Very light car, Full Fiber Glass Chassis, Full Drag slicks, More than Likely Running NOS ( like most Inferior American drag cars) = quick passes.

A 4cyl running 6s inferior? Got a bit of confusion there?

Loving the Pantera background music.

how does this work? i don't understand how a 2 litre 4 cylinder engine can get power like that!!!! please inform me lol

I owned a FWD Eclipse Turbo and an AWD Talon Turbo (same thing, different badge) and I can tell ya from experience that they are pocket rockets. They are a bit on the heavy side for their size, but they respond very well to modifications. I know for a fact you can get them into the 10-11sec area very easily. The 4G63 is a friggen amazing motor. Completely bulletproof. Same thing in the Evo and they aren't exactly slow. There is a video of a 4G63 powered Mighty Max pick-up truck floatin around on the internet too. Worth a look if you can find it.

like most Inferior American drag cars

That's a ridiculously ignorant statement by the way.

I wonder what parts that car has left on it that are factory eclipse

I've seen full interior Eclipse's running high 9's, but 6's are a long way away from 9's.

you really dont know whats been done to the motor.

a motor with smaller bores and a longer throw could still make 2L but result in a higher revving motor which could power a turbo that size.

and calling that thing an eclipse is like calling the pac performance drag car an mx6.

well: first you start with a truck-load of cash, and then....

Uhhh I dont think the amazing thing is that it was an Eclipse...

Its the fact they ran that sort of a time at that sort of an MPH with a 2L 4cyl engine that is unbelievably amazing.

Goes to show how impressive the American drag racing scene is when you think thats comparable to the times Signorelli is running with a 3L 6cyl 2J in his Camry...

Awesome, awesome car

Just curious, there are many people putting RB30 bottom ends onto RB25 or RB26 heads, but I've never heard of anyone replacing the 2 litre 4g63 with a 2.5 twin turbo from a Galant, why is that?

Holy Jesus that thing is nuts!

Imagine going for a spin to the shops for some milk and eggs in that thing!

Haha, like "7S AWD" or whatever it is?? John Shepherd's full chassis Mitsi Talon in the states, best time is 7.7s running a 4G63. Its far more like its original form than the HKS GTR or the Heat Treatments GTR.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
