    Broke my rear passenger axel. Whats my options?

    The rear diff and axles are from a 1g, therefore 1g axles fit.

    My car in all its glory. Is this savable? (Rust)

    No, I mean mine is really bad too lol, but a better rusty shitbox then that car atleast. The gastank is held up with a ratchet strap and the rear subframe mount is pretty bad

    My car in all its glory. Is this savable? (Rust)

    That... that is about the worst I've seen. I'd take a look at the rear subframe mounting area, and fuel tank mounts, along with front subframe mounting area and wheel wells to see if there's anything structural. I don't think there's much saving that car, at all.I got a car sitting here...

    Car won’t start. Need help!!

    So if your tune is gone, that's also likely why the car doesn't run. Between SD not being setup , injectors not scaled correctly, etc.. it's not gonna run

    Check your shift linkage

    I have a set of brass ones from overseas in my 1g from dsmtuners, and a set of 3d printed from DSM3dcreations.com - much cheaper then the brass and work just as good IMO. And if you get the printed shifter stopper, it makes for a very clunky shift into gear. I likey.

    Car won’t start. Need help!!

    Once again, before actually seeing data, you're just throwing parts at the car. With data, you'll likely find something obvious.

    Car won’t start. Need help!!

    If the car is on speed density, I assume it's on ECMlink? Hook it up and check. I've seen more then once, the MAP sensor or wiring to it get finicky and the car will read 40psi or -30 when it's atmospheric and won't fuel correctly , or run at all.Look for any values that read way off...

    TD05 late spool

    I use something like this for testing for leaks. Having a 25+ gallon air compressor with an adjustable regulator helps. Soapy water and a stethoscope helps as well.

    TD05 late spool

    I would verify that there is no pre turbo exhaust leaks and do a boost leak test . And even though you say the wastegate seems shut, it may not be. Take the 2 wastegate actuator bolts off and make sure it is kind of tight. Add a few washers underneath the flange to keep tension or add on the...

    HotBits Suspension

    I own beefajita's car and hotbits, but the car currently has Feals on it. Never used the hotbits because of how tall they make the car sit. Without an adjustable lower shock body, you don't get a whole lot of range for playing with the ride height. Ideally looking for a beater GVR-4 to put...

    A/c system

    It is not. Compressor is for certain different, along with the line routing. On a VR-4, the A/C lines are both on the driver's side, DSM there is one line on each side.
  13. turbofonz

    No start/ hard start / IAT reading -40f , coolant temp reading -74f , boost reading 38psi.. sounds like running on 2 cylinders

    Is the car on speed density? Did you unplug the speed density harness? Did you bump the thermostat housing ? All those seem like sensors are unplugged.

    WTB OEM rear Differential (Stock with pump)

    I have a clean one at my mom's house. I think the front pinion seal was seeping. I'm sure the shipping won't be cheap but I'm not really looking to make money off of it, more so seeing it put to good use rather then be trashed.

    Shifter bushings?

    He sells them individually as well if you want to save money in spots. A guy on tuners makes 3d printed ones as well that work nicely.

    was hoping for about 350whp, got 260

    Stock head and cams shouldn't be an issue at that power level. 300whp on a 16g sized turbo with basic bolt ons is the norm. I'd think until mid 300's a bigger cam would start seeing gains. More boost certainly would help too.I can't remember the specifics, but I know with a supported evo3...

    The stock intake tube is a major restriction from what I've noticed personally. Replace that and it should wake it up.

    parking brake lever does literally nothing - replace cables?

    Check the rear calipers, they have a big spring on them - have someone pull the ebrake handle and see if the lever those attach to move at all - likely seized up by the sounds of it

    Front wheels off set

    An evo wheel can definitely tuck with some camber. Those 3000gt rotors are probably a little thicker then stock too, adding more offset.

    Rear Steering Hard line Part Numbers

    I believe I have most of the ones in mint condition, I can take pics for you. Also an incredibly clean rack as well. Not the lines that run front to back on the car, but whatever is in the rear of the car.

    What kind of Coilovers?

    I bought Feal 441's with Swift springs after reading how everyone says how good they ride, but honestly my Talon on Ksports rides MUCH better. Both cars at similar ride heights. My old galant on Ksports also was better. I almost regret them when other Taiwanese coils ride better for...600 less

    non-sunroof has sunroof?

    It was pretty common in the 80's and 90's to have sunroofs put in cars that didnt come with them. A dealer wouldn't have done this, it would have been done elsewhere. Basically, if the sunroof itself has a rubber seal, its factory, if around the hole in roof has a rubber seal, its not factory...

    Problem with blowby

    Check PCV.What's making you think there is so much blowby? The dipstick "seal" hardens up and can blow out on a normal healthy motor. Feel the rubber part at the top, it likely is dry and doesn't feel like rubber. That is what makes them pop out. I personally prefer 2g dipsticks anyways...

    WTB: OEM uncut key!

    That's bullshit. I had my work call (a car dealer), and I was able to get the keycode over the phone from them. You may have to go in person with your registration and IDMB543949 for Mitsubishi logo, MB852168 for blank. Looks like JNZ and STM sell them, along with ebay, etc.

    WTB: OEM uncut key!

    You can still get them from the dealer. I have one in the garage, I'll get the part number. Saving it for a new car though.
