I have the evo 3 swap in my 2g, when I got my engine it came with the regular single layer gasket, as soon as I saw that I ordered up the 4 layer gasket and arp's. I also sent the head off just to get cleaned up. The cylinder walls were gorgeous, perfect cross hatching the engine was in great...
I ordered up the blue Magstars from work yesterday, they came in today and appear to be of pretty good quality. As for performance I wont know till this summer when the car is done. Dont wanna punish the baby here in the winter.
I think I have figured my problem out, I believe my ecu is shot thats why its running on such a shitty map. My reason for thinking the ecu is shot is we pulled some major sensors and no codes were thrown. i am throwin a new ecu in this week hopefully that will cure most of the problems. any...
the 70 is at idle im not quite sure what it is under full boost i know the car needs a new iac motor so the idle is rough maybe the car needs a good tuning.
i did the evo3 swap and the car was bogging down bad at idle. I have an afpr by buschur racing on the car now but the only way i can get the car to idle decent it to turn it way up kinda scared to tell u what im at but its 70 psi on 450cc injectors whats goin on here? hit me backDerek
:dsm: i paid $300 for all of my piping, which is all stainless steel mendrel bent piping, full 3 inch down pipe and the full greddy cat back system. It pays to be great friends with the owner of a top muffler shop in northeastern florida plus have the benefit of him doing an insurance claim on a...
I am completeing my Evo 3 swap and have a few plugs left over. I have looked everywhere for an online wiring diagram for a 2g 95 GST same with the vaccum diagram. If someone could hook me up it would be greatly appreciated.Derek
GSXNXS Im moving back to LaCrosse in a month is there anything good in the area? Id like to start a crew or just start a meet like once a week or something, get back at me let me know what we have in the area.Derek :dsm:
The toda ran me about $350 which a lot of people will say is a lot for cam gears but sometimes you have to pay the extra to get the quality you want. Im sure the AEM cam gears would have done a fine job but looks is a part of it and none of those colors are really in my scheme. High Gloss black...
Allan if I had a helmet to give you I would because Im starting to think you need one pretty bad. If you did your research the Evo I-III has a similar set up to the 7bolt 2g with a few minor differences. Evo 4-8 so far are all flipped around and sit like the 420A.
My evo 3 swap is almost complete in my 96 GST. I will post pics and my reaction to how it feels Ive upgraded quite a bit so there will be a little bit of a reaction to the performance side of it.
Your 2g head will drop right onto your Evo 3 block. While your at it you might as well put in some ARP head studs. Any upgrades you plan on doing just look for 2g parts. If you want EVO 3 specific parts a couple companies you might wanna check JUN or Toda racing.
The Evo I-III will work in the 2g Eclipse. If you notice the IV-VIII are all 180 degree different with the turbo and intake on the opposite side. I actually found the engine down here in St. Augustine, It was kinda weird I actually stumbled into it when I was lookin for the jdm 6bolt
whats up man, Im doing the evo 3 swap in my 96 GST. As far as the mods just look for 2g 4g63 parts, for the most part they are the same. The only thing Ive changed on my engine is the cam position sensor which isnt difficult at all. If you have any other questions hit me up on AIM - BigyD69 I...
That would be awesome to have a meet sometime in the spring. A few people know Im moving back at the end of March so I will be able to participate or even help plan something. :dsm:
Recently I sent my turbos up to Jacksonville to get rebuilt, well just my luck the ball bearings were crushed in both turbos, well here the dilema should I let them go ahead and rebuild the evo III 16g or should I go ahead and buy a new one for 570 plus upgrades from machv. Oh yeah the rebuild...
Well I still got the kit for bellow wholesale so I feel better now, I didnt mean to stir up hostility I was just really happy with the price I got also with the car I wont have to drive it in the snow reducing the chance of destroying it, well the kit atleast
Not to brag or anything but when I move back Wisconsin in March and when winter hits next year I will be storing my eclipse and driving something else. Maybe Im just fortunate who knows :laugh:
So your saying they are gonna tear down every engine clean all the cylinder walls and the heads and everything before they ship them over here u have got to be kidding me. They are not going to rehone the cylinder walls before they send them over they are not gonna make sure there is no carbon...
Are you saying you can get the buddy club 2 kit for 380 plus 66 and change shipped??? Explain that one and then I will tell u my price for the kit.
Lemme know cuz my buddy works for bc2 and takes all the ordersDerek
I dont know about everyone else who has bought a jdm engine but mine was in damn good shape. We pulled the head to replace the head gasket and everything was beautiful. No carbon deposits on the valves the crosshatching was still very very apparent on the cylinder walls. The engine is even...
Hey guys I just picked up my buddy club 2 body kit today whats everyones favorite kit for the eclipse? Oh yeah I wont tell you how fat I got hooked up!!! hehe :laugh: :dsm:
They appear to be the same but the jdm 7bolt and usdm 7 bolt are different! Not only are the cam position sensors different but also the specs. A 2g GST or GSX come with 210 hp while a EVO 3 engine comes with 270 hp stock thats right 270 hp I would say thats quite a bit of an increase. Someone...
Hey guys,Ive never posted her before but I think it might be time considering Im movin back to my homeland. :-) I was wondering if there was anyone in the LaCrosse area that keeps up in here. I wanna know what Im lookin forward to when i move back I will be bringing a surprise. Lemme know...
Toda Racing makes a pretty killer stroker kit for all of the Evo 4g63s. Im thinking about picking it up for the Evo 3 engine im swapping into my GST. Theres no replacement for displacement. hehederek
Defiant,Why do you think it is that the previous owner in Japan used the race specific plug? I know they say to use a colder plug but wont a plug that produces and optimal spark work better? Lend me your knowledge and give me your suggestion on the correct plug to use.Thank you,Derek
Hey peeps, I have an update on the those plugs I found in my EVO 3. HOLY F_ _ K!!! 26.99/each Yeah thats insane. I did some research and cross refrenced what I found at work and came up with the part number 5855. They are Platinum, and they are race specific. Lemme know if you guys can find a...
Im just wondering if anyone else has run into this. I am in the middle of doing an EVO 3 swap in 96 GST. Well we have the 2 engines sitting side by side on engine stands doing some compare and contrast. Well I pulled the spark plugs out the EVO engine and there was a very noticable difference...
Where are you from? Salem? Well I lucked out on my jdm engine and they had one here where I live in Jacksonville. lemme know if u have a question.derek
I dont know the exact specs on the Evo III but Im sure its a little more aggressive than 2g eclipse. Im sure port sizes are a little different, the cams probably have a different grind maybe a little more aggressive. If you know the exact specs, post it, I would appreciate it.Derek :dsm:
Im glad to see people are talkin about this. Im in the middle of doin the EVO III swap into my 96 GST, hopefully it will be done in two weeks so I can send it into the shop to get the car painted. Lets keep this goin the more feedback the better.
I find it funny everyones stressin on where to find these plugs. Has anyone heard of Advance Auto Parts?? Yeah thats right, they carry the plugs. I just happend to pick up the last of the BPR7ES and BPR8ES from the store I work at. All you have to do is go there tell them to do a part...
hEY MAN WE NEED YOU IN jAX, AS FAR AS SPEEDSHOPS I GUESS THERES ONLY ONE YOU COULD REALLY EVEN CLASSIFY AS CLOSE. STAGE 6 DOES AN OK JOB ON THEIR STUFF BUT WE NEED MORE SHOPS ESPECIALLY DSM WISE.
