I can't think of any sites off the top of my head. A couple of my boys have that car and it is nasty!!!!! I love them. With just minor bolt ons you get big power.

IF and only IF i was to get an eclipse it would be that year and a GST, she made a good choice. all the other models are horrible on maintence and parts, always breaking down.

hope it was a first gen dsm motor. other gens they use a 4 bolt pattern in the head which lead to burning out around 50k miles no matter how you drove it, and eventually crankwalk.

these apply to the talons. im using talon = gst cause i dont think there is a difference.

actually the 4 bolt pattern on the head was not bad on the 2nd gens.... it was not as good as the first gens but does not result to blowing after 50,000 miles... and yes the 2nd gens did use the seven bolt crank instead of the six bolt which COULD... notice i say could, result in crankwalk.... a good sight to visit is www.machv.com

they also have forums here, you will learn many things about dsms, pretty much all you want to know. they also carry all sorts of parts for the 4g63

Go get the new Sport Compact Car (Yellow ITR on cover)... There's a 4G63 tuning guide in there. It looks pretty good and you may want it for reference in the future.
