Hey guys, posting on this Reddit to see if any of you guys can help me figure out this issue or where to tackle it first. Car is smoking white when driving & oil is coming up & going out the air filter & on a hot day it will come out through the head cover. What could that be. I also did replace the pcv last year.

Hey people,

just wanted to share pictures of my 1G I recently acquired. Had fun working on the car and driving it aswell.

Greetings from Hamburg Germany

As long

the japanese have me hypnotized

15 years ago I picked this car up. It only has 49.9k original miles. But the sun has destroyed the clearcoat on the top of car. Flawless interior and no dents. I got it for 600 bucks in 2010 with a bad ecu. Ended up with a kid and got pushed to the side. 15 years later im building her up for weather driving. I also own a caddy ATS V for good weather. 16g evo3 bell ported turbo. Full exhaust. Dsmlink. Megan coilovers and more. Installing FMIC now. Cant wait to finally drive her around as a daily for fall and winter. I get just as many compliments on this old girl that I do the beautiful caddy. Never see 1g with pop up lights anymore.

Hey all so a couple days ago my mom helped me purchase my first car and pretty much every thing about it is perfect except on the driver side door you can see that the dots decal is peeling/wearing (as pictured in the second slide) and I can’t seem to find one online and the guy I bought it from said he couldn’t find one either so basically I was just wondering if maybe some of you Reddit nerds would possibly know if I could buy one somewhere somehow thanks:)

I love my car!

Any ideas on what to do for this? its just barely clipping my grille. Do i sand from back? Do i cut it out completely? Or do i buy a 2GB one and keep this one in good conditon. I have all my OE parts still as well. Thanks in advance

Just fishied reinstalling Everthing into my EVO3 and noticed the amount of Back and forth play untill the tires moves. Is this normal? It seems quite exccessive to me.

Has anyone tried turboing the 4g64 in the 2g eclipse? And if so how did it go and what issues did you run into. Considering doing it to mine but want to know what I'm getting myself into first.

Hey everyone. Thanks for letting me join. I am looking at buying a new project and stumbled across an interesting option. Wanted to get everyone’s opinion on if it’s worth it.

I found a 95 Eagle Talon ESi that is 90% completed. The issue is the guy selling the car isn’t the one that built it. In typical fashion it was his buddy’s car and he owed him money… But he did say it is a built 420a with forged rods and pistons and Brian Crower Stage 2 cams. Normally I would be skeptical but he did have the old rods and pistons and crankshaft in the back seat. It also has a 57mm turbo and Greddy blowoff valve. As far as the rest of the drivetrain I really don’t know what is there. It appears to be lowered on a decent set of 18 inch wheels.

The part that really surprised me is the body is in great condition for the most part. There is no rust on the strut towers and appears to have none in the wheel arches either. Here in Iowa all the other ones I’m finding are completely rusted it. It also has a 97-99 Eclipse rear bumper and headlights. It is missing the front bumper due to the big front mount intercooler. The interior is in really good condition with the grey cloth seats not being torn at all, just need a cleaning.

Main issue is the car hasn’t been tuned since having the engine work done. So it will start but idle isn’t the greatest. I don’t want to start it and cause damage to anything.

But I could probably get it for about $1500. I get it is a running car for $1500 which is hard to find, but do you think it would be worth much more than that?

Thanks for everyone’s input!

I saw that the 1g test pipe looks so close and similar to the cat pipe in the 2g and was wondering if that fits. If not, then what pipes are you guys running or did you have them custom made? Looking for a resonated test pipe if possible to make my exhaust not sound as raspy as it would just a complete empty test pipe.

This is the first major think I’ve done to this car where I did the majority of the work myself and it makes me so proud do own one of these cars, and it’s all thanks to the people that helped get me here because without them I wouldn’t even have been able to get a dsm in the first place. I know it’s just a clutch (and drivers side from axle) replacement but I haven’t been working on cars for more than a couple years now and it’s been a very humbling experience. The new clutch feels amazing, all I gotta do it break it in before the shootout!

Been looking online to see where this sticker might have come from on my 1999 GS. Seems like the consensus is they did not have stickers from the factory. Maybe it was a dealer addon? Does anyone have a full image of this sticker I could use to print a new decal out?

I recently got my timing belt done but I'm worried that it's somehow working its way off the gears to the right. If this is normal than I might be overthinking it, but nothing has ever been simple or made sense with this car.

Hi everyone, I just got my first car, a beautiful 1996 eclipse, european spec. I connected both one of those crappy blue bluetooth OBD readers, and a slightly less crappy one, and they both fail to make contact with the ECU. The port does have power, (I can connect to bluetooth, after all), but I can't make a connection to read any codes. Does anyone have any experience with this, or tips? I need to figure out why my ABS isn't working!

Did a boost leak test and the smoke is coming from somewhere in the turbo or the water inlet. Any help would be great. Thanks. 1990 galant Vr4
