What did you do to your DSM today?

[chrisman287]

It doesn't look small to me.

This is the side that goes on the ofh

Did you already run this adapter and saw that is causing some flow or pressure issue? If you didn't, what's the reason to port before seeing the actual function? Like the same as porting OFH, when you actually see the real need to port, then should do it. Shouldn't port by just guessing or more than it needs. Once you port, you can't go back easily and wasting the parts in many cases.

Haven’t run it yet but you’re probably right. I’m just trying to avoid any possible problems.

Had a bunch of stereo components laying around, so I put together a system. Cost...$2

Got home from work and fiddled with the interior a little bit. Still looking for what's causing the moldy smell from sitting so many years.

Then felt bad and washed it. Might get some new headlights to make it look halfway decent.

Could always try polishing those ones just in the meantime.

Probably the carpet or headliner.

Probably the carpet or headliner.

Headliner was removed for reupholstery. It might be the carpet but I had it cleaned and hot water extracted, so im not sure.

 

[chrisman287]

Changed all the rubber hoses from vacuum block to silicone instead. Now bov, wg, fpr, boost controller and map sensor have a nice tight fit.

Also cut down my intake pipe a couple of inches. The filter being so close to the fender wouldn’t allow me to install the headlight on that side.

Today I looked at it, contemplated life, then slid the car cover back on. Until my next moment of random inspiration...

My Rota slipstreams have been sitting in the garage for few years. Yesterday when I washed them, I found some corrosion on the surface I would apply some sort of surface protector and put them in rim bag to store.

if you pull-out the front driver side c.v. axel and the input/intermediate shaft comes out with it what dose that mean? My c.v. axel to replace it looks like this

The axle pops out of the intermediate.

 

[awdtsi_90]

ok, I wasn't sure if the intermediate shaft broke also or what . Here is a video of the axel broke still in the car with car on ground. Was told the bracket is prolly broke also for the intermediate shaft

Got a bit of engine work done. More prep and cleaning and I did get the oil squirters all cleaned, check valves lubed and working good and all new crush washers, installed to 24 ft/lbs with a dab of red locktite. Maybe more cleaning and bottom end work tomorrow

Began to pull parts off for paint prep for late winter.

 

[CrackedDSM]

Tried for a little bit to get it to idle, and was completely unsuccessful. You have to crack the throttle to get it to idle, but give it gas at all and it bogs and dies. From what I can guess with minimal diagnostics is the MAF is either bad, or the wiring on it is sh*t and it's not seeing proper values. Or there's a setting in 'Link somewhere I'm missing.

Posting a log for giggles. Nothing has been changed in this file except for deadtimes, global, and injbatteryadj values for my FIC1050s. It was previously on a SD file from RixRacing, and I tried to disable everything and switch it back to a 2G MAF, but might've missed something. So if you find stupid stuff, it ain't me. But call it out anyway and bring it to my attention. I'm gonna go chill with the family for awhile. I've got 7 days left of my vacation.


Edit: Fixed the TPS in log ending in 03. It'll rev, but there's a definite delay in throttle response.
