I’m soo excited to see this car be brought back to life! I ran into more financial difficulties and had to let my 2g gsx go. I no longer own a DSM after owning one consecutively for over 15 years with a total of at least 40 dsms owned. Good luck to you and your son! Keep the dsm dream alive!
Dang I had some new OEM pistons I could’ve thrown in when you bought my Galant lol. Also, use coffee filters to clean up the walls as they don’t leave any debris behind. Build is looking great!!!
I would’ve bought an aftermarket pan for $65. Probably would’ve been a lot cheaper but can’t wait to see the results! Check out NexxRacing on Facebook for a guy that makes a new style gasket that doesn’t leak- see attached. Glad to see the car coming along!
It’s more than likely a boost leak or bad ISC motor. Start with boost leak testing your car then testing/replacing your ISC motor. Usually when the ISC goes, it takes out the ISC driver on your ECU so you may need to pull the ECU and check for damage if problems persist.
Based on what you’ve said so far, I’m guessing you went to a parts store and just asked for spark plugs.
I’d recommend getting a set of NGK BR6ES spark plugs, gap them to .028” starting out, and set of blue NGK spark plug wires and go from there.
Make sure you gap your spark plugs before...

I understand that but look at the screenshots.
It has the 2 parts shipping from different locations(Centric brand), but if I add a 3rd part(Carlson brand), it moves the 2 original Centric brand parts shipping from 2 locations to shipping from the same location.
This is 100% just a way to get a...
Hey RockAuto, why are you scamming people out of shipping? The parts will magically ship together if I add a part I don't need, but as soon as I remove it, they ship from separate locations again. What's the deal?!

I'm going to show you how to hard-wire your SD kit and Flex Fuel sensors instead of using an adapter harness for those either redoing their engine harness or you simply don't have the funds for the adapter harness.There was very little information on MAF wiring that I could find but maybe I...
Here I'm going to show you how to upgrade your fuel pump housing feed line to -8an and your return to -6an and install an Evo fuel siphon in your 2g DSM.Why would you want to install the evo siphon?
1: You're upgrading your return line with a bulkhead which will eliminate the hardline that...
I’m upgrading my -6an feed, oem return to a -8/-6 setup.
I installed a -8an and -6an bulkhead which is why I’m installing an Evo siphon since I can’t use the dsm o ring siphon.
I had my dsm siphon drilled To 1/8” I believe with a Walbro 450 and fuel pressure was good on my hx35 93 pump 30psi...

Here I'm going to show you have to depower your steering rack or convert it to a manual rack.
I did a lot of research, looking at every tuners thread, Facebook, YouTube, etc and the information is very scattered and no one has a complete thread that's easy to follow with good pictures so I've...
I planned on it although I don’t see the point.
If you leave the seals on then there shouldn’t be any weak points and should support it like oem.
If someone can give a reason for it, I’d love to know.
I ended up putting the broke pin in it and spinning it around which pushed the piece that was broken in it out finally. I hope to have the tech article up this week.
So I’m in the process of making a very in-depth tech article on depowering a 2g steering rack to post and ran into an issue.
When removing the retaining pin, it looks like only half of it came out but I’ve rotated it and don’t see any piece of the pin left and yet it won’t release.
Here is a...
And I’m running an hx35 on 30psi and don’t get full boost til almost 5k. You’re going to have lag with a turbo that big. If you want it to be more responsive, switch to a twin scroll setup or get a smaller turbo.
Going to a full exhaust isn’t going to cause gains. It sounds to me like you don’t know much about the car but if the turbo is as big as you say it is, 12psi is barely enough to spin the turbo so of course it’s going to be laggy. Fully built is a very vague term that’s different from person to...

I accidentally cut off my siphon hard line instead of the return line when attempting to upgrade to a -6an return.

Yes, original paint. The inside looks great, I’ve just got a little fading on wing and side skirts but I’m going to have those painted soon.I’m painting most of the interior trim black to match a little better. I thought about doing sound deadening but not sure yet.I had to clean one of...
Just thought I’d post some pics of my GSX that I keep digging deeper and deeper into.
Does anyone else get this OCD when cleaning?
Also wouldn’t mind suggestions for paint protectant, mainly for the hatch channels where water runs down.
Ignore my wiring as I’m redoing a lot of the harness and...
Have you tested the voltage with a multimeter when the car is running to see if it’s charging your battery?
I would start with that and if it’s not charging, check the alt fuse again.
Most battery relocations on our cars people run 2 power wires, a 0 or 2/0 to the distribution block and a...
