[Abe's_CRX]

well...i personally think it looks better wingless

[96_ECLPSE_GSX]

isnt every eclipse a project?
yea eclipse motrs r shit after 100k miles but its brand new

[Kohinoor]

nice car, good luck with it

[*~*CindyHotpants*~*]

I like the radiator hose.

[96_ECLPSE_GSX]

I like the radiator hose.
its a silicone heat sheild until nopi sends me my damn braided radiator hoses and other assorted braided hoses

[dsm_talon77901]

sell me the turbo kit :eek3:

[danny]

didnt know you posted here garett

[cheap_ass]

lol whats wrong witht he wing?? tooo ricey??
yes it's too ricey please lose the wing

[ElTauro]

the colors, duke! The colors!

Boosted 420a... iiiiinteresting.

[danny]

auctully now that i look at it

is that really your car or your friend that works over there at discount tire

[initialRES]

i like the roof

[Turbo_F20c]

Wow, this is something you do not see very often. Boosted 420a. Is it worth it? What kind of numbers are you putting down? Lose the wing and buy stock body kit. :thumb:

[Broaden]

Paint and lose the wing I say. But whatever makes you happy. That's what it is all about.

[1990hatch]

damn....that inside is a mess...heh i wanna see the finished product

[DA6inspired]

UGHH....
My opinion.. lose the wing, kit, hood, fender, and rims... Then add 97-99 body parts, SLAM it, Add some nice rims. Just my p/o.

[KHAN CONNECTION]

not my cup of tea...but at least its turbo :-/
its my cup of tea, but man it looks like its gonna be RICED...and whats up wit ur radiator hose?

[Bomb0314]

lol whats wrong witht he wing?? tooo ricey??

ya sry dude.. the wing makes it look ricey.. unlesss ur going for the ricey look and the super fast sleeper :kekegay: ...

i think it will look much better with our the wing, nice project thou :thumb:

[Mook]

looks like its coming along well, wing isnt my cup of tea

[ProjektSol]

take that wing of QUICK!

[RZJZA80]

I used an Eclipse GST, and IMO this one is too "busy". Keep it simple and change that wing, yes it's on the ricey side.

[SIDEXIT]

i like it, looks alright if you take off the wing but how does that turbo handle, good?
and how much?

[SlOtH]

UGHH....
My opinion.. lose the wing, kit, hood, fender, and rims... Then add 97-99 body parts, SLAM it, Add some nice rims. Just my p/o.

[bluetorch81]

sory put not to my liking...y noy get a reclinable passenger seat?

[iKon_danny]

cool

[initial what?]

my opinion......if that engine puts out some nice numbers, just add some euros and call it a day.

[VolksFaggin]

1st of all, you have the wrong motor in there. 2nd you WWD and 3rd of all, the power your going to make is going to be lost draggin around all that crap you have attached to the car. Get a 4g63, get a AWD, lose the wing and hood and you should be set. Oh, and your car comes with a tach, no need for the elephant strapped to your dash.

[96_ECLPSE_GSX]

first of all this motor can be built better than the 4g63 and can make more power plus there are more parts for it, the motor has been built up for us already when we bought it. It already is GSX it was a GSX when we bought it but i put the 420a in it (lot of work!) because i like that motor PLUS no one will recognize a GSX with a 420! and the reason i chose fiberlgass fenders, hood and the bodykit is because they all weighh less than stok parts we already removed 128 lbs of it just in body parts and put on 50. the tach in the car is fucked it reads 1500 when its off thats why i got the autometer AND the motor redlines way higher now due to the built motor. next i am not going to put euros on it jus dont like it but i am going to put angel eyes on it in the future. the turbo is great S25G i havent ran the car i jus got it running 3 days ago but hopefully with a the port fueler system it will be pulling high tens low 11's ive done the math on the car and now im lookin at 500 BHP and with tuning maybe spray lookin at about 750 BHP. I chose not to go with reclining seats so it can be rigid and run at the track i dont know what race restrictions come with reclining seats plus im running the 5 points. i dont want to slam it because i like paint staying on the car and houston is no place for a dropped car thats too low---maybe bags in the future or autoadjusting coil overs. plus we are going for the ALL SHOW NO GO look but it will have plenty of power. yes now i probably am going to change the wing..... and yes to the guy who asked if this was garrets from discount yes it is his i am doing all the work on it myself.

Wait so let me get this straight, you had a perfectly good GSX but took it upon yourself to swap in a 420A and go from AWD to FWD because you like the 420A better than the 4G63? Two words...."Crack kills."

The 4G63 always was, is, and always will be better than the 420A motor. Stronger than the 4G63? I don't know what your Neon buddies are telling you but the 420A is shit compared to the 4G. It is NOT stronger, it will NOT make more power, and it does NOT have more aftermarket support than the 4G. And on top of that, you better have bottomless pockets if you honestly think you're going to get 750hp (hell even 500hp) out of the 420A in a street car.

On top of that if you really did have a GSX why in God's name would you get rid of the AWD in favor of FWD?

Something sounds really messed up here. :-/

[corky]

Is that honestly an AWD converted to a 420A fwd?? Because you sure didn't keep the awd if you dropped a 420a in there.

Edit, after looking at the pics, this guy is blowing smoke up all of your asses. It's an RS or GS body that has been turbod and riced out. Nothing else.

[FbodTrek]

the colors, duke! The colors!

Boosted 420a... iiiiinteresting.
That's what I was thinking. I give props for turboing the "wrong" motor (or so they say). I always thought it would be an easy plumbing job personally. Oh, and I'd lose the wing too (but I LOVE that color idea)

no u ass i kept the tranny and AWD i just made the motor fit to the tranny with reasonable time and effort

[dsm_talon77901]

a AWD 420a Eclipse that is sum bull shit, take pics of under the car so we can see :eyesjack: i have a 420a eclipse :wompwomp:

[Mazda6]

cant wait to see it all done

[corky]

no u ass i kept the tranny and AWD i just made the motor fit to the tranny with reasonable time and effort


as stated in a PM sent to this guy:

Yea, bullshit. First off, unless you have an adaptor plate, that tranny/engine combo wont work not to mention your shifter cables would do the reverse of what they're supposed to, as on a GSX the tranny is on the passenger side, not the drivers, and by the pictures you showed on the thread, you dont even have an adaptor plate. Next, unless your transfer case is upside down and backwards, you dont have an AWD driveline. Also, your driveshaft would have to come under the engine to the front of your bay to connect to the transfer case. Finally, if it was an AWD to begin with, why is the ECU mounted in the engine bay like it is on the non turbos how they come out of the factory, as well as all the other things like the fuse box

Stop trying to continue a lie. You dont have an AWD 420A, no one does, and until i see pictures of under the car w/ a driveshaft and a rear diff from the front of the car where i can clearly see the 420a oil pan, you are a liar.

[corky]

Oh yea, forgot about the biggest giveaway. Your windsheild washer fluid bottle. AWD's dont have one in the front. We have one big resevoir in the trunk under the spare.

damn....wth?loose it all,shoulda kept it stock

damn
Boosted98GSX just owned u
i want to see a reply from this guy on his 'project'

[damn]

pwned pwnt owned

[Vorteck]

super owned . . . . nice work boosted98GSX . . . . you know too much

[TurbosRFunny]

He got owned, and i'm the NEWB!

[VolksFaggin]

first of all this motor can be built better than the 4g63 and can make more power plus there are more parts for it, the motor has been built up for us already when we bought it. It already is GSX it was a GSX when we bought it but i put the 420a in it (lot of work!) because i like that motor PLUS no one will recognize a GSX with a 420!


If the 420a was such a beast of a motor, then more people would be using it. :stare: You had a 7 bolt which I understand would make you want to swap, but you down graded. If you like it, then just state that is the reason, and quit trying to prove that the 420a is some kinda bad ass motor. Not to mention the vast amount of parts for the 4g63 that you could get and make the car even quicker.


and the reason i chose fiberlgass fenders, hood and the bodykit is because they all weighh less than stok parts we already removed 128 lbs of it just in body parts and put on 50.


Car came with no body kit before. The wing is extra weight, the hood is going to catch small dogs and cats in the scoop as you drive by. So you saved 78 lbs. If you like it though, then thats what matters, but please dont try to justify a bodykit as a weight loss regement.

The rest is just stupid. Your going to fuck around with trying to build a car with a magic neon motor, make 750 hp and put bags on it. :roflmao: Good luck pal.

whatever your car is... i just find it funny you'll do all that work only to have a drain hose from the turbo that's gonna weaken and fail and cook your motor and/or turbo.


plus your a ricer.

he hasnt posted since he got busted

[danny]

bump

[96_ECLPSE_GSX]

ok here goes the only reason i posted that shit was because i didnt want to get flamed for making a 420a FWD fast.. seems like alotta peeps have a prob with 420a's. but yea i give props to everyone who sed shit bout turning the transfer case upside down and the tranny, the motro backwards, brakes and sunroof. i didnt think most would notice but anyway props to them they deserve it. but dont laugh at the power!!!! call Hahn Racecraft and ask them for specs. ill let them put u in ur place. dont take my word for it aks them. they have one of the fastest track DSM next to john shepherd. so :stfu:

[bloc]

I'm going to call bullshit on 500hp out of a 420a, based on a number of things, not the least of which is you having already been proven an outright liar.

people dont have a problem with 420a's, they have a problem with idiots getting online and spreading misinformation that ultimately harms the dsm community.

since that hideous piece of crap isnt yours, tell the owner to sell it and get a real gsx with a real engine. on second thought, no.. lets not waste another perfectly good car.

[IntegraNationRR]

Didn't want to have to do this, but since you have to go and put :stfu: after your post, go ahead and click this link...

http://www.dsmtimes.org/fastest.htm

Show me on there where Hahn is even listed. They're not. Granted i've known about hahn for a long time and know they make decent turbo kits for the 420's, but you will NEVER be able to squeeze as much power out of a 420 as you can a 4g63 (hell you wont be able to even pull 500 out of it on a daily driven car). There is simply no aftermarket support for it compared to the 4g.

If that motor isn't built, you wont be putting more than 300 hp out of that turbo as you wont be able to boost more than 4-5 psi.

To make things short, dont go shooting off your mouth and trying to bullshit everyone. Go research.

Now, if you want to prove me wrong, go to the track and get some slips to back yourself up with. Until then, just shut up. Thanks.

u r right they r not listed on there becasue it is only 4g63 motors
WORLDS QUICKEST ECLIPSE RS! 10.87 @ 136 MPH Using Stage V Turbosystem w/ N20
and this isnt going to be a daily car
the motro is fully built for the turbo kit hahn sells the exact parts needed to support the power and also make it!

you never specified anything about 4G63's, you said DSMs. . .i also suppose you have the ENTIRE mod list for this 10 secong 420A motor? because it sure as hell isnt listed there.
