i need to know cause my friend and I are going to pick up a 1g non-turbo with a broken timing belt for $200. If it is non-interfernce then we will be ok just to throw a new timing belt on it but if it is interference then we need to replace the motor. Does anyone know? We were looking for a project car for the summer and this may have to be it if we cant just fix it and sell it.

Hmm... I could have sworn there was a 4G63 forum around here somewhere... OH! There it is.

noone goes there lol...plus i need this answered right away cause Im leaving in 15 to go look at it

Oh... well I don't know. I don't own a 4g63.

i was lazy but i found it

straight out of vfaq "With the exception of the 1.8L NT engine, DSM engines are of the 'interference' style. This means that the pistons and valves occupy the same space"

Cool, looks like a rebuild will be in the future of that 1g. Good project car.

Holy shit, you actually looked for an answer and found it all by yourself! You didn't even need to post about it!!!!!


:rolleyes


And I would have answered the question 10 minutes ago if it were actually posted in the right forum. You know, the one where nobody ever goes.

A little more time, and this whole board will be pits and 1g section. The darkside will rule all, but everyone is in denial about it. Lollerblades.

yup.
2.0 NT interference
1.8 non-interference
this section is really all I check out on this board now. I used to be a pits-monger but it's getting kind of lame lately...
