OK I am so over this, i should write a novel
Sam's MAGNA PROBLEMS issue 857 lol
SRS..... WTF does it mean.
i checked my manual and it seems pretty serious (it was all about WARNINGS & dangers on brakes and saftey ) Supplemental restrain system
the Light came on last night. im not sure if its cause im running low on fuel.
but it turns off when i use the brakes (fades away)
not that i care right now.
becuase its not the only problem.
ITS DOESNT SAY SRS
it says (
)
and thats all, its more like an half S
(also. i dont think i have a petrol light.) ive never seen it since ive owned the car?
and my petrol is UNDER THE BAR(see image)
I DONT KNOW WHY its like this. so your help would be great.
thanks goiz and gills
heres a pic
sorry bout the blurryness

Not sure if it helps. But last time the SRS was coming on and off randomly in my ES, one of my side airbags had to be replaced. You may want to get your dash bulbs looked at. Who knows what warnings have flashed up : )

i HAVE AIRBAGS?

i am almost 100% sure i dont
no splits or openings for them to get out.
UNLESS they are another 1 of ashneels SPECIAL aftermarket MODS that i didnt know about
e.g no cruise control due to a so called "aftermarket steering kit" which is amazingly similar to the stock setup :bouncin: hm sure lol
only thing saving my life is the the solid airbagless mitsu steering wheel. lol
and my sloshy brain may somewhat dampen the impact lol

dude its just the airbags mate, how could ash have known that there was an issue with them?? :nuts:
Dont be stupid cars a cars and they always have problems, i highly doubt an airbag issue will send you into a tree, it wont help if you do drive into a tree as it most likely wont deploy lol
Just take it to mitsu and see what they say, dont stress!!

the reason i said "i dont wanna be sent into a tree"
something could fail. or may already have
and nothing is going to notify me that there is a problem with my car.

Dude, there is no light on the dash that will fore-warn you of an impending tree crash. If you don't have airbags, but you are getting an airbag warning light, could it be that there is a wiring fault?

Yeh a better shot is needed, i don't think that is the SRS warning light.
If your car didn't come with airbags, it shouldn't have an SRS warning light hooked up to a sensor.

how dumb do you think i realy am mate?
i figured its a wiring fault if its only showing half the SRS symbol
but SRS or /!\ appears if there is an faults on the car , brakes, seatbelts, drive (according to the mitsu manual)

Binzer you took the cheaper option when you decided to by Ashneels car. Dont go bitching on the forums that you got "ripped off". If you feel you did, complain to him, not to AMC.
On this issue, take it to a Mitsu dealer or mechanic if your so worried, otherwise ignore it. It could be a light malfunction, or there could be some serious issue. We've got no idea, so do the smart thing and get it checked...

Binzer you've had a warning already I beleive, this is another warning for you to ease up with your shouting, immature, whining attitude.
If you have issues, ask them sensibly. Don't jump down peoples throats who are trying to help you out.
I've had several complaints about your carry on and it seems every post you do has the same tone. And every thread you start ends up in the same hole.
If you have problems with a seller take it up with them. If you want to get us on side, perhaps change your method of delivery in your posts.
I say all this ignoring what has or hasnt happened between yourself and Ashneel I'm focussing on your behaviour in here.

Seriously dude, I don't think thats going to help much. The main restriction in the intake is the factory snorkel (not enough cross sectional area). The air coming in will be roughly the same temperature as what the standard intake gets anyway, so no real COLD benefits.

AH I see. well that runs down through the guts and the pipe pokes into the right hand fog light mount. and also sucks in through the snorkle. is this right

But that defeats the purpose of it being there. The snorkel already gets cool air, but is a restriction to air FLOW....with it still being there I can't see the small extra pipe doing to much of a difference.....in my opinion anyway.

i thought it was the cross sectional area of the mouth of the snorkel, in which case doing what binzer has done is the same as what you have done.

his would have alot more intake going in seeing intake pipe is the same if not bigger diameter as the snorkle
while mine is sucking through a 50mm pipe
and the snorkle. i coppied theEGO's idea

I have a feeling 110mm piping has a larger cross sectional area then both his openings combined. Others that tried his method didn't seam to notice any difference, I did. But I'm not going to get into another CAI battle thread. lol

LOL. do mind explaining exatly what a "cold air intake" is.?
does it just consist of cooled air going into your engine instead of normal passing air
and what is the limit of COLDNESS you can pump through you engine. is it bad to constantly have freezing cold air.
E.g Freezer air. (i have a cooler panel out of a "battery operated engle" (little freezer esky)
if i was to rig up the cooler panel into the intake , would it improve performance at all
or do they actully make something similar to what im on about

So instead of using a 50mm hose, what about 80-90mm?

It should work, I can see the benefit of keeping looking stock, but it's just easier to use a nice and clean single pipe and ring clamp.
Actuially you could squeeze 90 hosing onto the air pox pickup anyway. Unless you set on keeping the snorkel, just make sure you attach it at a softer angle.

what did you paint your intake manifold with?
Phonic

what did you paint your intake manifold with?
First few coats was just black spray paint, in this case left over Calliper paint I had. Then I added a few very light (with quick strokes) coats of exterior touch up pain (in a can) thats the closest match I had to the Champagne TF paint. The end effect is a very nice smoked platinum effect, helps that the surface was rough, the fuel rail come out with a different effect due to the smoother surface. I'll get a close up of what it looks like.

the low fuel light is just on the left of the SRS light i reckon whats happened is the overlay has shifted in the dash just a fraction. open up the dash and move it back into place and the low fuel will be lit up rather than half the srs.

youre the ball mate.
while i was driving and i pressed on the brakes. causing the SRS to fade out (like a petrol light should seeing the petrol flows to the front of the tank)
i filled up last night and i havent seen it since
when i got home i removed my dash, clusters, and looked into it a bit more. it has bumped out and the SRS window had moved across, easy fixed
so all in all. it wasnt really a big problem. it was just a meer misunderstanding due to a bump in the cluster, dislodging a bulb to the UN-USED SRS light
[Id like to apologise to ALL of AMC members, reps, mods and guests, for my shotty attitude throughout the week.
ive been on edge and worked up for quite some time, due to personal issues (i wont tell you my life story) and i did the totaly wrong thing by letting the steam out on the members and this forum.
expecialy Ashneel sorry mate. :(
im happy with my car. and its my responobility. but you all know what its like to be fired up. we all start BLAMESTORMING, unless its just me
MEhhhh its a thing of the past now :)
thanks for all your help

if thats ok. im interested in modifying a COOLER panel INTO the intake to cool the passing air. is it possible and is it going to damage my car
MicJaiy
28-09-2007, 09:12 AM
it wouldn't be worth it, nor would you get something powerful enough to keep something cold (especially in the engine bay) without compromising the overall power of the car.
You would probably get better results by putting some dry ice in your intake just before the air filter :bowrofl:
Seriously, don't bother, what you have is fine. Save up your money and get some real modifications like Cams, ECU, etc
