Converting non power to power

[Juvenile95]

Ok i have 95 RS.. See my parents are doing some things to my car.. and i keep telling them don't worry about it i am just going to wait sell main in like 4 months and used the oney i saved then so i can get a GSX and they are like why.. I was like one because my car is not turbo and 2 because everything is manual like windows and door locks u already knew this but i was wondering if and how you could go about converting them..

Thanks,
Justin

You can start by reading the Forums FAQ.

Well, for Doors, its easy, you can just buy a kit off of ebay or a website. Something like http://www.a1electric.com/mes.htm. Their are some instructions that a guy made in the tech guide area. Now for windows, you have a couple options, either kit a SPAL kit, like this right here, or they also have where you can fully replace the mechanism like this right here. Those are your options mainly, but, theirs one thing your going to need to learn as a new member, Search the fourms, search the fourms, search the fourms. You can easily find this information someplace on this website for almost everything about our cars. But, I decided to write up what you basically need, etc.

You know, you could just keep your car and add in a turbo and some new internals, or like you said, sell the car and get a GST or GSX.

U said just add a turbo.. I thought about that but i don't have all that much money.. So could you add a turbo to a stock engine? I heard u could add one like a little stock turbo like 9lbs. Is this true?

no it's not exactly true. But you can't just add the turbo, be prepared to buy the kit, ### on top of the turbo, you'll need an intercooler, manifold, all the harnesses, upgraded fuel pump, injectors, a boost gauge and controller, just alot of stuff to add in there.

not to mention if any motor parts are needed to be replaced in the process, be prepared to spend around 3k for turbo if you want it

**note, you don't HAVE to do fuel pumps, etc., but if you want an considerable amount of boost, you will, our stock ones just can't handle that kind of stuff

Well, would it not just be cheaper to buy a turbo engine from somewhere then make mine turbo? If so? If not why?

 

[DDRcasey]

Well, right now your asking about a 420A to 4G63 swap i believe, and the answer is no, now, if you wanted an engine, that was already made for a turbo like the 4G63, then yes, it would be cheaper selling your car and buying a GST instead of doing a 420A to 4G63 swap.

? then how hard if it could be done to put a GS-T engine from a 95-98 into a 95 RS eclipse?
