so lemme know fellas, benefits/downfalls of using a GSR box, diff and tcase etc with an evo engine?

also, where can i get a full syncro set for the gsr box?

janfar · Posted: Mon Oct 26, 2009 8:49 am Post subject:

Well for one, im guessing the rating for max torque on the GSR box may be lower on than that of an evo box. Why not buy an evo box and tcase and done.

well i was just thinkin, since the (correct me if wrong) gsr box would allow more top end, if i modded the 63, it wouldve made up for the less max torque loss and balanced off to be a nice combo.

if i decided to go this route tho, where would i go about getting syncros for the 93 gsr box?

Maybe out of the US DSM eclipse that carried the 4G93T engine. Go up on DSMforums and check them out.

I used to say that i will never sell it until my bank account started to bleed by the thousands per day. I giving it one last shot at redemption with this FU engine that i acquired yesterday. Have that installed and once she gives me a month of only gas input i will be on. In the mean time, who could get the timing belt kit for me.

janfar,are you doing any maintainance on the engine b4 u put it in? change out filters, oils, lines, belts etc? would be good to change a few things so it leaves less room for something to go wrong.

belt kit, not sure, check w2j ?

janfar · Posted: Tue Oct 27, 2009 4:23 am Post subject:

Yeh. Well, its a front cut. So im pulling down the gearbox and checking the clutch to see the state of it. Changing the release bearing and back seals. Will change all the water line to high pressure high teperature line. I want to change the timing belts and seals in front the engine. All oils and filters to be changed. Any other maintenance to be done will be done now. So when it goes in it will all be well. Well hopefully.

YHPM.

But when yuh buy the front cut u take the engine and sell bonnet, fenders, bumper, lights and all the other bits that you dont need. You would make back at least 5k from what you spent.
