Purchased for 500$ a decent 93 TSI Auto with intentions of making a 10sec drag car out of it . Car was ready for the scrap yard in most peoples eyes, junk interior , engine was mostly in the trunk.

all new bushings on everything
manual steering rack

Tranny -

Body -

Looks like your build is going in the completely opposite direction of mine (auto, stripped, drag car). Looking good!

nodoze
01-16-2012, 01:22 PM
yea i read through youre thread yours looks good as well , i set out to build somethng the absolute best i could but as not many people have done. depending on how the engine reacts to everything i might slap some coil overs on it and be multi sport with it

01-16-2012, 01:28 PM
I've got a set of Eibachs and some rear KYB AGX adjustable shocks I'll trade you for your wheels. :D

nodoze
01-16-2012, 01:56 PM
ha ha i have kyb agx's on it already , those rims were on my 94 stealth back before i put the p45's on it . the whole reason the color scheme is green and bronze/gold is because i had those rims laying around and wanted to use them on this car

BigTyla
01-16-2012, 02:03 PM
Yeah, should have noticed the big red shocks on the rear in one of your pictures.

I've got a set of 1G 3S n/a wheels from my old 3S waiting on my Talon should it need the extra width. Fits the front of 1Gs fine but the rear would need 5mm spacers from what I hear. Have yet to try to put them on myself.

nodoze
01-16-2012, 03:56 PM
hum thats odd must be a stock wheel problem my 17's on the talon clear everything no problem, u should look into the brake upgrade like i did its just some 100 dollar bracketsd and lets u bolt any 3s'tt to your front

I already had some n/a 3S rotors lying around from when I swapped drilled/slotted ones on my 3S back in the day, so I just got the matching calipers to swap on. They are an upgrade for the 1Gs. I just wanted something that would fit under the stock wheels.

Basics first. Fuel, Spark, Compression

nodoze
03-02-2012, 01:38 PM
it has fuel spark compression lol . turned out the timing was off alittle and then the plug wires were on the wrong coils. which i knew might be a problem because i have my own mount for the packs hard to tell which two went where. but i had it running today!!! fixed a tranny cooler leak and an oil leak. have to take my water pipe to get re brazed it was leakign but other than that seemed good

BigTyla
03-02-2012, 03:42 PM
Nice. Knew it was something simple.

nodoze
03-02-2012, 08:32 PM
now i just need some rad fans :) so i can let the tranny warm up and get the fluid it needs , right now it seems to engage reverse immediately, but in first you have to give it some rpm , part of that is prolly the stall but i ran out of fluid. a health cooler line leak didnt help that cause any. part of it might be the stall converter as well its set to stall at 3500 rpm.

Lame, but at least it's not a difficult nor expensive fix :)

Still good numbers with a lot of room for improvement. Easy fix for the carrier bearings.

nodoze
03-25-2012, 08:19 PM
yea hopefully bearings will be here by wends/thurs, have acouple little things to fix and back to the dyno the 6th .lol yea let me rephrase , 300 awhp at 4500 rpm cause he was shutting it down at 5 because of a vibation haha. and on just wastegate spring 14 psi. and if you guys have ever met chad at modified by kc before he is awesome , only charged me half for yesterday tuning will charge second half after next time . super forgiving of me fixing little problems that arise just a good guy.
earlier in the day he was mocking a stock honda he tuned to 170 whp. " watch out 170 furious horsepower, turns looks at my car and say lets make some power boys "

nodoze
04-20-2012, 09:52 PM
well its tuned. 450awhp and 380 ftlbs all the turbo would eek outa it we had the boost controller all the way backed out.

what all have you removed? my car (91 awd 5 speed) weighed in at 2800. its fully stripped with a pair of stock seats and i still have a rear crash bar but with your car having a cage and still 300 pounds lighter is awesome i want mine to get to 2500 with me in it and no cage so i was jw

nodoze
04-22-2012, 01:05 PM
lol thats not with me in it haha , i have removed everything ,gutted underside of dash pad thats the only real trim left on the inside , scrapped all the sound deadening off the floor, took off every little bracket ect i could , one wiper arm , pretty much anything i could came off

04-22-2012, 03:06 PM
im 2800 w/o mei have door panels center consoul 2 seats and a dash. i only have one wiper too. the only thing left under the hood is my ps and the ac bracket. i dont have sound deadening either i wonder if 1gb cars are lighter then 1ga cars for some reason.

04-22-2012, 03:20 PM

Well spent all afternoon 3-9 working on it , and its all back together sans turbo which I have plans for . No head warpage , could not even fit a .001 feeler gauge under anything , I did have one small concern their was a bright spot on the valve reliefs in a weird spot unlike valves contacting pistons or anything , it was shiny spot idk I should have taken a pic but after inspecting suspect valves and areas I deemed all was good and put it back.together

I'm hoping that this winter. With the 40 on it , fixed headgasket and a better tune we can break 550 HP or so , that and timing was off on last tune . I knew this year would be a trial / error / learning year for setting up the car but I didn't think it would be this bad

well little update their she sits under a tarp..... im goingto get an aluminnum radiator for her soon and re doing the suspension . Going to put some evo suspension on it . stock evo suspension spring rates are 100 pounds heavier in the front and 160 pounds in the rear and the bilsteins that i have found from the evo mr are a better shock than the agx i have on it . so looks like a win win with a little modification everything should fit right in and maintain stock ride height .

Just holla when you get those lines and we can finish it up!

I don't know why this thought popped into my head, but how much do oil thermostats matter? I know the 3S has one factory.. and I assume the DSM probably did too but with the forward facing filter housing and sammich plate.. not so much.

I guess another one of those because racecar things. It would be open pretty much all the time anyways *shrug*.

I'm liking this build man, more radical than mine. I'm also rocking a 1gb Talon AWD. I am just shooting for low-mid 10s on a stock frame turbo. Been in the 10s before but that was on a 5 speed with a holset, 2.3, and many many many broken drivetrain parts.

very nice , stock frame will be a challenge for sure to be in the 10's . im hoping to avoid driverain shock with the auto

Yeah I do believe it will be hard, but I know English Racing have done it with a FP 68HTA. That is a stock frame. Really awesome turbo.

correct, talked to a shop specializing in dsm trans today. i quote from him " every dsm that upgrades a stall will eat a front pump withing 200 miles unless they have the pump bushing machined looser to compensate for the extra heat from the stall making it expand and keeping the pump from locking up like yours has done " so they are cheking on getting me one and doing their "race prep" which is machining the bushing,increase the feed passages and put out more pressure to it .

i was so pissed last night but i found comfort in a bottle of jim

dont suppose it would be right if i didnt update some pics :) found the culprit, the bad part now locating some parts to replace !
the first is the toast oil pump , :( the second is what caused it , a dowl pin not getting seated properly kept the block 1/8 lifted on the back side very hard to see. so it pre loaded the bearing in the pump she got hot and bobs your uncle !
