I recently sold my GS and got a GSX...very satisfied :hellyeah:

But this car was not well put together (i.e. parts just jammed in places without being secured, sloppy...etc.) and is going to take some time money and love to be were I would like it to be...saying that, I am inexperianced and pretty new to motors besides regular maintenance duties, not an altogether meathead but definetly a noob. I am posting these pics to see if you guys would grace me with your priceless know how's and what's with these awesome machines..I do not know what half of these parts are but I have made a commitment to patiently understand and listen to good advice. I have been reading on this site like crazy and have found some great things and great knowledge. I do not know if I am doing this correctly by just posting and asking...but if I am not please help me how to understand how this site works...

Anyway... I was told it had a 6 bolt swap..I have recieved different responses on this..I was told to check the oilpan from a link but I am still unsure as I thought I had it pinned as a 6 bolt and then another member said it was a 7 bolt due to the bend in the flange on the oilpan..I will need to understand which one it is first I think before moving forward..Are there any other ways you guys know of to check and verify this? I will post a pic of the oilpan again and see what ya'll say.

The rest of the pictures of the powerplant and various other pieces I will need help identifying also.. once again I thank you ahead of time for taking the time to look at the pictures and help me..I would only ask one thing..if you are unsure please dont respond, I am asking for veteran help and would hate to get some half fast response leading to wasted money on my part and wasted time in the renewal of this awesome car.

Thanks again fellas and God bless ya!

Any part identification would be awesome...what kind of head? throttle body? turbo? etc...
 
6 bolt rods are the same turbo or NA

Crank is the same for turbo and NA

Pistons are different for turbo and na

The 7 bolt head bolt holes need enlarged for the 6bolt head studs.
 
The G4CP? I wouldn't expect it to be any weaker than a crank you find in a Mitsu in similar condition, whatever that may be.
