You know, I just don't really like the front bumper and OEM headlight design of the 1995/1996 Eclipses...I had one, I bought one brand new in 1995, but I saw the later years 2GB and I always thought they looked much better... so now, I have two 2GBs, and I want to use the front 2GA foglights as viper fangs in my 2GB aftermarket BOMBER bumper, so it will look really cool...like viper fangs ready to bite! But OEM 2GA front bumpers are kinda ugly... JMO
Looking at a side by side internet photo of a 1995 GA and a 1997 GB, I'd have to agree. It was enough to make me look online for GB skirt and bumpers. A change is in order. After I bleed the slave and master cylinders, replace if needed, followed by draining and replacing the gear oil. Going to go with the Redline 90. Dot3 for the clutch.
 
The simplest reason was that I wanted to upgrade my stock brakes to stop from 125mph+ trap speeds without increasing the cars unsprung weight.

The most common off the shelf big brake kit thats affordable are the stock Evo Brembos but the rotor/caliper are ~30lbs a corner and these are 13.7lbs.

Also, because I installed the JDM Galant knuckle the caliper ears on the knuckle match the Evo Brembos so if I do move into road racing/autox where heat/brake fade become a serious issue I have a better aftermarket for front brake kits since I can shop for any big brake setup that would fit an Evo.
Cool. Thanks for the feedback, was curious. I had built mine for road course right out the gate. So all the suspension components/bits were all upgraded as well as the rotors/calipers. Not really putting a lot of thought into the weight of the rotors. I just needed the greatest stopping power possible so I could brake as late as possible when diving into a turn. It just so happened that my Talon was decent at the quarter mile too.

Put the trans in, bled the clutch, hooked everything up, topped off all the fluids, had to peace a few things that was missing together. Hoses and clamps and what not. But after it was all said and done..!!

Wiped the dirt off my spare EVO 2/3 intake manifolds. Now I got motivated to go back with the EVO intake manifold again on my 2g. I am wavering between staying the stock and going back the EVO intake manifold :hmm:

Go with the Evo for sure, such a capable little intake manifold.

Yeah I know, I'm a fan of EVO intake manifold, too. I had had it on my 2g but I returned to the stock manifold some years back. Now I want to use it again!
 
I managed 9's on mine, crammed 74lbs/min of air through it
I watched the video before, congrats and great work! You showed the EVO intake manifold possibility to people. My 2g is totally not for drag racing, so I don't really care the top end power but I do about low/mid end. That's why I went back to the stock manifold, but now I want it back.

Having that in a 2g does it give you more clearance between the mani and firewall? I use a ported 1g manifold and its a super tight squeeze for me back there and am thinking about getting something a little more compact but capable.

The depth (the farthest point from the head, the vacuum port for brake booster) is almost the same as 1g's. But you would have more room around the manifold because the surge tank is smaller and rounded, also the height is lower because the runner is shorter than 1g's.

Thanks Hiroshi for taking the time to set all that up i really appreciate it! This will definitely help me decide:D
 
Working on getting the electrical up to date and made the cutest little thing. Lol
Well they say keep your grounds as short as possible, I think I'm good :D:D. By the way that is a 1AWG cable.

thats some nice work indeed
 
Started mine also and noticed that my WB is staying full lean. Drove it a half mile down the road and back. She didn't run good but didn't run bad. I can smell the E85 (my cutout is right below the drivers door) so I assume my free air calibration finished it off. I am thinking the sensor just decided to quit but I will try one more calibration before I order a new one.

How old is the sensor? They seem to have such a short lifespan.
 
This one is 2 or 3 years old. I have a spare in stock so I can "test" to see if it's the sensor or the controller. I have a spare controller also. It is mounted in the Morrison Fab heatsink bung and I really haven't had any problems until now. Isn't that always how it goes? You think everything is "DONE" and something takes a dump. DSM Life for sure!
 
Over the holidays I bled the brakes, re-aligned the front suspension, then drove around the block bedding in the pads. It felt like there was still some air in the lines so before I put the car back up on jack stands to bleed the brakes again, I took the opportunity to take a photo of it next to the new DD I picked up last month.
