Has anyone had an eclipse that they didnt have to work on like a job, ive had 2 turbo and regular and now i hate them they took up more time than anything i feel like i wasted my life fixing the pieces of crap, but at first i was in love with them. Anyone else go through this crazy dilemma??
@geezybeezy420 yes i have. and i didnt even have a turbo. i replaced so many parts. the cars look absolutely beautiful but i would never put myself through another eclipse again. my next car will probably be a new lancer ralliart. apparently, with mitsubishi, i havent learned my lesson haha.
@cmills5081 Pretty sure its just a straight pipe. I haven't owned this car for years so my memory might be off, but I'm almost positive it didn't have a cat.
@hiluss heard wrong man.. they do have gasket problems but all you gotta do is replace once every couple of years.. alternator problems as well but very small issues.
@4B11T Yes, turbo back means, the exhaust is modified from the turbo to the back of the car. So everything after the turbo (which includes the downpipe, but not the exhaust manifold).
@elqimporta you would rather a 91 or 92 6 bolt motor as the 90 is very hard to find and 90s were so different from the others i would rather stay away. and also, no way on the evo 8 motor as it is the wrong orientation as it faces the same way as the 420a, you must have gotten the idea from forza, the proper evo motors would be an evo 1-3 as after that 4-9 all have the same orientation. great sounding exhaust as well, i have it on my 96 galant and its really deep. i love it,
I have a TSi AWD, i was wondering what kind of side skirts out had on that, they look sick, im looking for a set but alot of the aftermarket ones look riced to hell. I just ordered that exhaust as well, nice vid.
You can get the motor warm without getting the turbo super hot. If you aren't getting into boost you don't really need to let a turbo cool down. However its still spinning some, so its warm enough that it didn't hurt anything when I started it up and took off fast like that. Trust me I take very good care of my cars.
They are 17's, the center cap was also taken out on them. They were on the car when I got them. I personally wasn't a huge fan of them, but they aren't bad.
Yeah its lowered. As for the wheels, sorry I can't remember anymore, the car was sold a while ago. They came with the car so I don't really know which ones they are, but in this video the center caps were taken out. I think they looked better that way.
really? whats the stock clearance, well i suppose i could get my lazy but off the computer and go check, whuts ur email. i will email you about this. and ill take pics of my driveway.... or you can email me at sergeantsprinkles (@) gmail (.) com
yeah but i want the struts and shocks, not just the spirngs. using anything stock with aftermarket screws up the allignment. front wheels look like this \\ (engine) //
you can change that the 4g63 engine will drop right in place of the 420a motor all you need is the mounts for the 4g63 im doing that to mine in a couple weeks.
thats going to cost you way more than you think it will probably, a 4g63 motor is completely mounted in a different direction than the 420a, your going to have to replace the entire drivetrain power steering, everything for that to work.
Most exhaust systems are cat-back (replace the pipes from the catalytic converter to the back) and a turbo-back just means it replaces all of the exhaust pipes after the turbo.
not quite true, most aren't catback, just catbacks are generally cheaper. but yeah, as he said, the name is pretty much self explanatory, turbo back=back of the turbo. catback=back of the cat.
if it's a turboback then it's friggin weak, i had a turboback on my 1g and it was way more better sounding than that one and louder to.. must have been the 16g i had on there. still sounds good
damn.. i miss my 95 talon tsi.. had a lot of good memories with that thing. It was beast as hell too.

Again, I'm not sure since it was already lowered when I bought the car.
Search for a website called DSMTuners and there will be plenty of examples there for you to decide how much you want to lower your car.

I went out to my garage and measured. The front bumper has a 5 inch ground clearance. If your driveway is really steep IDK if I would lower it.

Hes selling his 99 non-turbo eclipse to buy a turbo one. Sure you can turbo the 420a, but its just not as good of a platform as the 4g63.
