#72465, "Need a new Eclipse engine asap"


          

Hello. I wasn't sure where to post this so I chose General. I'm looking for a rebuilt or used 97-99 Eclipse GSX engine for sale. My engine recently kinda went on me. The local mechanic shop I go to said they think it is a bad rod bearing (and possibly a warped crank). I'm having them make sure before I go and get a new engine or anything, but they recomend I get one just to be safe. They can get me one for around $4000. I'd like to find one for cheaper if I could. If anyone has one for sale or knows someone with one for a decent price let me know. Thanks.

Post this in the for sale/wanted. I'm not even gonna bother with the whole deal with the mechanic, that's your own thing.

1. Why is this ad on 2GNT???

2. Why is this in the General forum???

3. Another reason I like my 420A better than a 4G63, crankwalk's a bitch aint it? emoji

Yeah bro, if you're looking for a GSX, you're looking for a Mitsubishi 4g63. Our motors are the Chrylser 420a. Not compatable or interchangable. Try dsm.org or dsmtuners.com or something like that.

Good luck!

Woah bad bearings and warped crank! Crankwalk! AAHHHH!!!!


Go to www.dsmtrader.com and look there. Also the classifieds section at www.dsmtuners.com.

These engines are incredibly hard to find. Good luck. And if it is crankwalk, it is just going to happen again most likely. Good luck with that.
