what about a chip to boost performance for our engine?

unless you talking about a piggy back like the e manage ...no

where does one look to get a pair of eclipse front rotors, calipers and a master cylinder in Trini? How does the caliper offer up if the spindle is not changed?
The same length of brake lines would work back in the front, or these will have to be changed as well?
|
for the first part of the question ... 
second part, caliper is a direct bolt up to spindle and uses same lines. |

*sigh*...... Thanx blazing. i guess my EBC pads and arospeed rotors will have to do for now then. I really wish I could get the hook-up for these parts, lancer brakes really suck arse!!..... 
But I wonder if I understand the upgrade....... are the eclipse rotors larger in diameter? if so, how can the caliper be rebolted in the same position on the stock spindle? U don't need to relocate the caliper?

I really wish taht you would stop saying this man, yuh making them sound bad
You under-estimate the brakes that you have and you have 4 wheel discs with EBC pads
I running stock brake setup - front disc with GIC pads and rear drums with OEM shoes
My car does stop real good and I drive a lot harder than you on most times
I wouldn't mind a lil better stopping power (espcially @ dex) and hoping to achieve this with the EBC pads
but with the setup that you have and not even closely using it to it's potential, you should have real braking power man.
| Quote: | | the 4g15 has a flat spot somewhere around 3k - 4.5k rpm |
somebody please elaborate on this
I think that the power band of the DOHC 16V EFI 4G15 is 3800 - 5200 rpm, because this is where I notice the main power comes from during acceleration
also during spirited driving the tranny shifts gears mostly withing this range (closer to the 5000 rpm end)
hardly below and hardly above when a sudden kick down on the gas pedal is given
often when I am driving around 2500rpm and I suddenly step on the accelrator and the tranny downshifts to "3" the tacho swings up to 4000rpm and stays there until the tranny shifts back up to "4"
is this that flat spot you are talking bout?
should the engine then rev up past 4000 rpm?
please explain? |

Sorry man, its just that after driving an EK3 Civic (rear disc) and a B16 Almeria, I find lancer brakes really leaves something to be desired.
The initial bite these cars have is a lot more than a lancer. And I talking Stock OEM brake pads.
But to be on the fair side, these cars also run their OEM 14" rims. I might have to put on back my 14" to really compare them. |

call me the mitsu hoe for defending the CK brakes eh 
but Blazing bro,
just consider what you are comparing the CK Lancer brakes to b4 making that statement
Eclipse to Lancer | Powerhouse to economy sedan
the stock setup on my Lancer stops the car in a perfectly safe distance and with proper bias to maintain a controlled stop
with Dex as my only motive for n upgrade (EBC Green Stuff)
the stock brakes work perfectly |

long time since this thread surfaced
well I changed my timing belt at 85,000km
needed to change 3 oil seals in the engine head, so I did teh timing belt one time
mileage is now 138,000km and I need to change the tappet pan gasket
saw some oil stains leaking down teh back and from of the head & block
problem is not too bad right now
the gasket is practically impossible to get locally - no where in south has it
there are several places that have the 12V SOHC 4G15 gasket though ~ TT$55.00
my resort is to buy from a powerseller who will bring it from Singapore or Japan
machined the rotors and drums lately also
using some Wagner brake pads currently, so far they are working and very quietly so
the CK2 is very faithfully earning her keep |

^^Yea, a group buy should be in order. That would make U, me and venum who's interested in brining down a spare tappet pan gasket.
Venum, were U able to confirm that part no. I gave U for the gasket, MD 312887? What's the cost involved? |
