I'm a David Lane, do you know if David Sims wants a tranny?

TruckA

Bump, still for sale.

TruckA

I feel your pain. Anytime I've tried to sell a semi expensive thing related to a DSMer, I go through the same crap. That's why I always write in my ads, first to pay takes it, and I don't hold on to things for any potential buyer, don't take payments, etc.

Which should make it easier to cell

Alright! Thanks for the tip. The last tranny I shipped was an AWD manual for a Subaru Outback and it definitely weighed more than this one.

I have an extra 5 speed that I can now let go because I've sold my truck. If you haven't upgraded to a better transmission with Bill Hincher's bellhousings, this will bolt right up to the 4G63T for a RWD setup. I got this transmission with an engine and a lot of extra parts and it should work fine ...

Sold for $3000 today.

Thanks for the help with the link, the period at the end was throwing it off, but its fixed now. The water outlet on the head has been there from the beginning. I never used it b/c I had heard that others had problems with overheating. The engine was put in before I had learned that the head ...

Yes, its true. I am selling my truck that I have built and enjoyed for so long. I’m trying to move on to greener pastures you could say. I’ve wrote a long ad with a lot of information and pictures located here: http://home.nc.rr.com/davidlane/Max%20for%20Sale.html So please review that site and ...

Cleaning out the shed and I don't need this as a paperweight anymore. Yeah it looks beat and its not the prettiest, but it works and could be improved upon. I used it initially when I did the 4g swap and built a better one later that I'm still using. It would be better than starting from scratch for ...

Thats a 1957 Ford Fairlane 500, that sucked a valve this spring and I havent been able to finish it yet

Sweet, I thought it was a Fairlane. My first ride where my auto adventures started was a 1965 Ford Fairlane 500. Keep up the good work.

That's what I'm running in my truck, I thought I had made a post about it here, but I must have posted it on mightyd50.com only. I picked over a 1993 laser with the 1.8 liter, and it had the same thermostat neck that will parallel the firewall making installation just a little bit easier.

I can't help there too much, It might be the intake. I had another type with cicular tubing on there before with shorter runners and it seemed to feel different.

TruckA

I took the truck to Turbo Tune in Greensboro, NC and had a good time for my first dyno session. We took it through probably six or seven pulls on the dyno. From my initial tuning, it was churning out 234hp and 240 pounds of torque, and after a few runs and tweaking the afc, it ended up making around ...

That is some really nice work. Looks good!

Thanks for the info, I will definately look into to it. I think I had read about a similar training program in a magazine a few years back.

stop hammering it so hard off the line, feather the clutch, you should be able to do a low 2 second 60ft. time in that truck if it has a limited slip. I don't know 1/8th mile anything, but 18psi on an untuned setup is NOT recomended!

I received the same message, I'll probably pick one up if I can.

Not trying to hijack the thread, but the info I need may be useful for swap information. I found a guy online near me that is into building late 70's early 80's toyota engines, and I asked him if he had any spare RWD transmissions he may want to part with. One is from a 1.8, 3TC...it's a 5 speed

I like the stock wheels he uses on the rear. I have four of them to burn down eventually as well. A gently used EvoIII 16g is going on my truck over the weekend, and hopefully I can get the thing fully tuned finally. The last turbo had an air leak out the back of the compressor when doing boost leak ...

TruckA

Have you came across this yet?

It may be of help to you. I kept the AWD drive bellhousing from the talon I sourced my engine and parts from in case I decided to go this route. The transmission was dead already.

Hey everyone,

I am going on a vacation soon and have decided to sell my spare engine. I personally removed this 4G63T from a 1991 Eagle Talon Tsi with 133,500 miles. I had bought the Tsi back in mid-November in order to remove the engine and other various parts to swap the 4G63T into my 1988 Mitsu ...

TruckA

Congrats as well,

Just shows that everything is running well. I checked my gas mileage yesterday when I filled up, and its getting 21mpg of city driving...and I driven it a little hard at times. I know I still have some tuning to do, and my last log indicated all the fuel trims running over 100, so ...

TruckA nice job!! I know the feeling-my D50 runs better and better each week. Took a lot of work to get here but things are finally comming together. i now have 500 miles on the swap and am going to try and pass emisions on tuesday.
This thing is quick.

It's raining today and I can't get into ...

I was finally able to set up the logger and gather some information today. I was glad the logger worked because I had to hard wire the data cable to the ECU, plus use a USB to Serial converter that took a bit to set up. I also finished installing the 2g MAS today and had to re-route a few things in ...

Hey everyone,

I don't know if this will help add to the discussion of available transmissions for the 4g63t, but I had to pull diagrams for someone about the automatic transmission used in the Mighty Max's, so I've attached the file. Maybe the info will be useful to someone. This block of text is ...

$25 shipped to you as long as you're not too far away. I'm in Raleigh, NC. I'll have to make sure that I also have the metal sleeve piece that hugs the engine mount. I'll try to look for the mounts and take photos this afternoon.

TruckA

I may have an extra set of Mighty Max mounts if you still need some. I'll have to check, but I'd sell them cheap as they're used.

TruckA

Here's a vid, I don't have any of the truck driving yet. I got a little happy footed on the highway through a construction zone, and when going fast I hit a bump and broke my home made gauge pod. It was crap anyway, so I guess I need to find an A pillar pod or a triple 2 5/8 gauge pod to go on top ...

TruckA

I have the option to run the thermostat housing on the front since the guy I bought my engine from had a welder weld an aluminum pipe and plate to allow the mounting. But I decided to go with the stock location because I had already dented the firewall from the first engine I was going to use, and ...

I've been taking it slow, there's no way I want to throw away many months of work. I put 65 miles on the truck yesterday with no real issues. I hadn't connected the throttle body coolant lines, and my mechanic friend says that may be partially causing the idle surge, but he also mentioned it may be ...

TruckA

Its driveable!

I checked the engine codes this morning, it only pulled up the fuel pump which is okay because I'm not using the stock pump or harness. I checked all fluids, took it for a drive around the neighborhood, and it drove fine, didn't overheat. Came back home, checked everything out, then ...

TruckA

Update,

The only code showing is for the Fuel Pump, code 42. So I'll have to figure out whatever signal usually satifies the computer from the fuel pump system to turn the light off since I'm using an external walbro pump.

TruckA

You were right DJPowerhaus, connect one side of the light to a positive, and the negative to ECU CEL pin, and it works. It sucks because it it is on now, but that's no biggie. Time to run the diagnostics. It finally runs well, but has idle surge, but the annoying high pitched squeal I've been ...

TruckA

Mine works fine wired in to the tach output from the ECU, I have an older used Autometer sport comp monster tach with no shift light. I just tied into the same place as where the SAFC II rpm source wire connects. Its pin 54 on the center connector to the ECU.

Thanks for the info peregrine and tjc, I will attempt to wire it up this weekend. Are you guys not concerned with putting in the check engine light? I guess I'm concerned with something going wrong when I'm driving and not noticing it until its too late.

Thanks again!

TruckA

Right now its not coming on when I start the car. I have a cord that came with the donor car for the dsmlink, but I do not have the harness connector for the diagnostic port. I've got another spare harness, so I'm going to search for an identical connector to the stock diagnostic port and wire it as ...

TruckA

Anyone have any luck in setting up the check engine light? I'm not sure if I have mine wired up quite right and I'd like to know how anyone else wired up a light. I bought a separate indicator light that I would like to use. Also, as far as obtaining diagnostic codes, anyone have a good setup? I ...

I dont think the brazing is going to like the heat the turbo is going to put into that pipe! the pipe will be as hot as what the brazing torch could get it to RED hot. so just keep an eye on the bronze running. where the bronze is a bit lumpy (rough) it needs a bit more heat from the torch to ...

The first website says that the coil will work either way, but it has a stronger spark if correctly installed. The second website mentions that the polarity matters, and the rest don't mention anything other than how a coil works in general. I'm trying to think back to my general physics classes to ...

I don't know if this will help you or not, but on the site I listed below. The guy built a 2.4L turbo mighty max, and in his writings, he mentions that he swapped in a complete rear from an '88 Dakota that is posi. He mentions that it went in pretty easily, maybe this will help you out.

Here's my attempt, I had to take it to a welder to connect the pipes to the flange, hopefully it will be ready tomorrow. At the time, I just brazed the flange from the inside in a few spots.
