I've used those Sparco seat brackets for a 2g eclipse and they will place the seat WAYYY too high in the cabin of the car. Wedge used to make them and were great, but they no longer make brackets for us from what I've seen. I've seen a seller on ebay offering similar brackets for the 2g...
I am selling a used Tial QR BOV that has an 11 psi spring inside. It is in great working order and is nearly in perfect condition yet. Includes the clamp but needs a new O-ring seal for the flange. Can also include adapter to 1g bov flange.Asking $180 plus shipping & PayPal fees. Located in...
I have a brand new set of Injector Dynamics 1000cc high impedance injectors with the plug terminal kit.Asking $325 plus shipping & PayPal fees. Located in Appleton, WI for local pickup.
The most sought after model would be the MHI Evo 3 16g which would have the 47 serial number. Seems to be the best combination of airflow and boost threshold.
You can still buy the bolt-on t28 from ExtremePSI brand new in the package if that's what you're looking for.https://www.extremepsi.com/store/Genuine-Garrett-Big-T28-Turbocharger-Mitsubishi-Eclipse-1995-99-SALE.html
Absolutely do not buy that car to daily drive it. It is a 35 year old collector car and is not going to be problem free. Also, you'd be spending that much money on that car because it is low mile and, assumingly, the condition reflects that. It will rust out driving in winter conditions no...
Welcome! Fortunately, these cars are pretty simple and you can just install whichever catback exhaust that you want. If your car has the factory downpipe and catalytic converter, just make sure the catback is meant to mate up to the cat.
Not sure if he's a supporting vendor, but here's a bolt-on solution!https://www.dudes-custom-parts.com/shop/exterior-interior/evo-momo-steering-wheel-conversion-bracket-for-dsm-and-mitsubishi/
Well, after some debating back and forth, I decided to keep my Eclipse and I sold the Rx7 that I picked up this summer. I will spend some more time trying to diagnose the drivetrain vibration as I still haven’t found anything that seems to be out of spec.However, I have picked up a few more...
I saw this car listed for sale as well and it looked like a great deal, seems like that was true! With having such a clean example, it is definitely tempting to just want to leave the car very stock, but do it how you want the car to be. I couldn't stand how painfully slow my 99 gsx was in stock...
One option is the CX Racing FMIC piping. You can order just the piping from them with the silicone couplers or the complete kit. Obviously, it isn't anything spectacular, but its the same thing as the Punishment Racing kits that everyone was using forever. May need to modify the piping a bit...
It sounds like these codes may have something to do with the reason your car is running poorly. It sounds like you may have a primary o2 sensor failure as well as a coolant temp sensor failure. Both of these are pretty crucial to the car running properly. The coolant temp sensor code would be...
Your best bet to start with would be a boost leak test. These cars use a mass airflow sensor and any unmetered air will throw things off and cause all sorts of issues. Check for any sort of vacuum lines that are cracked or disconnected along with the intercooler piping. Also, are there any CEL's?
Check out my build thread, I'm running 18x8.5 +38 with a 245/40/18 tire on the car. There's no way a +55 would fit as it would be even further in and would contact the knuckle. My setup is perfectly flush with the body of the car.
This is an authentic B&M short throw shifter for any 2g Eclipse or Talon. Everything is in good condition aside from a few little knicks in the shift knob threads which could easily be cleaned up with a die.Asking $200 shipped in the US 48. Feel free to message me with any questions!
Definitely check over all of the intercooler pipes/hoses to make sure one of them isn't off. What you're describing definitely is similar to when a coupler pops off the intercooler pipe and you can hardly get on the throttle without the car bucking all over due to the maf reading being skewed...
This definitely sucks to see on your first drive around the block. Hopefully you can get the engine sorted this winter and get it good to go for this coming spring!
I'm going to have to take a closer look at everything. Upon my initial inspection, the U-joints on the driveshaft all seemed to be in good shape with play. The carrier bearings didn't seem to have any unusual amount of play in the rubber bushing that surrounds the bearing either. It seems like...
As many people have seen, I have had the car listed for sale on Bring a Trailer. Unfortunately, I took the car out this weekend to film a driving video of the car and on deceleration, there was a nasty vibration that was coming from underneath the car. I spend a bit of time looking everything...
In my opinion, if you like the car, just keep it and learn some basic things on it. The car you get at 17 is likely never going to be something you plan on keeping for a long time or is worth sticking all sorts of money into it. I say just learn some basic mechanical things, detailing, etc on...
It definitely sounds like it could be lifter tick, but that usually goes away after running the car for a bit. I'd recommend filming the sound from the bottom of the car to see if the noise is stronger near where the rod bearings would be. Also, get a video of it revving.
Any videos or description of the noise? Does this happen at any specific rpms or vehicle speed? Does it go away when moving and pushing in the clutch pedal?
I’m selling a set of 4 1000cc PTE fuel injectors. Injectors are pretty clean and was told they only ever ran pump gas. Asking $160.00 shipped in the US 48.Message me with any questions!
Definitely how you plan for a new build to go. I've always had really good luck with the UV dye to detect oil leaks. I had something similar that was incredibly difficult to find and it helped identify that a cam seal was leaking which caused drips to come from multiple areas toward the bottom...
I am selling my JM Fab recirculated o2 housing. It is in perfect condition with zero cracks or issues. These come with studs pre welded onto the outlet for easy downpipe installation.Asking $250 plus shipping and PayPal fees. Message me with any questions!
I am selling my Ecmlink v3 setup with eprom ecu. I just recently had the ecu sent to Ecmtuning for testing/inspection/repair and they replaced some leaking capacitors so this is all ready to go.Asking $750 plus shipping and PayPal fees. Message me with any questions!
This turbo is almost brand new and is in nearly perfect condition. The only issue is one of the threads on the hotside is stripped out from the manifold to turbine housing connection. This can likely be repaired with a heli coil but I never got around to installing this turbo so I never got that...
Part of the problem is is that a few super nice examples sell for 30k+ and then EVERYBODY with one that is still on the road also thinks their 3 times repainted "just needs a tune" car is also worth that when that is far from the case. These cars in stock or near-stock condition are rare because...
If you want to keep the car reliable, make sure to spend money right the first time on quality parts. An Evo 3 16g will be perfect for what you're looking to do along with ECMlink for the engine management. You'll also need a fuel pump, injectors, an intercooler upgrade, and a clutch to handle...
As everybody else has suggested, just focus on getting the car back up and running again. As always, maintenance before mods. From there, you can sort out which modifications you have and determine your plan of action. It may take a bit longer to save up to do everything right, but you're way...
Yeah, quite a few people will delete ABS when working on these cars. All that you really need is a non-ABS proportioning valve and then the new brake lines to go to the front brakes from the valve and then you can remove all of the ABS components from the car.
It’s been a while since my last update, but I haven’t had anything to post about. This winter I noticed that the upper radiator hose neck on the radiator was starting to get discolored so I decided to get that replaced before it ends up breaking off and leaving me stranded somewhere.I went...
I've ran into similar issues with an FMIC on 2gb GSX's. The thing that has been the most successful for me is adding ducting between the intercooler all the way to the radiator, as others have mentioned. I've done this with AC in place and it instantly resolved the issues I'd have with...
Hey all - I am planning out some power upgrades for my car and am wanting to go with as OEM of a look as I can in the engine bay. I am doing a basic 16g setup on E85 and would like to avoid running an AFPR if possible for a more OEM+ appearance. Is an AFPR needed to resolve the overrun that...
It is pretty much not worth using anything but OEM for anything like this. Many auto parts store products are known to prematurely fail such as hydraulic tensioners, master cylinders , etc.
I am selling my ECMlink v3 full setup. This includes the eprom ecu, cable, speed density harness, 4 bar map sensor, and iat sensor in throttle body elbow. I am asking 900 for this complete setup. Shipping to the US 48 and PayPal fees included.PM me with any questions!
One additional thing to check that could've gone bad is the spark plug wires. These will go bad and cause ignition studdering that can act like what you're describing. The timing seems convenient, but with a car this old, you never know.
As the title mentions, I'm looking to purchase an Apexi N1 downpipe for a 2g AWD car. I'm looking for new or very lightly used condition. Please message me with what you have along with photos.Thank you!
