I hate that -10 pushlock rubber hose you gave me 4 years ago. And that 4 inch filter from like 7 years ago. You're a terrible salesman!!! :p lol



Aaron, I hate that -10 braided stainless line you gave me too, now my pump cavitates on a hard corner if the tank is near empty!

I gotta stop giving people stuff for free who don't appreciate it I guess...

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.

Looking good Aaron.

Soooo..........

She is alive again, now with more FMIC, head studs, Trans cooler and 16G.
Need to adjust the tune and sort out some rattles.

Thanks to Munchgsx, blackawdtsi, and my friend Kris and of course MAP for some sweet parts and stocking everything we pulled a late night and had her up and running, I had a blast driving it today, esp in the last 5 mins since I did a boost leak test, I think this is the most sealed I've ever had a car.

Pics to come.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Really, you would have scrapped it? For a DD FWD is the way to go although it's an automatic. Seems like you got a reall good deal considering you could probably pick up a stock head for cheap or get one for free because it sounds like everyone likes to give you stuff. You going to have the at the mitsu-get-together?

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

So, yesterday after fixing boost leaks she would miss bad at about 5k-5500rpms, figured either plugs or MAF since I was at that 2400hz window but since i couldn't remember how old the plugs were or what was in there I went and got some BPR7's.

New plugs gapped to .028 cleaned her right up, pulls 27psi spike settles to 22psi by redline.

Nice story I've always loved 1G's and my first was a fwd Turbo and sometimes I still think about that car my first DSM. Thanks for keeping one of these truly unique cars alive!

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Thanks for my recognition butthead!! ;)

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

^i was gonna post pics with your recognition slutface!

Kevin saved my car by giving me his o-ring from his bov on his car. That was the biggest boost leak on my car it wouldn't even hold 1-2 psi.

He also offered to touch my penis which made me smile.

Nice! How does it launch or do you need a different TC and some TCU magic to launch the auto?
