I think after hearing all the input it's a no go on the on3 I'm not going to take the chance so I'm looking at an hx40 or possibly a 68hta? Which would everyone recommend for the goal of 450 500whp?
Only reason I was looking at On3 was the price and I hate sounding like I'm just trying to be as cheap as possible but I need something decent to last 2-3 years then I plan to go with the fb black times are tough right now lol I'm not trying to build a full blown race car just something fun to...
Looking for some info on the On3 Performance gt35r turbo I'm thinking about going with one of these on my 1999 eclipse gsx automatic. My question is has anyone run any on3 turbos if so what are your thoughts on them and yes I know there not going to be on par with an authentic but with all the...
I have an ecu out of my 97 gsx auto i was going to use if i decided to use link im leaning more towards link i think because i feel like i can better monitor my car and more accurate tune with the link how much would it cost to get link for everything needed? I also have a new AEM UEGO im going...
i just bought my second auto GSX this one is a 1999 with the standard black box ecu my question is my goal is 400whp and im new to the whole tuning world i know the best for these cars is dsm link but its a tad bit pricey so is there a big difference between the tuning possibility's with link...
I'm not wanting to push the high mileage engine I just want to have something to drive and keep it reliable if possible but I don't really have any spare funds right now that's why I was wondering if I just slap the 16g on there and leave the rest stock to the computer to adjust for if it would...
I just bought my second gsx auto this time I found a "grandma" owned 1999 eclipse gsx auto mostly stock with a crazy 201k miles. Everything is perfectly mint minus small rust spot inside driver side rear wheel well but my question is I found that the exhaust manifold is cracked and one of the...

I bought a 97 eclipse gsx about a year ago with a spun bearing and a broke balance shaft witch i have since fixed and my goal is a 400whp my question is what kind of mods do i need to make 400whp my mod list now is....Big 16g turbo,injen intake,3in exhaust and DP,ARP head studs,hallman pro BC my...
I just bought a 97 gsx with a bad motor decided to totally redo the engine now that everything is working great its time to start fixing the appearance i have a bad repair spot right by were the spoiler mounts to the hatch and some rust forming around the underneath of the hatch also and my...
They do have the nitride coating from what I've found out so I'm not going to do remand unless they redo the nitride finish that's what makes these cranks so good
I just found out I spun a bearing and put some pretty good scarring on the crank and I'm pretty sure I need a new crank my question is what cranks could i use such as an evo crank and so on also how bad are remanufactured cranks? And if anyone knows were I could find a good deal on a crank...
I just got the car and i picked it up very cheap because the PO started to hear a knocking noise, freaked out and sold it. So currently I am fixing the problem which was a broken balance shaft and I'm replacing some other odds and ends.The reason I'm looking into the tuning now is i like to...
I just purchased a 97 GSX automatic (wanted a 5 speed :cry:) and had to do some repairs but now I'm getting ready to tune it because the PO I bought it from put a 16g turbo on the car and I'm not sure it was tuned at all.I'm totally lost on the tuning aspect of these cars. I'm new to the...
Well i finally figured out my problem and started repairs! What seems to of happened is the oil pump sprocket retaining nut fell off got wedged in the pulleys and took a chip out and then took out the oil seal around the sprocket which allowed a small oil leak. So now that i knew what the...
So I come home from a bad day at work and figured if I worked on the car some maybe it would help my day instead I got the opposite effect.I finally gave it all a good look over and got it up on stands and started looking around but wasn't to happy at what I found. I found a good amount of under...
Yes it has some missing teeth and the noise does not really sound like a rod or bearing it's a very different sound from that and the video does little justice to understand the sound. I'm wondering to if the shaft the pulley is attached to hasn't come out of the block slightly or something also...
I've tried weighing all the possibilities and some are sounding pretty bad lol if it's worst case scenario let's say the bottom end needs redone how much would I be looking at to redo the entire bottom end and all timing components? Just a ball park estimate will help
That is the best video I have of the sound sorry for the poor quality. And if anyone would care to help me out and send links or something to a list of recommended parts to fix the obvious pulley and whatever else is thought to be wrong it would be much appreciated.
There is no timing belt cover and the noise is coming from something hitting it's not really a rattle noise but at the same time it kind of is. When repairing all of this will the engine need to be pulled or is it possible to fix in the car. I have a video recorded of the noise but it will not...
I just purchased a 97 GSX with 120k on body and around 10k on engine rebuild. I paid very little for the car because the guy who sold it said he was hearing some kind of strange knock sound? So when i went to check it out it didn't sound like a rod knock or anything very threatening but at the...
