Mike made 1088 on 44lbs, and runs it up higher on the track. He's been an 8.80 @ 164 I think. Not sure on kevins power, but he's been 8.20s in the fwd, so id say its pretty high also. Probably a lil lower with the auto tho. Pretty sure kevin even runs the perma with regular arp studs also.

What headstuds with the felpro? Just saw where you were getting a1s, and thought you might have been using standards. I know Kevin and Mike both have good luck with them is the reason I was asking. This is the first thing I've ever really heard bad about them. Mike blew both kinds of sce...

It seems like more trouble than its worth. Why the 2g tranny? I know most do it for the billet verter, but even still think the 1g would be a better option. My friend has a 2g auto swap in his gilly and it was a lot of trouble. He lives in cali and fftec did the swap for him, so I'm just...

What didn't you you like about the fel pro? Also, what heads studs with the felpro? Just asking because lots of high power people use the fel pro, and I don't recall anybody really using a copper. Most dsm people actually dislike copper.Either way, super sick build. The front end work...

I'm pretty sure window weld is way to hard. I've been using 100% silicone for 12 years now on countless dsms and has always worked great. I without a doubt could see how window weld wouldn't work. if they are wore and sagging I always try to center them or take them off to fill. Don't want...

That thing is sweet. Jeremy Aberham use to run it on his dsm back in the day. I always wanted one, but the price always steered me clear. Very nice find.

Id list the right part numbers anyways, just for search reference.

Thanks for all the replies. Im going to get them to cut me one more, then ill start working with that one. Ill pick up some graphite powder also while im out. Thanks again.

Im confused here. Tce has the rear upgrade, so why does everybody say nobody has one. Its even linked in this thread. I think there was someone else also. I think it was brake man or something of that nature. Think he made full kits also. I remember him having some of the lightest and...

Well I went back out and tried it again. Somebody told me to try it both ways, so I gave it a shot. I tried the ignition first both ways, driver door lock both ways, and then the trunk lock both ways with nothing. I for some reason then went back to the ignition just for the hell of it. It...

The car was bone stock when I got it. Original key fob and all. I dont think all locks and ignition have been changed. I think its because the dealer cut it just like ace hardware would cut it. Its just an oem key, with a normal average cutting. Ive never had good luck with cut keys. They...

I somehow managed to lose my only key for the vr4 while it was down. Im back to working on it now, and cant get it pushed outside to spray off for the wheel being cut and locked. I searched around and found you could buy them new from the dealer. Well I picked one up today, for it to only...

Also, that should be able to be had for under 500 for sure. Make sure you tell them it will only need minimal masking, wax and grease removed, tacked, and sprayed. Even with them doing most of the work, pretty sure its still under 500 around here.

Ive worked in a body shop my whole life, and the car is not that bad. If you did all the body work, prep work, and after paint finishing it should be fine. Just do all the body work and paint prep. If you want it as nice as possible, id put my first line of masking tape on, just leave the...

I originally thought the rs gear boxes were the same as the evo III also, but I think after talking with John that I learned different. Im pretty sure the gears go as follows.Gvr4rs evoIII 1st 2.571 2.750 2nd 1.600 1.684 3rd 1.160 1.160...

Got my stuff same week. Would do business again. Thanks.

Good guy. Said he wanted and paid right off. Would do business again.

Awesome guy! Hes helped me out more than anybody on this board. He even went yard hopping to find stuff I needed he didnt have. He found almost everything I needed, and didnt hardly charge anything. He shipped the stuff fast, and helped me a ton. Really good guy!

Thanks for the part # on the 4ws decal. I know I could have some vinyl made, but dont really wont decals or vinyl. I guess I just prefer the real mitsu thing. I also dont want to scrape the other one off. I like it looking totally stock. It has all factory mitsu glass, and I just like the...

I bought a 2g mas from him with super quick shipping. It was packaged nice and was at my door in 2 days i think. I would do business with him again. Thanks!

I was taking the tint off my car and messed up the sticker on the driver front window. Its the buckle up safety first sticker. I know most people wouldnt care, but im anal about stuff like this. I was wondering if anybody might know where i could pick one up at. Its driving me crazy only one...

27 now, got the vr4 when i was 25. Ive had my 1g since i was 22.

also, not all jdm trannys have the same final drive as the usdm trannys. one of the three you could get comes with a 5.38 final drive. if you have the wrong final drive, it will cash your viscous coupling out. it might also do other damage in the tranny. just a thought.

i was trying to put it in simple terms. so its because the exhaust can not flow out he wastegate huh? well i wonder if its because its to easy for it to flow out the turbine hole instead. yep, i believe so. when you have backpressure, its easier for it to come out the wastegate hole. meaning...

a supra pump will fit right in. the 255 fits with just some minor mods.

ok, before i ever posted the links, i tried to explain what it was. actually my first post was trying to explain. then i was told that was not right. so i try to post some links of someone you might believe. i was trying to explain it had nothing to do with turbo size, like you said. i also...

for those of you that think exhaust size has nothing to do with boost creep, this came straight from ddynopower.com on the exhaust page. If a FULL 3 inch exhaust system is used, in most cases, to control the boost level, an external wastegate is needed. Keep that in mind when getting a 3...

i think a few people had the wrong idea completly. thats why other people kept bringing it back up.

i guess nobody wanted to take my word for what boost creep is. im glad some people think the same way i do.

boost creep is caused by the exhaust outflowing the wastegate. like as in its easier for the exhaust gas to flow out the turbine exit hole and into the downpipe, instead of some flowing out the wastegate hole. it all just wants to flow out where its easiest to get out.(3in downpipe would be...
