I just found out my engine is shot. I have a 99 gs and don't want to go back with the stock 420a. Any suggestions on a bolt in engine or what would be the best to do, rebuild with a high performance kit or go J-spec

WOW one post and you already made yourself look bad.... LOL @ J-Spec

options are in order of difficulty:

1-Build and boost 420a
2-2.4 Swap
3-Speak to the guys @ RedefinedRides.com about their 4g63 AWD swap.

fuck that I say go Jspec. Call up one of them importers and ask for a JDM engine. I believe an SR20DETT engine fits, I've seen it done.

I'm not going to bash you cause you don't know any better, but I will say I hope you have two, maybe three flame suits on hand.

Ok first off I didn't come up here to get slammed by anyone, I don't know jack about eclipse engines or rice engines in general. I've been more of a v8 person putting over 10 grand in my camaro. I just needed advice not ure smart mouths.

Personally, I say go JDM. Sure it's not as fast as a J-spec engine, but it's smog legal.

I just dont understand how DSM owners get a rap for being assholes...

i dont wanna ruin everyones fun here, but we all must remember that at some point, we knew as little as him (how many of us thought we could just buy a nt, and then swap in a turbo from a 4g63)
the only thing is how many knew to search before they asked a question they thought was legit??

so i say before we go scaring away newcomers, just answer their question as simple as possible, tell them they should use the search, and be on their way.

that is all.

YOU CAN SWAP IN A "4G63 TURBO". It's been done. Look through the archives. However I am more forgiving at someone who ask if we can swap a 4g engine in there rather than someone who came in here asking about a JDM/Jspec engine. Only tells me one thing. You bought a 420a eclipse for all the wrong reasons. Use search Supraeclipse. Just think of this as a fraternity hazing. Take your licks and move on. Afterall, it's just a grain of salt. You'll find a wealth of information from searching. I hardly ever post a problem about my car because it would already be fixed from using the search button. You will learn a lot from this sight. You learn a lot more when people point out your flaws right?

sorry one thing is to not know (a situation most of us were at at one point)another is to be lazy and just ask a retarded ass question without even bothering to read up on the basics of the car gets on everyones nerves.

-97 GS (First project, 299 whp)(sold)

- 99 GS OZ, Hahn Kit, 56k miles (Sold)

- 00 Nissan Maxima GLE (Daily Driver)
- 02 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro

I think that somebody should make a section where we put questions like this. Maybe it could be called "Things we've seen before," and it could live at the top of the forum.

Just a thought...

im tellin ya... we need to have a "entrance process" to be a member of 2gnt. ya cant post or read untill you take a quiz on the rules of the sight, or at least demonstrate how to use a mock-up search button...

I don't know if this is possible with programing or not ... but maybe if when you try to make your first post you get re-directed to the "Things we've seen Before" or something like that?? I'm sure Admin thought of something like before and maybe it's not possible and that's why it doesn't exist?? I agree with above ^^^^, this should be locked at this point.

Ok Guys relax i will translate for our "challenged" newb

So what this guy is saying is that he spend 10,000 in his camaro, got a couple tickets, couldnt afford to drive it becasue of gas prices, insurance, and he is a broke ass. His parents made him sell the car to some 16 yr old that wrapped it around a tree because he thought it was a good winter car and to top it off his parents want their 10,000 he put in the car back. He now has to fix up a 4 cylinder because the insurance is too high on a kamaro and he is getting kicked out in a month.

Nothing against camaro's, they serve as a good car for all the dumb fucks who think they "know how to box" to work on.

Eh he should save some money for the weak rear end GM put in the f-bodies........
