I have a 98 NA Eclipse. Tonight while I was driving I hit a bump and the engine just died. I cranked it over and nothing, cranked and cranked and still no fire.So I disconnect the battery and wiggle some wires around the transmission. I reconnect the battery and as soon as I turn the key...

I tried to find something about this but I guess I didn't locate what I want to know.Is the short block the same as the 420a Eclipse?Block, rods, pistons, crank, etc...etc...My buddy has a 420a Eclipse and I have a 2.0 Neon engine and the only main differences I can see so far are the...

I'm getting ready to have my aftermarket internals balanced. Having this stuff balanced would make it internally balanced right? So do I require a fluid damper/external balancer or not?I am just curious about what all I need to take to the machine shop.

I'm making a wallpaper, and a cell phone skin (iphone/razr/etc) and was wondering if anyone had any high res pictures of their car they would like to donate to the cause.I'm looking for a 2G DSM, either Black, Blue, Gray, Green, or Purple in color.If interested in being a part of my...

Is this a good, reliable FPR for use with a 4g63t ?Holley Performance Products Boost Compensating Universal EFI 512-505

I am trying to find a list of bolt sizes for the 4g63/4g64. I would like an entire chart of what bolt (size/length/grade) goes in which location on the entire engine block, front case, etc. I did a little search but really didn't find what I was looking for, and I even tried looking on...

Okay so I was looking at some DSM pics and came across this blue DSM with Snap-On on the doors, either a decal, or painted, and the car is covered with this Hexagon with an S in the middle of it... Has anyone seen this before? I don't want to sound like an ass, or be mean but that was one...

I have recently been thinking about stopping my 2.3L stroker build and selling my 2.0L block and stroker pistons and buying a 4g64 block and some wisecos for it and go that route. I've read a few threads and visited a site talking about using the 1g head with a 2g or 3g 4g64 block.7 bolt...

Is there anyone who manufactures billet valve covers for the 4g63 ?I've tried looking on Google, and other forums but I'm not finding anything so I figured I would ask on here. :)

Can someone tell me why most Eclipses with the Mitsubishi Three Diamond logo/decal on their hood usually have it look like it's running off the hood covering part of the fender on the side the decal is placed? Have been curious if there was an actual reason, or if it was done once and everyone...

My exhaust manifold says it is set up for a 38mm wastegate but I was curuious if a 40mm wastegate will fit on it if I bore/hone out where the flange is on the manifold... If that makes sense.

Has anyone had any parts anodized? I've been thinking about having my valve cover (and a few other things) anodized rather than powder coated, and I just wanted to know anyone on here who has had it done, or might have pics of their parts that have been treated.I like anodized parts over...

Just curious, I have a 7bolt setup... I have an eagle 100mm crank, and eagle h-beam rods, my buddy is building a 7bolt stroker with an OEM 2.4L crank and eagle h-beam rods.Is there a clearance issue with the 7 bolt block with either oem/aftermarket crank and eagle h-beam rods?I looked...

I searched the topics for "Rebuild GT35R" but nothing turned up so I'm asking...What does it take to rebuild a GT35R? I've read that the GT series can't exactly be rebuilt but that the cartridge would need replaced all together. Is this expensive, does it need sent in or is it something I...

So my friend from school is here and wanted me to post this... he wants to build a 2G 2.3L stroker like mine. We've been on the lookout for a used Eagle 4340 100mm crank due to his funding and have not been able to find one.He has now decided he wants to go ahead and buy an OEM 2.4L crank...

Well my revised lifters arrived so i decided that I'll go ahead and install them and then the rockers and the cams. Do I just let the caps pull the cams into their seat evenly across and then torque them in place? and how many ft/lbs are the cap bolts?1G SBR Stage VI Head, Crower 280 Cams...

Okay so I'll try to explain myself real well so you can understand what I'm trying to figure out.I have a 2G, bored .040 over (86mm) and it's a 2.3 Stroker. I have a Stage VI SBR head, 1mm over manley valves, crower 280 cams, and a JMFab clone, custom intake manifold. I've not got a...

It kind of looks like a DSM...I love how this car looks on the rear side. I wonder if I could get those tails and modify my car to take them. A little fiberglass work and yea, that would look nice IMO.

I don't really know where else to look or post this question so I'll put it here. May a moderator move it where it need be if this is the wrong place.I'm trying to find someone who can, or knows someone who can modify my valve body in my 96 TSI (auto)AWD transmission. I've bought the...

So my head arrived, I'm pretty excited. What do you guys think? (my cell phone pics are rather crappy but it's all I got right now). The stuff on the surface is tape from the foam padding that was pressed on the bottom of the head.

So, This week I am looking to buy a new throttle body. Just curious if 90mm is too much or not enough for a...2.3L Stroker, GT35R or GT37R (or equivalent) with a SBR Race head, BC280 cams, 1mm O/S Manley SS Valves, (no exhaust manifold yet) , custom SMIM (jmfab clone), 1060cc Injectors...

Would a Bosch 400/lph inline pump be a good way to go for my engine build (check profile).I really dont want to go with 2 walbros, or a walbro, and then another inline.

I'll be the first to admit I know nothing about turbochargers. I have been looking at different builds, and setups and looking at turbos here and there. I came across a brand new Garrett turbo that says A/R .65 .89 M-24 on it but I'm not too sure of what that means, or if it's a good size...

I'm trying to find a good throttle body to use on my stroker. I know a lot of people go for the Q-45 throttle body but I am looking at maybe Holley/MSD, BBK, or Accufab.What is a good size to use for my build? I was thinking 85mm - 90mm would be good, but I dont want to have something...

Has anyone here ever seen, or heard of delivering fuel from the FPR right into each injector without having a fuel rail? I dunno where I saw it in the past, but I saw a 4g63 engine that did not have a fuel rail, it had the 4 injectors with lines going right to the injectors from the FPR...

So after all these months of having by 96 Black TSi AWD my wife decided she wanted a DSM also. She didn't care if it was an Eclipse or Talon because either way she wanted to put a Blitz kit on it or stick with the 99 Eclipse style on whatever we got.Well after weeks of searching...

As the title says, Does this port job look good, and usable? I bought this head off Craigslist for $150 shipped and just thought I'd get input before I either resold it or put it to use on my engine and just took my stock head in to be machined...

Just looking to see if there is any real noticeable or physical difference in the 4g64 crank in the specified years. I was just curious why places are selling 95-97 and 98-99 cranks for 2G/7bolt.

I am kind of in a pickle. I bought a Ported head, that is clean as a whistle. It looks great and the ports all look really clean. I turn it over to check out the valve seats and to me it seems that the exhaust valve seats are the exact same size as the intake valve seats. I was told the...

Today I decided to unpackage my head that came with my stroker engine setup I bought from a private person. The engine has not been assembled or messed with since returned from the shop. The shop bored the block .040 over and ported and surfaced the head.I haven't taken any pics yet...

Hey guys. I bought a 420a/Neon Megasquirt but my car is a 96 Talon with a 7 bolt (4g63) I'm building. I need to mod this Megasquirt to work with my 4g63.The Megasquirt says on the bottom....MS3-0277. Neon/420a. 255kpa Map. MSnSpark Extra Version: 029vI've been told by...

Ok I'm wondering... Can I use a 2G without the CAS? I've got a MegaSquirt ECM, running v3 with MSnSpark Extra. I was under the impression I could use just the crank sensor, is this not true? My MegaSquirt does not have support built in for the CAS on my 2G and if I dont have to use it...

Okay well since my stroker piston situation and much frustration I had decided to have Arias build me a set of 86mm custom stroker pistons for my 2G build but I do think I'm going to scratch that idea as having custom pistons made at 86mm would cost too much. They supply 85.5mm and my block is...

So, like a few of you all know I've decided to build a Stroker. I found a performance shop in Texas who sold me a set of (NIB) 2G Arias custom stroker pistons a little cheaper than going with many of the resellers (as is) so I bought them. I got the pistons and they looked great. I put...

So my buddy has a 94 Eclipse that had a 1G SMIM on it. He bought it that way and some how it has blown apart. We are not sure what brand it is but it looks exactly like the 1G JMF Race manifold shown here: 1G JMF SMIM but it does not have the etched name on top.The welds aren't what blew...

This thread is only seeking those who have built 7 bolt engines. I dont care weather it is a 1G or 2G 7 bolt engine. I just want to make sure everyone knows that this thread isnt about a debate on weather a 6 bolt is the best and that all 7 bolts crankwalk. Dont even go there with the...

I have a block from an Eclipse. I do not know which block it is. It is just a bare block and has this casting on the side of it. (front: XJ1852) (back: 3K) Anyone know if this is a 1G or 2G engine? I do know it is a 7 bolt but that is all I know. It's too late to call the...

On a 1993 1.6L Automatic, what, at the minimum must be removed to lift the head off the block? I have a 1993 Elantra with a Mitsu 1.6L engine (in the car) and it has a brand new head gasket which has either debris on it, or is already bad because it is allowing exhaust pressure to escape into...

So I was offered a 92 Elantra which is in very nice condition aside from a blown head gasket. The kid told me it had either a (swap) Mitsu 1.8, or 2.0 in it with the Hyundai valve cover. The engine does look the same but I am starting to think it's either going to be a 1.6, or 1.8... DOHC...

Have you had your 2G block, crank, rods, pistons, rings cryogenically treated? I'm looking to see who all has had this done, what you paid, and if you've noticed any increase in the life of your parts, the strength in your block/crank, and the life of your piston rings. There is a company...

I'm sure this has been discussed many times but I'm still having trouble finding what I want.I'm trying to find a package deal on gaskets, seals, o-rings, oil pump, water pump, belts, and everything needed for them. I dont need pistons, rods, rings, bearings, as I have a stroker kit...

So this girl who married my wifes brother has a 93 Eclipse FWD N/A. She asked me if I'd be interested in it. It will require an ECM as the girl is so dumb that she let someone buy it from her without knowing exactly what it was. She told me to make her an offer on her set price of $200. It...

How exactly does the 4G63 fire if 1/4 and 2/3 are in the same position at all times?If the firing order is 3214... How can 3 and 2 fire, then 1 and 4 fire? 1 and 4 are at TDC together... Maybe I'm just not understanding this...

Well I've tried to find some information about the difference/gain between these coils. I have an MSD DIS-2, and a SRT-4 Coil pack to use on my Talon. I am looking to see if anyone has a comparison between these two. I know a lot of people say after market coils are better and especially MSD...

What do you guys think as of right now me using my Keydiver chip in my Talon until I can get DSMLink?I figured I could send it in and have it modified/edited for the $20.00 for now based on what I have done, such as the engine, intake, tb, head, cams, DIS-2, etc. I just dont think I'm...

I have a 2.4L Stroker engine. 2G Setup. 4G63 Block, .040 over Eagle 4G64 100mm Crank (cryo treated) Eagle HBeam Rods Arias .040 Stroker Pistons 9.1:1 CR 2G Fully Ported Head, 5angle grind, bronze guides, and bigger valve seat. High Flow Fuel Rail, and have FIC 1050cc injectors coming.I have...

How do you guys feel about MegaSquirt? How many people here are using MegaSquirt as a piggyback? I'm looking to decide weather to use my MegaSquirt or buy DSMLink on my Stroker. I feel it would be easier to go with the MegaSquirt and that it would have more tuning options for the...
