Ok I have an issue with my 1996 Eclipse RS.I had the motor rebuilt a while back(october) blew the motor in it about a week after, the car has been sitting since as its winter and no time to work on it.
I went to take a look into it and i tried to remove plug #4....Well the plug will...
You should be able to get a part for the car at your local chrysler/dodge dealer, I had to get parts for mine. Just dont tell them i need "X" part for my 97 Mitsubishi, instantly they will say we dont have that and look at you like "why in the hell would we carry import parts". Tell them its for...
I am not sure that the B&M FPR works on the Non-turbo 2g motor. I believe its for the 2G Turbo 2.0, If you want to know just call the summit tech line and ask them they will tell you better than anybody else on here has......since none of us have given you a direct answer.
You can build the motor up with low compression pistons. Most people i have seen on here get the Hahn or Star Stage II turbo kits and run them on no more than 8psi of boost untill they can afford the bottom end rebuild. Some people on here will probably disagree until they tunr red in the face...
Ok lets say i have the Star Stage I such as raven has, and i want an intercooler. The hahn is the better upgrade i understand but the piping will not line up. So if thats the case then how would a person go about getting the piping to line up.
Where i live there isn't a exhaust shop that i...
Ok so max of 5psi on a stock motor without intercooler will be alright for a little bit?What kind of things do i need to replace on the bottom end? i know rods and pistons, but can i use the original crankshaft? or do i need new one?
$150 doesn't seem to bad, i was looking foward to about 300$ :thumbdownSo can i go to a Chrysler dearl to get this then? only Mitsubishi dealer close is 3 hours away.
any idea as to what i can expect for an average 1/4 mile run time? considered everything is running good.Why would i not be able run anything over 4 psi without a intercooler?The stage one without intercooler run i think up to 7PSI maybe lower, i wouldnt think it would be a big...
go to the dealership?I dont like the sound of that one bit, every time i have been to a dealer for parts its outrageous!By chance would you know how much its gonna run me?
Any Chance an MLS gasket for a Neon DOHC would work?
What would you recomend i do for internals if i install a stage one now and add the intercooler later.I will probably want to up the amount of boost to what a stage II says and thats about it.
Time to get this done is not an issue with me. I know its gonna take a while for me to save up for a kit, along with the internals.I planned on building the old motor if block is still good with forged internals also.
My goal for this car is not to be the fastest car out there or kill...
Ok i have decided to go turbo after reading some depressing threads about the N/t 420A.my question for you is, if i get the Stage I kit now and i want to add a FMIC to it later can i do it?i see the Hp output of the stage I is about 200at the crank. What gives the Stage II kit the...
After reading the the thread about who has the fastest N/t and another about beating a Z24 cavi. I was going to do an all motor setup but after reading through these threads its obvious what needs to be done.
I am looking into the Star Stage II kit, or simply the Stage I to start off. I...
What does an RS run bone stock??I used my G-tech when I first bought my car with no mods and I ran a 16.3 . I know the G-tech is not EXACT but its off by .1-.2 of second, My buddy used it at a drag strip so we would know if the thing worked.Anyways with those mods i know it wont...
my reason for a neon head was just because i have found a lot of them for really cheap and that was the only reason.After more research i have found it wont work as the valve sizes are different
I know the cams would be on opposite sides, thats why i asked. What if i was to flop the cam around so it would line up....kinda dumb ? to ask but i figured what the hell
Ok first off let me say i know quite a bit about both motors and i know they are pratically identical to eahc other. i know the head of the neon is different in the fact that the Intake is on front and exhaust is out back, Opposite of the Eclipse. Oh and i have the 420A motor just to clear that...
I am looking into a New motor, but not untill i find out whats wrong with mine first. I am gonna pull that head off when it warms up again to see what i have done.I am not too hooked on having the fastest car or most HP to the wheels, I am looking for a little better get up and go and stick...
Ok here is the situation.I have 1996 Eclipse RS with 150k miles, i blew the motor, not sure exactly what yet but i know i cannot get number 4 plug out.Here is what i was gonna do.I am extremely poor right now, and i would like to get the car back on the road, but would like...
I bought a cheap one off ebay, actual cold air intake, with a K&N filter for about $30.I like the performance of that intake but have ditched that one now for my new AEM V2 intake. It looks good now but i cannot wait to install it.Just about any CAI setup is gonna work for our motors...
Hey i am also undergoing a rebuild of my 96 rs as well.First off if your losing oil you may want to check out the bottom end as well for such things as, oil pan gasket or main seals. Also you may need to re ring the motor but i think you would burn more oil if it needed to to be re...
Dodge underated the HP output to also help keep insurance costs down for the drivers due to a price break at 215hp, at least here in Mn there is.And yeah the Import craze is almost coming to an end it seems. for instance i read this in Super Street or on of my many other mags... thought i...
i wasn't trying to start any fight or anything just saying, gotta give dodge props for finally getting into the tuner market with an fairly good competition car. And yeah SRTGurl is the one i was talking about she walked all over the Viper R/T 10, if you missed it its in the link in my last...
My buddy is a member of the neon.org forum and he has a SOHC motor but this works the same for our DOHC motors. If you go out a find a 2.4 bottom end, to replace your stock 420A bottom end its supposed to be one of the best upgrades for an all motor application. And yes they do bolt up. I am not...
Hey guys i have seen many of these SRT-4s and they in my opinion are the sweetest neon on the road.If you guys dont think they are all that much than you should read up more if you haven't done so. i have seen A LOT of cars built up fall when lined up to these.
If you want to see a sweet...
Now they are some REAL hard ballas!! LMAOAnd i thought we had some fake punks where i live. They tink they are balling cuz they have chrome wheels, dont look like 20s+ to me anybody else???
I know they are just messing with me i dont mind. I do have one DSM on the team....its mineIts a 96 Red Eclipse RS with 17" ADR, CAI, Ngk plugs, Ractive exhuast. and minor interior upgrades.only problem is the motor is gone...again and i am not sure how much longer i am going to own...
Well thanks for your thoughts, and we are not all in school and the cars there aren't all of them. Grand Prix is a total loss after this summer.
I am not sure why Admin is having troubles with spelling so bad but i pointed it out to him. And the German thing i have no idea whats up with that...
Yeah the spelling is thanks to the Admin, I thought he would have been more carefull about it. I suppose i should get on that and make it right so it looks good.
Hey I just wanted to say whats up and Merry Christmas to Everybody.I haven't been a member Of dsmtuners for long but i have learned a lot from you all. Anyway Me and Some friends have started a local car club as you could call it. We are looking for more members to join. We have a web site...
I have had my Rs up to 140 plenty of times, top speed so far is about 145ish. I also have a beretta GTZ which i would much rather race in anytime. Speedo goes to 120 but i am doing about 125 when i shift outa 4th and i am hitting anywhere from 145-150 EASY in this car.
i was actually going in that direction...buying all new stuff, but then this came up so i figured i would ask on here and see if it was worth it. I was looking at buying the ricekiller block from Faster than you performance, is that place good to buy from? and is it worth it. To me it seems like...
Ok guys i have found some stock internals for sale on another forum from a 420A motor, the guy is selling the Rods and Pistons for 30$ i am unsure of the milage but i am guessing pretty low the guy bought all new internals and has no use for the stock ones any more.My question is, should...
ok so then i see you all don't have the answers thats what i thought. now what are my options on rebuilding the dang 420A?? as far as new rods and all that, if i was to turbo that motor than what compression do i run? And where do i find a new head for a good price? As far as the bank goes for...
if your not offering any help than simply don't reply to the damn thread man, i need to know how and what exactky needs this Custom fabrication you all speak of, if its just mounting the motor nd trans than obviously you all have to much money and are not willing to try this, just because on guy...
ok first off. I HAVE SEARCHED THROUGH THE DAMN THREADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I am going to attempt this " Impossible" swap of the 420A-4G63TWhat i want to know is what kinda modifications need to be done to the motor and transmission mounts, IE, the crossmember.
I also...
ok first off i have experience in motor swaps like these, i swapped in a 3800 supercharged motor out of a 98 Grand Prix into my 96 lil different yes but same concept. You have to make a wiring harness that is compatible with the factory. And the mag i read used a 2gn 4g63 already in the car but...
i dont want the all wheel drive, its just the motor and tranny i would need pluse the oth accesories, i read an article in the new Modified mag and it talks about it in there. I may not have worte the correct engine code in first, i remember its the mitsubishi motor w/ turbo. I was goin to...
ok so i want to swap motors in my 96 rs i have the 420A, i want the 4g63 with the turbo , i have a place nearby where i can buy the entire car, its a 91 laser with the 6 bolt flywheel, and i know my car has obd II but i want to know how hard it would be to wire up all this stuff i can get the...
yes you can use the bottom end of a neon DOHC or SOHC the two blocks are indeed identical to one another, My Friend has a 96 Neon with the SOHC 2.0 and he knows a lot on the neons and we checked around through are sources and what we got was this. The only difference is in the head, the DOHC...
join the club i am also doing an all motor setup, i am goin with 10.5-1 pistons,rods, Moroso Oil pan, Head work, cams, Springs, and lash lifters. 50 Shot of NOS port and polish intake manifold and bigger tb. What are your goals for hp/ 1/4 times? any, you should have an idea of what you would...
ok i want to get some lowering springs but i would like to know whats the lowest i can go on my 2gn without problems. I want to keep it strettable so nothing to low i like th slamed look but i don't know what amount of drop to get and what kind to get either, i suppose its a personal preference...
Ok i am as some of you know in the progress of build my motor this winter and its turned out to be quite a parts list, i was wondering about these fluidyne radiators, i hear the aluminum radiators are supposed to help cool better and are lighter than stock(not much weight there anyways) but i...
thanks guys appreciate the help, i am not goin get it on the car right away anways, winter is almost here and the car is away for the rest of the year untill i get her built up again. But i definately know now what works and what doesn't!
well i knew i have 4 wheel braking all cars do unless you make it other wise, i want to know what is it going to take to change my drums over to discs in the rear of my 96 RS? I found what i beliveive is all i need but just to be sure i would like a second opinion, also do i need to switch...
the hood i want but can't ever seem to find for my car is called the TYPE MS hood. i was thinking this or the OEM CF one, but this will make the front end more agressive looking, anybody know where i can get one>
thats what kinda wheels they look like to me, but now days they are starting to look more and more the same you know> love the car though, i was even thinking about painting my eclipse yellow as well but i dunno, kinda have the red and white thing going right now.
i got mine off EBAY shipped and everything included, Pipes REALLY nice K&N style filter not like a cheapy looking one chrome end and good filter material, the mounting bracket and some really good couplers for the pipes to come together. All this for 48$ actual intake price was 28$ but then...
I have the 96 420A motor in my eclipes so i should run a wet set up then right??? just so i am clear on my nitrous set up before i buy . I will be running 10.5-1 pistons and cams, header, intake, exhaust etc.. so i was thinking about a simple 50 shot, but then if i wanted to go higher than that...
i have tried quiet a few different ones, i found that in my car the OUTLAW sport compact brand worked or seemed to work the best when i poured it into a full tank of 92 octane gas. Just kinda do a trail and error basically to find which one/ones work best for you
