#11176, "Upgrade Engine?"


          

My 1995 Eclipse GS has 68,000 miles on the new engine the car has 110,000 what if I get a Cyclone Engine? I get power and a new motor enough to kick a 1999 V6 Firebirds ass right?

I agree and even if there was a chance, all the modifications would come to a lot of $$.
like I said before your cheapest bet is Turbo or Nitrus.

Correct me if I'm wrong but a JDM Cyclone engine is nothing more than a 1G 4G63 motor with different turbo set-up and intake. I remember a site from awhile back that could get them, but they were all different. Different mileage, different years, different turbo set-ups...

I agree with Eclipse GST. 1G 4g63 is what I've heard. I've also heard, it's basically the 4g63 engine before America tunes it down. emoji

even if it is the modifications that have to be made to make it fit are quite a few. in cluding transmission ones, not just motor mounts.

whole engine bay and drivetrain is different on a 4g63 versus a 420a.. from what i've heard.. so unless you already got a 4g63 in there.. wouldn't be a good idea.. you could buy a whole new car for probably what it'd cost ya..

by the way there is a 98 eclipse GSX for sale at the dealership I work at.. nice car.
