Brad's 5th DSM...
I just got back from NY today from picking up a '99 black on black 2g. It made it back without any major hiccups which I think is pretty good for a dsm! It's nothing crazy and I just want it to be a halfway fun/reliable daily. Wanted another evo but didn't want a car payment. I told myself this was close enough:blind:

FMIC with back door piping HKS Super Sequential bov FP Intake Ricer Filter Evo MAF Larger TB - I'm guessing just a 1g but haven't looked into it to verify External wastegate with external dump Apexi down pipe Thermal cat back Aluminum radiator with dual slim fans FIC 1000cc injectors currently tuned on pump gas Poopra 300lph pump Hallman Pro MBC SPI Industry Boost Gauge - Want to replace with an AEM boost gauge and get an AEM wideband as well Mystery rebuilt tranny but it shifts like butter ACT 2600 with a street disc and act flywheel Prothane mount on the tranny mount. The guy gave me the rest. Tokico/eibach setup Evo8 wheels with snow tires HID setup Ricer front lip Apparently it made 409 on a dyno dynamics dyno @ 26psi out in NY. Plans: Take it to Shane to have him possibly tune it on e85 or just have him look at the pump gas tune. Get it re-tinted as the current tint is scratched and looks like garbage. Smoke the turn signals in the front bumper. I'd like to paint the lower half of the dash black once its nice out. For some reason it bugs me that mitsubishi made it half black/gray Dye the carpet black I'd like to re-cover the headlinger in a black suede or something Get an aem boost/wideband gauge. Don't know if I want another a-pillar setup or do like I had on my old 2g and mount them on the steering column. Repaint the front bumper due to rock chips and take off the front lip thing. I'd also like to paint the center tail light section at the same time. Pick up a non-cruise control box. He has it rigged up so it still has the box on the firewall but no cruise. Might as well cean up the bay some more if I don't get cruise. New rims/tires in the summer once I find something I like Misc clean up of the engine bay/other items. Anything other little things my cheaaaaaaaap self can find deals on And just try and enjoy it without selling it! :D |

Re: Brad's 5th DSM...
damn, you made it home cross country in a modded dsm....... now that's amazing. Congrats brad, when's this gonna be for sale!?
Also, stock 7 bolt motor? |
Re: Brad's 5th DSM...
5 spd? I smell a sale coming on.

Re: Brad's 5th DSM...
I'd say it's better looking than an EVO, I love the black with dark EVO wheels and that front lip. Plus there's a lot of room in that RED, I think mine did 470 at Shane's on race gas, I can't remember for sure.

Re: Brad's 5th DSM...
Looking good man! I miss my black 2Gb....always wanted black on black...interior shots please!
The dyno it was on out east might be the one that reads closer to a dynojet, 400+ on pump gas on that setup sounds a little crazy IMHO. |

Yea I thought the number seemed kind of crazy too. I'm hoping to get it on the dyno sometime soon. I don't really want to push it too hard so if it can make similar power to my old evo, I'd be in love. The evo was fun to daily around 360/370 uncorrected @ db and that isn't much power at all but was pretty reliable and still fun to drive around and let it rip once in a while. I'll try and snag an interior picture after work. Needs a good vaccum but its pretty clean. That reminds me, one other thing I would like to do is dye the carpet black as well and maybe re-do the headliner in black too. |
Re: Brad's 5th DSM...
Nice car!

Crappy note: Just went to the dmv and because the guyoriginally wrote a 2 then turned it into a 3for the month on the date of sale the dmv won't transfer the title to me until I get him to sign and explain why. So if there is anybody with good penmanship, I know a way you could earn a free beer... |
