I love the SHO, great car. Before I SRed my 240 my buddys walked the shit outta my KA lol. Different ball game now though. I'd like to have purchased one, but RWD is where its at for me. I still like riding around in my buddys sho though, its a hoot whenever he fucks with people,
I have always loved the Talons/Eclipses but I own a 92 SHO,no mods and I have to admit its a fun car to drive @207k it still is a quick and fun car to play with
SHOs is the shit i own one n ive owned ricers and a few old school 350 rockets i have a 93 and G1 and G2 motors were made completely by yamaha not ford G3 had the ford engine except for the heads the G4's are nice but made by ford i prefer a full yamaha engine
You guys make no sense The SHO is rice though . Its like a mustang with a body kit or a ford probe sporting a mazda engine in this case a taurus with a yamaha engine. Both jap engines so what are you calling rice ?? That DSM is more domestic then the sho is. They dont call them the Diamond Star triplets for nothing aka chrysler.
@Bbdrew The DSM platform is a solid one. 400-500 horses on a stock block is not uncommon. I just think that if they were not fairly matched in mods that they shouldn't have raced.
wow zinotakenotes you are a fucking idiot!!!! you abviously cant read worth a shit...i didnt upload the vid but im the one thats racing jackass. please just go and hang yourself now ass hole.
what am i lying about? look me up jackass... google bastard dsm and you will see my galant vr4 tread. its 2.3+s366=fun. car made 600hp at 27psi. get some!!!
i havnt had a chance to run him again, at time i had a 12 sec car. i have a galant vr4 now that runs 11.3's in full street trim at 23-25psi on a borg s366 turbo. ill just say this, it makes 400hp at 15psi...race boost is 30-35psi...if i run tony again it will be in this car...but it will be close. at 20psi the galant is a viper killer.
Cool stuff! I had a thing for those Galant's back in the day. The question of the hour is, can you hear it's BOV? Cause if you can't, it ain't turbo'd! Hopefully tony will be back together with the heavy duty trans soon enough. It would be sweet to get some video of two fast four-doors going at it.
hey yamasakizuki, your an idiot for real..yes that was my 92 laser awd, it was in the 300hp mark on pump gas. that sho is no joke and has walked many cars here in the dfw. just to give you an idea on how fast that car is...we take off from a 40 roll and we are side by side because he is spinning, now when he started to pull me was in 4th gear. now watch the vide again.look at how fast we go threw 2nd, 3rd, then at the bottom of 4th he gets traction and starts to pull me.
listen to the engine and tell me if you even here a turbo and BOV lol i bet its just a regular gs lol start listening at 0:10 - 0:15 when they let off the gas if it was a turbo if would have had a loud BOV at that high of a RPM i know this because i have a GST with a stock turbo and it is loud as hell at high RPM when you get off the gas. and after this just look up any eclipse gst/gsx race and you will hear the difference.
and a continue to the previous a 18g is a big ass turbo upgrade for the eclipse witch to do so properly or run low psi the eclipse would need better fuel injectors, pump etc. plus it would need a bigger intercooler so that mean 9/10 a custom BOV which is also 9/10 super loud. so yea not a 18g probly just a moded GS which would stand a chance against a SHO.
Can you hear the SC on the SHO either? The wind noise is cancelling out eveything nearly. Also keep in mind that this particular SHO has somewhere in the neighborhood of 550-600 hp BEFORE the nitrous.
trust me the eclipse is not a turbo its probly a 4th gen v-6 if it was a 18g turbo it would have pulled away from the SHO for longer than 1 sec and the part i told you to listen to didnt have the wind noise interferance trust me not a 18gd
Well, the guy riding the car posted the vid, I got a feeling he knows more about the car than you. Also, the owner of the car posted a link to the vid on a DFW forum, and he knew more about the car than you. Lastly, the SHO in question traps north of 120mph. If the car were a NA V6, the ensuing slaughter would have been extreme. Sorry bud, the 18g eclipse got whooped.
What does an average 18g eclipse make at the wheels, maybe 350-400whp? That being the case, this race turned out exactly like it should have with the SHO not spraying.
no one knows more about eclipses than me this is no 18g you sir fail at wanting to accept that the SHO didnt beat a heavily modded eclipse like you think he did.
I have raced this SHO before, and lost. I would have NOOOOO trouble slaughtering an 18g eclipse. Do a quick google search: El Toro 638 HP dyno pull. After watching that vid, come back and explain to me how that SHO would do anything but murder any 18g eclipse. I patiently await your response.
Of course, because a 200hp eclipse will pull away from a 638whp SHO every time. Dude, give up, I know the entire backstory with both cars. I know the SHO owner quite well, and the eclipse owner posted the loss on a dallas imports board. Just because you can not hear what you think you should hear from a recording on an unknown camera outside a window with a ton of wind noise next to an extremely loud 638whp car is no proof of what you claim. Do I have to link you to the original thread?
ni i know for a fact this eclipse isnt a turbo becuse no BOV = No engine cause boost cant leave the intake and it will blow it and this eclipse doesnt have a BOV i can tell the SHO was so far ahad the cam was inside and you can hear when the eclipse if it is an eclipse let off the gas you didnt hear no BOV
Here is the owner of said eclipse (bastard dsm on dallasimports) stating his mod list at time of race: but i dont have much done.i now have stock block and
head,660's+255pump,afc,2.5down pipe and 3"exh,ported head/manny/turbin hous,
8lb flywheel,comp clutch,fp18g with 7cm housing,tail38mm wastgate,03 evo fmic
with 2.25 piping,2gmaf.its not much but my car went on a huge diet,i only have what i need
and still not proof that it is a 18g eclipse any one can type out parts and if the turbo was ported as you say that means the BOV would be even louder NO BOV = NO TURBO!!!! end of discussion
I can not begin to count all the turbocharged cars that have recirc valves. Please go to dallasimports and share with those guys your inestimable knowledge of the 18g Eclipse. What a waste.
Let me guess, you drive a turbo dsm car and can not fathom that one got beat by a taurus. Is this the reason for your assanine denial of the facts? The same car in the vid stayed door to door with a head/cam LS1. Yeah, lots of na eclipse can do that. Come back with a single useful argument other than your hearing problems, until then, you have no argument.
haha retard there are no repsonces, yes i drive a turbo eclipse.you just dont want to admit that this car is a non turbo you sair are a fucking retard who knows nothing about eclipses or turbos for that matter you should change your name to wannabe turbotoolman
Not sure why my vid did not link, but regardless, simply search 3rd gear tire slippage, my vid is the first one. If you can hear the BOV, let me know.
Wow, I found this vid on accident and it brought back some great memories(had a 92 5 speed). If only they still made them like this or if they had continued to let Yamaha make their engines....
No....what looks like ass is an 8000 dollar economy rice box with F1 racing wings and stickers all over it.and the only reason people say taurus looks like shit is cuz you see 1000 lx's on the road a day...not sho's
you dont see sho'd everyday specially not the v8's.i was giving you the benefit of a NEW rice burner hence the 8000.And considering i fix em for a living i can tell you that eclipses fall apart there junk like any other cheap coupe.tauruses do not...not even the cheap ones.btw my SHO raped my buddies gst.
right 200 horse which is....more than most rice burners.and whoever put dub's on a SHO or any other car should be euthanized.i never said my taurus was blazingly fast it's just that you morons say your fourbangers are fast and cant beat my fucking taurus.get my point?
You guys need to calm down. First off, NEVER underestimate the potential of a DSM. Any 1g Talon/Eclips/Laser would easily be able to reach 300whp with less than $1000 invested. More than can be said about a SHO.
With that said, don't underestimate a SHO either. The yamaha 3.0 is a great candidate for boost. Stock engines from with a forged bottom end from the factory and this is weird considering the engine is N/A. If SHO's came rwd or awd, they would be the supras of fords.
You are on of the smartest people that have commented on here. SHO'S are really good for roll races. That is where they really shin because of there high gearing.
I disagree with you on saying they do bad on the track, there are sho's that totally tear up on autocrossing.
lol, our V6's are faster than your V6's boosted or N/A... American cars only get fast when they have big V8's or someone else tunes them. Four bangers from honda sure as hell go pretty fast without boost, you must be to used to seeing "ricers" and not "tuners."
I said "get fast" not "are fast". Race a Acura TL type S if you really wanna get blown away by stock honda power. Remember, your V6 is only fast because its tuned by yamaha, which is a japanese tuner.
Not that I feel like I need to try and prove it to an idiot like you, but this is what happened:
I brake torqued off the line and got an extremely good launch. I was running premium and keep in mind my SHO is lightly modded.
The Mustang spun off the line because the driver, a terrible one at that, is an idiot and has almost no traction in the back. Nevertheless this Mustang wasn't running the healthiest it could and had probably 260 hp at most.
Yeah because when I don't do my oil changes regularly I lose 40hp right? Are you sure the driver wasn't making a sandwich, launching in 6th, and talking on the cell phone at the same time? Because to me, that sounds VERY possible.
I have a 94 MTX (faster than j00) with mods (even more faster than j00) and I can't even beat an 03 GT stang in a FAIR race (3rd gear vs 3rd Gear)
I beat my buddy's 03 GT ONCE, and that was when he was in 4th and I was in 2nd. So stfu.
dude I beat a 99+ 5 speed Mustang the other day, only mods I have are a 3.2 swap and a Borla catback....... I took him way into 4th gear....... your SHO is slow
ATX maybe, but even for a stock SHO, I used to eat GT's on my lunch break. They were no problem at all. My victories included: countless Camaros and Firebirds, about 4 Mustang GTs and one Mustang Cobra, countless idiots with Hondas, An Acura RL, a couple of WRXs and one Porsche Carerra. I've owned three SHOs and if you keep them tuned, they're all but unstoppable.
honda's are japanese, yamaha is japanese. There's no escaping the fact that your still driving something that is more than 50% japanese. And unlike you, our front wheel drives can corner as well as any other car and not only go in a straight line. Honda's and integra ricers? Do you hate integra's specifically, or did you forget that Integra's are made by honda?

I know Yamaha is Japanese. Honda is also Japanese, but the difference is Honda sucks at making engines.
There is no engine currently that can put down the same numbers as a Yamaha with little displacement without using some form of vtec, DFI, or any combo of the two.
Nothing. And the fact that it is a 20 year old engine that can beat the shit out of everything else in terms of reliability and power just makes it that much better.
Any 20 year old engine can be good without variable valve timing, hence the 4age coming out of the toyota AE86 corolla. And this is my last reply to you because of the ignorant comment you "honda sucks at making engines." Thats completely irrelevant considering that my '94 GSR has all original internals and at 180k+ miles (more than 50k miles in vtec) it still runs fine and crosses over like it did out of the box.
BTW, my Yamaha has over 243k, and there are SHO's out there with more than 300k running as good as they did when they came out the lot.
My point is, there is no engine today, or 20 yeas ago that could put down the same power per liter without some version of VTEC or FI. There is NOTHING.
Wait, I was mistaken, there is, the 5.0L V8 from the Lexus IS-F....made by Yamaha.
Can you imagine the 3.0L Yamaha rebuilt today with all the technological goodies to its advantage (VVT/Cam Lift, Gasoline Direct Injection, etc.)? Let's not forget car accessories that could handle this motor's TRUE redline? It's easliy putting out 300HP n/a and stomping on V8 muscle to this day.
It has variable intake tracts....2 sets of runners per cylinder, long ones and short ones. Under 4,000 rpm's the short ones are closed and when you hit 4k the short ones open up and you have both long and short runners pullin air in. And yes you can feel the kick in the pants when they open up!
its in the intake runners not the valves! How THE HELL would a cylinder have compression with all the valves open? It switches from the long runners to the short bigger ones. Its similar to a 4 barrel vs 2 barrel air intake capabilities.
Well done! Im glad to see the youtube hero's have already hit this video and corrected the incompetant little man with their superior knowledge of, well everything
thats bull. i beat the 3rd gen v8 sho with my gen2 3.2 v6 sho. ive even beat the v8 sho in my tour svt!!! but i guess if it aint stock, didnt notice that til now. but ima still post the message.
A popular swap is putting the 3.2 in the MTX. This is Tony. Dude is crazy pushing over 20psi in his cammed motor and making over600whp (I mean 430..shoforum joke). All this with stock '92 (10.2") brakes :).
Holy shit, that's tony's sho. I bought my '92 and '95 from here. Yeah he's got a kick ass ride, and he specializes in sho's so if he breaks his, he'll fix it. He's got about 450 to the front wheels.
I know there's a lot of aftermarket products from 'BringBackTheSHO . C O M', There should be some links there for aftermarket supplies. The turbo's came with my cars.
I know this is an old comment, but check out ford performance specialists down in georgia. last I saw, Doug Lewis had a couple of supercharged ATXs on the road..
Kid isn't a ricer. He's running a 500awhp Eclipse, Tony on the other hand, from what I hear, is running a built 3.2 w/20+psi s/c making 637whp/595wtq.
He'll tell you 430whp all day long. He recently blew the motor due to it leaning out up top. So he ordered 72lb/hr injectors...48lb/hr wasn't enough :D.

@XxJxX1337 Well I just went by your comment that it was a pathetic DSM.
I'm sure for the power it made it's okay, just was against a much more built opponent.
And yes I know, my talon will end up with around 400whp on its stock block.
As of now it's at around 300whp running 12's - so I know the platform pretty well.
Just saying I wouldnt call it pathetic without knowing the exact build of each car

you dont see sho'd everyday specially not the v8's.i was giving you the benefit of a NEW rice burner hence the 8000.And considering i fix em for a living i can tell you that eclipses fall apart there junk like any other cheap coupe.tauruses do not...not even the cheap ones.btw my SHO raped my buddies gst.

are you fucking kidding me???
my next door neighbor has a " v8 sho'd" ha
i will go take pictures of it on my phone right now cock face.
and theres some dickhead that comes to my work that drives one....it has gangsta dubs on it
hey nice job killing that gst, knowing that gst's are making a whopping 200 crank hp....good job man=]
your a winner, make sure you tell all your freinds about that buddy.
RubberDuckieXcore 3 years ago
right 200 horse which is....more than most rice burners.and whoever put dub's on a SHO or any other car should be euthanized.i never said my taurus was blazingly fast it's just that you morons say your fourbangers are fast and cant beat my fucking taurus.get my point?

Are you kidding me? An 18g with supporting mods is a low 12 car.
ironbloodus 2 years ago
Definitely a low 12 second car with the right TUNE. I love DSM's (evo3 16g awd tsi 97) but without a good tune they just look bad.
geemoney3333333 2 years ago
ya really! eclipse gs/gsx is just a crappy name-stealing slow pile. the real gs/gsx's are made by BUICK, even more of a sleeper than an sho
EatableCWEED 2 years ago
You guys need to calm down. First off, NEVER underestimate the potential of a DSM. Any 1g Talon/Eclips/Laser would easily be able to reach 300whp with less than $1000 invested. More than can be said about a SHO.
With that said, don't underestimate a SHO either. The yamaha 3.0 is a great candidate for boost. Stock engines from with a forged bottom end from the factory and this is weird considering the engine is N/A. If SHO's came rwd or awd, they would be the supras of fords.

i am not believing that diamond star has an 18g turbo! if so it's not tuned right or something??? i have seen 18g's run low 12's easily!
zume2600 3 years ago
Here is a little info for you:
Fastest SHO runs low 12's with over 500whp.
On the track, SHO's suck (FWD FTL)
On the street how ever...completely different monster. Jesus Gear for the fucking win.
There are 13 second SHO's that can whoop the shit out of a 12 second car from a roll.
xxigodzixx 3 years ago
You are on of the smartest people that have commented on here. SHO'S are really good for roll races. That is where they really shin because of there high gearing.
I disagree with you on saying they do bad on the track, there are sho's that totally tear up on autocrossing.

Must be a ricer fan. That's okay. Look at how slow your jap cars are NA. They only get fast when they have some boost.
Tardstrifer 3 years ago
lol, our V6's are faster than your V6's boosted or N/A... American cars only get fast when they have big V8's or someone else tunes them. Four bangers from honda sure as hell go pretty fast without boost, you must be to used to seeing "ricers" and not "tuners."
mugenman6 3 years ago
Funny because my SHO, an automatic at that, pulled 2 car lengths on a 2005 Mustang 5sp with a v8.
And I've already put a bus length or more on your oh-so-special stock Honda.
Tardstrifer 3 years ago
I said "get fast" not "are fast". Race a Acura TL type S if you really wanna get blown away by stock honda power. Remember, your V6 is only fast because its tuned by yamaha, which is a japanese tuner.
mugenman6 3 years ago
I believe every Acura TL Type S has a 5 or 6 cylinder engine buddy.
By the way, the SHO engine is built by yamaha from a ford vulcan block. It was tuned by ford.
An Acura TL type S has at most 260 HP stock. It's already been discussed how my SHO beat a 300+ hp 5 speed Mustang.
Good work with the math there buddy.
Tardstrifer 3 years ago
You should look into how dumb you really are (Tardstrifer).
Unless you have NOS or a Turbo, your ATX SHO isn't going to touch an 05+ GT Mustang. MTX SHO's can't even keep up with 99-04 GT's.
How do I know? I raced my friend last night, only beat him once because he was in 4th and I was in 2nd.
Shut your mouth before you make the rest of us SHO owners look retarded.
xxigodzixx 3 years ago
Not that I feel like I need to try and prove it to an idiot like you, but this is what happened:
I brake torqued off the line and got an extremely good launch. I was running premium and keep in mind my SHO is lightly modded.
The Mustang spun off the line because the driver, a terrible one at that, is an idiot and has almost no traction in the back. Nevertheless this Mustang wasn't running the healthiest it could and had probably 260 hp at most.
Take a fuckin' chill pill.
Tardstrifer 3 years ago
Oh sh!t, he was running premium!!! Oh noes!!!11111ONE111
yamahaSHO 3 years ago
Yeah because when I don't do my oil changes regularly I lose 40hp right? Are you sure the driver wasn't making a sandwich, launching in 6th, and talking on the cell phone at the same time? Because to me, that sounds VERY possible.
I have a 94 MTX (faster than j00) with mods (even more faster than j00) and I can't even beat an 03 GT stang in a FAIR race (3rd gear vs 3rd Gear)
I beat my buddy's 03 GT ONCE, and that was when he was in 4th and I was in 2nd. So stfu.
xxigodzixx 3 years ago
dude I beat a 99+ 5 speed Mustang the other day, only mods I have are a 3.2 swap and a Borla catback....... I took him way into 4th gear....... your SHO is slow
yamaha33410 3 years ago
ATX maybe, but even for a stock SHO, I used to eat GT's on my lunch break. They were no problem at all. My victories included: countless Camaros and Firebirds, about 4 Mustang GTs and one Mustang Cobra, countless idiots with Hondas, An Acura RL, a couple of WRXs and one Porsche Carerra. I've owned three SHOs and if you keep them tuned, they're all but unstoppable.

mugenman6 3 years ago
No. Because unlike the Honda's and Integra ricers, we have what is called Torque. Also, our engines don't need vtec to put down more than 140hp.
Fuck Vtec, fuck honda's, fuck you.

honda's are japanese, yamaha is japanese. There's no escaping the fact that your still driving something that is more than 50% japanese. And unlike you, our front wheel drives can corner as well as any other car and not only go in a straight line. Honda's and integra ricers? Do you hate integra's specifically, or did you forget that Integra's are made by honda?

mugenman6 3 years ago
I know Yamaha is Japanese. Honda is also Japanese, but the difference is Honda sucks at making engines.
There is no engine currently that can put down the same numbers as a Yamaha with little displacement without using some form of vtec, DFI, or any combo of the two.
Nothing. And the fact that it is a 20 year old engine that can beat the shit out of everything else in terms of reliability and power just makes it that much better.
xxigodzixx 3 years ago
Any 20 year old engine can be good without variable valve timing, hence the 4age coming out of the toyota AE86 corolla. And this is my last reply to you because of the ignorant comment you "honda sucks at making engines." Thats completely irrelevant considering that my '94 GSR has all original internals and at 180k+ miles (more than 50k miles in vtec) it still runs fine and crosses over like it did out of the box.
mugenman6 3 years ago
My Yamaha has original internals as well ;P
Do your Honda's come stock with forged internals?
BTW, my Yamaha has over 243k, and there are SHO's out there with more than 300k running as good as they did when they came out the lot.
My point is, there is no engine today, or 20 yeas ago that could put down the same power per liter without some version of VTEC or FI. There is NOTHING.
Wait, I was mistaken, there is, the 5.0L V8 from the Lexus IS-F....made by Yamaha.
xxigodzixx 3 years ago
Can you imagine the 3.0L Yamaha rebuilt today with all the technological goodies to its advantage (VVT/Cam Lift, Gasoline Direct Injection, etc.)? Let's not forget car accessories that could handle this motor's TRUE redline? It's easliy putting out 300HP n/a and stomping on V8 muscle to this day.

No....they don't.......
It has variable intake tracts....2 sets of runners per cylinder, long ones and short ones. Under 4,000 rpm's the short ones are closed and when you hit 4k the short ones open up and you have both long and short runners pullin air in. And yes you can feel the kick in the pants when they open up!
TopGunnSRX 3 years ago 3
its in the intake runners not the valves! How THE HELL would a cylinder have compression with all the valves open? It switches from the long runners to the short bigger ones. Its similar to a 4 barrel vs 2 barrel air intake capabilities.
shorteststraw76 3 years ago 4
Actually it is just intake runners that open up allowing more air to reach the valves all the valves work all the time flaps in the intake tubes open

This comment has received too many negative votes show
so what exactly do you have done to get like 500 hp + out of that v8 when like all you can do is supercharge and nitrous??????????
BBMustang514 3 years ago
It's a 3.0L V6 that takes to forced induction very well. With stock internals, it is possible to get over 600 WHP out of this motor.

A popular swap is putting the 3.2 in the MTX. This is Tony. Dude is crazy pushing over 20psi in his cammed motor and making over600whp (I mean 430..shoforum joke). All this with stock '92 (10.2") brakes :).

If you are a DSM guy, why are you putting eclipses down? They are basically the same car! You sound like you dont know your cars.
