just wanting to know the diff between a 6 bolt engine and in what eclipse does it come in also wats the good and the bad of buying a car that has been awd converted also wat the biggest prob people have had withs this if any

 

theres no problem with a car being converted to awd because it is just bolting stuff on, no real custom work done.

the 6 bolt and 7bolt stuff is in a sticky at the top of this section

"What is a 6 bolt? What is a 7 bolt? What is the difference? What is my car?
The 6 bolt 7 bolt refers to how many bolts hold on the flywheel. Some differences in the engine's include stock turbo size, exhaust housing size, intake manifold, agressiveness of the cams, and engine managment. While 7 bolt engines can be built up just as much as the 6 bolt's, DSM'ers prefer 6 bolts becuase they are more reliable, and less likely to crankwalk. Generally speaking, if you own a 1g built in 90, 91, and early 92 you have a 6 bolt, and if you own a 1g built in late 92, 93, 94, or a 2g you have a 7 bolt."

 

1 has 6 bolts on the flywheel and the other has 7

 

well that explaines it all pretty much b cuz im in the market for and have been offered a couple of things but still trying to decide between this and a acura integra but lets see they as i see dsmer's say that some of there cars arent reliable as say a honda once modifyed but i guess its all on the treatment then engine and the car gets motor wise wats the diff in gst gsx in 2g eclipses

 

lol damn dude.. 95-99 2gs gst is turbo fwd gsx is turbo awd. rs is like base model i think and gs is like the better model without turbo. and spyder is convertible 95-96 have ugly ass front and rear bumpers and turbo models dont have the high rise wing. get a gsx if you can.. but p[rice will probably get you.. but you can convert it to a gsx down the line with almost all bolt on parts

 

i now half of that but i wanna know gst gsx the things that are diff as in valve size turbo exhuast manifold intake manifold lobes on the cam waste gate thang of this nature u know but thanx fo dat mini truckin seems like you gettin a gst to convert to the gsx good luck im gonna see wat wil happen

 

the only difference between the two is the gas tank rear suspension tranny because it is a awd.. there is no actual difference besides it is set up for all 4 wheels to move lol.. correct me if im wrong..

 

this will probably help you

an integra making the same hp as a dsm will break just as much. these cars make 300hp like nothing so they will make more hp than most integras alot easier, hence why they seem to break more. keep the hp low if you really dont want to break. 300hp can be really reliable.
