Sorry to wake a post from 10+ years ago, but I'm wondering how much HP a stock 420a will push if just going with this list. (No forged internals)I'm just looking to get around 200hp on my 97 RS (added rear calipers) leave it FWD as my location in Canada is next to impossible to find parts for...

Whew, thanks lol....probably doesnt put out enough power

K....noob here....especially on the mechanical side of these DSM's....i can do wear and tare and conversions but this whole BS delete or not to delete has got my paranoia up and brain boggled....I have a 97 420a....is the BS Belt still a concern? I also only have this car as a showcar project...

Your method of getting the GS brake cables was spot on, its super easy to connect everything on the bench first then just run the cable then screw in the cable mounting brackets,, then attach the cables under the centerconsole area..instead of having the cable disconnected and trying to attach...

So did my swap finally today, didnt get it completed but the ebrake cables are ran, and mounted, backing plate and parking brake assembly installed....took 4 hours to get this far, but im working out of my father inlaws garage and trying to find anything in there is total hell. (I hate working...

For future reference for 2g DSM....Rockauto.com sells the 2 prong switch under 1999 Eclipse electrical switch & relayhttps://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/mitsubishi,1999

Its the switch.... pulled the white plastic rod out and tried to start the car, wouldnt turn over, pressed it back in and car would turn over. Removed the whole clutch pedal bracket and master cylinder (have to replace master cylinder anyways) in order to get the bracket out. Going to attempt to...

Ya just for regular road use, only issue i think will happen is if the garage goes to start it and just happens to be some kid or someone not firmilar with manuals, they will try to start and see it tries to start in gear then give me a hard time about it....$60 part from the dealer plus their...

If it was already safetied i would probably do just that, however trying to get it mechanical safety road inspection done ill probably have to replace it.... it looks pretty rusty around the switch so im thinking its safe to assume its toast on the inside

This is all i could find around the clutch pedal....it appears the rubber that presses that push button has broken. But the white push button still moves... maybe the spring inside is not pushing out the white rod enough so the sensor thinks the clutch is always pressed enough and allows it to...

Damn....my car will turn over with the clutch pedal up or down but the car wants to launch. Im just worried they will give me a hard time for a safety cert if that is not in there

Ffs.....this isnt available in Canada through Napa.... going to try extreme PSI.... not sure why my 97 M/T 420a non-turbo doesnt have one.... should i be looking for this part or the Transaxle Position Switch? (I read in the manual its for A/T)

2021 and this thread came in handy, added a pick to the post for any Ontario Canada owners looking for a replacement weather stripping for the rear hatch window.I was under the impression when i dismantled the rear hatch that the previous owner had not done anything to it....after...

I read about that also in another forum, honestly at this point im going to take what i can get, here in Canada all these vehicles have been crushed, salvage yards wont even acknowledge my requests and anything i find as "part outs" has sat in the grass fornyears and they r rotted out...

That seems to make more sense cuz visually it didnt seem like the calipers were going to be able to bolt on. So the cables on my 97 RS are going to be a bit longer right? So i should purchase the stock cables from a model that comes stock rear calipers. Ill take a look at your guide shortly once...

Threads alive!!! Lol thanks for the info, ill creep him on FB and let him know someone from here told me to msg him, but ill also get ahold of him @Miller import. Much appreciated, was super disappointed when i priced out the complete drum brakes and then the complete rear disc brakes.....only...

Hate to be that guy that brings a thread back to life over 10 years later lmao. But does anyone know if i can mod my rear drum brake back plate so i can put calipers on? To me it doesnt make sense for it to actually work...but ya'll smarter then me on this stuff lol.Im having a HELL of a time...

Jonathan Ouellette submitted a new DSM Profile :Replica and movie described buildRead more about this vehicle here...

Hello,Little intro, got my 1997 eclipse RS from my brother after 5 years of bugging him to sell it to me, he finally caved and its all mine. I am slowly plugging away at repairs but doing a complete over haul as i want to make this car a peice to show off my skills and efforts. I am currently...
