Im just rocking door speakers. Dash speakers dont seem to be working correctly either but dont feel like messing with them

 

[o0GuitarKid0o]

Dash and door speakers are wired togther incase you didnt no that for.future.ref

[CrackedDSM]

Spent a whole heap on it to finish assembling the longblock, and rebuild the transmission. From here it's just a couple more small stuff and it'll be back in action.

Yea I thought they were put for some reason passenger side was working driver side wasnt but both doors were. The dash ones are old cheap pioneers so they most likely just need replaced. Eventually Ill get some 1in tweeters and fit them there but until Im not messing with them

Cut out some spacers for my rear speakers to gain some more clearance for magnets. Hopefully finish them up and install it all back in tomorrow.

 

[pksystems]

Had An-6 fitting tig welded to fuel pump hanger.
Had groove from belt rubbing on IC piping tig welded back to original thickness.

Powdercoated fuel pump hanger and last IC pipe.

 

[Blurred Talon]

Started writing up the parts list so I can begin to gather parts for it at the end of the month. It's a long list.

 

[1990dsmkid]

Got rear speakers installed but need to cut out the stock speaker covers and get some grills for my speakers.

 

[1990TSIAWDTALON]

Mounted my head to my block, getting there slowly but surely!

 

[buhay6]

Found out my over boost issue is due to running a 18psi wastegate so I swapped it out for the 10 psi wastegate....problem solved!

DID IT work good ? With the.spacers?

 

[1990TSIAWDTALON]

Like watching water boil....I watched my new revised lifters bleed down so they didn't hold my valves open even on the bottom of the cam lobe......never moved. Came back a few hours later, all good but 2. :/

Yea the spacers did what I wanted them too. Just cant fit stock plastics back on until I cut out the stock speaker covers. Then Ill install plastics and try to find the grills I need so the speakers are protected and not sticking out like a sore thumb
