Is the red on 1g's, different than the red on 2g's? Because theres a guy on Tuners selling his GSX, and the paint on it is gorgeous, almost looks like my old Talon with the Candy Apple red... He said its a stock colour "Fire Red" from Mitsubishi.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 28, 2008 08:36 pm UTC

I think the Mitsubishi branded cars had their own "pallet".
For 1G vs. 2G Talon, the red paint looks very similar. I think it might be called "Indy Red".

Here's a searchable site, with paint codes and their names:

No Eagle, but I think it's all lumped under Chrysler.

Mike, this car is what I would want my 2g to look like. But I would only have one if I had money to burn.

The colour could be a varation of like 2 coats of paint and then clear or maybe he had a darker primer.

I know tim hunts car looks darker and better then Stock wildberry all he did was 2 coats of wildberry and then 2 coats of clear. Really nice combo.
Posted By: Mike Petro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2008 01:15 am UTC

Oh really? I thought the wildberry was a more "purple" shade. This looks more candy apple - ish.

I came across it on Tuners for sale. Too bad it's located in Cali. I'd sell my Spyder for that in a second. Everything about that car I love. Here's the ad http://www.dsmtuners.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=67578&cat=4

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2008 01:55 am UTC

yeah its like a dark burgandy purplish colour. it looks darker with a different tint he just added an extra coat of clear and colour.

It looks different colour. Im just saying maybe they did an extra coat on the stock red colour and thats why its a little darker.

Edit:

Ghis, if you can send me the file for the pic. I will get it hosted and post if for you.

I might even have a picture still from when you first got it painted. It was like sitting on the side of the road.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 02, 2008 01:06 am UTC

No, not really. The leather's in mint shape though.

I am changing my Prosport gauges this year. I was thinking about going Greddy, but I kinda like the smoked-when-off aspect of them, so I'm going to go all Prosport except Amber as opposed to Green.

Same here. Although mines really worned out. Crack and everything. If budget allows this year, ill replace it with a bucket seat.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 02, 2008 02:10 am UTC

Yeah mine had some crack's. I woulda thought that would cause enough friction to hold you in place though. Either way my new talon has the gray seats with like black and red stripes =]

Nothing beats my old red interior as far as im concerned though.
Posted By: Adam Purkhardt

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 02, 2008 07:06 am UTC

If you put the gauges where the vents use to be, doesnt that mean that there's hot air blowing on the back of them when the heating is on? Isn't that bad for them?

Yep same set of pistons I've been beating on forever. Complete stock rebuild with new seals, bearings and rings.

I didn't have to but figured might as well, since the car was parked for the winter. I only wanted to get the surfaces decked for ARP's and metal headgasket, but I was like bah just rebuild everything to keep it good grin
Downtime on the engine was only a week.
On the ther hand I'm gonna throw whatever I can at it. We'll see how good it holds demon

how much did that cost ya?
Posted By: Ryan Laliberte

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 09, 2008 03:47 am UTC

I'll probably be doing the same to my winter beater over the summer, maybe not rebuilding the engine, but pulling it and freshening things up (Water pump, front case, b/s elim etc). Going to try and do a manual conversion to it over the summer. She's got a great body on her, and the engine's strong so why not. Few mods (14b, 550's, MAF-T, Fuel Pump etc) to give it some pep.

I am also interested to know how much the rebuild/machine work ran you.

You would be surprised at what most trucks wont go through. Most newer trucks come with really wide tires and I can assure you since I went from a 225/75R16 to a 265/75R16 it is much worse in the snow. Any slush is terrible, and it pulls you around a lot more.

I couldnt agree with Brian more. Most people with big trucks think they cant be stopped. Until they pass you when your doing 80 in a blizzard and they end up in the ditch smile

LOL true, but being under 25 and having something over a 1995 is not so good for insurance reasons lol. Im going to buy an R1 after september. But the FZR1000's were rated at 145hp. When it was stock it went 10.76 at 135 I believe. I have the slip somewhere. But the bike is rated the bike at a 10.30 at 137.

Since then ive done a full Kerker 4-2-1 exhaust system, K&N filter and airbox mods. Re-jetting. It seems much faster now. Id like to get it on a dyno and see what happens.

Props on a gorgeous bike though Dan. If only it was a 1000 smile

Hahahahah, no way......I am convinced I will never actually use this bike to it's full potential...plus, I am a big fan of doing more with less.
I will be putting in a sprocket/chain combo this weekend in order to change the gearing mildly.
This will yield more acceleration at the expense of the top end, which is fine, since I rarely get up over 100mph anyway.

Incidentally I originally had my heart set on the R1, but decided the R6 would be a better choice, especially since it was my first bike in 18 years.....no need to kill myself TOO quickly wink

The R6 is very capable rocket.
The R1 is a beast, that's for sure........but the thought of it scared me.

Ryan, what do you think of the new Eclipse? do you like it?

I especially like the interior........I would find the blue glow completely mesmerizing.
Posted By: Ryan Wopereis

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 21, 2008 02:50 am UTC

Adam- Funny you mention that. That thought crossed my mind when I heard there was going ot be an Eclipse tonight.

Dan- I love the Eclipse. I am having a lot of fun with it. I spend most of my day in my car driving given the line of work I do. So I wanted to get something I enjoy. I just can't wait until summer to drop the top. The interior was what really sold me on the car. Funny enough, when I first went to the dealership I was looking at the Lancer GTS but than saw my car in the showroom so it kind of redirected my attention. Than I went home and pondered about the Lancer and somehow went back for the Eclipse the next day. The test drive made it a fairly easy decision. Originally I was looking for something cheap on gas but I couldn't resist. And I am actually amazed at the mileage I am getting with this car.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 21, 2008 03:58 pm UTC

What's with this 'don't want to die yet' stuff? You don't HAVE to crack the throttle wide open! REALLY. You don't! And as for the 'need to buy for insurance' stuff, it's like not getting a TSi in favour of the ES. Sure, you'll save a little money. But you can't put a value on the erosion of your soul...

A 600 is a good size. Fairly economical, with just enough power to get you into trouble. Anything more is just gravy. The guy I bought my minihome from showed me his baby, a $24k Ninja 13 or 1400 (or something, it was the biggest one they made). He told me it was a great bike, but a total waste of money. You just COULDN'T use that much power around our area, without jeopardizing yourself or other people. You always had to be restrained...

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 23, 2008 04:51 pm UTC

I've been on the back of one of those FZRs before and damn...Even with the weight of me on the back, passing cars on the freeway felt like you went into a teleportation device. One second you're behind someone, the next you're 100 feet past them.

I'm too much of a puss for that stuff though. I don't like knowing that I could die any second. I'll stick with mountain bikes.
Posted By: Chris Mckee

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 23, 2008 05:36 pm UTC

Its not the bike or the power that scares me. Its the drivers on the road. They have no respect or concern for people on bikes. Thats why I avoid crowded roads like 400 series highways. Ive had my fair share of close calls, and its a piss off, but I love riding a bike.

The thing sure does move. I wouldnt need anything more powerful. But since its older its definately the cheapest form of transportation I own. I can get 40+mpg easily.
Posted By: Ziggy Dietrich

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 23, 2008 08:38 pm UTC

Car drivers are actually MUCH better these days than they used to be. When everyone rode 125s and a 250 was considered a big bike, the cars used to HATE being held up by a bike and used to feel we didn't belong on the roads. They would sometimes PURPOSELY try to run you off the road. These days the problem is usually just that the car driver didn't SEE the bike...
Posted By: Dan Sarkar

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 24, 2008 02:40 am UTC

Didn't "see" the bike, saw the bike, but chose to ignore it........you choose.

One of the tricks to surviving when sharing the road with cars is to simply stay away from the group; stay out of blindspots, avoid all SUV's and assume that everyone driving is going to do the most selfish thing possible at any given moment.
If you think the fat ass with the grande latte in the black escalade is going to suddenly jump over to your lane without signalling because they are bored of their current lane.....then 95% of the time, he will......if you anticipate this, you'll be fine.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 27, 2008 11:55 am UTC

The bike situation is a tough one. I've been riding since I was a kid and I've learned a thing or two, but nothing more. ALWAYS anticipate the worst possible situation you could be in, know that you're not sharing the road with intelligent drivers in "cages", stay away from blind spots, wear your leathers, have a LOUD pipe, so if they don't see you they hear you, and keep out of the blind spots. I also love to ride with the high beams on in the daytime.

Since I used to race MX and ride Freestyle MX I use another tactic to keep from killing myself. I watch as many crash/death videos as possible before the season starts. During the riding season I like to watch a few to keep it fresh. I also think that "cagers" should be forced to do the very same thing.

I can't stand any leaks, oil or grease. I like to keep things relatively clean.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 18, 2008 08:43 pm UTC

I've never raced it or had it tuned, I'll do both once I do my single setup, other people are putting down around 440awhp and are doing high 11's low 12's just to give you an idea

and yes it's a pain in the ass to work on and that's why I want to go with a single
Posted By: Rafael Pimentel III

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 19, 2008 12:23 am UTC

^^ Those numbers are easily reachable on a 3.0 single setup.
I'd bet that you could make that with the current setup if you wished.

Check VG30dett forums for some ideas. Hot side piping is a pain but overall, you'll lover the gains, the cleaner look of the bay, less piping, great Top end, etc.

Nice looking car.

when I first pieced the car together I had no spoiler and it looked fugly, I know the combat spoiler I have now isn't everyones cup of tea but I like it, I find it makes the car look a little more aggressive

as far as piping I'm going to use the stock manifolds or my SS ones and just make a collector, here's a pic of what I'm talking about, but instead of having the turbo mounted ontop of the tranny like this guy mine is going to be in front of the rad where you can see one of his wastegates and I'm going to make a plenum that way my TB will be on the driverside and I won't have to route piping all over the place like this guy

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 26, 2008 12:28 pm UTC

I think the Audi was leather sides with an Alcantara<sp?> center. Felt REALLY nice. I was ticked when a security guard kid bought the A4 that I wanted out from under me. You can't beat the Audi/VW seats. Even the Passats feel great, AND are supportive when you crank cornering speeds up...

Beautiful car, Grant.

on the contary. it's OEM Audi leather and alcantera. the pics make it look much LIGHTER than it really is. it's more of a dark blue in person.

Sweet car Grant. I always loved those. I had a customer at my old job who had the same car. He put the chip in and said the difference was incredible. He just had it chipped with exhaust. He raced it the odd time. Being a 50 year old doctor I am not too sure how much more he was planning on doing with it but he was really happy with the car. How much power do those cars have stock?

thanks Ryan,

stock, the car runs on 7psi through it's two K-03 turbo's and makes 250hp/258tq

a typically chipped car raises that boost to 14psi and nets 360tq/390tq and even more so on race gas.

with a true turbo-back and a k-04 turbo upgrade, they get quite well into the 500s with hp/tq and put down 11s

Posted By: Troy Jollimore

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 26, 2008 11:22 pm UTC

Ha! You say it's sweet, until you consider that it's the equivalent of Todd Day's ECU mod (~$200?) and a $50 manual boost control. And it costs around $600.

The Euro crowd keep a TIGHT grip on ECU communications specs and encryption, so that every-hacker and their dog can't develop S-AFCs or Palm Loggers like you see for the Japanese/DSM-type cars. So you can't just slap on a bigger turbo and tune like a DSM, you have to get a new chip or a re-program for another few hundred bucks. And then there's no guarantee it'll work.

There's tools like Lemmiwinks that you can use to tune your ECU parameters, but only a little bit. And if you slap on an MBC and crank the boost yourself, the ECU steps in when it detects more boost than it thinks it should have and you get stuck with 'limp-home mode'.

Also consider that the K03 and 04 turbos are about the size of a stock 2G's T25. Something the size of a T28 is a MAJOR upgrade. There's a few that have pushed farther with bigger turbos and custom tuning, but either the limiter steps in with the AWD systems, or you get nothing but wheelspin. Hell, I can light my little 15" tires up at will with a stock 1.8t...

I have an APR 93 (no fancy selections) ECU I bought from a guy in TO that was liquidating his mods. I need to get my car running right first, but then I have to pay about $200 to change the chip to 91 or custom-mix my own additives to boost 91 to 93 octane in my tank.

So here's my progress so far, got my turbine housing, O2 housing, JM fab heatshield & downpipe back from the coaters. They are all done in a satin black ceramic that's supposed to be good till 2000F. I also had an internal coating (supposed to be 3 layers) done, called XMU I believe to the downpipe & O2 housing that is supposed to trap in the heat even more still. My evoIII mani was just mocked up but am waiting to finish up an egr setup before I can finish up installing parts. Hoping to have it on the road for May 1st.

Come on, lay off the poor guy. Everyone has different tastes. I think it looks alright. Maybe not what I'd put on my car, but I appreciate the effort. Notice his 90 tails and 91+ front end, guys? Jeeeeez. wink

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 01, 2008 05:04 pm UTC

I've seen this car in person at Helders.

Personally, I think it looks pretty good. Only thing I really don't like about it is the front bumper and rear bumper flares out too much at the sides when you look at it from a side angle.

plus, people post pics up to get opinions. If i posted my pics up and you guys don't like it, I would want to know, and also know why it doesn't look good.

I personally like the car except for the tail lights and the rear bumper flares out too much.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 01, 2008 10:45 pm UTC

People can hate it or love it but i like it! theres not that many 1genb's that are in shows so that's why i picked it out for orginality to represent 1 gens and prove they look just as good as thge 2nd gens. I will in the future be putting on fender flares to fix that problem with the front skirt. And i will be going balls out on the motor eventually but for an overall build of two years and all the money blood sweat and tears im proud to say i own a dsm

I've been without for at least a year and I only have 1 ticket for it (and I didn't get pulled over for it, the lady cop circled my car after I got pulled over for something else) Do they care about that stuff up in Sudbury? and I spend most of my time in Oshawa area.

Oh, and the fenders will be gone shortly, the original owner has agreed to mail me new fenders (and a missing sideskirt) if I mail these back to him.

Thanks for the comments guys.

The bike is definitely worth more than the daily driver. I built the bike over the course of about 4 months. I just waited until I found the best deals on everything between ebay, bike forums, and the fall bike show.
It's got full xt drivetrain, juicy 7's, large capacity fox float shock rebuilt by push industries, marzocchi 700sl fork, and crossmax enduro wheelset. It rides amazing, actually I'm heading out right now.

The 2g should be on the road in about a week's time depending on how the e-test goes but I'm crossing my fingers, it's been a long time coming.

The 2g should be on the road in about a week's time depending on how the e-test goes but I'm crossing my fingers, it's been a long time coming.

All my bikes have been worth more than any car I've had, but it's a passion I have and I can't deny myself the natural fun!

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 07, 2008 10:11 am UTC

Mike I'll get you a pic. It's down in the lower splash cover held on with these super thick tie wraps. It seems just as solid as the OEM setup. I ran the car for about a month before coming up with this solution though lol. I had to add coolant every couple of weeks.

Thanks for the kind words. What do you figure for the VC? I'd love to have it powdercoated, but no one does that locally. I'm just not sure if paint would hold up too well. Also I'm not sure what colour to go with. Black most likely. I'm trying to make the engine bay more lowkey. I just picked up Taylor 8mm Spiro Pro wires in that pic in black smile They look OE.

Oh, here's why I'm still rolling on factory wheels...

My race wheels (17x8 Rota Torques) and tires (Nitto NT01) have blown my rim/tire budget for a while frown If only I could drive them on the street as well. Oh well! They get me around the corners quickly when it counts!

I have short route on my 2ga and I never had to relocate the coolant bottle. I am sure it would look better relocated though.

Mike. Nice looking car. Same colour as my 2ga only I don't have the Eclipse front bumper. Definately a nice touch. How long have you had the car for and who did you buy it from? It looks very familiar.

My ticket to 10's I hope.

Fresh shafts, bearings, all synchros including double synchro 2nd gear, welded diff and a clutch that doesn't slip. I will need to get used to the shorter 1st gear though as I had a taller Galant 1st and never even knew it.

Im sure they tell you that so you dont go and find all the imperfections in the paint job. Do yourself a favor now, go over it and make sure everything is the way it should be.
Posted By: EK

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 09, 2008 02:10 pm UTC

I've given the car a few look overs for imperfections and haven't seen anything significant. They tell me this because the paint actually takes a long time to dry, and needs to breathe. The guy who did this is a good guy and wont screw with me, I've had a friend deal with him in the past and he has been nothing but good, especially with touch ups if they are needed.

I still havent gotten them %##^S out so either of the bumper or headlight bolts are no way goin back in, makes it a lil easier when I get a FMIC, 5 broken bolts and a stripped screw head later and that bolt refuses to mate with my socket!!!!

I agree about the fog lights, they look kinda cheap (canadian tire ish) and I think I will make the center of the lights black when I can. thanks for the feedback guys I appreciate it.

Yea I work at SMF in customer service; it was multicolor when i was doing the 97 eclipse conversion (since its a 95 talon) because all the parts i was finding were different colors lol.

This might sound like blasphemy, Dan... But when I considered that, it wasn't worth it. The newest 2G will be 10 years old, and newer cars have technology that make the DSMs near-obsolete. It'd be more worth it to go for a used EVO from the US, now that they can be brought in.

And as good as the 2Gs look on the outside, I could never get over the 'girl-designed' interior. It's nice, but the 1G interior fits like it was custom-designed for me. Every 2G I've sat in and driven I've always felt like an 'operator' as opposed to a part of the car...

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 31, 2008 12:17 pm UTC


I have to agree with Troy on the 1g cockpit. It's one of the most comfortable places...and I like the pop-ups.

The problem with newer cars and their technology is that all the new stuff weighs too much. I prefer a simpler car, but I'm sure I would make use of adjustable diffs. Just skip all that performance robbing, fuel sucking nav-dvd-home theatre in your car.

I'd wait until the new Lancer Ralliart is released. It should be a lighter version of the EVO X.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 31, 2008 04:20 pm UTC

Yeah, for the 2G they took all of the Japanese "function over form" out of the cockpit, that right there is enough to keep me in a 1G smile

Also - the 1G has a better looking exterior, "easier" under-hood configuration, a turbo that doesn't give up before the redline, a more "tuner-friendly" ECU...
And no crankwalk.

Oh and any of your 2G parts that are better - we take those and we put them on easy.

That is all. alien

Been busy and yes its a 95 talon with eclipse parts. I'm rolling around with different coloured parts aswell. My car is midnight purple and the parts are all black. It's gonna take a while, but a paint job is on my list of things to do.

Nice list of mods all you need after the injectors and link are some arp head studs and a clutch and you'll make some big power.

I didn't end up going to Shannonville. I was pretty tired and the thought of unloading all the stuff from the car and shelling out $100 didn't appeal. I'm sure my gf wouldn't have approved either!

Troy, you had a chance! Now you'll have to come to some event in Ontario. Hmm, don't know if the gf would've approved of the wife for co-drive deal either shocked

I test fit some 16x9.5's at Calabogie with 265-45-16 V710's. Looked nice, similar to Scott's and at 15.5lbs the wheels are light. Thinking about picking them up.

Yeah, but with the flares it could be driven with those wheels every day.

I wouldnt mind having that seven in my garage, I would look nice beside spike!!

Hey tashko what wheels are those? Evo stockers? or buddy clubs?

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 03, 2008 03:11 am UTC

The wheels I use are Kosei K1 Racing. 16x8.5. The ones I test fitted were 16x9.5 Circle Racing Series 82. I couldn't find any pictures on the web of those.

It would have been tempting, but I'd have turned it down for the same reason I don't take my father's motorcycle for a ride. A) It'll really make me want to buy one more, and I can't afford it; and B) I couldn't afford to fix it if it broke while under my control. wink

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 03, 2008 02:33 pm UTC

Troy is right in that I'm not the kind to ask someone for a co-drive. I'll soldier through with my own car and try to make the best of it. Masochistic perhaps. wink

Fender flares is not something I'd consider. For starters, I would never run Kumho V710s on the street. Plus tires that big (275/40R17 on 17x10) are way overkill for anything other than competition. And as Kevin pointed out, they look much more intimidating as they are. I've got my suspension stiff enough that they never make contact with the fenders.

I am aiming at a fuel delivery system overhaul next year, along with a turbo upgrade while I am at it since the poor little 14B is capable of literally maxing out right now.

Current setup, as of this afternoon.
Switched over from a 1G MAF to a 3G MAS.
I am no longer over running my MAF, the car may have a bit more in it with the current mods.

7 Bolt 3G MAS

3G MAS

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 26, 2008 11:41 am UTC

Looks like a 2G MAS Jamal.
Posted By: Jamal Qazi

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 26, 2008 01:41 pm UTC

It's actually from a v6 eclipse, very similar to a EVO 3 MAS. Both MAS's as rated to flow about 270 L/min compared to the 2G 240 L/min and the 1G 180 L/min. I was over running my 1G MAF at about 19 psi and did not want to hack the MAF no more. This is a total plug and play.

Not entirely true.... your eprom chip has had your airflow tables modified to read the 3G maf like a 1G stocker. The maf would not work well without the compensations. Altho, I'm sure it could be dialed in with the S-AFC too.

How's she pulling now Jamal?
Posted By: Jamal Qazi

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 26, 2008 06:17 pm UTC

your right kevin, without the chip compensating, the MAF would not run.
The car's running great with some late night tunning.

Without the chip, it would have been a whole different story tunning with the AFC.

Maybe a 12.4@110mph with the new MAF wink

I have faith in the 16G, as I have witnessed it go well into the 11's.

My major boost leak is fixed, my lower injectors seal was torn, and it was just hissing away. This leak was present during that run with the daytona.

Running 12.6@108 at 19psi is nothing to spectacular for the 16G

Currently running 21/22 psi I see the 16G with so much more in it. So, 11's early next season should be expected. Could be running that already wink , but a timeslip would make me feel better.

Im still running on the SMIC, haven't even installed my FMIC and the car already pulls harder than it use to pull with the 1G MAF being overrunned. The 3G MAS flows significantly more.

future run: 11.974@114MPH

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 29, 2008 05:48 pm UTC

Yep, its a completely stock Evo 3 16g, pretty obvious from the exhaust housing. I don't lie about my mods wink . Good I saved the pics.

I was choking the 16G to stay at 19 psi and still ran a 12.6. Once you have all the supporting mods to let the 16G spin, the doors being kicked down to the 11's and the 16G will walking through, proud like a camel. tongue

Just getting back from work, I decided to tune the car on the way home. With the cold weather, I went from being in the + to - 10 across the board on the afc, running 22 psi with no knock right pass 6500rpm.

Havent had the car running (-) across the board on the afc with ultra 94, kinda got scared, but timing was good and i did not see no knock!

Funny thing is, it was still running a bit rich.

Missing side skirt will be added... Once I get one.
Hood and bumper will be painted along with the rest of the car once I decide on a

It will be lowered in the spring. I have Tockiko blues, and Eibah sportline springs. Also have a camber kit for both front and rear.

When I say moving parts, I mean hard parts. Shifting is pressure driven with balls and springs.

Hey Ryan have you ever taken apart an automatic transmission? they are alot more complicated than any manual. As more me my first 1g was an auto, I went through 3 used transmissions in 6 months. Never again in my life will I purchase an automatic. Eitherway it looks like a clean car so enjoy it and definetely get the IPT kit to stiffen up the shifts.

Automatics have way more moving parts! spool valves,regulators,pistons,seals,releif valves,clutches,bands,servos,diaphram springs,planeraty gearset, Hydrulic circuits(input,held,outputs)just to name a few. Theres alot more things that could go wrong with an automatic. Build it right, proper converter selection, proper suspension set up will net you with an unbeatble dragcar.

Automatics are more complicated to rebuild. They also require alot more specility tools. Unless your rebuilding alot of them, better off sending it to a shop.

Ok, this is a little story that was emailed to me that I think fits this auto vs. manual story fairly well:



A C-130 was lumbering along when a cocky F-16 flashed by.
The jet jockey decided to show off.

The fighter jock told the C-130 pilot, 'watch this!' and promptly went into a barrel roll followed by a steep climb. He then finished with a sonic boom as he broke the sound barrier. The F-16 pilot then asked the C-130 pilot what he thought of that?

The C-130 pilot said, 'That was impressive, but watch this!'
The C-130 droned along for about 5 minutes and then the C-130 pilot came back on and said: 'What did you think of that?'

Puzzled, the F-16 pilot asked, 'What the heck did you do?' I didn't see anything.

The C-130 pilot chuckled. 'I stood up, stretched my legs, walked to the back, took a leak,then I got a cup of coffee and a cinnamon bun.'



When you are young and foolish, speed and flash may seem a good thing. When you get older and smarter, comfort and dull is not such a bad thing!

I'm with Ryan and Ziggy. I always thought auto DSM's were the devil until I went onto the Link forums and saw how many people are running auto's, and how many others want to be like them.

When you start making a ton of power, there's nothing better than a decent auto that can harness all that power.

Not trying to start a war, just saying how much of a difference they are once they're done up right.

Tashko, do you drive your Talon down to those meets in say, Indiana?

What if you break something??
Posted By: Tashko Sarakinov

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 19, 2008 03:55 am UTC

Yup, I drive it every day. Drove to PEI for the August long weekend this year. Even managed just under 9L/100km with a passenger and race tires+gear in the back.

Why would it break? smirk

If anything did break, I'd fix it. If I was in Indiana and it was something serious like a blown motor, I'd go to the local U-haul, rent a van and car hauler, and tow the sucker home! I make sure I do preventative maintenance, since I abuse the car, and having a failure put me into a wall is not something I plan on happening. If I hit a wall, it'll be driver error not car failure! shocked

I've had a couple of minor things happen.

In 2005 I had an ECU start failing (misfire) while I was at the track in St. Eustache, QC. Made it home.

In 2006 I had a front wheel bearing spin when I was in Indiana. Brake feel was terrible but made it home.

When I was at Calabogie (out by Ottawa) in Sept. I had my main coolant pipe pop out of the water pump and dump my coolant out while on track. The mounting bolt was awal for some reason and it's hard to put a bolt in with the manifold in place. I fixed that with some borrowed safety wire, competed the next day and made it home:

But this spring it will have an OEM CF hood!

That is a nice piece, I was looking into one of those with someone on this board.

But, that wouldnt be good for my set up.
A top mount would up-set the balance at the front, since it raises the weight and places it higher than I would like.

Never the less, its a nice piece.

Unforunately I don't have a high res version and it's not my picture. Some guy that was spectating at the hillclimb snapped the picture. His panning was pretty good considering I was coming towards him also.

I'll have to try find him since his name is almost readable on the picture. Maybe the 2010 calendar.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 11, 2008 09:46 pm UTC

Ha! No, I meant that it's difficult getting the focus exactly right on the moving object without the rest of the picture looking 'off' instead of blurred. Especially given that lighting.

Could have been PS'ed though, Rob. Everyone knows that Tash hardly ever exceeds 'parking lot speed'. *Laugh* wink

The only PS change I'd consider making is maybe snagging the rear wheel and putting it over the front one to make it seem cleaner...

Wise guy eh? bitch smile

You guys are too funny!

I was going to run my R-compounds but they have break-out times for un-caged cars and I could beat that time on streets. Hence, the brake dust covered front wheels...and after an 8hr drive the night before, I wasn't too concerned with appearance, mine or the car's! Next year I'll be keeping her shiny for all events and make sure to get high res. pics from people.

The event was in a public place so anybody can snap pictures of whatever they want. It's their property. However, if they were to use your image to make money (like stock photo) then you have the right to your share. Of course most events have an 'event' photographer and you end up giving consent for any use of our image without any reward via the entry forms.

Hey Manual, that looks like their "std" coating, I believe its rated to around ~1300F? Did you get their internal coating as well, believe they call it something like XPT? I'm wondering if that coating will stand up to the kind of EGT's we see (if you had the internal coating done, that'll probably help)? They did all my coating for me (heatshield, turbine housing, O2 housing & complete downpipe) but I had it all done in the high temp (~2200F) satin black & had the O2 & downpipe done internally with that XPT coating (they don't normally do turbine housings internally because of wheel clearances).
Posted By: manuel salazar

If it is a public event and there is no expectation of privacy on the part of the driver then the picture is the property of the photographer whether he asked to take it or not. Since it was a competitive event the only person other than the photog who might have a claim to it is the event organizer depending on their policy.

That being said I don't know a single photographer who would object to seeing their image published. If it had been my image and you wanted to publish it I would simply ask for a credit in the publication and a copy once it is printed. Unless of course you are making money from the sale of the calender .... then I'd want my piece too =)

Just a fresh coat of Flash Red. I had the motor stripped and subframe / suspension dropped anyways, so I figured now is the time to get it done. It bothered me how ugly it looked under the hood.

I put a 1G BOV in my 2G tonight. I think it helped with my boost leak.

Are 2G BOV's supposed to leak past 5 psi? Are you supposed to be able to push the valve open with minimal force?

I'm taking it to work tomorrow to melt it.

Not brand new, but less than a year old. I just scrubbed the dirt and grime off with brakekleen, a rag, and a toothbrush.
Posted By: Adam Grenon

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 16, 2009 06:37 pm UTC

Did the new brake master come with the Vacuum booster or did you paint the original?
Posted By: Garret Sliva

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 16, 2009 06:48 pm UTC

Painted the booster. It still works just fine, but somewhere in the cars past it had a really bad master cylinder leak so the paint had bubbled from the brake fluid.

After a good scrubbing and sanding down it looks great now.

Posted By: Mike Allicock

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 03, 2009 01:42 pm UTC

Thanks guy. Hey Mike.. I also love the two tones, but when I went in for the respray, my friend doing the work suggested it. I thought what the hell, he can paint it back since it was his idea, lol. After it was finished, we really liked it. We didn't bother with the spoiler yet, but ended up liking the contrast of the red top, black spoiler. Hence why I tried to stick with the red and black theme afterwards. smile

It is long, but I noticed that he elevated the hose slightly after adding fluid - I've hear of people with similar braided stainless setups doing that to prevent air from getting trapped.

That was my fault. I forgot to shut the stock hood down the night before, got up the next morning started to drive to work. Got to 401 and Keele and "BANG" the hood flew open smashed my windshield and slapped against my roof.

Thats why I now have a carbon fiber hood.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 04, 2009 02:39 pm UTC

Thanks guys, its taken ALOT of prep work to get the awd pieces to look better then factory wink

Alot of the doner parts were rust free from Cali. Everything was still refinished. Some parts were powdercoated (all suspension parts), which others I sandblasted, applied rust bullet (a very tough epoxy coating that should never rust, even if I did drive the car in the winter) & then finished it off with some Eastwood Chassis coating.

Some parts like the toe adjust lower control arm, parking brake backing plates/dust shields, wheel bearings, etc are new OEM.

Alxes are all DSS level 2's

The Rust Bullet website is www.rustbullet.com where you can find all the info on their products. I bought it off their local distributor, which is: http://www.kapcor.ca/

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 06, 2009 04:18 am UTC

Ok, thanks Darren. Did you use a spray gun or just brush it on?

I saw the video and they didnt even attempt to grind the rust to bare metal, they just spray the damn thing on. Is that what you did?
Posted By: Daren Peacock

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 06, 2009 05:14 am UTC

I sprayed it on with a HVLP gun (have to thin even the automotive formula to spray nice, I used xylene). Most of my parts were rust free but I sandblasted them all so they were all rust free before application.

Thanks guys, I love the rims too, I just need bigger tires, there 5% too small.
And I think the car was painted at one point in its lifetime, and replaced a small section of the driver rockers.
None the less, they did a good Friggen Job.
There was a fair amount of surface rust along the seams underneath from the rear weel well back.. but I dropped the subframe and the tank, and took a good 5 hours or so to fix it all.

Ah man that's not good, but I'm glad to see your getting it back on the road! In the winter I ran over a curb and bent my front left inner and outer ti-rods and needed a new rim. I still haven't got the new rim :S but all else is fixed. New tires + rims soon anyways.

By the way since my last pics these ones show my bronze and black brakes smile Except the rear passenger side, I ran out of paint, and have more important things to spend money on...I ll fix that soon though.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 02:53 pm UTC

Aggressive? It sticks out awfully.

IMO, get rid of the wing and finish the trunk in black like the roof and hood. That will set it off pretty nice.
Posted By: Mike Lane

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 04:37 pm UTC

I dont have a prefrence on the wing. Honestly who cares thats how the high end 3000gt's come...
not like its some ricer wing
Posted By: Mitchell Dronfield

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 04:42 pm UTC

That doesn't look stock but I guess it is. Still looks out of place to me...

Isn't that a stealth? Not a 3000GT?

Posted By: Mike Lane

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 04:45 pm UTC

it is a steath converted 3000 gt. Im not going to give dial up my time to load the pic again but if you look up the mitsubishi GTO it will have the same/similar spoiler, not the big turbo wing style one.
edit: I think the spoiler would look better if it was red like the car, and the actual wing part was black or CF wrapped. (like the evos)
Posted By: Mitchell Dronfield

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 04:47 pm UTC

Yeah I looked it up. It is a 3000GT wing, still looks off to me.

Maybe its cause its painted different then the car that it throws it off. Still it looks like it would be better without it. Thats just my opinion.
Posted By: Brandon Clement

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 04:48 pm UTC

Those are definitely Stealth tail lights. 3000gt kinda look like an oddly shaped eclipse tail light
Posted By: Mike Lane

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 13, 2009 04:57 pm UTC

I saw that pic now. I see what your all saying. ITs a 3000gt front and a stealth rear so thats whats throwing it off. Plus the fact it just doesnt match, though thats arguable with a black hood.

Yes, I have it too. It's this archiac method of internet communication primarily using small screeching speakers, styrofoam cups, and poorly braided twine. Not even string. If you look at it in a manner otherwise than directed, it slows itself down. I feel your pain Mike.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 14, 2009 03:29 pm UTC

the car is a 95 Stealth, but when I received the car it was just a shell so instead of putting stealth body parts on it I decided to get 3000GT parts instead, everything is stock except the front lip and I'll be getting some widebody front fenders next month for the front

I think it was Mike that said the spoiler would look better with red ends and I'll have to agree, that's probably what I'll get the guy to do when I bring him the new fenders, I'll probably get him to paint the lip while he's at too since I didn't ask him to paint those pieces black but he did have a good idea since everyone that sees it really likes the way it looks

Typically a car gets dirtier and older with everyday, yet somehow Daren's gets increasingly cleaner and newer. Now that its AWD, the only reason I am not jelous of your car is because it is not black laugh

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 01, 2009 04:10 pm UTC

Thanks guys, that was just after a quick clean (not as thorough as I'd like to do, but don't have the time I use too). Try to keep it in "like new" condition but you can see some wear over the past 6+ years of summer driving, as the car was like new when I got it, with 19K on it.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 08, 2009 05:59 pm UTC

Well now that I am back in my stomping grounds I decided to start working on my beast again. Aquired a house in London with a 3 car garage so slowly I am getting everything set up and working on the car for next year.

I installed a fluidyne rad and a Taylor battery relocate kit. A built 6-bolt with a stock second gen head. Magnus intake, front mount. Hahn 16G kit. Stock cams and all that. Netted 330awhp and 343awtq. 17 psi. I have a header to put on, a meth kit I will experiment with. Exedy twin disk so I can shift again smile (I hate ACT). A jay racing alternator relocate kit. HKS 272's and a few other trinkets. at around 25 psi im hoping for over 400 whp.

The car was good for a high-mid 12 second quarter mile two years ago, couldnt shift thanks to my dragging clutch. Also passed an e-test with no EVAP, EGR or cat smile It felt nice to get back in it because it had been so long. I have the fever again, and the only perscription is more cowbell, so more cowbell there will be smile

I am definately changing the interior, the tan leather is not doing it for me anymore haha. I should clean up the engine someday, its been sitting in storage for a while but it fired right up and drove a couple hours without a problem smile

Mike, I felt the same way so I drilled and tapped my bumper to accept two M6 bolts. Just be careful not to torque them too much. Spring washers help.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 24, 2009 09:53 pm UTC

Hmm.. I was thinking of the mount that is used on the Evo's. Pretty sure theres a bracket that goes in the air duct hole, and then bolts to something behind the bumper.

Hard to tell from just looking at pictures online.

Posted By: Ryan LeClair

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 25, 2009 12:54 pm UTC

cody.. the height of the seat in general is almost to the roof, the padding that you sit on is extremely thick so you feel like your almost rubbing your head against the ceiling.. and your legs feel crammed with the steering wheel when clutching/ braking!

i had to make custom brackets in order for it to fit, im thinking about staying with recaro but just down sizing the the dc5 model smile


joe, the car was painted lexus grey last summer.. the rims are not chrome, more of a polished grey/glossy finish!

No, sort of. The bumper has been trimmed a bit to fit the Talon lights but not enough.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 20, 2009 01:48 am UTC

hey eric, it was bright yellow, i only could see it on the bumper and when i took out the windows, that was like probably years ago because it was painted red over it, and you can see in the pics that looks pretty old too, so im guessing it was a long time ago it was yellow, I also seen another yellow talon lol not in brampton and ive been living here for 6 years

I haven`t fully decided. I may sell as a rolling chassis for a couple hundred bucks, or I may just keep incase I ever have an urge to build a racecar. If she`s going to be a racecar, she`s going RWD demon

Here's a few of my '97 eclipse GST Spyder. Theres also a few pics with Eric Kellar's car in them as well. Just bought this thing in September and it's been away all winter. Come spring/summer I'm hoping to get a new paint job, new top, and some new rims. Everything on this car is stock except for the exaust system. The civic in the last 2 pictures is my winter car.

Really? I'm pretty sure I've seen lowering springs as well as other things like exhaust, intakes, etc at Markham Mitsu. So they'll install these parts (& charge you a fortune) & then decline your warranty? Or is it only when you do it yourself?

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 25, 2010 03:38 pm UTC

Could be that, but my mitsu stealership said "If we see you've got it modified we cancel the warranty". But it's possible that if I buy the parts and let them install it, it's still covered. :S

they wont cover it. Even if they install the part. My buddy has an 06 or 07 eclipse gt and they installed a aftermarket clutch and said it wouldnt void the warrenty. 8 months later, they tranny ate itself from the inside out( less then 50k km). When the took it apart to see what went wrong they blamed it on the clutch and voided they warrenty. Wouldnt even put the car back together for him. had to have it towed out of the dealership. He ended up buying a used tranny off of ebay..

Posted By: Ziggy Dietrich

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 26, 2010 11:36 am UTC

I would say if the dealership tells you a certain mod won't void the warranty, GET IT IN WRITING. Talk is cheap. Otherwise later on it will be: "who told you that? Oh, he was fired long ago....sorry, can't help you".

The new Ralli-arts are awesome. We got to beat up on and modify one of them. Loads of fun smile And about the warranty, mitsu has the ability to check if an ecu has been re-flashed. There is a counter. So get your car flashed at the dealership as much as you can lol. Because the dealership doesn't keep track of how many times it has been flashed, just that it has been. And that is good enough for mitsu.

But let me tell you, a re-flash makes a BIG difference. I was surprised. Those cars respond very well to bolt on parts plus a flash. Nice car though!! I saw a bone stock one drop a valve, with under 40K on it. Scary. And they eat clutches, even in stock form.

That's what the kit consisted of if I remember correctly.

Thanks Michael. Audi goes by set Staged upgrades. My car for example:

Stage 0: Stock
Stage 0+: Preventative maintenance (DV's, hoses, etc.)
Stage 1: +Chipped
Stage 2: +Exhaust
Stage 2+: +gutted or aftermarket downpipes
Stage 3-: +K04 turbos without fueling or intercoolers
Stage 3: K04s + complete fueling kit (injectors, fpr, fuel pump, specific tune) and intercoolers
Stage 4: Same as Stage 3 but with bigger turbos (GT 25's,28's, etc.)

I'm currently at Stage 2 (chip + exhaust) and will soon be 2+ once I gut my downpipes this summer.

Thanks!

Not too many modded Audis around my area so it's nice to stand out now.

The wheel gap is a little more even that pictured considering I was on an uphill when taking the photos.

When level, there's about half a finger gap in the front and pretty much flush in the rear.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 05, 2010 06:49 pm UTC

Sweetness. Looks as low as my buddy's B5 S4.

He just picked up a 2004 S4 Avant, and is selling his B5 soon.

Where did you take the pics? Looked like Dundas and Keele.

Car's sick.

You said it's a Stage 2 chipped B5 right?
Posted By: Grant Redfern

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 05, 2010 06:54 pm UTC

Thanks Michael.

I'm not a big fan of the B6/B7 S4's. They kinda killed the appeal by dropping a big V8 in there instead of the F/I V6. Glad to see they went back to that in 2010.

Yup, it's Stage 2 which means it's chipped and exhaust.

Next project will be the gutting the precats for about a 30hp gain.

Hey Anthony, PM me your setup again.

I'm so jealous.
Posted By: Anthony Hiscock

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 31, 2010 01:26 am UTC

hahaha, there's not much of a set up and I don't mind sharing it.

It's just a refreshed 7 bolt, new gaskets, water pump and what not, balance shaft eliminator, HKS 272 cams, 14B, ARP Head Studs, Chinese tubular manifold and dump, DSM Link V3 Lite.

The 14B is not long for this world, should get me through the summer but I only plan to run 12lbs max. I've got an Evo 3 16G on the way that will be set up for an external wastegate, that not till next year though.

Only a few more days and she'll be back in my hand.

Man that's a sweet setup if you ask me, just basics for the street.

Next year I'll be doing the fuel set up and an FMIC along with that new 16G set up. Also plan to switch over to speed density and run meth too.
Not counting my chickens yet though.

Garrett, awesome looking car man. Needs to be lowered though.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 02, 2010 06:36 pm UTC

Ya i didnt tint the car, the previous owner wanted to keep the tint "legal". I would go darker on the sides if i got it re-done. The smoked taillights are rather easy to do if you can get your hands on a can of VHT Niteshades paint.

No,I did this a few years ago, wasn't happy with the result as I shave and painted the trunk part black and the rest of the hatch is still gloss black from factory. I'm planning to invest in a CF hatch as it would fit scheme much better as I have a CF hood and my wiper piece is CF too. How did yours turn out Mike?

Well I bought it second hand still in the wrapping. I dont even know who made it but fitment isnt great. I cannot get the back of it to sit flush with the tail lights and quarter panels. Also your 2 tone turned out better than mine. I had the top half painted and the line is not curved the way I wanted it to be. I wanted it painted like yours, but mine is more of a straight line. And as of the last few months the clear/resin has hazed over like a cloud. It hasnt yellowed, just has hazy patches crazy

Just passing over the boarder into New Brunswick, I'm not even sure where I was (running on 100% caffine at that point in the day). It was a little air field after I crossed, I saw the plane and had to turn around to get a picture.

I can't wait to loose the front plate, the car will look a bit better. I'm gonna try and get out to the lot night Capital Mitsubishi on the 26th, I hope at least. Insurance is off the car on the 30th.

They are Powerslot big brake kit upgrade, its about 12.8 inch diameter with purple aluminum hat. Stock 2G Awd Caliper with Hawk HP+ pad.

Cant go wrong with that setup honestly, but you need agressive pad, if you buy and put cheapo pad it not worth it. Would look nice on your car wink

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 24, 2010 08:35 pm UTC

I was looking at Evo 8 calipers but it seems like a lot of work, you need knuckles from the JDM Mitsubishi Galant. I'll look more into it once I'm serious about getting the brakes but thanks for the quick reply.

You actually don't need the jdm knuckles, you can opt to use a set of brackets sold by a few people/vendors. There might be a slight amount of grinding on the stock knuckle but I hear its very little and nothing to worry about.

edit: Also make sure you have wheels to clear the brakes.
Posted By: Gnanesh Para

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 24, 2010 09:12 pm UTC

Yeah I heard about the brackets but I was over on DSMtuners and not too many people approved of the brackets, maybe they've got better brackets out now but I hate doing things like grinding and stuff. The wheels are also another issue I plan on looking into once the time comes.

Most Big Brake kits use a bracket of some sort.
If it's a strong metal, I see no issue with brackets.

Hairdryer is the one funny expression for T25. Hot and weak in the combination of one word!
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 10, 2010 06:21 am UTC

I drove a hairdryed 2G, with a full 3 inch, dumped o2, intake, plugs, wires, bla bla bla and Jesus that thing spooled up under moderate throttle. It was hitting full boost (stock, no MBC) and the o2 was barking at me when I was trying to drive around normally haha.

It makes my 14B and 16G powered 1Gs feel like they take bloody ages to spool. I dunno, not a fan of the T25. But in the above cases where it's already in the 13s with it, a reliable DD, and the owners already have a much quicker car, it's a personal choice I guess smile

My red AWD (well, primer gray ATM) is going in for paint at the end of the week, I'll post some pics with the fresh factory Indy Red sprayed smile
Posted By: Anthony Hiscock

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 10, 2010 07:01 pm UTC

Maybe it's just cause my 14B has seen better days or because I have 272s but I don't notice a big difference in spool up between it and my old T25.

Thanks Alex.

I just realised I don't have any winter rally pics of the car! I don't think I'll be getting any since I don't do those anymore so very low probability of "off the ground" pics! crazy smile

You were getting close at the ATTS Gymkhana, only 0.8s back! tu Most of that you could've made up with a better line in two spots which comes from more experience. You were looking good out there with just the right amount of rear slip to get the car around some of those tighter corners.

I don't know what they were thinking removing the sideskirts from the 2Gb's (aside from the fact that they were probably better for rust on the rockers)

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 24, 2010 01:04 am UTC

Mudflaps are Rallyarmor, probably the same as yours Eric. I put them on because I drive the car in the winter and the rear 1/4's are prone to chipping from rocks flying up, so this sends them in another direction. I wasn't sure about them but they grew on me after a while..

Though I think they add a more aggressive look to the car, I use the mud flaps for purpose. Like Greg said, the rear 1/4's chip, and I find that the bottom of my rear bumper gets lots of rocks and dirt too. I will be driving my Lancer this winter as well so it just made sense.

Something else I invested in for mine was a set of Weather Tech floor mats. A little expensive but they are a perfect match and they are the best floor mats I've ever seen.

Posted By: Ian Burnside

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 24, 2010 09:25 pm UTC

I told you the floor liners were worth it. I also have Rally Armor mud flaps on my car and i love them. Still cant get them to go straight, maybe next year when its not freezing out.

Thank you! It was painted in a barn in July. What you see there is literally how it came out. I haven't even wet sanded it and polished it yet, I will be doing that in the spring, as well as painting the factory wing to color match. The shell didn't come with one and I ended up picking up a wing and fuel door off a black car. Still haven't decided if I should leave the wing black or paint it red, but if I'm mixing paing and filling my gun with red for the fuel door I might as well do the wing as well.

More like stones out of a farmers field. We also are not allowed to run all season tires here, so I would need a set of snow tires for it.

I really shouldn't take the car on the roads until mid April when they have been swept, but I can't help it and my front bumper has paid the price, it is full of stone chips, it looks awful.

Reza, why 215 width? It seems a bit narrow.. Fitment issue?
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 08, 2011 03:44 pm UTC

I've always only used a 215 tire on the street, never really found the need to add unsprung weight. All my best 1/4 mile track times on street rims/tires were done on a 215/45/17 tire too, it has the best characteristics IMO wink I would go 225 but it would have to be a very lightweight tire, maybe Kumho MX's next time. Also since Kevin K is running an HTA86 and 10:1 compression now, I got to do these little things to try my best to keep ahead of him on the streets cool Adding more tire will only slow the car down up top lol

Actually fitment is good with the +35 offset. I could run a 245 tire with no rubbing issues at all, which some guys are already doing with the same rims on 1g AWD's.

Pardon my curiosity, but if the contact patch isn't as wide as the rim, then why even have a wider rim? Doesn't that also just add more weight?
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 08, 2011 04:47 pm UTC

Not with rpf1's wink . My previous white rims were 17x7 approx 20lbs each. These ones are 17x8 and only 15.6lbs each. Looks more aggressive and weighs about 4-5 lbs less per corner. It could only be better. This is actually a lightweight racing rim. Also slight stretch of a 215 tire on a 8" rim will make steering response a little better, though I didn't care much about that aspect.

Interesting info, do you not have traction issues in lower gears at your power level? What would a 235 tire add in weight vs a 215, maybe 1lb per corner? I would have though the advantage in traction would outweight the minimal additional weight, that is, if your having traction issues with the 215's.

Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 08, 2011 07:13 pm UTC

Yes I can break them loose in 2nd, but the car still moves though. Its fun going sideways with the power I make. I never launch the car on the street anyways, its always 2nd onwards. The difference b/w a 215 and 225 is usually 1 to 4 lbs depending on brand of tire, sometimes even similar. No way I'm running a 235 or 245 tire especially with a 40 series sidewall. Reminds me of a conversation I was having Shandon on the ecmlink forums yesterday. I believe he's on this board too, drives a low 11 sec 1g. He mentioned to me how its been nothing but a boat load of broken parts and axles every since he switched to a 235 or 245 (can't remember) tire from a smaller profile, and has not even had a personal best on them either. Having a tire that gives out matters too. We have AWD, even with a 215 tire you have more traction than most RWD car on the street with wide tires.

You have to remember I have MT slicks mounted on 15" rotas for the track. Getting the biggest tire on the street was not at the top of my list, which might be for others. Weight was my # 1 concern. I also have something now that 99.9% of DSMers don't use, which is a cusco 4 spider LSD center differential smile
Big tires aren't everything, I've been that route before and prefer a 215/45 or max 225/45 tire.

Ya, I remember you still have the seperate set of "real" tires for the track wink Up to 4 lbs heavier from just going from a 215 to a 235 wide? Are we talking comparison between same brand/model or between different brands/models? I can see one tire manufacturers 235 being 4 lbs heavier then anther brands 215 but if its the same brand & model I can't see them actually weighing that much more, for just abit more width. What are the tires made from, lead grin Besides, I thought you were making enought power that rotational weight no longer matters tongue

Why the extra breakage with the wider tire (were still talking equal overall tire height between the two)? Just the fact of having the extra grip?
Posted By: Paul Sitarski

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 09, 2011 04:13 am UTC

My ssr 18x8 with 235 tire are 46lb, by comparison the 98 car has 17x8 with 225 tire and they are 43lb. Keep in mind that it also depends where the weight is on the rim, some rims have thick spokes and thin outside others have thin spokes and thick outside. I think its better to have the heavier part of the rim closer to the hub. Also the 215/45 tire will give you better acceleration being smaller OD the stock. I went with 235/40/18 to keep my OD the same as OEM. When I swapped the 225/45 tire with 17s on my white car I noticed the car a little more responsive due to less weight (3lb) and lower OD. Also keep in mind that usually the higher the speed rating the heavier(or stiffer sidewall) the tire in the same size.

My rim/tire combo defently aren't light weight either, 18x8's w/235's as well. Don't think I've weighed them assembled but I wouldn't be shocked if they weigh 50lbs a corner. I know the benefits of a lighter setup but I haven't been able to convinve myself the performance benefits are worth the look of going to a 17" rim, with their larger sidewall & rather large looking 2g wheel wells. I'm sure a lighter 18" could be found vs what I'm currently running (believe they weighed in at 25lbs ea) but I don't like the look of most lightweight wheels. Not that they all look bad, just seems the styles I prefer are heavy crazy

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 09, 2011 01:10 pm UTC

Hey Daren, you should be able to get a rim thats generally a pound an inch as a light weight wheel.
My last autocross car I used Konig Heliums they were 11 lbs for a 15 inch rim and let me just confirm to you the car was spin happy. When it was with its regular 17 ADR M-Sports it couldnt just break lose in anything other than 1st and then a chirp late in 2nd but with the Konigs and much stickier rubber I would be having issues with traction in 2nd and getting chirps and slides in 3rd.
That being said its always expensive but if you keep an eye out on NASIOC.com there are loads of high quality wheels at decent prices that will fit our cars

Hey Nik,
You are on the right way! It is not a good idea to pain parts while they still on the car. The clutch fluid reservoir does not look good in your pic spy
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 09, 2011 03:02 pm UTC

Daren, there is a weight difference across different brands and the same brand with different sizes even if it is minor. Some may be the exact same and some won't, depends on the tire brand. Then again I'm never going to a 235 tire, I only compare a 215 and 225 tire. Yes 1 lb matters to me smile . Softness and thickness of the sidewall matters to me too. Don't think I'll ever run a 235 on a 1g AWD smile

I've been driving around on 215/45/17 for a long time in 1g DSM's, I don't just go with what works and looks good on paper wink
11.00@136 (FP3065) and 11.6@120 (16g) on almost bald 215/45/17's street tires, with not much failure compared to how many passes I have done at the track. If someone else has a comparable car with bigger tires, chime in.

I couldn't imagine running 18" 50 lbs weights at the end of each one of my axles just because they look good. Making all that power just to have it robbed by 50lbs slugs is a good way to slow your car down. That's just asking for something to break when your making power, probably similar to Shandon's situation. He mentioned to me the weight of his 245/45 rim/tire combo is 47 lbs. Too heavy.

Hey might even be why your running 12's on a FP3052 when you should be in the high 11's at low boost tongue

Or it could be that clipping of an 11 second run isn't a priority for me, if it was I would have changed out my slipping/dragging clutch & been back to the track a long time ago bird

I ran a 12.3 the second pass I made with the car being awd, on 24psi (becuase of the 91 I was forced to run). I have only made about 6 more runs since that, some with up to 28psi (with proper 94 this time). But with a slipping & dragging clutch still managed the same 12.3, also doesn't help when you miss 4th a couple times crazy

We'll see 11's on the 3052 eventually, when I get around to it, even with the heavy 50lb weights on each corner rotflmao

I have no desire to push my car to the limits, breaking things each time you go out isn't what I consider a "fun day".

TRE stage 3 from a couple years back (think he's changed his numbers). It was his top of the line at the time, basically a complete 1-5 evoIII gearset, 4 spider with a TRE LSD insert. Rear diff is stock LSD.

^^ I was debating shaving it and leaving it wingless before paint, but I came to the conclusion I only like it on a Laser. The 1Gb Talon ass is bubbly is you look from a side profile, and the wing is perfectly designed to sharpen it. The shell didn't come with a wing, I have one now but it's black. When spring rolls around I am going to mix the remaining paint/clear I have, and shoot the wing and fuel door, before wet sanding and polishing the whole car. I might shave the antenna hole too, since 1) I don't even have an antenna, and 2) Never listen to radio.

I know the new series Kenwood decks have them too. I have one in my daily driver and it blows the Alpine in my Talon out of the water. It also has an SD card slot, as well as a front aux port, so you could play music a few different ways, as well as a normal CD.
Posted By: Mike Petro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 14, 2011 11:09 pm UTC

The key to an Ipod deck is the navigation. Make sure that deck picks up folders/playlists... or it will be a nightmare trying to find songs.

So if your itunes is setup like:

Billy Talent
- Album 1 Name
- Album 2 Name
- Album 3 Name

You'd want it to pick up the "Billy Talent" folder, not just the album names.

I ran an external for a few months before it was recirculated into the DP. The only time it ever sounded cool was on a narrow road between two 30' or so tall buildings. Defently sounded bad ass but the rest of the time, sounded like a POS with the exhaust falling off. I'd much rather listen to the whine of my dual BB turbo anyday wink

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 15, 2011 09:31 pm UTC

My 44 mm tial dumps straight to the ground right between the oil filter and downpipe, love the sound! Doesn't even sound like an exhaust leak, more like a mean screamin eagle when under full boost. Internal wastegates with o2 dumps sound like a huge exhaust leak, the way my 16g car was. Tials sound more proper and aggressive when dumping. I like dumping. Emmissions and power don't go together wink

Blazing through a tunnel with the wastgate dumping has got to be the coolest sound ever pimp

I guess our opinions differ on what exactly a "mean screamin eagle" sounds like rotflmao

Mine was ran with the Tial 44 as well, using FP's dump tube. Not sure if dump tube lengths make a difference but I defently didn't like mine. Mine is recirculated into the DP just before the lower bend, at a nice angle to not disrupt exhaust flow. Didn't want it recirculated into the O2 housing because of the potential performace decreases.
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 15, 2011 10:44 pm UTC

My min boost is 32 psi on the streets. At the low boost you run Darren, I doubt you get the screamin eagle effect I do wink

Must be the way I got my dump welded that makes it sound smooth, I never hear the exhaust leak sound you describe. I did so on the internal wastgate dump which sounded like a huge exhaust leak. I still liked it though.
Posted By: Paul Sitarski

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 15, 2011 11:50 pm UTC

I agree, my Tial also dumps outside and it sounds awsome at 35-40psi, i have the dump tube extended to be where Rezas is but is extended to be flush with the bottom of the bumper.
Posted By: Jamie Valcamp

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 16, 2011 01:36 am UTC

I liked the sound of mine with the straight dump when I first got the car - straight of the Tial down beside oil filter. The novelty wore off after scaring the CRAP out of more than a few grandmas coming off the on ramp under full boost.
Maybe I'm getting older but I prefer more stealth on the streets. I don't need a loud speaker screaming "Hey I'm over hear and I'm speeding!"
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 16, 2011 03:09 am UTC

I too, like a dumped wastegate, but I don't know if I like it enough to have it on my own car. I'm staying recirculated for now smile

Any air entering the system before the pump can result in it not working. It can take several minutes of priming the pump before it will start to work properly again. I prime my pump manually before EVERY drive, just for peace of mind.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 20, 2011 04:05 pm UTC

Prime without the check valve on. Since its not turning on, I would recheck the whole system, something might be wrong from sitting for so long. I could leave mines all winter long with meth in the system, and its still primed and ready to spray in the spring. A little sneak peak:

Haha thanks Alex smile But I think I've decided against the AWD swap. I don't have the funds to pull it off. Yeah that's my Civic parked on the road. Most reliable car I've owned by far. All I've put into that car was oil changes/gas. Everything else is mint (only 135k) so it should last as long as I need it.

Its got a 4G69 2.4 Mivev engine with sportronic automatic transmission. It should be pretty good on gas from what I've researched. Same 4 clylinder motor in they use in the older lancers and other models.

Original paint?
You are two things behind perfect or 100%
-Between passenger fender and front bumper. Something is there
-Driver door molding.

Otherwise this is the cleanest 1G I've seen not to mention the highest mileage

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 05, 2011 07:29 pm UTC

lol yep 400k Sergio smile . I am pretty sure Tashko on this forum is higher than that.

Alex, not original paint. Unfortunately those door mouldings are discontinued and yes you spotted the only minor rust spot on my car frown
Fortunately my good friend is a body/paint guy and when I asked him how much to fix the blemish, he told me he's just gonna paint the whole car for me.

Yea for sure! I'll admit my car has seen a winter or two. My wifes 1G on the other hand has just under 220k with original engine and transmission, and I consider it cleaner than mines and rust free. I just got it repainted and krowned right before the winter too. All the jack points and rails under her car are still clean and not butchered with jack stands either smile

Picked up brand new CF tech hood and hatch locally for a good price. Weave is perfect, not supposed to fade either. Hopefully this stuff takes kindly to the sun. Just have the hood on at the moment. Needs a little adjustment and shimming still. Plan on replacing the front bumper and rad support next and then I ll probably install a set of hood pins. WOOT for tax returns smile

Posted By: EK

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 12, 2011 07:40 pm UTC

^^ Sometimes with the CF, the hood latch isn't as strong as it should be, and any wind under the hood could cause the latch to break, causing disaster. At least that's what I'm told.

I know 2 guys who have had their CF hoods fly open and smash the windshield. Get hood pins. A CF hood wants to fly like a kite at high speeds.

On the bright side, a CF hood still looks more intact than an OEM hood after smashing the windshield.
Posted By: Mike Lane

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 12, 2011 07:52 pm UTC

Lol yes Bashar it will be when I put the new one on. I didnt think you were still interested in it? If so shoot a PM. I m trusting the hood for a month or so and no more though. One hood into the window was enought for me (although due to my own stupidity, it had pins). IMO id rather pins than risk in excess of 1000 damages. Im lucky I wasnt going all that fast and only wasted a 400 dollar hood. Window and roof no signs of damage, took it like a champ!

When I first got my AWD running it only had the drivers seat... My girlfriend insisted I take her for a ride. So I did. She sat down, and I figured I would let her hold the boost gauge since the interior was all missing.

She did. I drove around gently and accelerated hard in first, and as soon as the turbo spooled up she went flying into the back part of the car somewhere.

Talk about abuse...

Painting, ahh. I need to get mine redone again. The place I went to in Toronto did a decent job for a decent price, but it didn't last. I don't think I drive too close to people.. but the stones still hit it. Might look into that 3M clear film...

Well, I cleaned mine up today a bit. Had to put on the stock tails to pass mechanical....looks like ass. Gonna put the smoked ones back on. The bumper had the big cutout when I got it so I left it. Thought that since there is such a big hole I would put the Greddy on the FMIC to take attention away from the huge hole. Will get a new bumper next year when it gets repainted!

Nice clip Shandon, makes me really miss the boost now. It's probably listed in this thread somewhere, but what turbo & boost are you running?

Tim, the first thing that sticks out, add zip ties to all your vacuum lines. Its good insurance as I know you plan to be running some decent boost. I'd also add some heat protection to the vacuum line that runs to the WG.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 01, 2011 04:42 am UTC

If a cop wants to be a dick he will ticket you for your muffler. If you want to avoid a muffler ticket, then you will have to keep it stock. In the end, every harley davidson in the world goes above the federal db limit, even a city bus on acceleration has a higher db limit than any exhaust I have had on any of my cars. It's just the car that attracts the attention, and if the cop is in a bad mood, you will get a ticket for something ridiculous.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 01, 2011 05:02 am UTC

I just keep my car appearing stock on the outside. And my muffler is really not noticeable. It's a Magnaflow 3" in and I think 3" out with no tip on it, so it just kinda hides in the bumper
Posted By: Daren Peacock

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 01, 2011 02:12 pm UTC

If its an import with a "fart can", it will likely get a ticket, no matter how quiet it is. My old Apexi N1 system was super quiet, with an actual dB test about the same level as a stock 99 Grand Am & quiter then a stock Ford Explorer & I got hasseled all the time. Went to court 3 times & had it dropped & talked my way out of getting a ticket probably 5 times.

My current exhaust looks identical to stock & is much louder then my old Apexi N1 system. I have not been bothered since I swicted 3 summers ago.

They say its about how loud the car is, thats BS, its what the muffler looks like. If it looks stock, you'll be fine.

I agree with you there. I have a cherry bomb exhaust and when i got pulled over there was a Transport truck beside me with a blown muffler and a harley behind me. I find it hard to believe he heard me at all. I tried to fight it in court stating that the db was below and what the stats on a truck and harley etc were but the judge was a douche. She said since it was not a "dealer" muffler it was illegal. WTF?? I have never heard of such a rule! Then how do any other companies stay in business. It all depends on the cop and how they feel that day. I paid my fine and moved on frown I think i have had 3 in the last 2 years.
Posted By: Daren Peacock

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 02, 2011 05:00 pm UTC

I use to keep a copy of the law in the car with me, cops liked to tell me its illegal because its not OEM, its illegal because its straight through, it won't pass emissions, blah blah. They usually changed their tune when I politely told them I have a copy of section 75A (think thats the right one, its been awhile) in the car with me & if they'd like to go over the details with me to see what part of the law my muffler doesn't meet?

There is nothing in that section that states the muffler has to be OEM, it doesn't even have a specific limit. It states you must have a muffler, it must prevent excessive noise & can't be modified (ie gutted, etc). A dB test was always enough to get the charge dropped for me.

Frederic, I'm using a universal Vibrant, 3" in dual 2.5" out. Then I have a pair of Vibrant slanted, 2.5" tips welded on. The tip shape & size is almost identical to the stockers, I even had them welded stagered to follow the body lines, just like stock. The muffler comes polished, I bead blasted it to give it a factory OEM colour. I've had other DSM owners think my muffler was stock, it is that good.

Mike, I do have some pics but nothing uploaded online, will try to do that sometime & post them up here.

I will be contesting the ticket, based on the way the QC cops judge that it is too loud. He pulled me over, was able to put a measuring tape in more than 30", he said this made it illegal. So I asked what about SRT4's, and Mazda Speeds, and yup, how about your crown vic patrol car with mufflers mid stream, hell you could put the tape in about 6 feet. He said it didn't matter. Ok, fine, be that way. Here is a good resource for anyone who wants to fight a muffler ticket.

Posted By: Yan Sarazin

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 12:20 pm UTC

I've been lucky so far. I've passed cops several times and quite a few of them were staring at me. They might have had something better to do than stop me for missing front plate. Or they just thought I was from Quebec smile

I need to fab some kind of bracket to get it mounted away from the FMIC, and without drilling holes in the front of the bumper
Posted By: Mike Petro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 01:09 pm UTC

The stock OEM license plate bracket works well if you turn it upside down and mount it underneath the bumper
Posted By: Yan Sarazin

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 01:43 pm UTC

I'm trying to avoid blocking the the FMIC as much as I can. Thinking I'll try mounting it Evo style.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. You mount below the bottom of the fog light opening (under the bumper)

Was just thinking that if it sits too low that it might draw attention from the Police.

No? Because it's not as "visible" or something for red light cameras.
Posted By: Rob Strelecki

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 04:17 pm UTC

Red light cameras only get the rear plate..

I think the law is that it must be attached to the front of the vehicle and visible. Like most things, the definition of "visible" is probably a matter of the cop's imagination.
Posted By: Brandon Clement

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 04:21 pm UTC

They say the reason for having a front license plate is that if you get in an accident and drive away people might not be able to catch the back plate if you are driving fast enough or something. That's what the cop told me when I got my front plate ticket.

It just has to be visible in the front somewhere.
Posted By: EK

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 05:24 pm UTC

Doesn't matter where it's mounted on the front, so long as it's visable. Both of my cars have it mounted on the front driver side corner, which is easier for oncoming traffic to see than on the passenger side corner, but I was even pulled over in my Lancer for no front plate when the OPP didnt see it. He promptly let me go when he saw it. Really it's no big deal anyway, even the ticket is only $110.00, no points, no insurance premium. Height and location of plate doesnt matter.
Posted By: Rob Strelecki

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 06:57 pm UTC

It must be "displayed on the vehicle, in the prescribed manner" (as per the HTA). So I guess that means you have to follow the instructions that come with the plate. ponder
Posted By: Brian O'Day

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 23, 2011 07:21 pm UTC

I had both ends of the stick so to speak. On my talon I got a ticket for having it in the front window, but when I had it mounted in the same spot in my RX7 I had no issues at all and both were mounted with suction cups half way up the window not just thrown on the dash. I think it depends on whether or not the cop feels like being a dick,lol.

I'm already giving the government thousands of dollars in taxes a year, the last thing I want is to give them another $110 for a bs ticket haha

Tomorrow I think I'm going to move my plate to my passenger side.

I'll be honest Mike and say I wasn't too crazy about the color and the black rims but it grew on me over the last few months.

The thing I enjoy the most though, is the reaction of people that have no knowledge on our cars and are quite surprised on how quick they are. I don't consider mine quick by any means but a friend of mine was over last night helping me install my HID retrofit and I took him for a drive to test the lights. When the car hit 22lbs, the look on his face was priceless lol.

Paint is good to have but it's optional. I've been delaying paint for years. It is all about how she runs and usually paint does not interfere with adrenaline rush while u in the car wink

Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 15, 2011 07:50 pm UTC

I actually tried to buff up the headlights with Mothers Aluminum polish. Didn't seem to make much of a difference this time around.

Yes that's soap on the driveway, I took the pic last weekend. I hadn't actually washed the car since the clear coat was still drying on the fenders, I just washed the dust off the wheels. They got a little dirty while my friend was cleaning up the fenders. Best thing of all was this was all done for FREE last Sunday in about 5 hours while I sat and watched my friend work at it. The rust was actually grinded out, new metal welded in, tacked up and grinded down. No bondo used. He told me that was the REAL way to do it smile Front bumper was also painted properly. The original paint was all grinded down, he did a base, primer, 3 coats of paint and 3 coats of clear. Says the paint on the front bumper should last a long time.

Hood is a carbon fiber one from CF tech in Hamilton.

I've tried the kit Permatex makes on other vehicles & the results weren't that great (well not compared to some of the other results I've seen). I think the key is to get a kit with sanding disks & buffers you can put on a drill. Elbow grease alone doesn't seem to get the best results. Think Meguires & 3M make kits that are good.

Also see your missing the front emblem. If you need/want to run a front emblem, I'm pretty sure JNZ has come out with reproducion emblems, that look just like the stocker. Their the raised, embossed ones, not some cheesy vinyl or something.

Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 15, 2011 08:17 pm UTC

The vinyl Eagle emblem was on this bumper before it got painted. I ripped it off and tossed it. I have no emblems or stickers on my car smile I like the clean look.

This front bumper was actually a spare white one I had. My old one had it removed too and I liked it that way. I don't mind the Eagle outline.

Door jams still have all sticker, just the front, back and sides of the car have it removed.

Well, here's my '99 gsx. It's been one hell of a journey to get the car to look the way it does today. I picked it up about two years ago and since then, did a 6bolt swap (balance shaft removed)arp head steads, tubular mani and 16g, fmic (which isn't connected, anyone with a tig could help me out here ;)) bully stage 3 clutch, fidanza lwfw, hks 3" cat back, link v3 (help shandon lol)tokico whites and eiby pros (1.5"), autometer gauges, had to replace the steering rack, column, pager alarm, all four rotors, calipers and pads (oe), I've pretty well restored the entire interior. Those wheels are a strange fit, they're 18x7.5 34mm offset. The tires aren't the right size, they're a 215/35/18. I'm looking for a set of 225/40's or 235's. Other than that, the car runs great! It's my second dsm ('91 tsi before) and probably won't be my last one. I'd like to get my hands on 1ga winter beater! smile

Enjoy the pics and thanks for looking!

I judge based on current registration and license plate. Yes gas tank is ugly but this is how I got the car. The few things that make our DSMs look better are aftermarket rims and lowered suspension. Other than that I prefer original look.

Thanks Yan. Previous owner mount his license plate by screwing it straight through the bumper. I don't recommend you do that because that would hurt your DSM and eventualy you'll endup repainting your bumper to correct that. bah

I had a feeling that's how it's mounted. I just painted my bumper so there's no way I'm doing that. I will be trying to come up with a bracket that mounts underneath somehow.

Hey Yan, someone on the board, I think maybe Ryan L or Anthony H, told me you get those super strong earth magnets. Mount some inside the bumper, and some to the plate, and connect it to the bumper that way!
Posted By: Mike Petro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 25, 2011 10:54 pm UTC

I use the stock license plate bracket, just screwed it into the bottom of the bumper. But the magnet idea is the cleanest for sure.

These magnets wont cause any problems with the car? I know my tv doesn't like when magnets are near. I'm guessing the DSM might not either.
Posted By: Brandon Clement

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 26, 2011 12:28 am UTC

If it's in the bumper, it is pretty far away from any sensors. And things like the crank angle sensor are just a big magnet anyways tongue

Another nice clean looking 1g Lucian. Original paint?
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2011 04:58 pm UTC

Thank you smile Nope, the original red was destroyed. This car was a parts car, that was stripped of everything, sat in a field, and was beaten. Keyed, ball-peen hammered, smashed windshield, cut dashboard, bent rims, etc. Interior looked like a mini world war just occured in there, and the exterior was missing half of the pieces it needed. It was just pretty clean rust-wise, so I tackled on the project.

I think I saved her smile

That gives me a lot of hope for my car because my paint is terrible and yours looks this good DIY!

Here is yesterday's work. After 10 years I will finally recirculate. Hey at least I got really good at heel-toe smile
The welds on the old pipes were leaking the whole time too.

What you want is the car I got.

'92 TSi AWD, untouched, 201k. 7/4, E-Prom, 5-Speed, Sunroof, no ABS. June '92 car, so pretty much the first 7-bolt off the line, still had/has the single-piston front calipers unfortunately frown

Got a 6-bolt in it now as the the stock motor has bent intake valves and it was cheaper to buy the motor (than repair the head) tongue

Soon it'll beeven more reliable than that VDub of your's too wink

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2011 07:35 pm UTC

Unfortunately, it will never be more reliable than my Vdub, but could be like a nice early 90s Ford Taurus

Lucian, your car looks great.

Brandon, not be a dick, you're a good guy, but your arrogance is becoming slightly annoying man.

You bought your MR-2, crashed it but when you had it, it was the best thing since sliced bread.

You came back to DSM.

You bought your Bike, started dissing all the guys on 4 wheels, on the board, saying bikes are where it's at.

You came back to DSM.

You now have your VW. I own a VW, 2008 GLI. They ARE nice cars, but coming on here and throwing your nose up to every guy who's helped you out over the years with your car, those who you have learned lots from and slamming all of us on here who own DSMs is rude and uncalled for. If you feel you've moved on to bigger and better things, then so be it.

You don't like the cars, quit hanging around on DSMCanada and go to VWVortex. We don't need your smart-ass comments about the car you once loved on here. Come on man, we're all still people, we all have a common interest. Stop being such an ass.
Posted By: Brandon Clement

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 08, 2011 01:17 am UTC

Dude shut the frack up and learn to take some jokes. Did you forget to change your tampon?

Bikes are where it's at, the MR2 was more stylish and fun to drive than the DSM.

If anything, you should start hanging at at Force Power, with your shotty mechanic work and charging people an arm and a leg for it. Don't tell me where I should and should not "hang out", I'm still working on DSMs for people for free, giving parts to people for free, and my knowledge of these cars for free in numerous messages, texts, visits, posts etc.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 31, 2011 05:16 pm UTC

Being the province with most roads per capita tends to lend itself to some pretty awful roads. Being able to see for miles does rock in a lot of ways, but painfully dull being able to see anything and everything that might cause you to react.

I remember driving to Eston for a badminton tourney...broken pavement 16km. 10km later, broken pavement next 13km. 11km later, broken pavement next 32km. etc... That was one of the worse highways I have ever been on. Usually you can avoid a majority of pot holes by driving the crown, but this road you needed to find ditch to avoid the 6" deep holes.

I also need to fix up my suspension a bit...last time I went over 200km/h on the open road, she was starting to float and lift a lil bit...not a fun feeling.

I don't have any completed pictures, I'll take a few in the next couple of days and post them.

Nothing special about the set up, HRC 16g turbo/mani, 3"exhaust, 2.5" IC pipes (its an ugly set up but it works), slim fans, filled front and rear motor mounts, UDP, 3" pipe on the intake side filter sits about the same height as the crossmember.

Hahahaha, I could imagine. It is too funny man. I've never seen a sticker of him on a car around here yet, so I got one for my dub and one for my next car.

I was debating on getting one but my plan is to decal my car up like a rally car, maybe I will put the pedo in the rear window.

I wasn't a big fan of the vented carbon fiber hoods, but this one i only paid $100, and when it's painted to match the car, i think it will look good. Other than that, i will leave the body stock, and continue my pursuit of speed and handling.

A guy from my lancer board has the same hood paint matched,and it looks awesome. check this.

No, but it needs it in the rear, the fenders have started to cut my tires. The trip to the shootout did more of it, with my a fold up table, sub, 2 lawn chairs, bag of tools, pop up tent for the Mitsu-Media booth and clothes/laptops and whatever else. Could hear the tires scrub on almost every uneven bridge.

I find it hard to believe any other province has worse roads than Quebec. I've been to Ontario, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, PEI, Vermont, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire and Maine, and none compare to Quebec.

Toronto is sh!t for roads, horrible. I spent more time lifting myself on my pegs on my bike, then I did actually sitting on the seat when I was riding down there.

Durham region, the main roads are great, just some side streets in the lower income areas are sh!t.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 28, 2011 05:25 pm UTC

Quebec's roads are the worst. Even in my jeep there are some places I would consider taking a detour to avoid.

Not to mention they're dummies when it comes to road maintenance/repair. 2 years ago they paved the main road going to my house (it had been dirt up until then). This summer they had a giant excavator using a chisel from the middle of the road on a ditch. Needless to say that section of the road has 3" holes where the asphalt was.

Tim, thank you, the interior went through many changes over the years, but piece by piece, she came together.

I think I'm going to put her up for sale on the board, as I really don't have time to part it out, but who knows. Take a week off work to tear her apart would be fun, but a lot of headaches.

I'm not a fan of the cut out either brandon but i still have 4 3/4" still hiding behind bumper up top and 1 and half " at the bottum.. I cut 3" off to try and open it up a bit .. but with c02 FMIC spray and M10 shot of meth I doubt I needed to do that tongue

I was debating cutting my bumper up, and decided against it. Even though I still have a good half or so of the core hidden behind the bumper cover, I did trim the underneath of the bumper cover a bit. This way there's some more room for the air to flow across to the top, while retaining a stock look.

I've heard that building something to funnel the air up and into the fmic is better than cutting.

They are most likely using a dremel with a cutting disc! Tape it up, mark your lines and start cutting

MK4s can be dropped pretty low. A lot of people remove the bump stops and perches to get even MOAR static low. Insanity. The mk4 jetta that I posted has the stance I'm looking for. That's static too, which is just great.

-Driver side fender is out of alignment.

Other than that it does look good. AWD tu

I dunno why that fender is so messed up, but, Brendan took his Eclipse bumper off for the winter.

I think you mean the passenger side, and its getting painted in the spring so will fix it then, it has a top crease which is aiming the tip of the fender up. The eclipse bumper will be going back on before paint, also need to find a rear bumper and spoiler.

Jason W. if the 1g single piston are just as usless as the 2g singles you going to love the duals.

Some of my friends think I spent a fair bit of money swapping them in, it made that big of an improvement.
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 16, 2011 01:30 pm UTC

The single pistons are pretty damn good in my opinion, I would be curious to do a comparison! Is it a lot of work Jason?
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 16, 2011 05:42 pm UTC

Number is pistons is not the only factor, the size of the piston makes a big difference. The Baer's on my car are only 2 piston but they are about twice the size of the stock 2g 2 piston calipers.
Posted By: Ziggy Dietrich

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 16, 2011 06:45 pm UTC

I think the best way is to figure out the braking force of a caliper is to calculate the total AREA of all the pistons. It is also surprising how a small increase in diameter makes a BIG difference in the area.
Posted By: Ryan Laliberte

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 16, 2011 07:23 pm UTC

Also, increasing the area of the piston intensifies the force behind it using the formula F=PXA where F is braking force applied to the rotor, P is the pressure of the fluid behind the piston and A is the area in which the fluid is being applied to.

A 1cm2 with 100psi applied = 100lbs of force
A 2cm2 with 50psi applied = 100lbs of force

Increasing the size of your piston will in turn increase how deep your teeth dig into the steering wheel. wink
Posted By: Jason Weir

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 16, 2011 09:47 pm UTC

Well it was a lot of work but I enjoyed it, I ahve tried to be involved with the build of my car in every aspect up to the point where I run out of talent...timing belts!! (I know how to now do one but still its not worth it in my opinion to take that risk)

I did the whole brake upgrade new rear rotors and pads picked up the crossed drilled, pads and calipers from a guy on here from Que and spent my time sand blasting them to get the red pain decent on them (big help in clamping force of a caliper if it looks cool!)
I started at 11 and worked straight through to 4 and also did the braided front brake lines. Not bad for a mechanically inclined person not a mechanic.
Results have been happy its better braking all round but never having to stuff them hard yet I have not had to taste steering wheel.
All in all the work was fun I learned a few things about how to bleed a brake system a bit easier (Gravity) and did it all for 300 bucks when I did the math from the dealership side of things it was close to 2 grand parts and labour

Just to add to that Ryan, the 2cm^2 piston will require twice as much fluid to move as the 1cm^1, you're just using the fluids as levers. Within reason all is good but go to the extremes of large and a huge multi piston caliper mounted to a stock master will feel mushy since your pedal will have to move so much further to move enough fluid to build the pressure it takes to stop the car (mind you it would still probably stop the car way faster than stock ;)).

Ah however that may be, it still requires less force on the brake pedal. You cannot compress a fluid, so no matter the size of the system, any small amount of pressure will translate into a great amount of force placed on its acting area. A 1cm2 piston with 25lbs of force will create 25psi of pressure, applied to a 2cm2 piston will translate into 50psi of force. wink

Hey Rob, nice crank. wink

zthats just over 30kph difference almost enough to get the hefty fine in Ontario. Biggest fine in the speeding catigory in NS but there is always larger fines like stunting $2500

That's it? Stunting in Ontario is up to $50,000, 7 points, roadside seizure and suspension.

30KM over is 4 points and a kick to the nuts for insurance. Does California share with Ontario?

Oh and the speedometer excuse worked for me one time in NY state tongue Although if anything we should end up slower.. "I am generally confused." grin

Rob I meant that he could use that excuse the following way: "Oh officer, I thought my speedo' was in kms, so I got confused and thought I was reading it in kms. So I thought I had to go faster, closer to 100km/h to reach the 65mph speed limit."

Dude, speeding fines in California are BAD.

My girlfriend used to live in San Diego, and she told me it's like BAM $300+ dollars for anything like that. Plus they have the 3 times and your out thing as well.

So if you go to court for the same offense 3 times, they chuck you in jail.

I think it has to be a criminal offense, and not speeding.

Not sure though.

Be careful they're strict down there!

There are also radar detector detector detectors, so you can shut your equipment off before they detect you.

Cops have radar detector detector detector detectors too, to catch drivers that aren't ahead of the cop tech.

I am not even joking!

I did have a radar detector that also detected the device the OPP uses to spot your detector(VG2)-it used to scream and flash, VG2,VG2, and then shut off. Of course the one time it malfunctioned I got caught. $165(at the time) fine and confiscation of unit-luckily I had an old throw away detector just for that,lol. Anyway, I now have a Bel sti which are undetectable, but I mostly just use it for entertainment.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 01, 2012 12:20 am UTC

True, I got nailed with a radar detector about 7 years ago. Blue unmarked Impala at the time, hunted me down on the 401. I got a speeding ticket over a year ago and had one of those 2 outlet inverters on my seat, and the cop asked what it was, so I showed him. Then he said the reason he asked was that he saw on my record I'd been caught with a radar detector and thought it looked similar.
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 01, 2012 07:27 am UTC

However, since the Bel STi is undetectable... and if it's hidden... the only possible way I think they could suspect anything is if they hit the car with laser and jams.

Because let's face it. If I was a cop, and my laser gun jammed when pointing it at a lowered, loud red/black 2 door with a shiny radiator thing in front of it, I would pull it over and investigate.

Now the question is, how often is laser used? I doubt the police department here has very many. I know we only have 2 or so cruisers with on-car radars. OPP on the other hand, is a lot more common. That's actually how I got nailed with my speeding ticket, OPP cruiser driving in the opposite direction, and he had his on-car radar ready.
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 01, 2012 01:27 pm UTC

Yeah but Lucian you don't have to worry about that. The STi is a detector not a jammer, and is supposed to be able to detect a great amount of distance.

Check the video for how the spectre works.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 08, 2012 06:57 pm UTC

I used my engine hoist and leveler last night since I was alone. It does takes longer since I have to pull it out and position it up and all. The good thing is you can get it perfectly straight and not hung up on anything at all, which is crucial when installing a twin disk. The last thing you want is the input shaft getting hung up on the disks, so you want to put the tranny on perfectly straight. Easily done with a hoist and leveller by yourself.

If I have a friend I get him to stand up top while I bench the tranny in from under the car: Lay next to trans, put trans on my chest with help from my friend, keep eyes on dowels, bench and slide tranny on while keeping eyes on the dowels. Keeping your eyes on the dowels while your underneath the car is key, it will line up and slide right on. Makes it a 30 second job. Works for me all the time.

I don't try to bench a tranny in the car with no one else around.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 04:39 am UTC

When I did my tranny by myself on the 2g, I used a hoist and a lifting strap. Just choked a 6' strap around the body and was able to snug it into place kinda easily. The strap didn't have enough friction to prevent it from turning slightly when I needed it to, but enough to prevent it from rotating on its own. Still haven't figured out how much I should let the engine tilt down to make my life easier on the 2g.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 06:20 am UTC

I just lay on a creeper and put the tranny on my chest, rull under the car and lift it up in place, works really well actually if you have everything out of the way. I find it harder with someone else cause they don't usually know their way around a dsm. Not with a twin disk mind you.
Posted By: Andrew Trapp

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 12:20 pm UTC

Is there something I'm missing because whenever I had to try putting the tranny back into place, there is the one stiffiner that keeps jamming against the subframe when I do it. I basically tilt the engine down until the crank pulley is against the fender well and still have a bitch of a time with that stiffener.

If its the same issue, I've found the engine likes to roll/tilt back when the tranny is off & the front of the car jacked. On a 2g, this leaves not enough room between the tranny & the subframe. What I now do is wedge a block of wood between the engine & the subframe, this prevents the engine from rolling & spaces it abit further from the subframe. With this done, I put the tranny on a floor jack & jack it straight up & slide it into place. Its an easy one person job with this method.
Posted By: Andrew Trapp

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 06:47 pm UTC

I used a jack on the oil pan to control the tilt of the engine, I thought it was slightly easier with the engine tilted down a bit, it's easier with the engine level?

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 06:58 pm UTC

You're supposed to use a block of wood to prevent poking through with the jack. Even then, the motor doesn't weigh that much, you'd probably need to start lifting the car with it to push it in.

It's more likely they bottomed out on the road..

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 07:54 pm UTC

As long as it's not bent too much, but if it was bent too much you would have known already cause your engine would have been oiled starved and overheated and potentially seeze.
Posted By: Rob Strelecki

Re: Post your car pic page?. - February 10, 2012 08:06 pm UTC

That's right, it'd have to be dented far enough to interfere with the oil pick-up. There is some room, plus the pick-up is this wide strainer thing and you'd have to mangle the tube to obstruct it.

The 1990 Talons only came stick. The 91 were the first to offer an auto could be an early production 91 and they figured it would be cheaper to just make that dome console then to retool a new gauge assembly. Check his build date.

Nice pics of the blocks Rob!

The wrinkle red one which is mine is going to be a 8:1 2.3L. Not going for max power but rather a nice wide powerband that can take a 30min road race session without causing harm.

Assembly to follow as soon as I decide on the set of rods i want to buy!

The powder looks awesome on the blocks and really does put painted blocks to shame in comparison and hte durability is unmatched.

So whats the completetion ETA on the build Mike, 2015? tongue

Looking good, but why such low compression? I would think 9:1 would be a better option? My bottom is ~8.8:1 & on straight 94 (meth off), I can run 23-24psi, no problem. Thats still with 15deg or so of timing up top.

This august wil be 5yrs since it ran.........i'll take the cristism lol. I want it to run soon

Now i just need Reza to chime in with a smart a$$ remark

Same excuse. Life is busy, Brightside is growing, career is going well and the car took the back seat.

I want a track car to beat the crap out of at the track as I'm starting feel bad for the Mini after a track day.

Mark, I even deleted the column out of my spreadsheet that shows how much i could part it out for!

Rob got me motivated again to get it done and also got me motivated to create even more projects for it. Even though the motor will be pretty it can only sit on the engine stand for so long....

Reason for 8:1. Couple reasons, room for error in tune, take a beating for longer at elevated temps on the road course and because i got BNIB Magnus spec stroker pistons for $250.

If I were to actually run the car in the winter I would for sure have snows on it; they are required by law from Dec 15th to Mar 15th here in QC and from the little I have driven it in the snow, when the boost hits 25 psi it's actually a little tricky to handle!

Hey Rob did ever have any idle issues not running a PCV?
Posted By: Rob Cauduro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 13, 2012 01:44 am UTC

No, not at all.

Speed sensor, throttle body closed switch, IAC, BISS and TPS all work together to produce a flawless idle. The PVC is useless.

Make sure all of the above are functioning 100% on a 1g for a good idle.

Oh and the FIAV shouldnt be overlooked as well wink
Posted By: Stephen Richardson

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 13, 2012 02:06 am UTC

I am just surprised your IAC could compensate for the 25% reduction of idle air. You didn't make any other adjustments?

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 13, 2012 02:28 am UTC

No worries Rob. I don't need to know how to do it. Already learn idle adjustments 20 so years ago.

My wife got tired of me working on the car all the time. She said i had to get something more reliable. I told her the only way i get rid of my car is if i get a new toy. It needed to be 4 door because of the baby. The Evo was an easy sell. lol. All i had to do was let her drive it once and she was hooked.

CTS-V SportWagon (6-Speed)! E63 AMG Wagon! Older RS4/6 Avant!

If I come into any kind of money, my DD will be a CTS-V SportWagon. Practical, fast, and fun. Best part is...it's sexy too!

What cars did you consider?

They're all nice vehicles, but the CTS(-V) SportWagon is the only one you can get in standard unless you manage to find an older (R)S4/6 Avant or BMW M5 Estate and one of only a few high performance wagons currently available new (mainly the V and the E63 AMG Wagon which is also a gorgeous and ridiculous vehicle).

Wouldn't kick any of them out of bed but being able to put down one of the top Nurburgring times in a family hauler while rowing your own...doesn't get much better than that.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 16, 2012 03:54 pm UTC

I drove a standard Cadillac a few years ago and if it is anything like that I probably won't ever get one. You had to let your foot off clutch and let the car start moving and then you could gas it. If you gassed before you let off the clutch it would stall. I would hope that because this is the sport edition that it wouldn't have that "feature".

TurboX SportCombi


Beautiful car but the powerful variant is not in production anymore (at least not as far as I can tell from searching - Saab has THE worst site).

Another wagon I love is the Volvo V70R. Hard to find, but complete sleepers, fantastic quality, and 6-speed AWD. Can't go wrong!

The TurboX only came with these options, auto or 6-speed, SportSedan or SportCombi, and of course the choice of a colour: black on black or black on black.
They all share the same powertrain 2.8l turbo v6 280hp/300tq, XWD.
I have the 6-speed SportCombi with the above power train.

The first two pictures are of Aero SC, the last wan is a TurboX.

Lots of soap, many buckets of hot water, five or six wire brushes from princess auto, and a broken back tongue

Why do you guys refer to the 1G 4G63NT's as ESI's? That's a low blow to the 1G's... the 2G 420A's are ESI's. That '93 is an ES. No "I" needed wink
Posted By: Rob Strelecki

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 28, 2012 05:31 pm UTC

I believe ESi started in '93. Before '93 it was just ES.
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 28, 2012 06:10 pm UTC

The 90-92 non-turbos were called just the Talon, or base and came with a 4G63NT. In '93, the 4G37 was introduced to the Talon lineup, so they needed a name to separate the non-turbo's. Thus, 93-94 4G37 was called the Talon DL, and 93-94 4G63NT was the Talon ES.

Also, I owned a '94 ES wink
Posted By: Rob Strelecki

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 28, 2012 06:34 pm UTC

I had a '93 Talon DL, my first DSM tu Sometime before '93 (1Ga only IIRC), there was a 4G37 Laser without the hump on the hood.

I am 99.9% sure I have seen the ESi badge on 1Gb cars. Probably different trim levels for 4G63NT. Kobie had one, maybe he can confirm smile

My engine isnt anything special, or anything that hasnt been done a thousand times already (well I built a 7 bolt thats not that common)

My goal is suspension tuning, building a exceptional closed circuit car that can keep up with the Porches and look like a million bux wink Drag racing is boring. (no offense)

I do love your cars colour, and the wheels couldnt be a more perfect fit. Seriously clean tight ride Jason.

I hear you on the drag racing getting boring, there isn't anything else around here to do really. Vermont has is SCCV club that does some auto-x and hill climbs, I may try to get into some of that this year.

So this is the 92 awd auto me and my wife have been working on. She changed the tranny filter and replaced the rear brakes.

Its now on the road fully legal and etested with flying colours!

It was sitting in a buddys back yard for 3 years with a blown motor. I eventually sorta bought it for $150 (halves with Jay macellen... he took the wheels and the tach bezel.)

I was gonna scrap it but found out it was just loose flywheel bolts. Tightened them up it ran fine! It needed rear disks(I had off my old 1g anyway) , some brake lines, a tranny filter and a couple new gaskets and bulbs and done. Maybe $250 in it total!

Its got 180,000kms

Actually heard a studies on the radio yesterday... apparently drivers under the age of 21 riding with another kid under 21, have a much higher rate of accidents then any other sober drivers...either gender. But the 21 year old with a older rider have a much less then average accident rate. But Old people top them in accidents with no excuse. Remember this is not counting drunk or stoned people.

Posted By: Rob Cauduro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 14, 2012 04:11 am UTC

M&M plating in Scarberia. 175 minimum lot charge, plus 60 dollars to strip any cadium/zinc from them prior to plating.

I paid almost 300 because I did Mike Degli Angeli's too, and the cost was more because we wanted to keep the lots separate, so theres not too much savings when you get a buddy involved.

Took two business days to get them back. You can get lots of different colours. I like black.

Notice the second bolts pic. I spent about 5 hours in front of a pedestal grinder cleaning the rust off and polishing them before the plating. The better you do, the better the bolts turn out.

EDIT: This is nearly every bolt on the car laugh F*ck you rust laugh

Rob, I am building an engine over the next year and I am definitely keeping on eye on what you are doing as inspiration. My engine now was basically just do what I can to get it together and do it well while not spending too much. I like the colours you chose they all look real good.

its been buzzed off where o-rings meet sealing surfaces. wink

Hoses Im not worried about. All new silicone will be installed. All new clamps. Those combined with the beads, should hold for years and years.

I put 150km on it yesterday, mostly city driving, seems nice so far!

Far better than this badly machined stocker, this was the cause of my Southbend Kevlar disk not holding 25+ psi. The surface is lower in the center than the outer edge.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 29, 2012 03:03 pm UTC

^ Your first pic looks familiar to my situation a week ago lol. I have the same flywheel now with a 2600 6 puck. Whoever machined the flywheel on the DSM i bought did a terrible job at it, step heights were all over the board, .603,.611,.580,.510 etc lol. The problem was it was creating unequal pressure on the pressure plate forks.. and it basically exploded, sending the forks to rattle around in the bell housing.. So i basically replaced every trans piece available, ordered a new pivot fulcrum (which i shimmed, sits much nicer and has a better pedal feel). Hope it works out for you!
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 29, 2012 03:35 pm UTC

Ya, I could never get my pedal to feel quite right before, now after the driving yesterday it feels great, like it should have.

Tim Zimmer of TMZ Performance(creator of this SB clutch) told me to media blast the flywheel and pressure plate surfaces lightly and remove the glazing on the Kevlar disk with 600 grit sand paper before re-assembly, doing this will allow the Kevlar to re-embed itself in the surfaces much quicker. I have to give it more a less another full break in period though unfortunately.

MPH ... 90.12
1/4 ... 11.912
MPH ... 118.62

I am going to work on bringing 60' times a tad lower, and get as much as I can out of this setup and my 250k+ 3.5 cylinder stock bottom end. Hopefully I can get into the mid-low 11's with a bit more boost and some more seat time.

Notice any difference driving the car vs the old setup? Thats about the amount of weight I was looking to drop. Current rims (18's) weigh 25.5 lbs IIRC (with rubber, its defently not a light setup). Still sticking with 18's but the ones I have my eye in should come in around 19 lbs or slightly less.

Nice rims Tyler! I too am a fan of lightweight rims. I'm running 17x8 RPF1's. They weigh like 15.3 lbs each wink

Running heavy rims on a car is definately poo.

Daren,
Your car will brake quicker, accelerate quicker, turn quicker, have less strain on drivetrain parts, and have a better road feel. Its a win win in every aspect, and well worth the money especially for a car as nice as yours smile I'd look for something lighter than 19 lbs if possible, its definately worth the extra bucks!

Ya, I'm aware of all the benefits of less rotational weight, just curious if dropping 6lbs per corner, was enough to be noticeable in the "real world" (& in a vehicle that makes more then 150hp, etc).

I'd go lighter if there were options but the problem is for proper fitment, don't think there is a whole lot of options out there, well atleast not in 18's. Plus, I want them to still look decent. The car wasn't built to be an all out track car, so I'm not going to run smaller rims, that don't look as good, just to be lighter. I know 18's defently aren't ideal as far as performance is concerned but I'm not a fan of smaller rims on 2g's, with their large wheel wells (unless its a drag specific vehicle, etc).

The wheels I'm looking at are Enkei's, 18 x 8, 40mm offset. For this size of wheel, I don't think there are many other options, well atleast not that are lighter.

I go as far as even finding out the tire weight. I'll pay $$$ for a tire that weighs 1-2 lbs less than another. That is why I still use 215/45/17's wink
You WILL definately notice the difference. I went from a 19lb rim to a 15lb rim and notice it.

My slick setup is even lighter. 15" Rota subzeroes that weigh 12.9 lbs wrapped in MT slicks that weigh 17 lbs each. Total is 29.9 lbs per corner. I don't think it gets much better than that in a DSM.

I didn't even need to upgrade my street rim/tires setup as I have the slicks, but the benefits outweigh the costs IMO wink I'm all about a nice street setup as well as the track. Plus the RPF1's make me drool.

It might not be your taste but I think 18" RPF1's in matt black would look sick on your car tu

I go as far as even finding out the tire weight. I'll pay $$$ for a tire that weighs 1-2 lbs less than another. That is why I still use 215/45/17's wink

Good info, thanks tu

Defently noticed a difference with my DR setup for fwd, it was probably pretty close to your slick setup for weight. The Hoosier DR's weighed less then 19 lbs, not bad for a 225/50/16 tire, defently less then a reg steel belted radial.

I've seen some 2g's with the RPF1's & I'm not a huge fan. They look good if you just want that "race car" look but I prefer some other styles on the 2g. Also, their offset isn't as ideal as what I would be looking at, the PF01's in matt black.

On my old car 94 Golf with a G60 super charged when i raced auto cross I put 11 lb 15 inchers on it as apposed to your typical 17 after market wheels and the power being put down was remarkable able to break loose in 3rd gear as apposed to just barely in 2nd gear. once I changed up to better rubber couldnt break em loose but man did she pull then!!

Man, your car looks so badass wingless!

I'm sporting the wingless 2g look myself, more or less by accident. Picked up a high-rise Eclipse spoiler, took the 95 Talon thumbnail off and prepared to put the high-rise on. Decided I liked the wingless look better than any other look! That was sometime last year. It's been spoilerless ever since and I've no plans to change it.
Posted By: Ryan Craig

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 22, 2012 12:18 am UTC

I had plans to put the 1Gb spoiler on mine but decided against it and couldn't be happier with the final product.

The wingless look doesn't look too shabby on 1G's either IMO smile

Never paid enough attention to the manifold to notice, since at first glance they look quite similar. That and nearly every 2G I've seen in detail is running a 6-bolt swap and/or an aftermarket IM, if not a 1G IM. Remember, I'm not much older than some of these cars ('90 baby) - I wasn't playing around with them when they were 'new' like most of the guys here were!

Hugh? ITs been masked to the living death, just the exterior was cleared. All internals, and holes were masked and plugged. Powder is different than painting how? Not sure what you were reading. it says the tranny breathes thru the aluminum ?? lol


Also Jay, if you can take the time to mask some of the critical internal features, like races that wont come out, the shifter linkage, and maybe a few other obvious places, sand blasting does wonders for the stubburn corroted exterior. Sometimes cleaning it still leaves spots looking black ish.

The transmission does not breathe through pores in the aluminum casing. You read wrong, lol.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 19, 2012 04:19 pm UTC

Posted By: Michael Certain

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 19, 2012 05:17 pm UTC

I wonder if he was concerned about 'breathing' for temperatures. Generally there are parts of the car which can heat up under heavy use, and you may be concerned about the heat dissipation qualities of paint. Sure, BBQ paints (as well as others) work well for withstanding heat, but not necessarily for allowing heat to flow.

So he may have felt that under heavy abuse, the tranny/transfer case heated up, and was attempting to 'breathe' (cool) across its surface area, to which paint may only add a layer of insulation.

I read that painting it causes over heating.. I wanted to paint mine black, but I think im gonna sand blast it and spray clear coat on it. Maybe that iodizing clear coat from Canadian Tire .I took a wire wheel to the end case and it looks good, but I dont have the time to do the whole case.

I'd be interested to see how you routed the air up into that box. This is on my list of things to do this summer/winter if I ever get my other DSM on the road.
I had a couple of ideas utilizing the stock intercooler.

I'm really surprised with all that you'd done that you didn't relocate the fuse box. That would have been the icing on the cake, so to speak.

Still looks damn good though.

Are your -AN fittings on your valve cover welded in or threaded in?

I need to get the thing on the road. This winter I will focus on cosmetics such as wire tuck, black interior, and a paint job in the spring turning it into the GSX.

Im running out of time, Im already two months behind schedule, I had a major case of "while its apart I might as well ....."

And ya, I didnt weld my cover. Maybe next year.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 27, 2012 10:01 pm UTC

I didn't want an evo. If it is horsepower I am after, that is in the garage wink This was cheaper and had everything that I was after.

Even though this doesn't come in manual, I simply didn't want one anyways. The SST tranny is amazing, and very appealing to me. I guess you haven't read the Magnus review on them wink Nothing really breaks on the SST, it just wears out the clutches after 400WHP. There are many options for this right now. On a side note, most of these so called problems come from the "Tooners" who have no clue what they are doing and start modding the car without knowing how it affects the transmission. Similar to DSM's, a handful know what they are doing and go fast, the rest of them mod and don't know how to tune, car runs like sh!t, and the bad apples ultimately give a bad name to DSM's smile

Also, this platform is excellent, and very tuner friendly. 300-400 WHP in this will be plenty enough for my daily driving during winter and summer. I don't plan on going beyond simple mods, but we'll see how well that plays out smile

This car feels like the new era DSM to me, but 100 times better smile I don't even care about driving the white DSM since I got it, lol.

Hey Reza, did Magnus write a review on the sst specifically or are you speaking of "budget baby evo" ralliart etc. as a whole car review? I'd be quite interested in reading it if Marco did write something up about the transmission. I could not find anything when I searched.

I do recall Jack's opening one up and writing some of his findings on evo forum, which seemed quite informative.
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2012 02:51 pm UTC

Hey Charles, other than the below review for Modified, the rest of the reviews I have read are on NABR. I guess that doesn't help very much. He pretty much says that almost all SST tranny problems come from "tooners" who have no clue what they are doing. I'll take Marco's word over the rest of the folks on the Evo forums, someone who actually knows what he's doing smile

Is that price what it sold for in 2010? There's a dealer asking for $28,995 PLUS taxes for a 2010 with 14,xxx km's on it. I made him an offer on it based on reading that it sold for ~$27 grand almost 3 years ago, and he rejected it thinking I was out of my mind.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2012 05:56 pm UTC

$27k Canadian or US ? I think your getting the price mixed up with US pricing. Nonetheless you should be able to find used ones for cheaper. I saw a few used ones, but I wanted that new car smell with the premium package in white. I'm picky tongue
Posted By: Adam Grenon

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2012 07:27 pm UTC

I just priced one with the premium package. 0% financing right now, car cost canada price as well. Quoted at $36k and change. +tax
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2012 07:58 pm UTC

That sounds more like it, $31k is without the premium package. I sat in one with the cloth interior and I didn't really like it, seats felt pretty basic. I pretty much got the dealer to knock off a couple grand with the premium package in order to make a sale smile

New cars are not selling much in this market. Throw a reasonable price at them and negotiate.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 07, 2012 10:13 pm UTC

although circumstancially true, dealer mark up is different and shouldn't be confused from what a manufacturer can offer in terms of "deals"..

mitsu is down so there was probably advertised and unadvertised incentives which differ month to month..

Hey thanks. The opinion of my peers actually matters to me on this forum. Probably one of the only places I give a F*ck what people think of me smile Means a lot. thanks.

Theres so many things pictured you might not even tell are painfully modified and engineered to "fit" and "function". For example, The SPC upper control arms. Balljoints discontinued and anchors were garbage when I got them. I had to make/modify my own new anchors and modify random adjustable ball joints to be able to use them. One of a thousand things Ive done to this build that you cant just "bolt on"

PS, THANK YOU REZA for the RZA"d Transmission. Im really going to enjoy it smile

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 26, 2012 02:40 am UTC

That gap is there on purpose. Its going to have a shroud allowing air into the space between the rad and FMIC, then it will be cleaned up with rubber mold trim pieces along the edge of the bumber opening.

Just sealed the deal on a 2012 Ralliart in Octane Blue, pick it up Tuesday. Drive it for a day then park it until the 21st of September as I will be getting married and will also be in Costa Rica for our honeymoon.

Last 2012 Octane Blue ralliart in Ontario, and apparently the last year for this colour, according to the dealer.

My DSM has been neglected for quite some time now, but I haven't given up on it. I hope the new whip will inspire me to keep in the "game" if you want to call it that. My Hyundai Accent did little in that department, but was a reliable car none the less.

I'd be up for a ralliart meet, I am already looking into the future, past the warranty, dreaming of modifications haha.

The "new" DSM's, if you will, that people have been jumping on for years have been the late model Evo's. I see a lot of guys going from a DSM to an Evo VIII, IX, X, new Ralliart, etc.

It's been happening for years lol

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 31, 2012 06:20 pm UTC

EVO is an EVO.

This Ralliart is a bit different, it's not a full blown performance model.

^ That!

That is the transition i made. I went from my 99 Eclipse GST to the EVO X GSR. What a difference! I was actually looking for an Evo 9 but the price difference was nothing. I was looking for a 9 and they were running for about $20 (average). My X was only 3 k more with a Warranty and a few less years. I still prefer the 9 but I am happy with the choice

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 01, 2012 03:03 am UTC

Thanks Kent and Bryan. The valve cover was red so i went with it but i hated it with the blue. It it was white or black it would work. I am trying to paint the fuse panel under the hood the same color as the car but i don't think it will turn out. The plastic does not absorb the paint the same as the metals frown

SOB, now i will have to wrap it or something.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 01, 2012 03:12 am UTC

There are paints for plastic, just try to find a near match, in a gloss. Shouldn't be that hard to find.

That I'm not sure, haven't really compared. Those blankets are specific to the FP exhaust mani & FP series turbine housings.

Yes, still have AC. Temps run ~200 range (abit hotter or colder depending on weather). Probably close to what it was stock but my FMIC core isn't the best for airflow through the core.

I went to probably 5 shows, skipped out on a couple because they had stupid expensive entrance fees($35+) for a chance and winning a $10 trophy.

My buddy hasn't won a single trophy actually, and he's usually the only real evo. Body kitted lacers with zero performance mods take it all the time. I told him to sell his parts and put a body kit on his Evo tongue

Nothing new here, my Sonata has been chilling for about 3 years now, off the road collecting dust.Needs some work which i haven't had time or money for.

So I picked up a GSX hatch......(sorry Johnny, I snagged it from under your nose laugh )

Thoughts.........paint it all black, and have this red black theme going on the GSX like the Talon did. Carbon hood > Black roof> Black hatch> carbon spoiler ?

Or do I paint the roof and hatch red and use the carbon spoiler.
Posted By: Jeremy Gilbert

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 17, 2012 12:11 am UTC

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of mixing black and carbon like that... but I think you need something on the tail end to match the carbon.

Either way they look sexy as hell!

A carbon hatch is definitely DIRT, but its going to have to wait until next season. In the immediate future, I have a GSX hatch ready to be painted, and Im trying to figure out if I should paint it and the roof red, or leave the roof black, and hatch goes black.

Im LEANING towards black roof, black hatch.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 17, 2012 12:45 am UTC

OUCH! Rob you sob.... lol

Well, if you were going multi-coloured, then keep the roof (including the top portion of the hatch) black and then the remainder red.

On that note, if you find another one in descent condition , or you find your carbon one, let me know. That rust on mine will only get worse frown

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 17, 2012 12:46 am UTC

You can HAVE my Talon Hatch for being such a good sport wink Its literally MINT.

But On that note, if you feel I should KEEP the coulour scheme of my current hatch, and I should JUST fill the holes and repaint AS IS

Maybe I'll sell you my GSX hatch smile (I need to keep the third brake light setup though)
Posted By: Johnny Larmond

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 17, 2012 12:48 am UTC

How are the holes from the talon spoiler? I'll be painting it anyhow so I can get those holes filled. As long as the window is in good shape and there isn't any rust, I'm sure we can work something out smile

We'll chat Tuesday. Also, I have an additional 3rd brake light setup you can have. The covering is tan though.

Nextmod sells that stuff. My friend used it on the interior of his car. Very easy to work with, and very sticky.
I would pull the drip panels off and even pull the sunroof to install it properly. Last thing you want is it to peel going down the highway :S

I was expecting the same when I went to pick up the car, but the dealer already put the plates on. Either way doesn't really bother me. I don't think I could justify drilling holes in the white bumper now just to move it to the side smile
I was actually thinking of getting the 3M vinyl on the front of the car to prevent rock chips etc..

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 19, 2012 02:59 pm UTC

That seems pretty common, I agree its looks nice too. I met a guy at timmies near 401/Kennedy with it done, he also painted the bottom lip black. I'll pass though, the chrome looks fine to me and so does the bottom lip smile

Right now, I'm all about keeping the car the way it came from the dealer. Just having the car and driving it is a pleasure to me smile There is also a "GST" tune floating around which claims a bump up of 50WHP and 30ft/lbs of torque, without any other mods, but since this car is my daily driver, I'm not quite worried about the mods right now smile

Once warranty is up, I'll probably try the GST reflash. Just a quick little grocery getter is all I want wink

Funny, my DSM has been neglected ever since I bought the Ralliart. Neglected enough that the battery was dead when I decided to take it for a spin shuffle
That is the first time that has happened to me during the summer.

I took it for a blast this past weekend, and what a rocket it felt like!

Joe, the DSM has always been tinted. Rims are 17x8 +35 Enkei RPF1's. They weigh about 15lbs each.
Posted By: EK

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 02:02 am UTC

I wouldn't call them "mods" so to speak. lol. I have the Rally Armor urethane mudflaps on all 4 corners (which i HIGHLY recommend as you'll notice that your rear bumper is raped by stones and dirt), tinted windows, weathertek floor mats. I have the Evo X SSS wing. Wheels are RTX Apollo 2 18x8 IIRC from Fai Lee. As far as engine mods and stuff go, I am bone stock. I HAVE a tactrix 2.0 cable w/ evoscan and ecu flash. I might have been modded once, popped a tranny, went back to stock and never modded again. But that's just a possibility wink wouldn't ever do anything to void my warranty lol.

Edit: I have heard that the tactrix is on backorder, so if you need one you can feel free to borrow mine. Though, I am quite a drive away.
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 03:27 am UTC

Posted By: EK

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 12:34 pm UTC

FAST key is when you dont need to put the key in the ignition, they stay in your pocket and when you approach your car it unlocks for you, and there is a FOB in the ignition that you use to turn the engine on. They keys stay in your pocket. In a nutshell, anyway.
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 12:56 pm UTC

Got you, my dad's car has the fob thing, but it's just push button start.
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 02:15 pm UTC

The FAST key system is excellent. I never have to pull my keys out of my bag or pocket for getting into the car or starting it.
Other features like the Bluetooth 2.0 and auto rain sensing wipers are pretty cool. I never knew how handy these things were until I started using them. Definately takes the driving experience to a different level.

The AWD system is top notch with ASC, front, center and rear LSD's. One thing I found fascinating is if you hit the e-brake while driving, it will automatically unlock the rear diff so you can lock the rear wheels while power still goes to the front. That's some cool sh!t. Now that's Ralliart! This makes a stock DSM AWD system with only one rear LSD look very primitive smile
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 02:29 pm UTC

I think bluetooth is cool but in my car I can't hear people so it's not really something I would want. Raining sensing wipers are great, I did enjoy those on my dad's mazda when he had it.

That's fancy stuff!

Loved keyless operation of a car, when I worked for Toyota that was my fav feature in my demo. By the time the back side hit the seat it was on its way to starting.
I hate wipers in general so I avoid using them all together until its nessasary
Posted By: Ziggy Dietrich

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 03:18 pm UTC

Bah, keyless operation is OLD news. My first cars, all of them worked without keys. You only needed the key to lock or unlock the doors, trunk, and ignition, but if you didn't LOCK the ignition, you could just start it with no key. And in those, days, NO-ONE bothered to lock their cars. Hell, my uncles used to leave their wallets in their cars....
Hell, my FIRST car, I never even GOT a key with it...

I once left the keys to my Evo hanging out of my garage door (car was already running) and drove 20 minutes to my parents place, shut the car off and got out. It was only when I was ready to go home that I realized what I had done and had to take their car back to my place to retrieve my keys so I could start it again to drive home! smile

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 07:43 pm UTC

I was always wondering about that(smart key) I figured the car would give warning and then cut power. But I guess that could be dangerous as well.
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - September 20, 2012 08:52 pm UTC

My car does give warnings on the dash and beeps like a mofo if the keys are out of the car. You gotta be pretty drunk to not notice, at which point its probably good that you don't have the keys wink

You don't want it to just cut out on you either, as that could happen if the battery in the key fob dies. In the manual it says the batteries last upto 3 years at which point if they are not dead, you should change anyways for good measure.

I don't think the vehicle would ever just cut out if the batteries died in the remote. It would cause a no start but you can start them and leave the keys in your toolbox and drive for hours without them they just won't restart.

I can promise you I will never buy a Mazdaspeed 6. For the same price I could get a nice WRX.

On the way down to Dynotech I made a few pulls to just make sure everything felt good, well all of a sudden it started running pig rich and a bunch of knock, so I did some quick adjustments in link and dropped my boost to reduce the knock and make the pulls.

Well I found out I split my fmic, so major boost leak, and boost down around 22psi netted 273/289 @ 10.1 afr.

Disappointing to say the least, but she drove home and it's an easy fix. Typical dsm luck, runs like a top till show time. I'll get her fixed up and back on the dyno.

Im rather proud of my Over flow bottle. I found it on the Toronto Subaru Club forums. Its part of an inter-cooler kit. Pretty neat that Subaru Aftermarket thinks of the fact you need to relocate your reservoir when you convert to a front mount. Something Ive never seen in any DSM kit.

Anyways I found the bottle for sale, gave it some love, and mounted it and voila. Overflow bottle issue solved!

Turns out my FMIC wasn't my only problem last week on the dyno day, I fixed it and it was still getting a misfire and knock anytime in boost. Compression test showed 120-150-120-130, also started blowing oil out all around the valve cover and the dipstick.

So today I yanked it out, will drop in my spare block tomorrow.

If my memory is correct, it is 2 1/2".

Ignore the nasty looking throttle body for now, I have another one ready to coat and rebuild, just haven't got to it yet. I'm debating if I should do it in black chrome like the piping/intake mani or maybe matte black.

I also have another CAS that will look a little better smile

And Tools lol tongue

I am in the same boat as Michael... I hope one day I can just drop the engine over the weekend. When I changed the lower control arm it took me I'd say about 6 hours... because I didn't have the proper tool to remove the ball joint. And when I installed the hi flow cat it took 8 hours over two days, 4 each day. Simply because I had to deal with the rusted bolts and I can only get the car so high off the ground. And just my luck it rained on the 2nd day so I was dripping wet on the floor and I got a cold sick

If it were up to me I would do everything on my own and immediately, unfortunately I don't have the resources right now

I can drop a trans all by myself in about 2 hours if not less without cutting corners, from having the car running to tranny on the floor. Once you do it so much it becomes super easy.

One thing I've found with 2g's, because of the mounts being on the tranny instead of the motor, it's just as fast to remove the whole thing on one piece. I'm down to about 2 1/2 hours to have it hanging by 2 bolts, and it's only a matter of minutes to lift it out with the overhead crane I installed this summer laugh
Posted By: Reza Mirza

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 12, 2012 01:43 pm UTC

I could get home after work and yank the whole motor and tranny out, take off all the manifolds and turbo and disassemble the whole motor and tranny before 12am wink It's not fun though unless you have some real dedication. I don't think I would do that now though, simply because I don't need to.

Quickest I dropped the tranny was in 45 minutes. Clutch fork broke on the way home from work on a Friday afternoon long weekend and that was my only ride to go camping that evening. Started at 5pm in the evening and I was at Algonquin park in my DSM by 10:30pm that same night smile

So do I. In fact, I called them the other night when my exhaust blew off in the middle of bum-frack nowhere with tools but no jack/blocks etc. at 11:30pm in the freezing cold + rain + hail. Wait was supposed to be well over an hour...ended up driving the car onto an embankment..threw on a couple layers of clothes + coveralls I always keep in the car...crawled under and went to work...wasn't too bad, except cleaning out all the mud/sand/grass packed into the 3" exhaust from driving onto the embankment. Finished it all in about 30 minutes or so of work...CAA was still 45+ mins away.

Stuff that I can reasonably and safely fix without risking further damage to the car I will do. If it's something like a major oil leak/hg/etc...I would normally get a tow and call it a day.

Originally Posted by Pedro Suarez

No...but a full socket set, a few wrench sets, a large variety of hand-tools and all the fluids the car could need.

Generally no spare parts, though, except maybe electrical connectors (spades, crimps, etc.) that are small enough and light enough to keep a few of in the car.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 12, 2012 06:39 pm UTC

I carry a small bag with 10, 12, 14mm sockets and wrenches, a flat screw driver, pair of vise grips and a flash light, can fix pretty much anything on a DSM with that kit.

I wasn't sure if my alternator was going bad or not so I used to keep a spare in the trunk.

For everything else, there is CAA tongue My buddy, who owns a dsm also, is actually the local CAA tow truck driver.

Lets see here... I carry every tool required to tear that poor car down to nothing but scrap! The tool bag never leaves the trunk and doubles as my wrecker ammunition wink
That along with at least 1qt of oil, spare ign coil and wires, coolant, grease, brake fluid, spare fuses and relays, jumpers, hurc straps, and 10L of gas. Usually filled with additional tools I need for work on the car during night shifts. Currently my electrical tool box, drill set, and a sh!t ton of audio wiring.

But no spare tire. I blow a tire and I call CAA.

I think my record time for an engine pull was just shy of 2 hours.

Winter swaps take a longggg time unless you've got a nice heated and insulated garage. Freezing cold + metal car/engine/etc. + metal tools + bare hands = a shitty time. Ask me how I know...

Not as easy as that when the garage you're working in is very large and uninsulated and it's -20C outside (without windchill)...especially when the 'propane heater' is actually a tiny little electrical one tongue

I've gotta speak to my landlord and see if I can use the garage for the winter. It's small, but should fit my beach pretty well.

I'll offer to clean it up I guess and add something to the floor as a layer so I don't get oil everywhere.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 15, 2012 03:52 pm UTC

The car had been painted 4 times prior to me buying it. We completely stripped it down and painted it again. Strut towers were repaired badly and it was too much work for me to tackle. It was lots of little things that would have added up. I think the guy who I sold it to, sold it to someone on this board. Hope it went to a good home.

Gimme a break lol. Ive literally stripped the car to a shell and put it back to this point since last Halloween. lol.

Its just a pic showing the first time its seen a battery in a year smile Im still miles away from being finished. I think im putting the whole project on hold for a month or two and taking the time to concentrate on other things Ive been neglecting in life for a while.

PS, The HID's came with the car. Id like to some time figure out a way to focus all that scattered light rather than ditch the HID lamps or switch to a projector head lamp assmebly. I think the options for 2gb eclipse projectors is all ugly.

PSS, I was actually more concerned with trying to get my ECU to connect to Link, with no avail. So I decided not to get mad and take a pic of the head lights on lol. laugh

You can fab up some glare shields if you want for the time being, so at least the light doesn't shoot up to the sky and get wasted.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 23, 2012 11:34 pm UTC

Glare shields don't work all that great.
A halogen bulb and HID capsule project the light differently.

Those are the ballasts. They attach directly to the headlight housing in the cars these go on, rather how most aftermarket kits work where you mount the ballast separately. Makes it one nice, big, sealed and contained unit!
Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 15, 2012 10:56 am UTC

im thinking the balast will mount to one of the rear curcular openeings in the eclipse headlamp.. and ill customize the other cover plate to hold the projector. the projector it self has the high bead low beam plate so i wont need my second headlight bulbs excep for daytime lights.

i dont know which lamp they came from.. they were rework lamps. humdreds of them.. all scrapped cause we make our own now at work.

and ya the pump is upside down.

the high pressure line is easy.. all i did was remove all the hard line and thread the flex hose that bolts tto the pump right to the hard line off the rack. ithink hes worried about the line that runs infront of the rad for cooling. i jus didnt bother with cooling. ive ran many cars without it includiny my last talon and had no probs.

I was actually considering doing mine, but I've only tore apart one other alternator(Dodge Neon) before and it didn't go so well. How was it putting it back together?

I actually bought the new bearings 2 years ago but just couldn't bring myself to take it apart tongue
Posted By: Rob Cauduro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 16, 2012 04:30 am UTC

taking it apart was much harder. I had to DE-solder some stuff, specifically the stater, just to get at screws, which ended up being drilled out.

The plastic inside was really REALLY brittle as well. I had to glue it all back together. I may pick up another junk alternator just for the plastic parts inside now that I know how to take one apart without breaking all those fragile parts.


Assembly is a cinch once you take it apart successfully. I ended up tapping a few of the M5 holes to M6, because I had to drill the hardware out internally, and didn't have spare hardware to use that was M5.....I have plenty of M6 hardware though.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 16, 2012 04:43 am UTC

Awesome, thanks for the info. That was pretty much my issue with the Neon alternator, I broke the stater.

I have a dead one to practice on at least, if it goes wrong, I'll slap it back together and return it as a core tongue
Posted By: Rob Cauduro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 16, 2012 05:05 am UTC

On the back side, opposite the pulley, there are thru holes, threaded M5, which hold the internals to the chassis of the alt. Soak them with WD, for days......Might save you having to drill those four bolts out. Wishing I had more patience when doing it.
Posted By: Pedro Suarez

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 16, 2012 05:09 am UTC

It's relative. I'm sure we've all seen really nice parts before. However to see such love and care into a piece that adds no real performance or appeal... or will even really been seen at all for that matter is what makes it so beautiful. It's the minor details that separate cars wink
Posted By: Rob Cauduro

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 16, 2012 05:36 am UTC

To be honest, the ONLY reason I coated it, was because it was BLACK and corroded, and i was hard pressed to put something dirty in the bay I worked so hard to pretty up. The wire wheel wouldn't even clean it, and it had a rattle. So I attempted a rebuild, with a pretty good result wink

That and I have so much other costs to still consider, I in a sense, cheeped out instead of buying a new one tongue

So we naming this the "Rob mod" on an alternator? M5 - M6 conversion? lol

In all honesty the alternator looks much better in person, since it is matte black.

If it wasn't that difficult maybe I should pick up a spare alternator and give it a try.

Not much patience lately though.

Took me 1 year to install a replacement power supply in my computer. Why? Didn't want to spend time with cable management. I'm anal about my cables in my tower.

I once threw a rod in my '82 trans am. frown I had new tires installed at my fathers friends garage, they did an oil change. I drovew it not even 10 kms and the plug came out..sooo, out went a rod through the pan. Pulled off the highway I was on and oil was everywhere. frown

The garage took responsibility and replaced the 350ci. With another used one tu

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 21, 2012 09:33 pm UTC

To go that suddenly, I think it is usually a case of having lost the oil. I have seen engines run with knocking rods for a LONG time if they are still getting oil...

The stock Evo wheel is 17" x 8", 35mm offset, 5x114.3 mm bolt circle, 67mm centerbore.

They provide adequate clearance on a Brembo brake upgrade which is nice . smile

I would say that is probably the best size and offset for any DSM. 35mm seems to look and fit the best, same as my RPF1's. They look nice on a 2g, similar to Rob C's car.
Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 23, 2013 02:16 pm UTC

I had 35's and a 225, I honestly think the +35 sticks out too much in the front. The front fenders were not flush with the 18" racing hart c3 evo's I used to own.

Also, it required rear quarter rolling. Which is a must if upgrading the width anyway.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 23, 2013 03:38 pm UTC

I'm running 235 for now, with the +35 I have room for 245, which I'll probably do when I need some new tires. Right now the tires are pretty much perfectly flush with the fenders. Rears are rolled, and I'll probably do the fronts at some point.

The Evo's are popular, but not nearly like the RPF1's, those are everywhere in the states.

Its not specifically the offset that you have to worry about, its also spoke design itself.

Typically +40mm is the ideal offset for a 2g rim. This will basically center the wheel to achieve the most clearance.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 23, 2013 06:49 pm UTC

I've read that many times from this link;

http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/fre.../286685-will-these-wheels-tires-fit.html

VERY helpful spreadsheet although, I wouldn't say it's overall diameter percentile is accurate. If compared to a tire/rim calculator.

Not that I want to join the ranks of "sheeple", but the Brembo setup appeals to me. And I guess I'll have to cross that bridge (fitment) when I get there.

Just read a msg from a MOD on tuners, apparently those stock Evo rims are a +38mm O/S. Which makes sense, seeing as you're flush with the sidewall of your tire, and not the rim.

I would say a year Quebec insurance is cheap, But you pay alot more for your registration renewal. It was over 200 back in the 90's. I had 3 cars and a motorcycle insured for just over $600 a YEAR full coverage.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2013 06:14 pm UTC

Yup 125 a year, mind you plates are 260$ a year, but I only have it plated for half the year so owning my talon costs me about 250$ a year.

Mind you, plates for my bike are another 600$ plus 550$ for full coverage.

My jeep costs me about 500$ for full coverage as well. Plates for it are about 260 as well. Thankfully it falls into the smaller engine category. Engines over 4.0L are dinged per 0.1L over by something like 10$.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2013 06:21 pm UTC

$400 a year for full coverage on my 2g, that's with an accident on my record back in 2000. I have 3 vehicles on my policy, totaling around $1000 annually.

The extra charge for the plates based on displacement is a bitch, that's why I sold my 99 Dakota 5.2L and bought a 94 Ram Cummins diesel, it is exempt from the extra charge and gets far better fuel mileage.

But your not really comparing apples to apples. There are many differences between Quebec and Ontario insurance. You Million dollar Liablity is covered by the Government not the insurance company.

Don't forgot $22 cases of beers. And thats the good stuff.
Posted By: Johnny Larmond

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 31, 2013 12:25 am UTC

You are most likely correct. I'm only looking at it from face value.
The alcohol price in Ontario angers me on a whole new level. Having ventured down south quite a few times in the very recent past, their $22.99 60oz Sailor Jerry's makes me fume at the tax up here. I know it goes places, but frack... Some nights I want to get drunk for less then $40.

I do have to agree, although getting me drunk takes about two to three beers, mainly because I rarely have more than one in a sitting.

Not quite sure how long it stays in the records here, but I didn't even claim it, I was driving my parents pickup and they claimed it on their own insurance, and 4 or 5 years later when I switched insurance companies they asked if I had ever made a claim, to which I said no, as technically I never did make a claim, well they denied me instantly for giving false info and reference the pickup accident.

Honestly, the only thing the SQ care about is where they can get an easy ticket such as for an exhaust. When I got my ticket 2 years ago, the photos the officer took for evidence clearly showed my rear tires were bald, not a thing was said about that by him or in court.

Its not that bad really. I've never bottomed out. The roads to my house are not the greatest by any means either. The 245/45r17 tires raise my car a bit so its not as low as on oem tire size.

Once getting on a flat bed it did skim the ground but I noticed before any damage was done and readjusted the 2x4s.

An sti tried playing with me once but once he saw the shiny thing in the back he said it probably wasn't even worth my time.

For me it's the other way around. The Talons or Eclipses in 1g form never sparked my interest but when I came across the Laser I finally had the 1g bug. Whatever floats your boat, puts a big grin on your face and all that wink Pretty sure the Laser would look amazing with a widebody like the German 1g I showed a little while back.

Way back in the day my friends mom got a brand new FWD turbo laser, that is the day I fell in love with DSM's. She traded in her 5.0 mustang convertable for it, mustang never did it for me, but that laser was sweet. Sitting in the back, nice tight fitting seats, first time I felt boost...good day, good times.

Perfect, that's what I want to hear (well not the hitting animals part). I was indeed going to remove them at night. tu Just want to cover my set of clear 1gb headlights during the day from rocks and whatnot.

These are why I want to protect them:

You can get lamin-x or 3m film, in different clear or tints as well. Buy a roll then cut to fit.
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 24, 2013 03:19 am UTC

Yeah but it won't do as good a job as a hard plastic cover. Plus the legality of anything over the headlight is the same, so figured I may as well go with the thicker plastic. Specially since it's only for the day. Also protects it from yellowing and hazing from the sun as an added bonus.

Good plan. Rocks sleep at night time, and are predominantly flying into cars headlights throughout the day.

The one advantage of the North American Wild Rock is it's shape. Rounded and blunt making it aerodynamic through the air as it flies into your headlight.
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 24, 2013 02:56 pm UTC

Actually, without all the sarcasm, it's true. Most rocks and debris comes from freight trucks which are more predominant during the day. Not to mention all the guys that haul stuff personally (usually not having it covered correctly hence leading to small things coming out at highway speeds) are also during the day. You'll get the occasional car flinging one but it's mostly the trucks. You can disagree if you want, I go by experience. Besides I know the covers aren't usable during the night and don't feel like endangering anyone by using them, that's just plain ol' dumb.

Well who truly appreciates them the most? dsm guys. Everyday people couldn't give a hoot on the fact they are clear. I'd rather keep them pristine for local meets, dsm road trips and whatnot. Considering the abuse my 2g ones took in Brampton before, I don't want a repeat with these gems (specially since I work construction and this car will take me to and from those construction sites). On another note, they truly come to fruition when the headlights are on, which is at night. During that time, the covers are off and flaunting the crispiness and look of the headlight in all its glory. laugh

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 24, 2013 06:29 pm UTC

Yeah I loved mine at night too. The light is worlds better than the stockers with the stupid patterns on them. Or so I noticed anyways. I'm glad I kept mine. Who knows how much they'll be worth in the future when I get another 1Gb

I had to remove the headlight to get to the clamp so I can take off my upper intercooler pipe. Scot welded me a new BOV flange so I can run my Blitz instead of the crappy TurboXS that was on there before.

The flange is actually a 1G BOV flange, re-drilled and trimmed. So even my Hyundai has DSM bits in it.

Oh which oh which bumper shall I put, Talon 2gb...Evo body kit....stock 2gb Eclipse?

[Linked Image]

Well it'll be 2gb Eclipse for now tongue

Finally got the chance to put the radiator shroud back in (I use a big SMIC, no need to take it out, but never had it to begin with). Install the crashbar back on there and clean up the front. Long day, but productive laugh

Yes I know the hood doesn't look straight, it's because it's resting on the hood prop. With the new radiator it doesn't fit in it's stock position so I'll have to invent a new one down the road along with a couple more diddles tongue

Oh and Bryan, I put it in the back for now, the 2gb eclipse bumper I got with the car when I bought it so it's the same color (had forgotten about that fact) so no painting required. This way I can go to the paint booth with the Talon and repair the evo fiberglass one in the meantime.

I was always worried about that, people scoping out nice cars and punching in their plates to get their information, even going as far as getting their VIN on the dash and going to MTO to get a used buyers package. Anyway, I only plan on going once or twice this year, it was nice to have the change of scenery.

Also. for all you 2g guys with the vrsf, you cannot use the oem foglights... they will not fit. I got a set of aftermarket foglights from my buddies Honda civic that he had laying around. I will get back with install pictures it isn't the ideal way I wanted to install them but I was anxious and will redo it when I have the time.

Yes it's a 6 speed sport combi turbo x, one of only around 30 in north america. It's vtuned, 320hp and about 450tq. I use HP tuners to log it and apply tunes.
I plan to upgrade to a 19t turbo, larger injectors, which should give me over 400hp. I'll probably stop there, the xwd system is a little fragile.

It's ok, it's actually pretty slow off the line, and it's a heavy beast. The engine is a GM 2.8l v6, originally developed in Australia. It's a variant of the v6 used in Cadillacs.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 09, 2013 01:06 pm UTC

Well I finally got my 16G beast back together and decided it was time to hit the track and see how it worked. Have been driving it around at 22psi on a conservative tune and it feels great.

So a few friends and I load up and head to Sparta for some Friday night test and tune. First pass was a no launch full pull just to see how the air fuels were. Ended up going 13.7 ish at 116mph. Around 26 psi. So I decided it was launch time. Everytime I launched hard the clutch would slip in 2-3-4 gear. Turned down the boost to 20 psi and that fixed the problem.

That boost got me to a 12.73 at 110.66 mph. I'll post up a time slip and some videos.

An exedy stage 2. 3 puck ceramic sprung hub with a beefed up pressure plate, drives nice. Works great on the street, just not so much after hard launches. It has held at 28psi so I guess the heat from the launch is too much

Well the left side (looking at the car) would be blocked off as it's a seperate piece. I am also pretty sure that the right side is already blocked off too so the light doesn't bleed through as the what's left on the right is the turn signal.

My engine is pretty much ready to drop in, just need to try and remove one broken bolt (for the driver side inner axle carrier bearing) and then bolt on the pp/clutch/flywheel and she's done.

Awaiting tranny rebuild parts currently, so in the meantime I'm going to do some wiring and just clean things up.

The car was 99% stock when I got it, but that 1% was a hackjob, so fixing that...thankfully it was mainly just some wiring that needs repairing.

Clutch/tranny issues.

Decided since the tranny was coming out anyways to take it all out in one go.

Engine is all cleaned up with lots of new gaskets and fresh seals and plenty of shiny new bolts. (I am/was REALLY tired of leaks and all the grime from all the leaks and melted alternator belts, etc.)

Engine bay is currently being cleaned and may get a VERY minor wire tuck of sorts, if I feel adventurous.

New clutch/pp/flywheel and a 'new' clutch pedal assembly with a modified brake pedal.

Spare tranny is being rebuilt.

Oil pressure gauge is being wired in and I've now switched to an external oil cooler.

The list is long...but as long as she's ready for the Shootout I don't care. smile

As I'm sure you know full well, the brake pedal on our cars are pretty tiny which in itself isn't an issue, but between the tiny pedal and the large space between the gas and brake pedals, it makes heel-toe very sketchy and difficult to do consistently.

So...I'm welding an extension on to the right side of the brake pedal so that it closes up that gap a little bit. Probably 1-1.5" wider. Then I'll clean it up and coat it with that bed liner/rock guard stuff to have it be nice and grippy.

Nice sounds good, are you going to drop the brake down at all, the height difference is what I seem to have issues with.

Nope, as you'll really only need heel-toe under harder braking (if you're doing light braking then chances are you aren't planning on downshifting) and therefore that 'gap' will be mostly gone, not that would matter anyways. Just angle your foot more. I've never never had issues with heel-toe caused by the 'fore/aft' gap, just the spacing between the pedals side-to-side.
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 22, 2013 02:44 pm UTC

That's a good point, I usually am goofing around when I am heel toeing so I am not really braking that hard.

True, it just takes patience. Also, I did mine without any soldering(other than extending the feed lines to the fuse box), I simply bundled and tucked excess wiring, less chance of electrical issues than from spliced wiring, even soldered joints sometimes crack. I'm not sure it's 100% relevant with the dsm ecu, but on some of the industrial equipment I worked on, the wiring length was taken into consideration on the signal from certain sensors, so changing lengths effected the signal of some circuits by changing the resistance.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 22, 2013 03:52 pm UTC

Keep in mind, it would only be within the engine bay as I am NOT pulling out my dash at this time.

While I would like to do a complete tuck/rewire/custom harnesses a la Anthony Hiscock, it won't be done right now, as I've got a Shootout to get to and race at!

$260 springs vs. $3000 coilovers was an easy decision for me to make.

They're stickers smile and yep! Just installed them. Who would've thought it's a direct bolt on. It's an Evo I-III brake setup... the caliper is the same as a 2G AWD, and it uses an 11" rotor like a DSM. However it's 4x114.3 just like my Hyundai, and also shares the same center bore. Hell I even used 2G stainless flex lines.

Not a single mod required either. Out with the old, in with the new! They work great on a 2600lb car.

Me too! Not too many people push the engine fully stock. I plan to. The few that have, managed to put down some good numbers.

And apparently you can, although I haven't seen anybody successfully start and finish it. The Tucson is built on the same platform as the Elantra, and it's also offered with the Beta II engine I have and AWD. The 5 speed out of that is confirmed to fit the Elantra, but like I said nobody went much further than that. The Evo 4-9 engine/trans has also been swapped into this chassis too. Apparently all but 1 mount lines up. I'm sure with the right knowledge, skills and money somebody can swap a rear end into the car to make it all work. I'm not going to try though.

I do photography/graphic design for a day job, so it's kind of entrenched into my mind not to let any half assed work with my name attached to it out there in the open. I probably spend an unhealthy amount of time on getting the correct shot than I should lol.

I was under the impression that before this new plate, only the wind turbine and confed bridge we supposed to be in use. The other ones were supposed to be traded in for a new one, same as what is happening now. And some people just didnt trade and nothing got inforced.

Maybe I was just misinformed in the past. I'll have to do a bit of digging around before I renew mine.

The latest. I Bought a bunch of tools finally that I previously had no money for. Im also in the middle of some big personal changes with a new job at the grey bruce hospital part time in owen sound. I dont miss low wage factory BS one bit! Just about have the gas tank and remaining drivetrain/rear subframe out and that will be the end of the tear down phase leaving only the bare chassis.

Hopefully next spring I know where I stand with my new job. If I can turn full time or get enough part time hours, things should start moving along. However, I am feeling the need for a bigger garage, and a chassis rotisserie more and more.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - October 23, 2013 01:20 am UTC

I dont plan on going this far ever again, Some rust needs immediate attention + stitch weld and chassis stiffening/rollbar/cage + weight reduction.
Once the Chassis is done I ll do what money allows and throw it back together.

I ll have to make the time to come back to hamilton as often as possible when things settle down. But the truth of the matter is moving out and finishing school financially kicked my ass. I need finances in order and debt paid off in order to do anything. I have been truly blessed with this job offer. Caught me by total surprise. I ll settle my debts over the winter and see where Im at this spring. Hell though, places can be much cheaper up here! Just would like to have the car in one piece when it needs moved out!

This will always be my first car, My baby, full of old time memories! Being off Daily Driver status was the best thing I ever did for it. Just hope I can immortalize the chassis now, and keep it till death does one of us part.

Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 12, 2013 06:32 am UTC

Thanks guys!

93 AWD. 228k. All stock minus a 2.5" stainless exhaust, and hard upper/lower IC piping. Mint interior, mint leather wrapped steering wheel, no sag in the headliner. Has fog lights, a/c, cruise, ABS, all that crap. LSD rear end, factory EPROM ECU. Factory big brakes.

Body is okay. Hood is rotted cuz it had a bra. Passenger fender is pretty clean, driver side has a small hole. Otherwise no rust in the back by the bumper. Rockers seem nice from what I can see. Door jambs clean. Hatch is clean. Bottom of doors very, very minimal rust. Underneath is a bit crunchy, but should be salvagable.

Tranny is said to be toast, same with the engine. It's currently siezed, however it should run. But it has a loud tick. I know the owner that's owned it before me since 2002. It was parked in 2007 due to the noise, hasn't ran since. Engine was rebuilt in the late 90's and it's apparently bored .020 over but who knows.

Still have original bill of sale/owners manual though. Looks like it's fully loaded minus leather and sunroof, cost $26,500. Build date Nov 1992.

And it was free. Towed it home for free.

Actually there's change in it, so I got paid to own it smile

Posted By: Paul Bratina

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 12, 2013 04:40 am UTC

I'll tell you a little story. Two summers ago I went down to Street Tuned Motorsports in Rochester the week before the shootout. They had a bunch of DSMs in their shop and parking lot. On a trailer (just back from the paint shop I'm guessing) sat a freshly painted black 2g. It was all black, had some nice rims (though I forget the style now) and was wingless. I believe it's one of their employees cars or else one of the locals. As it happened I was planning on getting my 2g painted black the following spring (which I did). Also, I had previously purchased an Eclipse high-rise spoiler with plans to run that. When I took my stock 95 thumbnail spoiler off and placed my high-riser on the back to check the look, then removed it to check the look, I was immediately struck with how much better it looked wingless. Then, of course, I remembered the STM wingless black 2g and that sealed it for me. Course, it's just personal preference, but there are a fair number of wingless 2g's out there.
Posted By: Salomon Ponte

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 12, 2013 05:32 am UTC

I think black 2Gs look sexy wingless...the rest, keep a wing on 'em, unless you get the CF hatch with the CSL lip, which is sexy as hell.

This guy adjusted his and the fitment is good afterwards, it's brutal that you have to make these adjustments but it's at least an option.

Is there a brand name option for CSL?
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 12, 2013 03:45 pm UTC

Well the other option is to get a brand name hatch and make the spoiler separately or make the BMW one custom fit on yours. I've heard too many bad reviews for different reasons from that guy selling the hatches Jason showed that I'd never bother ordering anything from him. He uses sub-par resin that shrinks later. That and he's not too good in getting perfect surface finish (many guys had thumbprints in the resin or defects in the finish)

It still bows up over the 1/4 panels. Sergio actually PM'd me on facebook after I called out the quality and says they've made a new mold and the new hatches coming in January will be better. I'd have to see some results before I'd buy it.

Thats the hood i'm getting. Need vents for road racing so i'm taking the chance. I'm not going to be super critical on fitment. I'm keeping the expectations low.

This guy adjusted his and the fitment is good afterwards, it's brutal that you have to make these adjustments but it's at least an option.

Is there a brand name option for CSL?


Nope not many of these in existence. Im still scared to bolt mine on, but I m planning on making it work!! They were pretty cheap actually, I paid under 500 and picked mine up in niagara.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 18, 2013 11:50 pm UTC

Close to 500 is not cheap. It may seem so, but ask any of your non-car friends tongue
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 18, 2013 11:51 pm UTC

Your car friend right here is telling you $500 isn't cheap, I realize that most name brand ones go for more but 600+ but still.

A little less brown (rust)and black, and more silver (bare metal/primer). Felt damn good! Removing seam seal, and surface rust to visualize the seams is showing parts of the body to still be in great shape. been messing with camera settings,will need to try again for the next batch, hope to be home more often soon!! Being away is taking its toll on me. Getting this car done needs to become a priority, even if it means compromising lap times and revisiting things later.

Good man. But I brought it to the dealer to get the master cylinder done (recall service) and it fucked up the "heavy-ness" feeling, as well as the grabbing point. They said there's nothing they can do now, because it's an aftermarket clutch in there. They also are not warrantying any of the work, because of the above.

Not. Happy.

Took about a week of driving to feel comfortable with the pedal again. So it's not as bad.. but yeah. What can you do right? That's what happens when you deal directly with the dealer (no offence to Acura)
Posted By: Stephen Richardson

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 25, 2013 04:39 am UTC

Sounds more like they fucked up and don't know how to adjust it. I haven't yet seen a vehicle that you can't adjust the friction point, heavy-ness not so sure about. Could be a smaller bore master. I am not sure of the recall details.

I have to manage my time as best as possible depending how things go. I am increasingly more worried that this house may not be available to me for as long as I anticipated. WE are on september - september terms, and relying on my sisters staying here to keep the house is seeming less and less feasable. Last thing I want is one month notice that we have to leave with the car in peices. I will not risk losing it, and moving it as is will be a nightmare.
But hey, one day at a time. I am in the middle of a bunch of sh!t, and would love to get a job back here and come back home. I havent decided to cut corners yet. Motivated to get my ass in gear at the very least.

I know right? Sounds like a lazy excuse to me.. but when I asked, he said they can't be adjusted. They offered to rebleed the system again the next day to see if that could help, as they didn't have time to do it the same day. Richmond Hill is a far drive, and I couldn't afford losing another day of work.

Mike, I'd say bleed it again and it might help. I know Stephen bled mine like crazy and when I fired it up it felt strange but then went into place.

Ocean helps keeping temps fairly consistent through the year. During summer it does get a lot hotter in the desert far away from the ocean (40c+). However, due to lack of humidity temps always drop significantly after sun set.

I still remember the feeling after cranking my old 7 bolt after about 8 month of hibernation and bunch of new add-ons including clutch. Every crank felt a minute long, so many thoughts were rushing through my mind... and this amazing feeling when she starts...and the smell of carbon in the air. Best smell ever haha

Guilty as charged, I have been doing a bit of a show off shuffle
However, I really missed my DSM winter hibernation times. Work on projects that take many month to complete and by Spring my DSM feels like a totally different beast. As of right now I can't even do my own simple front brake pads swap frown I hate what stock exhaust did to my DSM frown and I can't get rid of it easily.

I remember how amazing it felt when winter was finally over in Ontario. Trees and flowers were coming back to life...doing my first DSM startup after 6 month, rolling down to driveway for first long waited car wash and sun bath. it doesn't feel same without winter...

I love the fact that a lowered 2g with a nice set of rims is much more attractive among the tuner/imports around which more than likely have a lot of $ spent on aesthetic upgrades

In my opinion 1g's are more for the enthusiast who can truely appreciate what a fine machine it really is

random missfires? First time I hear that one specific to the 2g.

Crankwalk can happen to ANY car, including 1gs. It's just known more on the 7 bolt (which by the way was also used in some 1gbs)

Borrowing parts from the 1g is only because they are cheaper. People with moola go aftermarket or upgrades (such as the 16g and up) from the factory. 2gs have a better exhaust manifold, shifter, rims, MAS if you want to go in the borrowing way. They both have parts that the other uses.

2gs have a more comfortable and ergonomic design; the controls hug the driver. 1g is comfortable (seat wise) but definitely not on its interior finish.

Shock towers are a bad design, but that's the only one I don't see countered. Besides, mine aren't and I know many other who don't have them. Just take care of the car tongue It's also a fault on the Skylines....and I wouldn't say no to a skyline laugh

rotflmao This is why I love the 1G-2G rivalry topic. Oh the passion!

I'll admit that I have run some 2G parts. wink

On the ergonomic design - do you drive a fighter jet or a flower? I drive a fighter jet.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2014 09:52 pm UTC

Yeah brother! I have been in very few cars that feel like a cockpit, I find the 1g super comfortable even compared to current day cars.
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2014 09:55 pm UTC

Ergonomic means easy/safe/less strain when using it (it's just the office people that gayed it up with chairs and keyboards)...you'd want that in a fighter jet, specially in times where things go fast wink Just like the Supra interior, it's all oriented towards the driver. Passenger doesn't NEED to press things tongue

It's good to have rivalry, seeing faults and correcting them is the essence of improving a design. laugh Now if only we could get Mitsubishi to build a new one...

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2014 09:59 pm UTC

I haven't used a protractor but I believe the 1G console points even more to the driver than the 2G's.

Post #15,001. Woot! 2Gs are good for something tongue
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2014 10:14 pm UTC

One thing I will agree the 1g has going over the 2g is less people screwing them up (also one of the reasons behind the 2g being known for crankwalk; all dumbnuts that have an issue with the engine on a 2g will, in most cases, automatically blame it on crankwalk). The 1g in general has more car enthusiasts behind it, mainly because it's more appealing to engine guys than looks only guys (due to its exterior). That gives it a more mature background. Although, being cheaper, it also attracts people with no money or car fixing abilities (so even then it's a bit of a random dispersion of the masses).

That being said 2gs, because they are naturally beautiful, will attract more that are only looks oriented. They will then mess with the electronics, engine not knowing what they are doing and giving it a bad rep. They also bring a lot of the "yo bro" community which I abhor.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 30, 2014 10:14 pm UTC

Guillaume is right. The dash angles towards the driver whereas the 1g looks like a a plank of wood with some dials and gauges.

2g wins every time. Ask the ladies wink

Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 31, 2014 12:00 am UTC

1gs were way ahead of its time when it was new. Really showed alot of people what 4 bangers were capable of. Then they designed the 2g to handle all the power a little better.

But as far as looks... To me...

1gs look like they should be racing hondas. 2gs look like they should be racing Vettes and ferraris.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 31, 2014 12:14 am UTC

2g Clutch assembly's are much better, 1g dashes look better, imo.

In the end, as much as I want another 2g instead on the 1g,there are enough things that I can't let it go.

I agree that 2g's look like cavaliers coming down the road.
cramped engine bay and girly interior.
But I do love the mean look of a 2gb talon coming at you.

Most 1ga's look like crap. Unless they are properly maintained and stanced. I personally only think the 2tone cars are any good looking. Blue/grey, purple /grey and the classic black and grey.

Any 1gb in a single colour that is all shined up has my vote.
Posted By: Stephan Tanchak

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 31, 2014 02:27 am UTC

I still want a 2gb with a Talon front. I really love how they look now that its grown on me. 1G's do look good when well maintained, but nearly all older sports cars do. 2g's have a timeless design.

I'm a big fan of the black top that Talon's have. White or red Talon with a black top would be my paint of choice.
Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 31, 2014 02:50 am UTC

My favs are 1ga talon front bumper and flip lights... With 1gb talon side skirts and rear bumper. Lowered with at least 17" wide wheels... And wingless to get rid of that 80s look. Hate the 1gb front end....hate the 1ga body and ass.. And hate all 1g spoilers.

2g.... Only the 2gb Talon appeals to me. 2gb eclipse look to bulky and yes ricy with their highrise spoilers and what looks like to me , an aftermarket body kit.

And 2ga anything just looks silly to me.

I like where you mounted the lisence plate Bryan. I'm moving mine there soon as after I cut the bumper to make room for the FMIC and mounted the plate back to where it was, my hood doesn't close properly for some reason. It takes a few tries. I wish we didn't have to have a front plate, the car looks better without it.

I don't even run a front plate anymore.

For the last year I didn't run one at all in the elantra. In the factory spot it blocked all airflow to my fmic and I didn't feel like drilling more holes for the stupid plate. Through random ride checks I got asked where it was I just said it rusted off and it's in the trunk. Nobody cared.

In 6 years of front plate infractions I only got one ticket

The only thing I really care about is that this block gets to 10.99 because you know after that I'll go all out on it and everything will be coated.

I agree on the air box, I'm just waiting until I make my new intake pipe for SD to finalize it, then I'll coat it.

Its tempting sometimes to find one that is rust free. But I watched "Love the Beast" documentary on Eric Bana's 1974 Ford XB Falcon this past summer, and it pushed me more than ever to not give up on this chassis. We are not looking too rotten! still enough metal to replace though.

I admire your dedication, just remember Bana's 74 is way harder to find in a clean shell then a 2g dsm And the Hulk has movie money to build/restore whatever he could possibly want. Just ask Stephan, he found 2 super clean shells for a steal, Either way keep doing what your doing.

I have been using different size and shape wire wheels on a grinder and a drill. There is a few pics of my oscillating multitool going to work too. Thing works wonders on the tougher undercoating and seam seal with less mess. I might need to use a bit of thinner in the front wheel wells and some other areas where the residue just wont scrape off. So far I have been trying the wheel and power scraper methods. Got some floor pan done too.

The first reason I have done this is to find hidden rust problem areas. Most is turning out to be surface, but I have found some bad spots. Those spots will then be hopefully properly extracted and welded back to goodness.

And second, yes! before I get technical I would like to get a MIG and practice some MIG welding on the bench. When I am confident with my process, I will turn to stitch weld the seams. It would be a shame not to at this point. Not sure how urgently I ll consider a rear roll and harness bar. Also be nice to shave some holes, and make brakets for fuel upgrades, wire tuck, oil cooler, ect.

Time isn't urgent just yet, my garage seems to stay very dry. I d love to see this thing in black primer and start seam sealing again though.

I was thinking about it at one point, but again I m moving quicker just working at it than waiting around for money. I did alot of research on the topic. I am all for the idea of getting in the seams and nooks and crannies with acid, but I heard stories of what happens too if the process doe s not get all the acid out.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 07, 2014 08:21 pm UTC

Mike for a sandblaster that you would be using in this context it's actually pretty cheap, you can grab a siphon gun that has a canister on it and then just a 50lb bag of sand, which is like 10 or 20$.
Unless you don't have a compressor, than it's a little more expensive.

The compressor he'd need for sandblasting is a very expensive (and large) piece of equipment. You'll probably want something that can push 11-14 SCFM @ 90psi or more to really run it well.

As for acid dipping - it's great, but as Stephan said if they don't get every last drop of acid out, you WILL have issues. Paint will bubble, etc...it is a very finnicky procedure.

Budget 2k for acid dipping. No acid is left as it is put into a neutralizing tank afterwards.

The big issues is not being able to protect the inside of surfaces which you can't reach like the inside of frame rails and such.

I'm on the hunt for new blasting equipment for Brightside and just the cabinet I'm budgeting 5k not including the compressor to run it.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 07, 2014 09:18 pm UTC

Most places use phosphoric acid which will leave a protective residue on the metal (most other acids will keep eating the metals if you leave them soaked in acid, phosphoric acid will not).

That being said, once you have a bare frame you can spray stuff into the frame rails as need be. I believe POR or one of those other companies has a special frame rail setup for getting into those hard to reach places.

Much easier to get everywhere when the car is stripped and on a rotisserie (Which it would be if you're stripping it like that).

Dipping is sounding pretty damn tempting still. Protecting inner surfaces was my worry. I thought of putting POR15 through my main frame rails and heard it sticks better to rust than clean metal anyways. That being said I have no idea how clean the frame rails are past what is visible at each end.

Bingo. My buddy has an enclosed princess auto unit. Too finicky with moisture, running a big compressor though. I would need a compressor upgrade to put up with the flow the gun needs, something I dont really have room for. I was mentioning that the acid must all come out wink

Unless you don't have a compressor, than it's a little more expensive.

I dont Think I would be saving alot of time. If I need it for the nooks and crannies and keep the decision against dipping, I ll borrow my friend's smile

When I have my cashflow back I have some vitally important decisions to make smile would like to hold onto this car till the demise of one of us. Trying to do the chassis right this time and it wont be seeing salt or much moisture ever again. Some methods may be quicker than others, but not sure just yet if it warrants spending 2 grand if I dont need to. That might be better spent elsewhere. I ll have a better idea in a month or so.

^ You need to come to the Shootout then.

Last year they made a GVR4 reserved parking area where most of them parked in a line. All really well taken care of.

I pulled the ABS out of my current car and I can vouch, there is a lot more than meets the eye. The pump, all the stupid lines, the wiring, the ABS "brain" inside the car, proportioning valve, all that good stuff gets thrown off a cliff.

The wiring for the ABS blew my mind on my 2G. There's a bundle that runs behind the bottom of the radiator support; all ABS wiring. I wonder how much the whole system weighs.

Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - March 16, 2014 08:27 pm UTC

I heard a sunfire or something roll by with a red cherry bomb resonator style muffler.. In my opinion... I think they sound better on 4bangers then fart cans. I think I may go that route. 3" from the flex to the cherrybomb... To a slight bend past the rear axle and then peak it out just past the bumper.

Not a fan of the oem stock looking twin tips. My belief all these years was that if you cant roll a 3" ball thru the entire exhuast and it roll the tip.... It wasnt good enough.

I put a lot of effort into making the exhaust/muffler look as stock as possible. I've had DSM owners not realise it wasn't stock wink Tips are the same size, slant & roll as stock, even had them welded staggered like the OEM setup. Then finished it off with bead blasting the SS polished muffler to give it an OEM look.

The custom system flows much better then the old Apexi N1 fart can setup & sounds better to boot (much louder & more aggressive sounding).


Muffler is 3" in to dual 2.25", no loss in flow here, due the math, the dual 2.25" portion is not the restriction wink

The P1 only has roughly a 10km range, before it will leave you "eating a chocolate shoe" or turning on the gas engine.

Ignoring repair costs and having a more complex system to modify, electric assist seems like it would make for a more fun car.

The plus at being at stock height is you don't really have to worry about the cheap plastic under engine covers... I had both of mine tear off this winter due to the snow. It's apparently a common thing according to some other owners (who just said fu*k it and zip tied what was left) The smaller one is around $80 and the larger main one is over $200. God damn rip off.

Thankfully it's not ride height as I would lose my exhaust before even getting it close to home.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 18, 2014 07:07 am UTC

Car isn't going to be fast by any means coming out of the hole. It's been sitting since 2007, I'm sure I will have other things to worry about this year than try to compete with others. Eventually it will get there, but for the first bit it's got an e316g in a ported 7cm hotside, with a ported 2G manifold and ported tubular o2 housing.

Initially I had bigger plans for this car, but life got in the way so some of those things will have to wait. That's why for now I'll be running a 16G with a SMIM.

Not working anymore is harsh. But I at least have a little more time to work on the car, and clean things here and there as I go.

Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 18, 2014 07:18 am UTC

^ That's exactly my plan smile I'm also going to delete the washer fluid reservoir, so that whole corner will be clean and free of anything. Wire harness will get dropped and tucked of course, along with anything else. I'm aiming for a really clean engine bay.

I have a few spare rear washer reservoirs to modify and try the following: I want to do like the 2G's do. One rear tank, 2 pumps, one for the windshield one for the hatch. So I can keep both front and rear sprayers, while eliminating the under-hood tank smile
Posted By: Stephan Tanchak

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 18, 2014 07:28 am UTC

Let me know if you want a 2G washer tank. Got 2 spares that I wont use.

Can't wait to see how clean this engine bay will be in person!
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 18, 2014 05:51 pm UTC

The 2G sits differently than the 1G. This is going to be as hidden as possible in the stock location smile But thank you for the offer. And likewise, I'm looking forward to see how it will turn out myself! It will be far from "show car", I am just going for clean and simple.

I just watched someone remove a windshield last week with a reciprocating saw and an scrapper attachment like this guy (http://www.milwaukeetool.com/accessories/cutting/49-00-5456). Took him longer to remove the trim then it did the windshield.

I have been driving my DSM around for the last few days. Old, powerful and raw is a good way to describe this car.
After driving my Evo X around for a few months, it really makes the DSM feel really really old.
Now I remember why I built this car: to pound the living sh!t out of it! demon

I dunno about you guys, maybe I am just getting old, but driving a highly modified 1992 DSM during day time traffic in the GTA really makes me feel like I stick out like a sore thumb! shuffle I mean, except for Helder's and Kevin's car, I can't even remember the last time I have seen a modified 1g DSM driving around under its own power, lol.
Posted By: Terry S

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 28, 2014 04:11 pm UTC

kids these days don't even know what DSM's are let alone care. In a sea of new, modern, comfortable cars of course your early 90's sticks out like a sore thumb, but like you said that's not why you built it.

RZA, post some pictures of the beast!

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 28, 2014 04:25 pm UTC

I felt the same way when I was daily drivin my old red 92 and I'm sure I will get it again as soon as the 93 is on the road. I found that many people stare. It does stick out a lot, they're sharp old-school lookin cars that are extremely rare to see.

At lights the thing would just sit there and lump away as it's idling. I'm sure some people thought it was the biggest misfiring pos ever. Gotta love it smile

Re: Post your car pic page?. - April 28, 2014 04:33 pm UTC

These cars are Extinct. Its more common to see a numbers matching car from the 60's flying down the highway than a functioning DSM.

@ Terry, I thought the same thing. Except when my gf who is a highschool teacher said a couple of her kids were talking about dsm's. she piped up about my car, and they were asking if it was turbo, awd, etc.

I guess there is some hope for the younger crowd.

I like being loud and obnoxious!! Love the idea of normal average traffic and then I come roaring down the road .. Bit of back fire... Then a quick few little revs as I round the corner.. And hear the turbo spool as I dissapear down the road. I really love when a nice new mustang cobra is sitting at a light across from me, and people check me out instead!

Was thinkkng of a kill switch under the dash to prevent theft. But we dont see much grand theft auto here.

It still happens.
Even a couple easy and hidden kill switches are worth it.

My old Integra had crazy security when I live in TO. Stealth alarm install, every kill function you can think of, tilt sensor, proximity sensor, glass breakage sensor, etc.

I didn't think it was possible to wire up the airbag since its a dual stage vs our stock single (haven't actually looked into it, just from posts online)? I would have swapped to the Evo wheel already but I thought you had to lose the airbag, which isn't something I want to do.

In that case it's not worth the risk wiring that up. According to Terry S, second best option is 3G wheel with plug & play air bag. As far as diameter goes it should be right in the middle between stock OEM and evo8.

Posted By: Stephen Richardson

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 05, 2014 11:22 pm UTC

I don't think I would ever wire an airbag in that wasn't actually designed for the vehicle. Better off just deleting the SRS system. There is alot of logic and programming that goes into thoses systems and having an explosive bag staring me in the face that may go off at anytime or not at all when needed is probably the dumbest thing I can think of. Other then sticking a loaded gun in my mouth and hoping it doesn't fire....
Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 05, 2014 11:37 pm UTC

Just take the wires tha go to the air bag.... And wire them to a device that will automaticly play a loud recorded sound when activated. So that when you hit somehing.. It will automaticly scream "frack" !!

And I really mean the word frack.... Cause thats the DsM swear word!

In celebration of a complete teardown! Toe arms are an exception and can wait until I cut some bad rocker panel apart. Good news is I have met, and will be doing side jobs for, a restoration expert! He can be my go to for welding and bodywork, and has a sandblasting acquaintance. Apparently I have done such a good prep on the car that sandblasting shouldn't cost too much at this point. Need to now buy wood to make a car dolly, and sheet metal to start fabbing patch panels. I m also torn between getting this thing cleaned up and in primer ASAP or doing a quick mock up for wire tucking, shaves, deletes, new brackets, relocation, and ducting. Problem is I dont have any of the required fuel, guage, and ignition upgrades. ($$$)... Sorry for the slow progress monotony.

Based on Mike's previous posts: money is more of an issue than time so I guess it make sense to keep going with it. My only concern if the following was done:
- document the order of how parts were removed
- sorting bolt/nuts/washers/small parts into individual labeled bags/plastic folders.
- labels on wiring and connectors

Disassembly is nowhere as easy as reassembly.

Wiring is laid out labelled in my basement smile Most bolts went back in where they came from. The ones in the shell may need to removed soon and be bagged and tagged.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 26, 2014 01:34 am UTC

Meh, I find it more functional there actually: blocks no air damns, plugs the holes, and allows me to put an oil cooler later on the driver side. Kills the look a bit, but lets face it, my bumper ain't much to look at anyway.

Plus I'm getting frustrated with this car lately, so Duck it, it's staying. The 1g is just made to work. I just make it somewhat passable for pretty because my brain tells me to.

Just grab those black plastic "Christmas tree" plugs and plug those holes.

Previous owner of my car fucked up with mounting the front plate so after buying the front bracket, I relocated it to the oem spot and just used a bit of plastic bondo, touch up paint and done.

Aerocatch hood pins in, close and open properly. Made the install stealthy on the under hood while retaining as much as possible the structural rigidity (via fiberglass skeleton). Although, I'm off a bit on where the hood pins are located in relation to one another. Took me a while, but made it work.

Thanks for the help Terry. I can drop by tomorrow with your Dremel if you're around.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 01, 2014 01:35 am UTC

It was a real iffy night, occasional sprinkles, so they didn't prep the track at all. On top of that I forgot I had raised my tire pressure for a long trip last weekend. So when I launched it basically wheel hopped, but in the rear, really bad. I figured I'd just make a couple passes and work on my launch but that ended the night really fast.

Here's a vid of the launch, I didn't even have my helmet on as I wasn't planning on running hard down the track.

On a positive note, I was still able to drive home smile

Thanks Bryan. Long flat surfaces I do find a little trickier than just say, a fender. I've never painted a roof on a DSM, the old red one I left the roof original since the paint was good on it. This time around I'm doing my roof, fenders, and hatch as well as a friend's roof that same day (also a 1G). I have new tools to use this time around so it should come out nice I hope. The hardest part is the prep for the paint.

I know it's better for higher power and extra cooling, but for what I need it for, it's not needed. All I want out of the 1g is a quick daily, good on gas that can possibly later on do some Auto-X. Worse comes to worse, I have a water injection kit itching to get used wink

I still your crazy for shuning a front mount. Honestly I love mine. And its not even a great one. But I guess if you google all the morons that have issues it scares people...... I know you are not scared of spending money on your DSM's. Which is good. But I tell you once you go front mount you will never turn back. And that shroud will help alot and even better if you fab up an airdamn to create a lower pressure system under your engine.

After all the fmics Ive installed. Installing the supra mount on Sandras 1g seemed so easy! i dont blame you for sticking with sidemounts. There proven to hold up against alot of fmics.
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 17, 2014 03:01 am UTC

Out of curiosity, how low does the Supra Side Mount on Sandra's car sag relative to the bottom of the car?

[Linked Image]

That's how low mine sags, couldn't bring it up anymore than that due to how I mounted it. I do agree, ease of installation/price and gains are unequal to anything a FMIC can bring to the table.

Yes, I do realize that Stephen. I do actually have FMICs for both my cars in storage (both of which are long route so I can switch easily from one set up to another if I ever chose to do so). I have more DSM parts than you can shake a stick at tongue I just don't see their purpose on a daily though. It also attracts unwanted attention from both the local police who love to bug anyone with modded cars in Brampton/Toronto and all the "yo bro" types that love to rev at anything with shiny bits sticking out lol Heck I was on the verge of buying an ETS street kit anodized black for the 2g a little while back as a "just in case" future part but decided against it. A good water injection (no need for meth) can help my SMIC perform just as good as any FMIC out there if not better, and only kicks in when I truly need it, unlike a FMIC that can't be switched on and off.

I also like being different and keeping things simple. Less chances of things going wrong and this car has been problematic since day 1!

Let me know how that works for you once you heat soak that intercooler of yours after 6 good pulls (with meth) Then compare that to a FMIC with a good core.

Also don't try to argue that spool is faster. Just repeat what I said above.



Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 17, 2014 03:29 am UTC

again.....this is a DAILY.

Per the logical sense, yes it will spool quicker. Fills up quicker, piping is short. That's just math. Is it something that I'll likely see a difference while driving, probably not. But it will spool quicker, especially on already quick spooling turbos. fact.
Posted By: Corte Beech

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 17, 2014 06:24 am UTC

Usually, it is not necessary to upgrade the intercooler when raising boost levels. The pressure drop contributed by the intercooler is proportional to it's flow (CFM) squared. This relationship shows that it is highly unlikely the change resulting in loss from higher boost levels will require a larger intercooler. If there is a significant change however, such as 40% or 50%, then a larger intercooler may be necessary.

Pressure loss, or pressure drop, refers to the change in pressure when comparing the air entering the intercooler with the exiting air. This change is mostly affected by the internal flow area of the intercooler. Flow loss, however, is measured not just with pressure loss but with how much restriction to airflow exists. Maximum performance can be obtained if the pressure loss is kept below 1.0 to 1.5 psi. Anything in excess of these numbers, especially higher than 3.8 psi, and the intercooler is not properly fitted for the application which results in hindered performance and dramatically decreased functionality of the intercooler system itself.

Too small of a core, and you will restrict the potential of the turbo by not allowing the charge air to be cooled adequately.

From documented successfull experiance... People have been running supra sidemounts for many years making really good power and fast cars. The supra side mount is known to be a very good contender for a street car. And handles heat well. Specially for anything that can fit i a td05 housing.

And Im waiting for my speed density to run it.

Absolutely, but this a daily, never abused and not boosting more than 15 psi at the moment (and probably ever). Purposely made to save gas and have a bit of ummpphh when needed. So yes, per your logic and your copy and paste from Garrett, this intercooler will do what it's suppose to. Not to mention, unlike many SMIC users, I have it properly ducted and cleaned thoroughly in and out before use. You're thinking taking it to the limit, boosting way higher (with 40-50% changes in CFM and most likely be at or higher than the sweet spot of the turbo). In which case you'd be right. This isn't the case here.

As for the math, pay me for my time and I'll have a model made for you via Fluent to show you that at my boost level, it does indeed do what I'm saying. I know when you're pushing it to the limit you need a FMIC...hence why I have 2 sets (one for each car) in storage if I ever wish to change my vision on the cars. As a daily like I have....not needed it's just wasted money.

So again, what are you serving? I have the day off today, I'd love a nice cold beer wink

If the parts are already in storage, what money are you wasting?

Sorry.. had to laugh

I know you love your SMIC's, and honestly in a daily driver that NEVER sees any kind of competitive use, by all means do whatever it is that makes you happy. It shouldn't be about whether the SMIC will perform better or not; who cares? It's a street car, turn the boost up if you think it's slow.

But at the same time.. you shouldn't let the fact that the cops and "the homies" react a certain way to FMICs dictate whether or not you run one tongue

Thing of the past? Yeah it's old news but it still works. So why forget about them? If I had my choice I'd have a Dejon super side mount for the 1g as well (since that's what I'm running on the 2g). Was buying one when I was looking, but the deal fell through. Finding one is hell though since Dejon went out of business and most current owners don't know what it is, and both ADX and Alamo (other 2 manufacturers for smics) are a bit too bulky for my taste. They work, it's just that people couldn't justify putting X amount of money on one purposely built for the car when they could buy a cheap chinese FMIC kit from ebay for the same price.

Not to mention a lot of DSMers are bit by the "buy bigger so won't have to upgrade it again later" bug with injectors/turbos/intercooler/dsmlink. Which I'm all for if you actually do ramp up the performance to that stage one day, but most don't. So it's wasted money.

Besides, that way I make use of the bumper vents as this was the original idea from the manufacturers. You'll also note that I already have a vacuum created by the wheel right behind it which helps suck air through it. Again, intended by the engineers when they developed it.

You know me, I have parts up the wazoo so chances are I'd have anything and everything anyway. But who's to day I'm not going to sell them soon once I'm happy with what I have? I buy in quantity...which my wallet hates me for but I like being able to go: "well...that'd be fun to try...oh...here's one in a box lets give it a go: tongue

The last one is just an added benefit, the 2g already gets too much attention so making the 1g look like a granny car is it's complete opposite. The cf will be painted when I get a chance in case you're wondering.

^ Ding Ding We have a winner tongue I also hate cutting my car up to make things fit (which almost all FMICs require). I like keeping my cars minty. The Supra Sidemount only required a small incision on the bumper bottom lip (and a bumper is easily replaced if I ever wish to make it a perfect OEM car one day). Structurally, the steel on the car is untouched laugh

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 17, 2014 08:51 pm UTC

When I had to choose between a fmic and a smic for sandras 1g.. I looked at labour. Alot of work needed to be done the front end of her car to fit the fmic. Between cutting the front bumper steel, removeing AC lines, oowersteering lines, clearing out pathways for IC pipes. Then comparing that to the supra sidemount. It was a no brainer. A I did was remove some material from the section above the stock IC. And the supra IC fit right up with a few braces. The Ic pipes will cost about the same... But the supra core is usally half the price of the cheapest FMIC. So money wise it was better for me aswell. People have ran 400+ h cars with out heatsoak, so it should be more then adaquate for most of our daily drivers. Would I run it on my 2g? prolly not... But I plan on making awsome numbers with out ever using meth. So I will needas muh intercooler as I cget.

Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 21, 2014 10:28 pm UTC

It's actually not hard...just long. Plus I kept the manifold attached to save me some headache in case a bolt breaks. This also gave me an opportunity to give the turbo a once-over hot/cold side. Water pipe is also completely cleaned, including the water line going to the water/oil cooler.

I just didn't want to remove any belts, that was my main focus as I don't have cash for new belts/water pump right now and they work presently.
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 21, 2014 10:30 pm UTC

It also doesn't help that my water line had the bolt blocking the turbo water passage. Which of course is a B*TCH to get at and you need to as it blocks the pipe to the block if you don't.

Didn't see that you wanted to avoid breaking a bolt. Don't be shy, use lots of penetrating oil and crack them free. Longer they stay in, more chance they will seize.
Posted By: Guillaume Berton

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 21, 2014 10:59 pm UTC

nah I'd need more room perpendicular to the block, so I'd need to break my radiator support tongue My hand drill is BIG! I have the space to drill, just not enough for my hand drill, to try the reverse drill bit thing (as I'm more toquy than my drill :p)
Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - June 21, 2014 11:09 pm UTC

I've also drilled out broken bolts stepping up the drill bit sizes, as long as you're perfectly center, you will eventually weaken the broken bolt where the threads were seized. It will turn out at that point.

Managed to save just enough thread from the original bolt to re-use it. That original bolt was glued/welded in by the looks of it. Tried easy-outs/reverse drill bit/heat/cold/unseize products...the works, nothing got to it. So drilled as much as I could, and used my dremel with a grinding bit for the rest

Thanks to Bryan for his drill bit lending abilities tongue (although I ended up buying some hardcore zirconium tipped ones since I was at CT anyway). So yours are still brand spanking new wink

I also made sure to clean every part I took off, the water pipe was disgusting like most of the pipes for that matter. Now all I need to do is put everything back together, pray that the used alt I put in is good and she should be good for new tires and some tarmac!

Little update on the AWDAuto.

Doing a straight 3" V-Band cat-back with the V-Bands on the cat so I can swap out to a test pipe for race day. Thanks to RTM Racing, I've upgraded to a Tial 50mm BOV, some better fuel filtering, couple of new gaskets to freshen things up and the fab parts for the exhaust.

Mike @ Brightside supplied me with this -10AN bung'd purple valve cover to match with the rest of the bay and a sourced from here used Magnus street SMIM is going to complete this year's package.

Here's a shot of the almost done engine bay.

Home depot garage door seal if I recall correctly.

The gasket on the OFH that separates the pieces blew out. But due to quick thinking and reactions, the engine was shut off right after so everything is okay.

Deep is going with an air cooled OFH now.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 02, 2014 07:30 am UTC

Thanks guys smile I'm not sure who Brian is, but that's not. It's my friend Shawn's 1989 build date AWD. 118k on it, looks pretty beaten from sitting for too long but runs like a top.

As for my timing belt, tension is perfect. Adjusted correctly, the pin can slide right back into the tensioner. All the timing components (except belt of course) have about 25-30k from my old 94 which did not have the belt riding towards the block. Everything appears correct, it's just the way it sits. Everything is tight. It doesn't rub on anything or walk around, so I'm not sure what really is causing it to be off to the left side.

Should make it to the Shootout, if the car doesn't I still will smile

They were $88 a tire for 235/45/17, that's good enough for me.
Posted By: Salomon Ponte

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 03, 2014 12:34 pm UTC

They are by far the best bang for the buck and even if priced the same as their competitors the Ventus still outperform in many categories. The one thing they are usually lower ranked than most in is tire life (km) but if they're going on a DSM then there's definitely nothing to worry about in that regard.
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 03, 2014 12:41 pm UTC

That was my thoughts too, I don't get out as much as most of you so I am not really worried about 280.
The new evo2s are 340 though so that's an option if the treadware really worries you.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - August 03, 2014 04:49 pm UTC

For my next set, I'm going to be picking up some Nitto NT05's if I cant get a great deal for something locally. They have double the same tread life of my current 615k's which it seems I can get about 3 summers worth out of them.

I run those same tires well a bit wider. Pretty good in my books, nice and quiet and once warmed up they get pretty sticky.

But they don't compare too my old Toyo RA1's & R888's I use to run when on a course. Shouldn't really be comparing them as they're two different class of tires

I have about 4 track days on the ziex's now and they are holding up great!

Well, from high, to low. Sounds like a failed throw out bearing. Just a casual drive into work this morning, all was well, just went to shift into 5th and it grinded, this tranny has never grinded before. When I got to the off ramp, pedal was hard and made a grinding noise when trying to push it. This happened about 2 km from work so I shut it off, put it in 1st and started it, yup rolled even with the pedal pushed in. So I finished the journey in 1st gear. Popped out the clutch fork boot at work, can't see anything abnormal, slave is working properly but the pedal still feels wrong. Looks like I know what I'm doing tonight.

For sure, I'm only about 5km away so I'm just going to 1st gear it home on the side streets. I don't have much for tools here and I use my overhead hoist in my garage to hold up the motor while the tranny is out smile

At some point they've changed the hub design, mine is over 3 years old and Shane Gallop just showed me his which is newer and looks to have a much thicker hub.

The newer stuff uses an Exedy HD center hub. Tim Zimmer recommended it to me for harmonics of using the clutch on a road course.

I think sprung/unsprung clutch seems to go in the same category as 6/7 bolt, oem/Saturn alternator, etc.

Good to know. If I stick with a single-disk setup (which I likely will), I will more than likely be going with a Southbend setup.

Hey Jason, don't take this the wrong way, but IMHO ceramic coating an intercooler is a very bad idea. As with your rad you want to promote heat exchange. You do not want to insulate the hot air from the fresh one. I would definitely go the anodizing rte if you want to change the look. just my 2 cents

It all depends on what the ceramic material is made of. They have been using ceramics as heat sinks for cooling for years probably aslong as they have been using it as an insulator.

Meet Cheryl, my $1300 kijiji pick of the night. 229k, brand new winter tires, no rust, no accidents, really clean. Timing belt has been done, flex pipe replaced (common to break). 2005, 5-speed Elantra GLS. Drives perfectly, everything works. I have a little fleet of Elantras now lol! It's the same cast iron block/aluminium DOHC head G4GC "Beta II" engine as my white turbo auto, but this one has VVT.

Cam/spring swap, fix a minor oil leak, pretty sure its the crank seal on the front case, swap out clutch, re-install and boost on smile

This tired old 7 bolt is going to run a 10.99 or blow up attempting to do so, one of the 2 is a given.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 09, 2015 08:10 pm UTC

LOL Alex you better have good ventilation if you are using that, unless you have a death wish.

Nice thing about the oil heater is that you plug them in and heat them up and it retains heat very well, i usually just make sure it's relatively close to me.

That list is like 2 years old. But funny enough I didn't get around to installing the 272's as I upgraded to 280's which aren't installed yet. Everything done except that and the passenger seat.

But at this point, it's a completely different list lol.

My garage has insulation but no heat. I would be in there but there's far too much stored furniture and equipment to get comfortable in there. Had thought about doing the storage bay thing like you Alex but that reason alone isn't justifiable just yet.

They are rated for inside use. When burning properly with the proper fuel they are very clean and safe. I would still suggest a carbon monoxide detector be present with any fuel burning appliance.

I picked mine up today, $135 in with the taxes at the border. Tested it out and it works very nice and throws off a lot of heat.

Exactly. It's a perfect "4 door family car" xD. Plus, ever since Tim took me for a rip in his I've kinda wanted one. They're the same kind of thing, but yet different.
Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 17, 2015 12:49 pm UTC

I think the space between the rear wheel well and the top of the trunk line is too big. Makes the rear tires look too small compared to the rest of the car. The black rear section on thay white car and Tims car help. But because of that.. Id prolly pass on it, and buy a Subie for a family car. To me thay look much nicer. But then in my opinion.. SUVs make much better family cars.

Driving Tims Evo.. was definatly a thrill!

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 17, 2015 02:18 pm UTC

It's cause of the angle the picture was taken at. You're looking into the wheel wells so it makes the gap look much worse than it is.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 22, 2015 02:56 am UTC

Something tells me most guys on here have the 2gs for fun rather than alternative uses tongue

They just feel better inside, more refined imo. The 1g you have to beat on to really have enjoyment. Although it's probably a blast on a track, it feels out of touch when driving in common traffic. Personally, I like the seating position in the 2g better than the 1g. Also, instead of feeling like an aquarium (square and see-through) the 2g feels more like a jet fighter capsule; all rounded with the same visibility. A little less corner room inside, but who uses the corners of meeting metal? Wasted space tongue

Seeing as it's newer it doesn't have flimsy controls (most 1gs on a hard bump will trigger the wipers lol, mine included: worn stocks)
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 22, 2015 12:23 pm UTC

LOL this conversation is always too funny. Personal preference is always a fun thing to argue!! I love my 1g, probably because it's unrefined, and that's further enhance because everything behind the seats has been stripped. My only complaint is the seats don't hold me that well, after being in the evo seats I have really been wanting something better.

Side note: Mitsubishi would really be doing something wrong if there newer car wasn't more refined.

I bought a warranty with it, and I know how to use a wrench.....i think tongue Its under 100k so its still got some life in her before I should start to worry, and its got a brand new clutch as of last month curtsey of the dealer.

Repairs don't scare me, 207 dollar replacement xenen bulbs from dealer scare me. Ebay bulbs dont work, the car knows.....ask me how I know smile

If your offset is +40, you can run a 9.6" wide tire (245mm) with full clearance, with an 8" wide rim.

Looks clean.

Jason, WTF. Why do you work so fast?

Posted By: Manny Sandhu

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 05, 2015 08:02 pm UTC

Oh yea Michael I still scrape but I added that garage door liner ez lip which adds some aesthetics and saves the bumper somewhat

and that's wicked news mike I was actually looking to get wider tires maybe a lower profile but wider for sure right now the tires look to have a tiny bit of stretch and Id prefer a beefier looking tire width wise

and Jason you set the bar way too high for me ever to think I will catch up tongue

That's pretty mad Manny, I was on 45 and I thought that was low profile. I think you would be able to stick with 40 when going to 245.
Posted By: Manny Sandhu

Re: Post your car pic page?. - May 05, 2015 08:35 pm UTC

Thanks Alex the rims were added after you last saw her!

Alex and Jay I had noticed that and also noticed I still do have all 4 rubber stoppers there the 2 in the center were just fully screwed in ... ive backed those out now hood fits a bit cleaner

but last weekend I attemped to realign the side skirts boy was that a can of worms passenger side is mint driver needs some looking at but the driver side fender seems its been banged around too

also fyi prior to me owning this 2g it was involved in a minor collision on the front passenger side

also bryan I don't mind my current profile I wouldn't mind a tad bit smaller but I also would mind banging and bending the rims on every damn pothole so im going to look into 245/40 when im ready to replace

Eclipse.. It dosent even have style... Lol.

Makes the car look heavy.

To me the eclipse ass only looks good if it had a huge carbon fiber wing.

Just like the 2gb eclipse front bumper looks much better with a Carbon fiber hood with a huge raised hood vent. Aswell as a lip... It does look good with a lip!
But thats just me.

The likeness of your styling does not spread far. The OEM look of 2Gb Eclipse and Talon were refined as much as possible. There is not much more left to improve in my view. The front lip does improve styling, i agree with you on that.

Thanks Jeremy! I am currently considering running 240-245/40 for my next set of tires. Also hoping to clean up the fender to wheel gap a tad bit via koni adjustables in the near future for personal preference (quarter inch to a half inch in the rear and a half to three quarter in the front.

Also considering 17" rpf1s

Lol you're not wrong about the colour.. It's oem silver and the from the door forward a "near" match from a shotty body shop after the front end hit. A horrible attempt to blend imo but with a lot of wax, it's less noticeable.

And I have to admit I was wrong about these wheels. Story goes, Mike D. Found this set of 17x8.5 +40 with nitto nt05 255/40's for a sweet deal near me. I picked them up for him.. And convinced him to sell them to me.

It's unreal how light weight they are.

I'll use them as track wheels and I still have my BBS knock offs. Which will be strictly street tires.

Finally got to try the car out for the first time this year, very first time launching the twin disk, that was quite different lol. Just trying to get a feel for the car again so I went to this track that does a Friday night "street racing", just a traffic light, no tree and no track prep, kinda lame but still fun.

Only on 20 psi of boost, while I get it dialed in for the new goodies under the hood.

First launch was a fail but I ran him down tongue



Second pass went much better, a guy with a Cherokee SRT8 approached me wanting to race, I couldn't turn down that offer.



I have no clue on times but I was around the 120mph mark on the second pass.

I got a damn "improper muffler" ticket not too long ago for the first time in my life. The only car I've owned with not one, but 2 mufflers gets ticketed... Guess all the crime must've been solved that night in Cambridge, rapists in jail, drug dealers and murderers off the streets, and the cop had to be out protecting the public from loud mufflers at 11:30 at night.

Here are a few of the ricecar. Sporting 2G 2-piston brake calipers and SS lines and Evo 1 rotors. You can take me out of a DSM, but you can't take the DSMer out of me.

Only place I ever got an 'improper muffler' ticket was in Waterloo at about 12:30am one night coming home from the gym. Officer said he 'pulled me over to make sure I was aware there were lots of drunk people walking around and that I would be careful not to hit any' then proceeded to make me wait for 30 minutes before giving me an improper muffler ticket which got thrown out after about 2 years of waiting in/for court dates.

Maybe you should be dealing with the drunk idiots walking on the road instead of bothering drivers.

My father had a maroon coloured one, I hated it, because he never took care of it, and it was rusting, so it looked terrible.

Haha, but yeah, I was surprised it drove the way it did in that kind of condition.

Good little cars. You gonna boost the 05 manual too?

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 17, 2015 03:32 pm UTC

Looking clean Lucian, when are you going to "boost" this one? I figured you would be spraying already and we would have some times!

I only once got asked about my muffler and I just told the guy that it was on the car when I got it and was planning to replace it. My 3" is quieter than my 2.25 when I am light on the peddle so havn't had any issues since it went on.

Thanks guys smile I doubt I will be doing anything crazy to this one. It's reliable and good on gas, and it's still pretty fun since it handles extremely well with the suspension mods. So far all I've done has been extremely cheap/free for the most part, probably going to leave it at that and just enjoy it for what it is.

That would look good too, you are also fairly local to him so you have a little more power to argue for better fitment.

I took the hatch off my parts car and filled the holes and had it paint matched for mine.

I respect your opinion. Honestly, the biggest drive behind EDMs is how rare they are and not how better looking they are. Within DSM community they defiantly make you "standout from the crowd" but asking none DSMers so far received most negative feedback.

Upon closer examination of EDM vs USDM tails reveals that section in yellow is not made transparent plastic like USDM, few style points lost in my books. While still OEM, it seems like Mitsu rushed it out a bit.

Yep i completely rewired it to my likens and also had to modify outer flasher sockets so the flash high brightness instead of low. The center pin is ground, by rotating connector i switched from low to high brightness.
[Linked Image]
[Linked Image]

As it sits now i have the following configuration:
- outer yellow sections are reserved for flashers only
- LED dual brightness bulbs used in other two square sections.
- high brightness is used for brakes
- low brightness is used for running lights.

flashers plus running lights.

Right now my attention is all on performance. I need this car go fast! I've been fighting with knock on anything above 19psi on this unstable "Cali Style" 91 piss with timing that feels like anti-lag.
Just as of an hour ago i filled 2.3 gallon of E85 and full tank of 91 piss on top. This would be my first time to experiment with the mix. Keeping fingers crossed.

Thanks Mike.
Right now my attention is all on performance. I need this car go fast! I've been fighting with knock on anything above 19psi on this unstable "Cali Style" 91 piss with timing that feels like anti-lag.
Just as of an hour ago i filled 2.3 gallon of E85 and full tank of 91 piss on top. This would be my first time to experiment with the mix. Keeping fingers crossed.

Plus E85 requires a big investment in your fuel system if you want to do it right with no problems. Plus, you'd likely want to run a flex-fuel sensor as well which is more cost and more work.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - November 19, 2015 07:34 pm UTC

I've played with the E85 mix and it worked quite well, sucks I only had 5 gallons to play with.

I already started making bracket for flex fuel sensor shuffle

I also have ecmlink wiring that goes together with sd. With 2.3 gallons of e85 and 91 to top it up it increased combinedFT value by about 5%. Therefore, car ran leaner but not lean enough to blow stuff up. With flex fuel i can have ecmlink adjust global fuel value dynamically and also display ethanol petcentage on my stock boost gauge.

Looks like that would be a great time.

Although it bugs me to see people still use aerosol or spray bottle tire shine. And seeing asphalt over spray. It just seems like they're trying too hard.

I don't use any of those products anymore after discovering the gel and sponge applicator comes out a hundred times cleaner.

Other than that, still looks like a good time.

Thanks Bryan. SD is doing well. There are pluses and minuses. Minuses: during warm up period my A/F swings too much betwen 12.5 - 17.5 but once warms up it's swings stable around 14.8.
Pluses: better response and kicks in sooner and harder at WOT.

This year jet streams pushes arctic air down towards Cali and warmer air towards eastern Canada.

If this pattern continues you guys should have an early spring like in 2012. Here is the weather in Brampton during March 2012. As long as great lakes stay warm: Spring starts early:)

That's a negative, still rocking Rochester 95LBs. I dialed them in best i could so i'll keep them until i am out of injector duty cycles. Currently I am at 68.8% with 30 % ethanol(59% without ethanol) in my fuel, 37.8lb/m air flow, 21.5 PSi, 373whp according to Link.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 18, 2015 09:47 pm UTC

I'd keep them until you step up to some ID2000's some something in that area.

If the exchange ever gets decent again that's probably going to be my next major purchase.

I want something more smooth and linear so i started looking into high Z territory. I agree those high z injectors are extremely expensive. When you ready to buy them i may be able to help you with exchange rate because i'm getting low on CDN currency. I'll need it for my trip home.

Also, i exchanged AVID tuner series mounts (all four) with torque solutions mounts (roll stop and rear). I dislike the idea that AVID roll stop does not have threaded holes. I want something "direct fit" without the need to hunt for proper nuts bolts.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 02:08 am UTC

Really? I actually drilled out the treads of my stock front roll stop so I could use full nuts and bolts. To me it just feels stronger! That and I never have to worry about wearing out the threads. Easier to line up loose bolts when mountingvit aswell.

Really! The main purpose to buy was to save time. I doubt i will have threads wear problem anytime soon to worry about it. Also, unless you weld those nuts it's quite difficult to hold them in place with engine mount bracket over the roll stop.

If you can do it, good for you!
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 03:37 am UTC

Alex isn't the kind of guy to pull his motor on a yearly basis, so I don't foresee any issues with the holes wearing out. Can't say I've ever heard of someone ripping the threads out on these.
Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 05:15 am UTC

The first stock roll stop I used on this car was allready stripped. So I modded it for a nut and bolt. Since that point, I was paronoid so I put nuts on my second solid welded stock mount. And drilled the holes. I replaced that mount with a stock mount with an insert from a left over rear 1g Avid mount. That mount is still on the stock threads, but i dont like them. Might weld bolts pointing down to drop in the holes. Cause, ya its a bitch. Ive only pulled the motor once since I built the car... But Ive dropped the tranny twice and changed the mounts 3 times before I was happy with them.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 05:39 am UTC

Probably someone over tightened it would be my guess, I've had mine out, oh, 5 or so times, still on the stock mount and with 1.6 60' launches I haven't ripped it out yet.
Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 05:55 am UTC

Lol I'm actually with Jay on that. Upgrading nuts and bolts everywhere I can, I have. It's easy to sleeve a bolt and torque the nut. It's aligning the pointed end bolts to welded nuts that can be a pita. And that's where you can eff the threads.. It's what I think he's referring to. In particular, the timing side upper motor mount.
Posted By: Jason Drew

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 06:06 am UTC

No need to even remove the front roll stop from the cross member on a 2g, I usually just loosen it and leave it on the cross member, never any risk of alignment issues or the likes.
Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 06:28 am UTC

True. But we're talking about replacing it right? Although I completely understand where Alex is coming from in the sense that the ease of instalment is something a new or improved part should be able to do. Or at least come with new hardware.

Posted By: Jay Stacey

Re: Post your car pic page?. - December 19, 2015 01:13 pm UTC

They may have been over tightened by the original owner. There were several bolts that held on the front subframe parts that needed to be rethreaded for bigger bolts.

Thanks, it's something I just put together for the time being. The site is being professionally done and will have a different look in a month or so when I'll officially launch and announce it. It's coming together.

I have already bought an AWD Dyno and am currently working on getting a good machine to do REM ISF treatment on transmission parts.

I'm very close on securing a nice unit right now which is zoned for automotive work and they have no problem with me running the dyno all day if required.

Plan is to have a nice meet at the shop in early spring and plenty of Dyno days for the DSM folks this year.

You won't find cheaper dyno rates anywhere else in the GTA, and unlike the Dynapack (which takes forever to setup/hookup) this is a proper roller style dyno. Drive your vehicle onto it and we'll strap it down.

Reza, this is very good news for us all because Jack Transmissions quit DSMs! annoy You are the only person (most likely better than JT) that we can trust ours DSMs to! No more nightmares like Manny Sandhu went through! My stock trany holds fairly well (near 270k on it) but rebuild defiantly needed soon. My FP 68HTA will most likely kill it at 27+psi before spring arrives once again

Doing good so far mixing 91 with E85. My current mix is at 40% ethanol according to flex fuel sensor. My last log (ECMLINK) reported near 400hp using stock and E85 timing maps at 23 psi with zero knock. Recently i cranked it even more to about 25psi but don't yet have WOT log. It feels so damn fast compared to what i had before & still on EVO 3 16g. I actually worry about blowing up my stock 7 bolt lol

Here are few pics:

You're lucky to have such nice weather.

It's okay! DSM needs cold weather so you can crank it up to next level for next summer/boost season. Mine shines during cool Cali weather and goes to hibernation during extreme hot summer weather wink

Nope still rocking stock OEM fuel filter. Injector duty cycle at 25psi are above 70% with 40% ethanol mix. I doubt i have enough duty cycles to run pure E85.

Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 11, 2016 09:34 pm UTC

Just remember that those wheels are lugcentric as opposed to hubcentric and require the proper nuts for use.

If you need a set, I think I have them.
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 11, 2016 09:59 pm UTC

It's currently using the stock lugnuts I believe. I don't have anything fancy. DO you have pics of them? I was just planning to use these wheels for storage, but they've grown on me so maybe I will use them smile
Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 11, 2016 10:09 pm UTC

Actually come to think of it, my 1g has lugcentric nuts. They look like they center the bolt hole and use a flared flat washer midway up the nut.
Posted By: Lucian Marta

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 11, 2016 10:12 pm UTC

Yep that's how the 1G lug nuts are. So then I don't need anything!
Posted By: Mike Eng

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 11, 2016 10:39 pm UTC

Correct!

Other than tires as you mentioned.

The factory size tires used on those wheels are 215/50/17.

The rim dimensions are 17x6.5 +46 IIRC.

Might be helpful info when selecting a new set of rubber.

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 13, 2016 02:11 pm UTC

Yeah I wish the wheels were wider. The tires on there now are 215/40R17's, so it needs a little more sidewall. So thanks for the factory size Mike.

Alex, I know what you mean. I don't plan to ever change the brakes to anything larger so I'm golden smile being a 1993 it's the first year of the factory "big brakes" so I'm happy with them.

Cant wait to test them out, as the car finally runs now smile

Also have a set of 16x8 Kosei K1's with RA'1s for the track.
although I would like to stick with the 17's at the track to reduce sidewall roll, but the Kosei's are just so light!

You realize you could just run a smaller (sidewall) tire at the track, right? Not like it matters what your speedo says on the track - it's probably the most unimportant gauge there is when you're on a track. Keep in mind this would effectively change your kph/rev ratio so you'd want to make sure this would be okay with your tracking needs. (You'd basically shorten the gear ratios with a smaller OD tire; more accel but less range of speed in each gear).

That being said, car looks good! I like the Koseis.
Posted By: Jordan Kruger

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 14, 2016 02:53 pm UTC

Yep! I know I could by smaller tires. but when the Kosei's came with RA'1s on them, ill wear them out, then consider a new smaller R compound. smile

Figured that was the case. The extra half inch of sidewall on the 16's isn't really going to cause you significantly more (noticeable) sidewall flex on a tire like an RA1 so I wouldn't worry too much about it, especially if you're not an extremely experienced racer.
Posted By: Jordan Kruger

Re: Post your car pic page?. - January 14, 2016 03:52 pm UTC

Doesnt take an extremely experienced racer to find the limits of a tire. wink

Its going to take time to learn the car first anyway.

going from a mildly built 340awhp (mustang dyno) DSM,

to a caged 500+awhp DSM with a ton of suspension upgrades and brakes is quite the leap.

Ill play around with tires once I burn these up.

Ive driven fast DSM's (500+awhp). But it will be fun pushing this one as hard as I can at the track.

It takes an experienced racer to appreciate and be able to differentiate the nuances in a tire and to be able to predict and control how it will behave under any and all conditions...any idiot can find the limit if they turn the wheel hard enough wink tongue

I don't want to clutter up this thread but I'm interested in what you're doing suspension wise, assuming this is being done to your 1G since my 1G will eventually be track (road race) focused. Feel free to PM me to discuss your (planned) setup! smile

I did, it can spike quick to 30psi but gradually deeps down to 23.5 by a redline. During my tests, i found this turbo operates best at 22-24psi. There is no need to push for more because it just feels so unbalanced in power. Way too sensitive at low rpms and noticeable power drop towards the top end. Recently I tuned my wastegate to stay 68% open at around 3000rpm and gradually clime to 100% by 6000rpm. That way it actually feels linear and more powerful towards the top end.

Defiantly excited to swap to FP68HTA this year

Sadly if she's in the garage I'll barely have room for anything else, plus the wood floor....

Once I get it buttoned back up I'll look into storage in town.

Nick Lamoureux came down today from Ottawa to the Car Fever event at Napierville. It was HOT, ambient around 34-35, full sun.

My best run of the way was 11.3 @ 125, backed up by an 11.4 @ 123. 1.65 and 1.61 60's respectively.

I can see my intercooler is no longer up to the job. At the top of 4th in the afternoon my IAT sensor read a high of 156F

I had also ordered a larger meth nozzle but it didn't arrive in time.

Thanks Bryan! Been 6 years in the works haha, got to put a few thousand km on it last year but over the last 13 months I've made a lot of little changes that, hopefully, will make it run a lot better!
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 04, 2016 03:22 pm UTC

What kind of changes have you made?
Posted By: Carl Gould

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 04, 2016 03:26 pm UTC

The main changes are that I built a new engine harness, changed to a 24 tooth CAS disc, staged injectors (320cc primaries, 1450cc secondaries) instead of just the 1450s, water/methanol failsafe system, new AEM x-series UEGO (was using a prosport, what a piece of crap!), relocated my small battery back to the engine bay from the hatch, and lots of maintenance.
Posted By: Bryan Lawrence

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 04, 2016 03:32 pm UTC

What are you running for ECU? What difference does the CAS disk make? What's your fail safe setup, mine is setup so I can easily add it easily so just curious how yours is done. I am guessing you were having issues with idle so you did the staged setup?
Posted By: Carl Gould

Re: Post your car pic page?. - July 04, 2016 03:42 pm UTC

Running an AEM Series 2 EMS. The cas disc having 24 teeth instead of 4 gives a 6 times increase in timing resolution. This gives much better transient response, especially at idle with my cams (Crower 288/292).

Fail safe is the AEM failsafe gauge with flow meter, and I hope to have it triggering a boost dump and possibly ignition cut and/or fuel richening.

Staged setup was indeed for idle and also for cruise. With the 1450cc injectors, at idle my command pulse was half of the deadtime value. Previously I could get it to idle no lower than 1000rpm, and from my few minutes of testing so far I've been able to idle successfully at 750rpm.

There's a bunch of units owned by some man in an industrial part of the city that he rents out. Mostly all gear heads working on projects, and a few of my friends have units around me so it's a nice area. Get together and work on random stuff, screw around. It's right at the back of an extremely deserted dead end street so the privacy is good too.

It's nice to have for work and storage. Heated too so it's always nice year round inside, which is a bonus for storage of both cars and the bike. I don't think the Talon has seen anything under 0 degrees Celsius since 1995.

SB PP feels too weak for me and i'm afraid it will not hold launch control. It feels 10% lighter than ACT 2100 which is light already. I personally don't like soft clutch pedal. If i was doing it again i would use ACT 2600 PP with SB kevlar disk.

Regarding kevlar disk, it still chatters on low rpms (off the line 1st gear) but 3 times less than my last act 6 puck sprung disk so it's VERY streetable. Overall this disk is awesome, period! I still never yet tried ACT street disk so i cant compare to that.

It was probably warmer here last week than LA, it was 35ish on Sunday when I went to the track, way too hot for racing. Back down to around 15 now, so I'll probably go all out next weekend.

Here's a shot from Sunday, buy run in eliminations but I decided to get some data anyway, eased out of the hole for a 11.7 @ 129 on 32 psi.

It's just so they didn't get scratched up while stored; they will come off. Jason, I'm so doing the quick latch hood (pics looks great by the way, as always :p). Looks great, sleek and subtle. My aerocatch didn't last 2 winters on the 1g. The second one broke a week ago. Know a good place to buy the quick latch in Canada?

Congratulations on 10th year anniversary. Your DSM is always inspiring me to do more with mine. Trying hard not to be copycat haha....my roof is black btw
Speaking about anniversary, 12 years has passed since i handed over 5000 $ envelope with cash to a girl. (she was in her early 30s i think)
Just for me, she reduced price from 6500 to 5000 for TSi AWD with 137349 so i could afford it. (it was leaking coolant from water pump)
She made me the happiest person, is there anything better than owning broken sports car with a turbo and AWD drivetrain in early 20s?...and than fixing it yourself
Actually i was trying to find that girl Diana S from Whitby Ontario and share the story and also pay her back the difference but so far i was unable to frown

Here is the original photo from autotrader. Thats all i could i see from the catalog, but smaller blurry photo didn't matter because title did include TSi AWD

It's been a minute, haven't had a lot of time with the car this year with the passing of my father but I still went out and made the best of it. Came home with a few trophies, a wad of cash and sitting at 7th place out of a field of 35 cars in the Quebec SSPA, with one round left. As usual, the car made the 13h trip to Ohio and back, sadly we didn't have a huge Canadian presence but hopefully next year will be better.

Hopefully I did a few backyard DSM'ers proud.
