This is the Build Thread for '91 3000GT VR4 "Marlene". Reply below.

Looking to get a feel for a potential product I would like to start creating for the DSM Community, of course, this would extend to other modules as well but it is all dependent on what the community wants/needs.With that said, I have designed a DRL/Flasher module that will accept LED lights...

For those who are electrical engineers or know something about PCB mounted electronics... please take a look at the below schematic and let me know where I need to make modifications to make it work properly. I have already run online simulations for the individual circuits but the platform I am...

Below are some pictures of everything I have that has been removed from one of my GSXs, I also have a complete GSX that I'm considering parting out so I can possibly build it up from scratch as well - if you need anything from that let me know and I will see what I can do (1996 GSX). Anyways...

Moonlight GSX submitted a new DSM Profile :'96 GSX 650AWHP - 93/95 OctaneRead more about this vehicle here...

Moonlight GSX submitted a new DSM Profile :RikkaRead more about this vehicle here...

Alright so what I've determined is that coils 1 & 4 are somehow connected to the VSS plug, with that being said I'm trying to run a completely different ignition system that runs without a PTU and has "individual" PTUs (my ignition coil setup) built in them. Well with that first sentence here's...

I saw a thread that mentioned that the A/T and M/T rear differentials shouldn't be crossed between each other... after reading up more in the thread I came across the 3 letter names for each and now have cause for concern.My car makes a "locking" sound on the rear axle anytime I go into...

As my topic states I'm currently having a problem with some "over-crowding" of my positive battery terminal, I was thinking of running a power distro box (1/0 in and 8GA out, 2:5) from the battery to supply power to my ignition coils (custom job - using 40 DPST relay to run AEM HO IGBT Smart...

So far I've gathered the following information:1. When installing a black top CAS (1G CAS) in a '95-'96 the signal is combined rather than separated (CAS/CPS).2. The signal from the 1G CAS is inverted when sent to the ECU.3. According to RRE the pins at the ECU must be swapped to...

I'm trying to figure out the wire gauge size for the switched +12V from the ignition switch. Reason being is I'm running into current problems with my wiring harness that I'm building for a set of individual coils that run roughly 7.8A draw each (if Ip/103mA = 71/1, Ip=7.8A). Problem is 16 AWG...

It would seem that no one here has ever used the high output inductive coils made by AEM. Is there a reason why? The only problem I could see from these would be trying to get the original signal from ECU to all 4 coils as they are individually connected meaning you'd need 4. But with that being...

Well as the title states this is the road to producing a car that will be come the most awesome weekend warrior my money can buy, yes that means it'll take some time as I'm broke. Anyways this isn't about me it's about the car well right now the only thing in the works is the engine and...

Instead of mixing the 6-bolt and 7-bolt head/block I'm using all 7-bolt parts, and as you know the CAS for the 7-bolt (95-96) has it under the cam gears. My problem is that I plan to have adjustable cam gears but the cam gears obviously get in the way (hence the design of the stock ones)...

So I've been reading on the recent activity of those in the KC area, by any chance you guys want to have a meet/burger burn during the weekend of the 15th of June? I'm kicking it at a friend's house so I can't hold it at "my" place but if anyone wants to meet up somewhere do just kick it, I'm...

Hey guys, I can look everywhere else but I think it'd be best to ask those within the state in which I'll be having the car inspected.What would the chances of me failing emissions testing if I removed the EGR (blocked off)? I'm thinking of getting a different intake manifold (possibly) but...

Been looking and most of it makes sense but I'm just curious as to how I should setup the GT4088R oil feed. I know I'll need an oil restriction and filter as it's ball bearing but I'm just making sure I make the purchase ONCE and only do maintenance and repairs.So the question is, what...

Anyone know of the dimensions of a 7-bolt short block? Along with that, what is the weight of this block completely bare/stripped of everything? I've checked the most recent thread on this but it's requesting the long block and has a few short block measures in there but loaded - I just want...

I read through some older threads and my own recent thread about making up to 800awhp. For the most power, but street capabilities, the GT4088R seems to be my sweet spot for power, torque, and awesome power-band. The only problem I'm running into is fitting capabilities as I've also read this...

Anyone in the KC area making 700-800whp? Just curious... :hellyeah:I'm making this my "new goal" and wanted to know if I'd be alone in the KC area.

After reading up on a few old threads, I understand that our stock fuel rails can handle a bit which is one less thing I'll need to purchase. I've also read that -6 AN send and return lines are perfect (or unless I read wrong) for 650whp, which is also fine. But the problem/confusion that I'm...

Hey guys, I've got a question for you all. If I were to start a tuning shop in the KC area that had decent pricing, dynos, modifcations and so on would you go there? I'm thinking of starting my own garage/tuning shop and wanted to know if I'd get the support of DSMers and any other car from the...

So, what is the clumsiest thing you've done in, on or around your DSM (or any other car for that matter)? It can range from forgetting out of your car with the seat belt still on or something random... what have you done? ROFL

Alright, let's hear it... what would be something you probably shouldn't say to a cop just after being pulled over? Use your imagination on this one... I want to see some of the ones you come up with.

I've read on different fuel systems... but my question is length between the fuel rail and tank on both ends - send and return (through fuel filter and regulator). I'm thinking of rocking -6 AN fuel lines but to use the Russell ProClassic braided lines that shouldn't be as heavy/painful as the...

I know what I'm getting myself into and I'm sure someone might/will mention something about either the 6-bolt or later 7-bolt with the thrust bearing (97-99), but that's not what I'm going to do.What I would like to ask is everyone's opinion on the following items on a full engine build...

Everyone seems to be tried and true about the 6 bolt engine, I personally have faith in my 7 bolt not to mention I figure if the engine is taken care of and properly built it'll have a small chance of failing right? Well maybe a low chance of about 10-15% (guessing). Anyways here's the plan and...

Apparently the 3065 is a sweet deal but what about the 3582? Would it be better suited to run the 3582 for achieving 600 whp opposed to the 3065? I've done nothing but math and math on this and it's getting me no where other than just match-crunching headaches....:banghead:

Alright I've looked everywhere else on the site and I want to know the likelyhood of something going wrong, like the rest of my car come to give me. Anyways, here's the situation: I'm changing out my knuckles/A-arms out with ones that have the 130mm caliper gap that is used for the Evo VIII...

So... being in England isn't exactly the best place to plan the rebuild and construction of a DSM as there aren't many over here, if at all. What makes this even worse is that I'm having my car shipped to me so my thing is, who will be around when I return? DSM won't die in KC will it? Doubt it...

I know FP, SBR, ERL and Turbonetics have cast manifolds ranging from T3/T4 to DSM standard... my question is would anyone know of a place that might actually custom fabricate a cast manifold that won't crack but meets the request of what I'm looking for? Just curious, I feel that this may be a...

Alright, so DSM Graveyard has this Manely rebuild kit that seems to be a fair price, are there cheaper solutions to a quality build that could compare to this? At the moment I'm trying to reach a range of 450whp to 500whp but with a solid bottom end, in addition to trying to possibly reach...

I was wondering about the 97-99 GSX M/T engine harnesses, will they work on a 95-96 GSX? For some reason the interior harness, located under the dashboard doesn't match up, well at least with my SRS Diagnostic box. I would like to replace both (engine and the one under the dash), any takes?

After looking through the forums I didn't, again, find exactly what I was looking for. Related to the rear differential, is it supposed to actually make a "locking or knocking" sound when going into reverse? Or even when shifting in 1st-5th? It's almost as if the transfer case is "free flying"...

I have not found anything related to this subject...After hours, or even up to days and weeks, of searching the forums I was wondering if anyone knows of a FULL schematic that I may use to possibly "re-wire" my interior and engine wiring harnesses. By means of "full" I mean with pin locations...

Of all the turn signal threads I have read none of them have cleared up what exactly I'm looking for, and what I'm looking for is this:Before I swapped my interior wiring harness, located under the dash, I had a signaling problem similar to that of everyone else. When I swapped it out with...

Anyone looking to snag some parts off a 1995 GSX? I need this gone as fast as possible but I've got to get back to the UK next week and won't be around to handle the car until I send the title back so it can be scrapped. Let me know if you want anything off it - some money would be nice. The...

As it states, anyone in the Blue Springs area that has a DSM?Independence, Lee's Summit, Lake Lotawana... you know the deal. Where's everyone at?

Should I do it? Or sell it? I want to keep them but I've been told "otherwise."

Unlike the others I've read, there turn signals or hazards not work, mine unfortunately work but they all work as hazards rather than just normal turn signals. In addition, the back lighting on my gauge cluster tends to flash as well as if something is crossed somewhere. The flasher box has been...

Does anyone have a 95' or 96' GSX/GST engine wiring harness they are selling? I can't seem to find any as it seems they are few and far in between... if someone hasn't already gotten it. Anyways, let me know if you have one I may need one - still checking up on the status of mine. :cry:
