    OK so its been quite a while since I gave this car any attention whatsoever. I've been traveling a lot for work the past few years and the car has been sitting under a cover in my driveway. I always said I would get around to fixing it but I never manage to make time to do so. She needs...

  3. FS: 93 Eclipse GSX AUTO $4,500 FIRM NY 89K

    Hey guys,I've got a 1993 Eclipse GSX AWD Auto. It has the 4 bolt rear end. Originally I bought it as a parts car for a spare motor, and the auto swap for the galant. But since the car is so clean I have changed my mind and decided to sell. Also because I got a good deal on a 2G PI billet...
  4. galant vr4 alternator into AUTO 93 Eclipse GSX

    this is what I am concerned about. I found this on the VFAQ"For auto owners, Kyle Zingg posted that the alternator for the auto cars has a different part number, at least for 1Gs. The part number for the 1G auto alternator is MD153843. Manual owners have the same alternator on both the turbo...

    Hey I'm looking to buy a 1g as a parts car and the guy says he is waiting to get a new title since he lost it. He has a registration card and said that he will have the bill of sale notarized?

  7. been theory crafting a build for a while now....

  8. Idle issues associated with Tial BOV?

    OK so my car is at the shop right now for the ETS FMIC install. I had a used tial Q BOV that I figured I would use with the setup. However, the shop is telling me that "The car doesn't like to hold an idle with the Tial blow off valve. Cars seem to be hit or miss with a vented BOV and your...

  10. 1g vs 2g auto trans

    I'm looking to purchase an automatic dsm so that I can part it out and keep some stuff and sell the rest. I want to swap the galant over to an automatic.

  13. ABS Delete Kit from STM

    I just called up STM to ask if their 1g ABS Delete Kit would work on the VR4. Of course, the non-abs prop valve is the one I need. The question is whether or not the lines are the same length as the 1g cars. They said that they were not sure since they never installed it on the VR4. They are...
  14. towing with another car?

    Hey this seems like a pretty dumb question, lol, but I am going to ask it anyway. Is it possible to install a hitch on a car and tow a galant on one of those uhaul auto carriers with a v8 car? I assume the only thing different about a truck that would give it the power to tow would be its...
