  1. VIN Locations

    XLNT info guys Thank You
  2. VIN Locations

    Not sure where else to post this sooo . . .I have come across a built race car but there is an issue finding a VIN on the chassis. The rules require there be a VIN on the car. I know it should be on the dash but the guy has not confirmed it. I have heard the VIN is also on the ECU on some...
  3. 98 GSX Time Trial build

    Interesting you had 4th gear problems. A car I was looking at also has 4th gear problems - won't stay in gear. Do you know if 4th gear is an issue with DSMs?The blown engine thing sucks - BTDT.

    You’re right, getting beat by a similarly equipped car would suck. Thing is the Neons look to have the best hp to weight ratio (based on published street car numbers) with the first gen Eclipse a close second.Interesting that you both mentioned the 420A. I was reading about weight distribution...
  5. 1G Don’t buy a pre fab roll cage

    I expect to have to do some fitting. Whose cage kit is it? I expect to be building an Eclipse hopefully soo.
  6. 1G Don’t buy a pre fab roll cage

    The pre fab roll cage you bought, was it prefabbed specifically for the car (year, make, model) you're building?

    Thank you for verifying on the engines. It looks like my choice will be between any years from 1991 to 2005, non- turbo, 2wd, 5sp, with a 2.0 or 2.4. I’m leaving out the 1990 as I’ve read they are a bit of an odd duck. I may post up another thread regarding which Eclipse the folks here might...

    Just skimming through your posts here and have a question re the trans issues. I am considering building an Eclipse to do some dirt oval racing and the sturdyness of the trans is of interest to me. When I road raced another car I was not really as kind to the trans as I could have been - my bad...

    As a racer at heart I prefer to have people following me. :D

    Thanks for the link Ludachris, I'm headed there now.

    About the clutch, I could probably get away with a stock “looking” clutch. The rules have us drill an inspection hole in the bellhousing. I read about a car that’s available that “pops out of 4th gear”. Is that a common problem? Likely a full rebuild I’m thinking.I’ve built, or rebuilt, a few...

    The rules use the term OEM a lot. But if you read the rules wearing sunglasses, with one eye closed and your head tilted, you might be able to stretch the meaning a bit wider than they would want you to. Don't know if links are OK here but here is a link to the rules...

    Hi all, new guy here and new to the Mitsu Eclipse world.I am in the process of finding a suitable car to run in IMCA Sport Compact oval dirt tack races. FWIW, Sport Compact is a very basic factory stock level of car prep. One of the possibilities, based mostly on horsepower to weight ratio, is...
