Im running into the same issues with my 95 gsx. also when i had my 97 gs it did the same thing. i havent figured out what it was/is. but from what i have seen and read it is a very common thing. ive already rulled out the ignition switch. any other pointers would be nice
i have a bunch of stuff for the gs for sale. greddy header and precat pipe. uni 2.5 inch cat. 2.5 inch cat back. injen intake. and a bunch of other stuff if your interested

A good friend of mine has a degree in welding, also went to school for classic car restoration. according to him this is fairly easy for him to fix. Im going to give him a shot. i would rather pay a friend than pay over priced shops for a job that may not pay off. atleast i will be there through...
Im sure other people have had this problem in the past. so im kinda wondering what your guys recommend me doing. and ways to possibly fix this. i bought this car and had it shipped to me. From what it looks, it looks like they welded it fast and threw a sealer on it to cover up open metal. My...
run a compression test. a lot of times that can give you a good idea weather or not it is the head gasket. also check for oil in your coolant and also check to see if your oil is watered down. i cant think of another test you can run off the top of my head. ill ask my buddy tomorrow. but i would...
i have a rebuilt 420a sitting in my garage. it was rebuilt to oem spec. full 2.5 in exhaust header back. header and flex pipe are greddy. msd coil and wires, injen short ram intake. and many more parts i cant think of at the moment.
i am stock for the most part. the cames my buddy was going to sell for 20 bucks. in the process of that i was going to install a set of 3g lifters. about the only thing i have is a fmic, 14b, hsk sq4(i think thats what it is) i have will have injectors and im waiting for a buddy to come back...
i have a buddy who has a set of stock 1g cams i was just curious if they would drop right in like a normal cam installation or if there is anything i would have to look out for. Also the cam sensor, would that be alright or would a sensor out of a 1g have to be used?
o ok. i talked to a buddy of mine and he told me i would need to drill into the head and such. it sounded a little off to me so i figured i would ask on here. thank you
the 14b is installed. after installing i forgot to readjust the MBC. Did a pull and hit about 18lbs before i fuel cut. turned it to about 14 lbs and the car is running good from what i can tell. it was a good idea to replace the t25. for the longest time i had a rattle i could not figure out for...
ya what ever you want to do keep me posted. everything in my gs is in good condition. if you choose to do the swap i hold what ever parts you need. at the same time once the car starts getting the body parts stripped off im only going to keep it for a limited amount of time. Dont want the front...
like a few people said dsm link will do you wonders. get a nice tune on that think and the mods you have you should be able to run 13's with ease. my buddy has almost the same set up as you, but has dsm link and a good tune. and the car is a monster. btw i didnt read everything on here so im not...
i have a full parts eclipse. has a 420a. but its 5-speed. if you were interested in a conversion. i have everything you need. the tranny has a bad syncro for the 3rd gear. but i have a full parts transmission with a bad diff. the clutch is new, slave and master are in perfect condition. if your...
i have a boost gauge, fmic, and a mbc. right now i am sitting at around 15 psi. i was looking into getting a 14b to have a little more fun. i did have the understanding that in time i would need to upgrade the fuel system. i plan to do so but at the moment i still do not know the car well enough...
It is possible. But like necroposy mentioned. turboing a engine with high miles can lead to some problems later down the road. i have a n/t eclipse and that was my plan as well. The more research i did on it, the more i became turned off with the idea. There is just so much that is involved in...
Ok for starters, i know there are other posts on this topic. Alot of mixed answers though. all i want to know is, by swapping a t25 with a 14b on a stock fuel system and with a fmic, what is the most i can run? from what i have gathered i can run the same 15 lbs. i understand the process of the...
i have no idea where to start. i guess i would say when i was 5 or 6 years old seeing my first eclipse and going " mommy i will have one of those some day" well about 18 years later. i have a 97 gs and a 95 gsx sitting in my driveway. the gs i have no idea where to start. every possible thing...
i have a 95 gsx with one hell of a wire mess. went through the harness finding tons of broken wires and pigtails with no homes(or i havent found a home for them yet) decided to pull the ecu and noticed it is a used ecu out of a 96 gsx. Now i know the 95s have a eprom ecu. but the 96-99 im not to...
drove the car for the first time today. went to the dam store to get some smokes and soemthing to drink and came out to find a nice decent dent on the driver quarter. some prick felt the need to back into me. other than that the car drives great despite a bad ball joint. all the boost leaks are...
thank you. i did more research on it. im only sitting around 15 lbs right now. i dont plan to go any farther than that anytime soon. found a few more bugsand i was talking about the spark plug wire cover. sorry i didnt specify
i just installed the hard piping about 2 hours ago. ill post some pictures up tomorrow when find a place to better mount the fuse box. i have the 1g bov installed as well.the first is the day i got it. and the second is how it sits as of last night
i havent done my research on the what turbo set up. i was thinking about going with a big 16g. but if im going as far doing a full build i think im going to want something bigger than that. i have plenty of time to do more research. i have a pretty good idea on what im going to do with the...
thanks for the input and i will deff keep that in mind. right now a buddy is going to sell me a set of smic hard pipes that support a 1g bov. i have a crushed 1g bov actually sitting on the desk infront of me. thats just going to be on for the time being until i build up enough green to do...
haha i hope so. i loved my buddys gsx. i know i have boost leaks. thought i had them all taken care of. the stock piping and clamps are bad. a buddy is selling me a set of hard piping that will fit a smic. and a 1g crushed bov. once i put those on it should fix my problems. other than that as of...
i love the world of boost now that i have all the boost leaks fixed. all thats left to do now is pads rotors calipers and rewire the radio harness and what ever random wire under the dash ive found. i know the car is a great find. the negative comments dont really bother me. i got a worse when i...
1995 Eclipse GSX no rust clean, factory paint under the car still. virgin engine. does need some work paid 1500 for the car 700 for it to be shipped. bought out of Indiana
head gasket is good. it might have been at some point in time. but as of right now the car is stock set aside the ebay intake and a fart can. i have most of the wire issues worked out. going to do the brakes tomorrow and put a new slave cyl on the car than its road ready
considering what i paid for the car. the steelies i dont mind atleast it had wheels on it. the trim isnt a big deal i can replace that. headlights i have a extra set monster truck status, well i do have a problem with that haha. and a stock 7 bolt. all the more reason why i wanted it. also the...
check for leaks around the slave follow the hard line up to the master and check for leaks. i had the same problem in mine and my master was leaking. i replaced the whole system.
a gs is not a bad car as for daily driving and gas. if you ever plan to go fast i would go with a gsx. i have both a gs and a gsx. my gs has alot done to it. and my gsx is pretty much stock. with that being said i had a buddy in the gs and i was in the gsx. we raced and the stock gsx blew the...
