    Hello , there was a lot of time i havent post here !

     

    So what's new to my car :

    ECU dead ( thats why the car has lot of trouble ), cant find an other one , and i wanted to open the engine to rebuild and surprise ... Two pistons were broken , see the pic attach files !

    Ive buy a big intercooler , and now i want to rebuild the engine with DOHC head ( because cant find stock pistons 85.5 and pistons rings ).and more of that , no ECU for the 8v !

    I go to an AEM EMS-4 ecu.

    So yeah im going 16v DOHC head from an 1G eclipse 6bolt , with forged pistons and rods and maybe a 2.3 strocker crank , not sure if i do that or no. I buy the head and all other parts i need to adapt my wide block yet.

    I have a question , how many torque the stock gearbox can handle ? Ive heard about rx7 / supra gearbox swap.

    Because if i broke the gearbox when the car is finish thats not cool ! :P

    I think im going to 400hp for the moment , or more if the gearbox can handle.

     

    Thanks you mates !

    Thanks for this link ! :)

     

    Merci ! Le 4G63 est très marrant même en 8S :) ! ( The 4G63 is very funny even in 8V ! )

    At the start i wanted to swap the top with the 16s evo 3 , but i think i will stay on the stock engine.

     

     

    Maybe in 2 month , i will paint all the car with the evo X white ( i think ! ) . Some pic of the part i have now ;) ( I have the US front lip and corner light too but not pictured )

    Rapierfr , but now not very sure haha. Thanks :) , if you can help me for that it will be cool !

    Yeah its an EX model !

    I hope to make a good project on this car , but its hard for me because there are no parts , not enough seller want to ship to France... Or with huge shipping price .

    And here Mitsubishi dont know this car !! :( .

    For the moment maybe i will buy some parts from a starquestclub member. ( for the front ).

    Impartient to start this project i just need some important parts ( bushings / and fronts parts ). :)

    What do you think about bushing homemade ? Its possible ?

    As u can see , the front bumper / lip / headlight / corner of the grill and grill are broken / rusty .

    This time i prepare the car for the paint and chassis rebuild ( sway bar / D2 coilovers / Bushing ( i dont find a bushing kit just some parts ) / and then paint of chassis ... )

    The car have lot of electrical problem , so i try to rebuild all too ( its hard for me but i think i can do this)
