Been saving up for a bit for a complete engine rebuild and miss clicked and ordered 85.0 instead of 85.5, didn't even think to check until it became time to throw it together, which was past the return date. :(All rings, wristpins, snap clips are included
Rods not includedPlease help me get...
Hello,I bought a 98 Eclipse manual non turbo, about two years ago. My wife drove it while I was out of town working and forgot to have fluids checked regularly. I now have an engine knock and the car has been sitting for about 6months now. I drained the oil there is no metal shavings or...
Can someone point me in the right direction on this swap? My wife and I have her dream car, a 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS.
The engine in the 99 blew up and has a massive hole in the block. Instead of buying a crate engine, we found a 2002 Eclipse GS for $650 for the whole car. We want to take...
Long story short I blew my cooling loop while parking after driving a mountain road. I just want to say in advance I am new to cars, but I work as a machinist so I would say I'm quite competent with using tools. I'm not sure where I should be looking, the steam came from the right side of the...
So im taking apart my engine and my valves on exhaust side are white as snow, while there is a pungent smell of gas in crank part of the block. I know its probably bad rings but could there be any other problems?
Hi there,
I'm trying to build a 2g 7 bolt engine using 1g 6 bolt connecting rod (which a lot of people say that they are stronger than 2g 7 bolt rods) and I got 2JZ-GE pistons with 86 mm bore and 22 mm pin, These pistons are full floating. I know that the rod surface needs to be machined and...
I know this has been talked about ad-nauseam, but it's been years, and most of the links don't work anymore... Does anyone know where I can find a full rebuild kit for my engine? I kinda wanna keep numbers matching if possible because the car is bone stock.. I might put some beefier internals in...
Hey everyone! I come again to seek help. I think this time might be my last attempt at trying to fix it. I’ll be driving down the road and it’ll rev high rpm’s sounding like I’m going fast but in reality losing speed. I have an automatic Eagle Talon Tsi 1997 Here’s a video of me explaining...
Some of the vacuum hoses on my Talon are looking a bit worse for wear and it would probably be a good idea to replace them. I got a loaner vacuum test kit from Autozone that I intend to use to see if there are any leaks, plus I got a stethoscope to double check everything. But even if it all...
Hello,
I have a 98 eclipse. I believe I bent a rod or f***ed up a piston. I bought this car for a daily driver until I can fix it up and make a fun project out of it. It’s a manual. I’m looking for someone who has a bit more experience in this area. I’m no mechanic, I generally do all my own...
I'm about to replace all the timing-"associated" parts on my '92 Talon TSi AWD, e.g. TB, BB, pulleys, tensioner, WP, seals, belts, thermostat, etc., and realized that it's probably time to replace the harmonic balancer as well. It was replaced after the original one failed just over 18 years...
Car (‘98 GSX) needs a new engine, and I want to do a solid build from the ground up. I don’t want an eBay engine. I either want something reputably remanufactured, or something custom built by a shop who specializes in it. I’m looking for a long block to try and get as many essential parts...
Hello Everybody,I recently purchased a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST, all stock, the body is in great condition, has everything except an Engine and Transmission.
Before you call me dumb, here is a little story. My grandma used to own a GST, she bought it from new and had it for some years, then...
My engine loves to act up...
I was in my car, with the the battery on so the Air was running, as well as the radio, when I then tried to start the car. The car started with a bit of a jolt, and ran at 100-200 RPM's for about 2 seconds before bogging out and dying. "Weird" I thought, so I tried...
Please be respectful, this is very sentimental to me. I have a bunch of questions. I have a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS. I’ve been debating on what to do with it. I’m really into the 4G63 platform and have a GS-T as well already in my garage. I’ve always wanted to work on a car with my dad but...
I've got my trans, pressure plate, clutch & flywheel off, and figured I might as well replace the rear engine oil seal while they're all out (got the Fel-Pro kit w/gasket) as good preventive maintenance even though nothing appears to be leaking. Never done it before but I understand it's pretty...
Hey guys, looking for an engine '98 rs (n/a)' manual ,know of one shoot me a message. Also I am considering swapping if i can't find a good replacement soon, trying to get my rs back to life.
Hey,
i drive a D30 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse non turbo and I am having problems after rebuilding the engine.
I had a bearing failure, so I took the engine out to rebuild it. After I installed the engine back in my chassis, i tried to start the car, but the Car did not start.The engine did crank...
Hi All,First of all, the block in question comes from an Evo 9, so engine is part of the 4G63 family and very similar to our late 2G 4G63 blocks with the split thrust bearing design. The reason why I am posting here is because prior to owning the Evo 9 I've own DSMs and I've learned a whole...
i have a 7 bolt longblock (full head, pistons rods crank oilpan) with arp headstuds and everything else is stock and has been since it was bought from the dealer in 1996. was running fine before it was pulled. only pulled due to bad strut rot and its an extra engine so i dont need it. all plugs...
Swapped 4g63 for 4g63. Blew first one up like a dummy. Anyways oil is leaking like a mofo. I can't see where it is coming from and only got one lap in on my last autocross race. I just changed oil before the race and lost a good amount of it from that one lap. Anyone have any suggestions on...
Referencing this thread: https://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/can-i-add-a-block-heater-to-my-eagle.194688/I can barely find the part numbers in post #4 or even a cross reference.
The part numbers were 605-3248 and/or 310-0024.Only one that kinda shows up via Google is a KATS 11414.Hoping...

It cranked one day, then my battery needed to be replaced so it sat for a week. I put in the new battery, tried to crank it, and got nothing. I thought it was the battery the whole time but I’m suspicious that it’s the starter now. I guess it’s really just a normal starter issue but I wanted to...
I'm sure this has been asked before, but I want an up-to-date fact. What's the maximum amount of horsepower and torque that I should run to my 420a? You can see my current specs and setup in my DSM profile. I have multiple performance parts and forged parts that are meant to take a beating. But...
Hey guys, i have a 90' GSX i just got running a few months ago. have going through it trying to make sure everything is up to snuff. i took it down the road and had a bad steering wheel wobble so i pulled the tires and checked everything and it all seems to have been replaced recently. So i...
Hello, I am new here and have been looking everywhere online and feel as though I can find help here. So I’ve recently snagged a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS buyvit has some issues with the engine. Previous owner mention there was an oil pump failure. But right off the bat, I am about 90% sure it...
I am posting this in the misc. tech article section because im not entirely sure where you guys might classify this information.Let me start this by saying that I am not an expert, I have a decent amount of knowledge on how the following concepts work and this topic is definitely up for...

This build took place at a shop called Strictly Performance - which has since changed ownership and no longer works on these cars. You'll notice references to the shop in this thread, as they originally posted a lot of these photos here on the site when they were a supporting vendor, along with...
I am new to having an account on the forums, but i am making a top mount manifold for my 2g 7 bolt and i'm having clearance issues with one of the runners hitting this little square piece sticking out of the block. I'm wanting to cut it off, but i don't know if I'll have issues if I cut it off...

Been a long ride.. But with still a ways to go..Got everything stripped down. Got a super cheap blaster. If it doesn't work well, no harm done. (Almost sure it won't, being the gravity feed from harbor freight.. But all cheap tools deserve a shot IMO, ya never know...)I'm probably going to...
