FPR and old school that bia!

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

I don't want a stand alone, and link is a much more expensive route than flash.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

safc is not stand alone... its piggy back...............
.......
.......
wow

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Lol!!!

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Bitch, you knew what I meant.

Also, I'm curious as to why someone who isn't interested in something is expected to give a damn about what the terminology is for it. Piggy back, standalone, I couldn't give a flying fuck what it's called, I'm not going to use one. I want to do ECU-based tuning because of the flexibility it provides in mapping.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Did you mean piggyback? because you clearly said stand alone.

Get dsmlink

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

People bought link because there was no other option for 2gs. It seems like almost all of the 98/99 ecus are able to use EcuFlash.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Somehow I knew you would come back with something. Spaz, just stop making excuses for why you only have a 170hp car and admit that its because you are afraid of what turning a knob will do. Your in the DSM world buddy. Blow something up.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

LOL..

RLFebo and CMspaz are definitly going to go at it at the dyno day.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

I gave my 99 ECU away years ago. Now it's actually useable for something...

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Im game, I dunno if spaz is, he might not have his plastic case ECU by then.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Watch out for his rubber fist attack then.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

LOL!!

be sure to watch your back on the dyno day, its will be a danger zone once he gets there.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Ill be sure to leave my assless chaps at home that day.

Re: Does Emily like teh Spazsicle?
 

Maybe shes into the "Space Dock"? *shrug*

(First definition on UD)

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Yeah, blowing up my DD, that's a wonderful idea. I wonder why I never considered it before?

Oh, right, maybe because I'd have to sell it and buy a $500 shitbox Honda if I do, because that's likely all I'd be able to get for it from a salvage yard, considering that would be my only option in the short period of time I'd need to replace it in. That's a loss of of about $6500 at that point, and over only 8 months. So no, I'm not going to risk blowing anything up.

And why the fuck is my car everyone else's concern? It's mine, not yours, I'll do what the fuck I want with it, whenever the fuck I want to do it.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Better not drive it if you don't want to risk blowing it up! :lol:

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

I second that motion. I mean you may as well buy that shitbox honda now and get it over with. I dont think there are too many people on these boards who only have a DSM as a DD.

Oh and let it be noted that spaz still hasnt accepted a call out. My Starion vs His TSi AWD

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Maybe because I'm not going to?

I'll concede that you'll win right now, because there's little chance that things will get done before the dyno day.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Epic weak....

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

I do, for the most part I did things the right way and have a reliable car that is pretty fast. Only time my car has really let me down was with the stock headbolts and 21psi, blew the headgasket, but I was asking for it.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Everyone harasses you about it because if you run into some car on the freeway that wants to have a little fun, you better pwn them :) epecially if your sportin' style stickers.

otherwise the honda lubers are just going to rage over pwning a dsm.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

why not? for one, your car is 10 years newer, i think it would be remotely close.

and why wouldnt it get done in like 2 months time? get off your arse!

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Plastic ECU, Rubber fist. Anyone else see a similarity in the materials used to make these two products? And yeah, if you think 200HP is gonna blow something up, I think your view of DSMs is a little mis-guided. They're not THAT prone to blowing up. Unless of course you don't know how to check base timing and have it advanced like, 15* or something. haha I don't make the most power in the world with my car, but I've been daily driving it since I got it, and I'm currently making about 300whp. The time has come to drop the skirt, put on a pair of big boy pants, and turn that knob. Hahaha

PS: There's no need to get so upset. We're only messing with you.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Pretty sure his parents will take away the keys if he mods it.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

??

It's already modded, just not to any real gain... That aside, my dad doesn't give a damn as long as it stays drivable, and my mom has no say in what goes on in the garage.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Hahahaha, I love it. Your being called out spaz, and not just by me. Better turn up that boost for the dyno run at least lol.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

LOL!!

so spaz, where do you get your dresses from?

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

You know, I've got a lot more things to take care of on this damn car before I even start putting money into making it faster. Two wheel bearings are bad, one of which is probably a week or so from failing, but I can't afford to fix it, so all I can do is pray it doesn't send me into another car or the wall when it locks up on the highway... And besides that, there's a slowly growing puddle of oil on the cardboard I park over, the source appearing to be where the head meets the block on the front left of the motor, so I've probably got a bad head gasket if not a cracked block now. And to top that off, the new clutch is slipping, because a couple assholes on here told me it was perfectly fine to boost on it during break-in as long as I didn't launch it.

So no, the car's not ready for any more than stock power. Deal with it.

And I've got a question for you, Jake. Where does a kid fresh out of HS get the money for an Evo?

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

1 - Finding a job?
2 - He got a job.

:D

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Are you sure the leak isn't from a crack in the valve cover, the drain hole in the valve cover or spray from dipstick? All of which are common causes for oil over there.

Yes, you shouldn't boost, launch or shift quick on a new clutch if it's an organic disc. But if it wasn't/isn't adjusted right that is a more likely cause of slipping. Or if the rear main or tranny is leaking oil onto the disc. Or the clutch is just to weak for your power. Even if you aren't the nicest to a new clutch, they usually don't fail right away.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Which two? If its rears dont worry about it :D if its steers then thats bad.

Puddles of Oil are a DSM marking its territory, no matter where it comes from. I doubt you have a cracked block, and why dont you get in there and clean it super good, then check again in a few days, maybe its coming from the VC.

and when you get some time, pull that clutch and deglaze it, it should still be good :D

Also, dont hate the player, hate the game.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Valve cover leaks a small amount from that corner, but the oil on the block is fresh, versus the oil on the head that is not, so that would rule out the drain as well. I've also never blown out the dipstick.

Disc is kevlar, and they're more prone to glazing. It once held 13 psi in all gears, now it won't hold anything above 10. So I'd say a 2100lb clutch that isn't holding even 200ft-lb at the crank is cooked.

Febo, it's both fronts that are bad. I already had to do both rears this past fall.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Warranty that clutch and the work to install it then, that's unacceptable.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Do you have free play at the top of the clutch pedal? Does it engage low/mid/high?

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Junk yard some new hubs and buy yourself some time? Im sure if you go to st. francis salvage you could pull em, and toss em over the fence lol

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

Call up Curt Brown and get some of the ceramic wheel bearings he is running. :)

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

The issue being that the work was done by Mitsu, who said they couldn't make guarantees on it. Whether that covers workmanship, I have no idea, I'd assume that if it doesn't I could easily fight for it if something was done wrong.

So you're saying to invoke the warranty through Comp Clutch, and that it should cover both labor and parts(if disc replacement is necessary)?

I'm 100% sure it's my fault because it used to hold, and now it doesn't. Doesn't mean I'll tell that to anyone calling the shots on the warranty, but still...

Clutch engagement is the same it's always been; right at mid, always the same spot.

Ceramic wheel bearings? Sounds interesting. I'll look into that.

Re: Does Spaz like the rubber fist?
 

If you cant warranty it and the disk is just glazed along with the Pressure plate, then just take some 1000 grit sandpaper and lightly scuff them to take off that glaze, as long as it didnt eff the disk too much you should be good, maybe this doesnt work for clutches, but Id think its worth a shot. lol
