I really need to sell these things because i have no where else to put them. $250 a month for storage is something I cant do at my current state. Majority of the items will have to be pick up only. The Sema show is going on this week... so if you know anyone driving in, that might be an option...

I tend to over analize things and this is one of them...As MOD approaches, I'm constantly going over the car to make sure it wont leave me and my son stranded on the side of the road. Can someone tell me if the injector gap normal? Should there evEn be a gap. My car was tuned last year by a...

Chris went out of his way to make the transaction happen. Instead of me driving 150 miles to pick up the rims, he met me halfway and didn't ask for anything extra. Nothing was sugar coated, rims were as described and I am very happy with them. I wouldn't hesitate to do business with him again...

Last minute(as always)...but I was hoping someone local has any of these parts. I will be working on the car all night to try and get it back on the road tomorrow. PM me on what you have and how much(fastest way as it goes straight to my phone). I'm in the Lombard/DG/Oakbrook area. Thanks ahead...

I recently purchase a ERL T3 exhaust manifold and I'm now undecided on what wastegate to use. I'm currenly on a DDP made T3 tubular manifold/HKS standard wastegate(old school) and boost is controlled via Profec B specII. I`m thinking of switching to either the old 38mm Tial or the new 38mm Tial...

Sorry about this being last minute...but I wanted to know if anyone local wanted to meet up at the Downers Grove Hooters for a mini meet. Figured it's been awhile since we had one and there alot of new members around the area. Would be nice to chill, drink, eat and do some bs-ing about our cars...

All the parts are still on the car until I decide whether to keep the wastegate or buy a new one. The manifold was on the car when I bought it from Doug Derby. I'm guessing he made it... I had it rewelded on a couple of the runners since it was not welded all the way around. The wastegate works...

I've researched all over the net and haven't found the best way to seal the plug. Anyone here ever had it leak and what type of sealant did you use? My buddy convinced me to buy the Permatex Ultra Black since that's what he uses at Nissan to seal plugs. I just want to make sure because I really...

Looking for a T3 manifold, preferable a cast. Not interested in a Treadstone or Turbonetics. ERL or DNP would fit the bill. Let me know what you have and the price you want for it. If you know anyone or have a lead to one, let me know also. As always, looking for people to respond with good a...

I've searched everywhere and can't seem to find a definite answer...My tuner set my idle at 1000rpm and i am seeing 12-13 degrees timing via Ecmlink. Should the timing be set at 5BTDC regardless if its at 800rpm or not? I've been having stalling issues coming to a stoplight ever since the...

Has anyone ever ran one of these gasket and retorqued them after xxx miles? Reason is, that I started to notice a slight oil leak coming from the front passenger side corner. Never did retorque the head down after my build becuase Cometic says that it's not neccessary. But after talking to a...

Is the port where the dummy light in the OFH filtered? The previous owner installed the oil feed line to the turbo from that port and I've been running it that way for 6k miles. Never had any problems,no shaft play(side/side or in/out) on the turbo wheel even after my rebuild. I was going to run...

Went with a Scirocco radiator and in need of one. I prefer local as I`m trying to get the car done by tomorrow.Thanks...

I've looked all over the forum and could not find what sealer to use for my oil pressure sender. It leaked a couple of years back and I got it to stop, but now it decided to mess with me again. I've tried teflon tape but it's not helping at all. I did read a couple of threads in different forums...

On my never ending quest to try and solve my civic radiator problem, I decided to try an add an air duct. I have 2 options on doing this and I need peoples opinion on what would be more beneficial.1. Having it curve up(almost like a quarter pipe) starting under the FMIC. The space between the...

I was wondering if any members here has had any problems with their vent circulation switch. I've noticed that once in a while my switch would move by itself especially when I'm going fast, like on a freeway. It will stay where I want it to when I'm cruising on low speed, but will change on me...

I don't even why I do it, maybe because I'm bored. But once I start...I can't stop!!!Metal is stainless steel and here's a pic of it halfway done. I had to take a smoke break after messing with it for 1 hr.Finally finished. Not a show winner, but it will do.Engine bay is getting there...

I recently had my car tuned by Devin from Boostin Performance and was more than happy with the results. I was a bit sketchy at first in having someone that I don’t know tune my car, but after I had spoken with him a couple times on the phone and at his shop…I was sold.Just to let you guys...

Anyone ever run a 2gmas and hook up a ait sensor post intercooler(near throttlebody)? I figured that it would get a more accurate temp reading after the ic rather than the heat soak air coming in from the filter.

I was doing a boost leaks test and found some air leaking from my turbo. Anybody have the same problem and found a solution for it? It didn't have a gasket around it so I'm leaning towards putting some sort of sealant. The problem is that I know it gets super hot and it might melt. I was...

The car has been down since 11/10 and I finally got her started yesterday with the help of a local DSMer. I'm new to the world of Link so I needed some guidance and extra pair of eyes(thanks Gamble). The car still has some work such as leaky oil return line, bumper has to be put back on, some...

I finally got some of my parts in and tools I needed to do my final build. I figure I might as well post pics of my work in progress.4/30- Installed new lifters with the special tool, which was well worth the $30 I spent.Installed a new freeze plug after doing the RRE...

How long can you soak them in diesel fuel? I wanted to do it tonight so that I can install them tomorrow. I`m expecting the lifter tool I ordered to arrive sometime tomorrow, but since I didn't get a tracking number, I have no clue if there's a delay. My problem is, that I don't know if it's a...

Does anyone know what size bolts go into the holes circled red? I forgot all about them and I already installed the runner and spacer. I tried m8x1.25 which was too big and m6 was too small.

I just purchased some brand new ITM lifters from fleabay. Are they suppose to be hard to push in before bleeding them?

Just curious which ones you guys use. The OEM price is not bad but I would need 2 for my FRH. I've seen some cheaper price ones(Beck/Arnley, Felpro) that go for $7-$9. Not sure what the difference are, but if they seal the same, I'll be going with the cheaper priced ones.

I promised myself that I wasn't going to spend anymore money on this car...I was suppose to only change my radiator to a civic style, but I started to tear things apart. I bought a FRH manifold, rerouting the IC pipes, and lifters. Now, I'm about to order DSMlink and new injectors. The problem...

I know that people have the cast elbow welded on, but has anyone ever use the 90 degree silicone reducer? Any problems with it melting?

Nothing wrong with any of these items, I'm contemplating on going with a different setup to take full advantage of my motor and turbo.Delphi 680cc 2g Mas(unhacked) SAFC 2/includes bracket(looks brand spanking new w/film still on it) DataloggerWill sell as a bundle for $450.Will...

Bare with me fellas as I have no clue how to read a compressor map. But if you guys are willing to explain, I`m willing to learn.I finally got the time to pull off the compressor housing on my Turbonetics turbo. What I got so far from doing a little research, I would guess it's a TO4E 60...

I just got finished polishing the plenum of my FRH. Now, I`m hesitant on doing the runners because of how all the areas I can't get to. What type of sander are you guys using for those hard to reach areas? Here`s a pic of the plenum. Not the best looking, but it'll do.

Fast shipping and great guy to deal with. Did an awesome job with the ported head on my car and the intake manifold I just picked up from him is the icing on the cake!!!

I found a pretty good deal on Evo 8 stock valves/springs and retainers. My question is...are they all beehive(from what I hear) and how many miles should be on them for me to turn and walk away? I will be purchasing some cams(don't know which ones yet) for my winter make over and I just want to...

I`m getting ready to store the car for winter and start taking off parts for a makeover. With that being said, the radiator is still in the car for a couple of more weeks or until someone wants to buy it. I`m going with a Civic style radiator to free up some space for my future IC piping.In...

I`m looking to change my muffler over the cold season as the one I have on is too mild for my taste. I've been searching everywhere for a ATR pitbull muffler but can't seem to find anyone that carries them. They were big back then and a lot of companies had them in stock. Anyone got any leads?

I have KYB AGX with stock springs all around.Whenever I hot a bump, I can hear a clunking sound in the front. I`ve looked everywhere to make sure nothing is broken or anything loose but no results. Downpipe is not the problem. Anyone have the same problem? I can take pictures of my set up if...

Before anyone jumps the gun...I searched and didn't find the specific answer I was looking for.I'm thinking of running a Civic radiator to clear up space in the bay. Problem is that I still have the ac intact and removing it is not an option. I don't plan on using it but it's there for the...

It was just a matter of time until I got caught. Well, that time was today. I usually drive with my windows down, but it was a little chilly out and I was feeling a little sick. So I had my passenger window up and my driver side down because I was smoking(sick+smoke=more sick ). I was stuck at a...

While taking off the vacuum line, I found small amount of fuel dribbling out. Not a lot, but tear drop size every couple of seconds. I was wondering if anyone ever had the same problem or is it normal. It`s a Fuel Lab 515.

I just recently fixed my high idle issue by cleaning out the t-body and replacing the seals. I need some input on my recently log(car parked and revved the motor). I want to make sure that my TPS, ISC, Timing, etc are where they are suppose to be. Thanks...

Does anyone know if there is a plastic washer that is inside where the TPS or the spring is located? I redid the seals on my t-body over the weekend and found a small plastic washer on the table. I didn't know where it came from, so I placed it in the TPS side of the shaft. In order...plastic...

I finally got around to registering the car and is now up and running. 5yrs is a very long time. I`ve been driving it around for the past week to put some miles on her so I can finally get a tune. Now, I find out that I have a boost leak. Is there anyone local that can help me do a boost leak...

I have a working condition 2g mas that I bought a couple of months ago. I thought the 2g mas on my car went bad but it turned out to be a loose wire connection. Nothing wrong with this one has I tested it on my car to see if it works.$60 shipped USPS 2-3day to 48 states.

So here it is...another problem comes up right after I thought I`m almost done with the car. I`m getting fed up with fixing the po hack jobs and I`m afraid if I don't resolved soon, I might end up just selling the car as is.The car was miss-firing bad and we traced it back to one of the coils...

I`ve been struggling for awhile now to keep my car alive after letting the throttle go after a high rev. At times only up to 3k. I`ve checked and tested the TPS and ISC and they all seem to be in good working order. I`ve adjusted the throttle cable so that it`s not tight and have a little slack...

I was wondering what kind of oil filter relocation kit that you guys recommend. Here's a couple from summit . And here's a cheaper priced one from JC Whitney . Any others that you guys are running? Also, are there any difference in the years that I should buy? I know my 92TSI had a smaller...

Can anyone tell me the benefit of the wastegate being run off by the collector or where all the runners meet. These are pics of my current setup. I took the manifold off because the welds where poorly done and it started to crack. One of the runners actually had a weld stop about 1/2" before it...

I recently replaced my 2gmas with another one because it was throwing the barometric code(25). I was hoping that it would fix it, but I guess not. I went ahead and pulled my ECU out to see if there was anything going on in there, but everything seems to look ok. I took some pics for you guys to...
