  1. Sorry Guys! I'm a traitor!

    I don't plan on doing any of those things. I definitely want to go with Angel Eyes headlights, maybe some altezza tails. Eventually lowering springs and 17" or 18" wheels (most likely from ADR wrapped in Kumho tires). And Injen intake. I'll do an exhaust only if I can find one that doesn't...
  2. Sorry Guys! I'm a traitor!

    I was looking at an SRT-4, but they never called me back. Oh well, their loss.
  3. Sorry Guys! I'm a traitor!

    I guess you could call me a traitor, but I traded my 1G in on a brand new Civic SI. I didn't have the time or money to keep putting into my 10 year old Laser that was starting to nickle and dime me to death, so I started looking around and was given the opportunity to buy a brand new Honda. I...
  4. Good place to get a Greddy Fuel pressure gauge?

    A buddy of mine owns an internet business dealing in aftermarket parts and he tries to sell at the lowest price possible and if paid in full, he'll have it shipped to your door. Check out Importdynamics dot com.
  5. Who Is The Fastest Dsm'er

    I would say Brent Rau has a pretty damn fast DSM with his 8 second Back Halved eclipse. But of course he's a professional and that car is diefinitley not street legal.
  6. What Brand Headlights Should I Buy

    I agree with the statement a couple above. The Hyper Industires bulbs are very good. I've also had no problems with the Nokya brand. Obviously PIAA bulbs are very good, but they are quite expensive also, if you can find them. You can change the foglight bulbs also. I was going to, but the...
  7. Clear Tails Tail Lights Taillights [Merged]

    I work at a performance shop and am always looking for tailights for the 1g's but have not found any yet. About the only difference I've heard of is someone in Europe was once offering trades of american spec tails with Euro spec tails. The difference is the Euro tails have and amber turn...
  8. 92-94 eclipse engines

    If the original engine was only a 1.8, it's most likely an RS. I believe the different models went as follows:RS = 1.8L FWD Non-Turbo GS = 2.0L FWD Non-Turbo GS-T = 2.0L FWD Turbo GS-X = 2.0L AWD TurboAnd to put a 2.0L Turbo engine in, you would most definitely have to change the...
  9. squawking noise on start up

    If it's kinda a squealing sound. It's most likely a worn or loose belt under the hood. Check those and replace them if needed. It's probably a good idea to change the timing belt anyway. The stock 1st Gens have a tendancy to slip or break the timing belt which can mean disaster for your head...
  10. NEW BODY KIT 91-93 Laser - talon WWW.ONDERGROUND-DESIGN.COM

    The picture your showing is on a 90-91 DSM. Those are the years that they had the flip up headlights. Does the kit then fit the 92-94 models with the stationary headlights? You say it's for the 91-93 models but there are two different models in those years.
  11. best place/price for a shop manual?

    People on Ebay are always selling Hayne's and Chilton Manuals fairly cheap. Not sure what a good price would be, cause I never really priced them out.
  12. Converting from a Talon to an Eclipse [Merged 3-8]

    As far as I know the fronts are the same between the talon and the eclipse the only difference is that both talon and eclipse changed the headlights from the 95-96 to the 97-99. That's when you have to change headlights to be able to fit a front bumper designed for one of those years to the...
  13. Rear View Mirror?

    My Rear view was also falling down. It turned out for me that the set screw that holds the mirror into the windshield mounting brakcet was missing. I just found a set screw that fit and put it in. Problem solved. Check for the set screw. It should be directly on the opposite side of the...
  14. Apex N1

    I have 2 friends with that exhaust. One on a Supercharged Integra and one on a Turbo Intregra, and they are both extremely loud. A little too loud in my opinion.
  15. Illegal Or Not?

    As far as I know, All the clear tails are illegal no matter what color bulbs you put in because there are no red reflectors in them in case you have the lights off or a bulb is burnt out. Most altezza style taillights are completely legal if they have a DOT stamp on the lense.
  16. Body Kits???

    Probably not! The front bumper and sideskirts will most likely fit, but the stock rears are different on the eclipse than on the talon. However, most places should allow you to mix a match kits, so you can still have the Blitz front and sides but pick a different rear that will fit the talon.
  17. Intakes Fer Dummiez?

    I have an Injen intake on mine and that fits the MAF just fine. (Check out my pics) But then again I have the 2.0, I'm not sure if Injen makes an intake for the 1.8. If you can find one for your car, the cheapest place I found for one was www.nipponpower.com at $189.99, Every place else...
  18. 2gnt swap with turbo possible?

    It's not really worth turboing the NT's either. With the stock internals of the NT engine, you won't be able to get more than 8 or 9 PSI of boost out of it without damaging the engine. You have to spend alot more money on lowering the compression of the engine with new pistons, valves, etc...
  19. civic si what?

    The "Cat" is the Catalytic Converter attached to the exhaust system underneath the car just behind the engine. It kinda looks like a little muffler. Hollowing the stock one out or just replacing it with a straight through performance cat will give the exhasut better flow therefore more...
  20. carbonfiber hood

    Try these sites! www.nopionline.com www.importfan.com Usually works better if you search under eclipse of the same year.
  21. Whp

    Wheel Horsepower. In Other words, How much HP at the wheels, instead of at the flywheel.
  22. ram air in 1g n/t! liar?

    Basically, all he probably did is open up the stock airbox and put in a standard drop in K&N filter or put on a performance intake. Then all you would have to do is pull out the passenger side Headlight, maybe cut away some of the radiator mount to clear more space in front of the intake...
  23. Didnt know Exactaly where to post this...

    I know the front bumper for 92-94's will not fit the 90-91's cause of the different headlights, butnot sure about the sides and rear.
  24. Wings

    A rear wing helps all cars with downforce. Even a front wheel drive will gain better cornering speeds with the extra downforce on the rear. But with a wing you will also produce drag which lowers your top speed on straights. Not to mention the added weight. Primarily though, wings are added...
  25. put in xenon bulbs

    Your Dims are 9006's, your Brights are 9005's, your inside blinkers are 1157's, I forget what bulbs go in the corners and foglights. All that info should be in your Owner's Manual.
  26. benefits of jdm engine

    Especially considering that all the 1 and 2G DSM's are made in Illinois. There really isn't a "JDM" engine so to speak. Hell, the 95-99 NT's are a Chrysler motor. So just upgrading your engine will do just fine.
  27. All-Motor Upgrades

    The cheapest way to gain speed and acceleration is to drop as much wieght from the car as you can. pull out spare tire, seats not in use, stereo equipment, whatever you don't need. Once you get an intake, you can remove the passenger headlight to get more direct cooler air which boosts...
  28. The Best Intake?

    You can't use universal K&N's with the first gen. It has to fit the stock airbox lid that has the Mass air sensor built into it. Or else where are you going to hook up the sensor. And yes, they have Injen Intakes for the 1G na's. I have one, you can see it in my gallery pics. Works great.
  29. Tires

    If you want to save some money, you could go with Kumho Ecsta Supra tires. Perform very well wet or dry, Z rated, and at the right places you should be able to pick up a set for $400 or less. I have Kumho's, and they ride so much nicer than my stock tires.
  30. 1G What upgrade brakes fit factory 16" wheels

    As far as everyday driving and short term racing goes, either are fine. A friend of mine cracked 2 different sets of cross drilled and slotted during heavy racing on a 4 mile road course, He's going with only slotted from now on.
  31. heat springs to slam?

    For springs a good place to look is on www.nopionline.com . But the Eibachs the were suggested in an earlier post won't give you the drop you want, only about an inch. Intrax are good springs (which I have) and drop 1.7 inches and Sprint Extremes go a full 2 inches.
  32. How much power?

    I just added an Injen Intake and Stainless High Flow Muffler. My question is how much HP do you think that added and how much more can I get from a header and cat or test pipe? This is on a 93 Laser RS with the 2.0 NT 4G63.
  33. the grind, what should i use!!!!

    Redline MTL and BG Syndroshift are the best for the tranny, although I've heard amazing things about Automatic Tranny fluid in manuals. And I think Candela is right about the Mobil 1 for engine oil.
  34. The Best Intake?

    Well! I'd rather have my job. I work at a small performance shop and get parts at dealer cost. I only paid $144 for my Injen Intake. $186 for Intrax springs. And $49 for my Maxspeed Stainless muffler.
  35. 1G 1.8 Eclipse, any Accleration Boosters?

    Well, you can open up the air flow with an intake, header, test pipe, or open cat, and a muffler or cat back exhaust. Better air flow through the engine increases horsepower and helps the engine run easier. And loose as much weight as possible, pull out stereo equipment, spare tire, seats...
  36. Are Neons Same As Dsm's

    As far as I know, the only similarity between the neon and the DSM's is that the engine in the neon is the same as the 95-99 2.0 NT DSM's. Not even the same intake will fit in the engine bay. I highly doubt springs are the same on both cars.
  37. Some Help Would Be Apreciated

    The turbo engines run a lower compresion than the non-turbos to allow for more boost. So putting a turbo on a stock 2.0 NT wouldn't help very much without completely redoing the interior of the engine to lower compression. Not to mention the proper exhaust work to allow for the increase in air...
  38. i need an ECu for 1G NT....?

    Someones almost always selling one on Ebay also.
  39. How much HP

    I belive the 1.8 is only about 96 hp stock. Just a guess, but I would say with everything you have done, you're a bit above the stock 2.0 which is 135hp, I would say even close 150hp. But that is merely a guess, when you get it back together, the best thing would be to find a Dyno and run it...
  40. mods mods mods.. HELP PLEASE

    First of all it's not impossible to add turbo, but it would be alot more expensive then $1000. Acutally it would just be cheaper to sell your car and buy a turbo DSM than add your own. For the Non-turbo DSM's, the most hp comes from freeing up the exhaust with a header, highflow cat, and at...
  41. Body kit for 1g!

    I've heard the Drift style Sideskirts only fit the eclipse. But the bumpers fit all. But 90-91 front bumpers are different than 92-94.
  42. sounds like its running on three, but compression checks out

    I had some bogging in low RPM's in my car also. It was still under warranty and took it in just to find out it was a simple as a bad plug wire. Try checking your spark plug wires and you might want to change them anyway.
  43. Tryin to find some good performance parts. 92 laser RS

    Go to www.nopionline.com and search under mitsubishi eclipse 1992. You'll find alot more parts than if you search under laser. And they will fit. You can also go to www.optauto.com or www.importfan.com I work at a small performance shop and we use those sites all the time.
  44. Where can i find an intake for a Turbo engine??

    I work at a small performance shop and we use www.nopionline.com for most of our parts. They have a very wide selection of parts by many different brand names.
  45. a rattleing sound

    The smoke is most likely an oil leak in your blown turbo. As far as the rattling sound, check all your heatshields. I just had a stainless steel muffler put on my 93 and they noticed 2 loose heat shields. I just had them take them off and that did reduce some rattling I had also.
  46. automatic vs manual

    If you go with a manual of automatic is completely up to you. Manual is alot more fun but can be a hassle if you do alot of city stop and go driving. But either way, it would be a good idea to at least learn how to drive manual, you never know when a situation may arise where you will have to...
  47. Resolved Plymouht Laser/Eclipse 1g relationship???

    www.asylumms.com has one kit for the 90-91 eclipse/talon/laser. But they are a pretty unreliable source. you could also try www.erebuni.net
  48. 1g Wheels and Tires Size Questions [merged]fit fitment

    You can find the proper size tires to fit the rims you choose for your car at some tire and wheel websites like www.tirerack.com and maybe www.discounttire.com .
  49. Resolved 1990 Plymouth 1.8L engine make?

    As far as I know, the only DSM's that run Chrysler engines are the 95-99 2.0 non turbos. I believe everything else runs a Mitsu engine.
  50. How do you buy the parts from the "parts guide" section?

    I work at a small retailer, but we rarely if ever ship out parts. I can recomend a couple distibuters websites for you if your interested.
