  1. ECS tuning i think was in maryland and they used to work on starions. You'll be hard pressed to find a shop that specializes in them though. I'd just find an engine builder and let them at it, unless you want to do it yourself.
  2. Looking for a fuel pump inspection cover. If anyone has a spare they want to let go cheap please let me know.
  3. That flexible bumper repair putty works good. I did that on one of my cars.
  4. Ya, the site had issues and lost like 7 years of posts
  5. https://i2.wp.com/JapaneseNostalgicCar.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/1986-Mitsubishi-Starion-19.jpg like that
  6. they look the same. Although mine is just carpet covering that channel with a small plastic garnish
  7. we have vents, but not that rubberized pad for your foot
  8. Ah, didn't realize it could do that... The box is enormous and I was happy to be rid of it
  9. Finding injectors will not be an easy task, unfortunately. You can try starquestparts.net or perhaps some various overseeas mitsubishi dealers. I would test everything that you can before looking for injectors. You can test the vac advance, check fuel pressure, if you still have an issue get your injectors flow tested and cleaned.
  10. At least he wants to drive, my nephews don't see the need to own a car or even have a license. My sisters just pay for them to Uber around.
  11. no judgement. my dad wasn't mechanically or technically inclined... I spent most of my early driving years with the car in the driveway, acquiring tools, parts and chatting with Shelby on AIM as everything broke one thing at a time, including my bank account ;D
  12. ^ my parents never bought me a car either. I bought my starion when I was 16 y/o against my parents advisement. I didn't listen and probably would have been better off with something else, but I still have the car 22 years later.
  13. I'm not too familiar with the microsquirt, but for what reason would you still need the MSD6AL? I felt that going standalone was a great opportunity to remove my MSD box. The megamanual has instructions to use the 6al - http://www.megamanual.com/ms2/msd6a.htm
  14. Welcome and +1 to psu_crash's comments
  15. ahhh Shelby RIP. I remember being a little 16 yo kid asking him questions trying to get my first car running. he was such a good dude.
  16. I was working on the goal of having my car finished in 2012. I got it running'ish in 2021. So good job!
  17. Maybe too late, but you can make a "special tool" for the slide hammer to pull the torque tube and half axels using a 1.5" pipe floor flange and some bushings to get down to the thread of the slide hammer
  18. the coupler with the bands on it? If it's that, just buy a silicone coupler and some t-bolt clamps
  19. work from home. I usually have 10,000 windows open
  20. tux
