OEM or Gates...

I say keep the GST, save up money and down the road grab a 240 on the side. That's what I would do. I don't see a point in trading a car that you worked hard on for a car that you don't know much about. If it was a close friend of yours and you knew about the car inside and out then maybe, but...

Kinda off topic there aren't you buddy? lol.

Check to make sure all the bolts are out, make sure it's in neutral, and if you need to try to twist it a little and tap it softly with a rubber mallet to try to losing it up.

+1 on that. The 2.4L block is very nice with used with a 1G head, not to mention you don't have to worry about buying another block.

I doubt it removes heat, but a pic would get you more and better answers.

The motors are the same, the only difference is 6 bolt and 7 bolt. You just need to get a AWD transmission, t case, drive shaft and rear end if it's not already on the car if you plan on keeping it AWD.

I would get it welded at a shop, or just use JB weld.

1992 audi 100. :DGrad present. I still have it too. :)

You either: spliced into a wrong wire, have a shortage, or the radio is using too much power.

Lol, I figured that. For those that didn't know the pic is right on the avatar. lol. ROFL

+1 on that. :thumb:

Amazing how people come in here and throw turbo cars around when the thread isn't even about turbo car advise or comments. I believe the question was asked about a Eclipse RS NOT GST, GSX, or TSI...Seriously people learn to read!!

The only way you can check the head is take it do a machine shop and get a magnaflux test done.

I would be too busy trying to drink it. In fact I'm drinking some right now. HAHA!
