On my way to my 300 whp DD

[AdamKashner]

Well as you know I set a goal for my 96 Eclipse spyder gs of a easily driven 300whp Daily. So I am not all talk I picked up my power plant today. From a 95 GST that was recently wrecked. The only damage to the motor was the radiator pushed up against the turbo and bent the bar to the waste gate. Also when removing the motor they managed to break the nipple off the turbo.

If you need a new T25 wastegate I have one. PM me if you want.

So... you're doing a non-turbo to turbo swap? Are you sure you know what you've gotten youself into?

 

[toofast82]

Do you currently have a 4g64 or 420a motor?
It's funny the t25 kinda looks big in the first pic

 

[No_Skillz]

Oh yeah. I forgot the Spyder N/Ts got the 2.4Ls.

 

[toofast82]

Are you planning on swapping to the 4g63 head?

 

[AdamKashner]

No I am swapping the whole motor. And yes i currently have the 4g64

 

[AdamKashner]

Got some stuff removed. my new oil pump,waterpump,gasket set, and timing belt should be here next week

Have you taken the 4g64 out?

 

[7"exhaust_tip]

Nice dipstick!


Do you already have the ecu out of the other car?

 

[AdamKashner]

The 4g64 is out as so is the wiring,dash and ECU. I still did not get a hold of a ecu or harness yet.

 

[AdamKashner]

also debating a roll bar while i have the interior ripped apart.

 

[AdamKashner]

Ok here are the pics from today. I wont post any more pics up until it gets back from the machine shop when it is looking all sexy and new.

was hoping maybe I can find someone to swap my 4g64 stuff for a 4g63t ecu and harness

 

[AdamKashner]

Well I got it back from the machinist today. The block was true all the way so i didn't get the surfaces machined. I had it bored .010 over due to uneven cylinder wear. I also had the Crank checked and it was good. The head was true but i still had it resurfaced because of it being aluminum.

Before you ask I was looking at some different sited and seen on DSM Grave Yard they have the Frankenstein motor and really liked it so that is why it is GREEN! If you think it is rice I am sorry I hurt your feelings just go tell someone else about it because I dont care.

I decided to get a new(used) oil pan and the balance shaft eliminator so i have to wait untill they get here to put it back together.

That is an incredibly bright green. I kinda like it though.

 

[lude000]

block looks nice its your car so do what you want sounds like it will be a fun ride when your done IMO you should go ahead and add the roll bar

 

[toofast82]

. I had it bored .010 over due to uneven cylinder wear.

Do they make +.010" over pistons?, I thought +.020" was the next up from std. I could be wrong though.

 

[AdamKashner]

wiseco makes them

 

[toofast82]

wiseco makes them

got a link to these possibly? I didn't see them listed in their catalog

 

[AdamKashner]

they are custom order

 

[DyNamiC]

I would definitely do the roll bar while you are at it. Safety is priceless.

 

[AdamKashner]

I think I am going to get a light bar like here 96, 97, 98, 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder Light Bar and building the roll bar into it so it looks nice.

 

[91gsxnoob]

I would not do a custom order piston, maybe I'm wrong but you will be dropping more bank with a custom piston. Just go .020 over and save yourself some $$$. Good luck with the build!

Yeah that one looks pretty nice. Wish they had a picture of it on a 2g though. I had a friend roll a spyder without a bar. He made it. It took a while to recover though and he won't ride in a convertible anymore.
