I already list it and sold one to a 3G chap. this was based on someone showing me their shock pin which match and that's why i said about i wonder when they swapped over. if they adjusted it in 2001 then they may not work so i will have to check into this more now and possibly remove them from...
i made mine from alloy steel so 4340 EN24T, super strong. i did external threads vs internal for more strength and the fact the seize inside over time and snap so i revised the design to be my specification
I have a customer with a 3G set i think he said he bought them for and not heard back from it since. if they changed it i wonder when from? they did not need any more taper strength.
I had slight touching on my tire once, This was when I was messing with shock heights and setting up the bump stop with dual springs. This made my lower spring perch lower THUS wider at that point and it would rub slightly if my camber was a lot. I had to redo the setup anyway as i changed some...
Now I have woken up and read it again your specs are going to alter the wheels and setup. So the NEW wheel specs 11" are going to be 6.3mm closer to the shock vs the old 10.5" wheel. Also stick out 6.3mm aka poke. So rubbing is mostly going to be part of the setup choice. Looking at the...
So i took specs from both AWD and FWD as I have both knuckles. Both later deeper GB version and both were the same. I have not spec'd the early ones so those knuckles.My version uses an external thread so depending on the amount you need to push the shock out by and the width of the shock...
I have one 1G unit ready made to go! In raw finish it can be packed and shipped with in 2 days.Black costing can be added but delays a few days for the process.Avoid the 2-3 week wait times normally had with order them as they are made to order.
Based on other units out there from oem chassis im not expecting anything to wear out. I did make some solid mounts vs the alloy mounts that slip in as those were not able to take the extra force qnd wobbled so those went and is not solidly mounted
Just a general video walk and talk through on how I tackled my EPAS conversion.Bit of measuring and welding and was all set to go. Its not hard to do but you need to take your time and measure everything perfectly good!
Brass is quite safe in alloys. Its what mitsu use for the thermo stat ends on the temp controlled OFH's. Its alloy on alloy that needs protecting. Always use anodized and if it helps and available some antiseize. But i use brass and alloy on aluminum, zero issues ever here.
If i use stainless...
I saw this not long ago! shocking bad news, I know they don't think he will wake up but hang in there! people have come out of worse so we ALL hope he can wake up from this and get back to what he loves to do.
Hey all.Looking for one 1G AWD who is restoring or have restored their chassis using as many OEM parts as possible! Including using the factory rear arms. Must be a complete oem arm set both lower and upper!!! Wont accept 1 or the other, so 1 complete car setWhat I am after is you to seam...
No not this year. I am looking to go to billet on these but not had time to get around to this all yet. Its likely going to be next year but dont exactly know when right now
Whats the concern with running it above? Your not pulling weight from the cross bar. The engine mounts will be taking 99% of that stress and spreading it across the rest of the engine mounts. so bolting from above is not a problem.The only issue from above is removal as you got to think about...
😍😍😍 Some more 1G DSM (AWD only) parts development updates. Coming in with these at a different angle then normal. But great to keep oem parts aliveYou asked and I am delivering... as promisedMoving forward with how some of the Chassis are being restored people may find themselves torn...
Alot have changed to the sce cutring gasket. Its a composite and o ring thats crushable. People seem to like it as a next step for more power and boost.
How was fuel pressure? Did it rise 1:1 ok and was setup properly? Without a log we will just guess and as your were still fresh on that tune you best be logging till you was 100% sure and happy it all looks good for some time.So what went wrong with the oil pressure? How old was that pump and...
When was the last time it was servcied or cleaned? Its possible its past due and needs a refresh/clean. Bit while you are there perhaps open the valve body and clean it all out check the balls have not damaged anything and leaking pressure, solenoids most likely are clogged with grit as they...
1k does seem very expensive. I have not read up on "SAID" tool but it must be able to be used on multiple sized cups right? its a basic tool but i guess the market was empty and someone jumped in but they will sell them, i don't get the world sometimes but it happens haha
When i refreshed my auto axles and cv boots, the pry ar worked well. When the passender side got a bit stuck i put a flate blade screwdriver in betweek the cross shaft on the diff and tapped it out, that made life a breeze.I know a tools can help but 3 times i have had them out and been fine...
2G DSM video walkthrough is hereThis will talk you through STEP by STEP on the process. you won't have to guess with this video as it lists every detail you need to fully restore your 2G Drip Rails to perfect condition once again. This is for the replacement of the Coupe and the Spyder.
Coupe...
As things get old subframes move and shift. Its the best option to always get camber bolts in any chassis. You will never rid of old cars that camber oddly. So you counter act it with self adjustment. Any McPherson shocks i always add camber bolts. Its the only way around things. Springs weaken...
Have to reply in english. Only some will understand but everyone will understand english. Please convert it and edit it for english please for us to read easily.
Just to renew this and to post as some have asked for it in this thread.But DRIP rails for the 2G are now available with a new refurb kit. Check the link for details. https://www.dsmtuners.com/marketplace/new-product-2g-dsm-drip-rail-replacement-molding-diy-kit-active.6328/
So as Most of you know my 1G parts have been lacking and I have tried to make some more but this one has pushed the boat out and you will REALLY like this one.
By now you know me to not do things in halves or cut corners so when I do something it's full on and everything I got you get PERIOD...
The part number crosses over to the 4X4 chassis, they really do cross over, that was me searching for a few mins BTW. Pajaro, Montero and Shogun all use the same sensor
If plugging it removes the sensor then leaving it in place and un plugging it surely does the same thing does it not. Free plug and as simple as disconnecting the connector.
Big brake kits come in various options from price to size and calipers. Could be a kit from another chassis or a custom part / aftermarket, so a budget is ideally needed to be known. Kits can be pieced together for about 400+ other kits will be more so depends on alot of factors but 99% its budget.
Wowsers! How did they manage that one! Well at least we know they are getting the rebuild cost now. Sucks as you rely on these builders to be great at their jobs
Hi everyone I thought I would do a dedicated pad selection article to cover as much of the compounds as possible rather then clog up the sale post. this should offer me more space to add them as I find them with part numbers and links if available.
While I have done my best to confirm all info...
I got my friend who i am restoring his original Talon to get this kit! it is a fab kit and well worth every penny! a must have for anyone that wants a nice modern pedal feel once again
This is exactly how i did mine. It works amazingly well, i was told the rear extractor was to small but seems to work as planned thankfully. I did open the front upper part by the upper opening of the bumper a bit also to get some cooler air in the upper part above the initial duct that any air...
