I'm picking up another piece of the puzzle tomorrow.

[Dasfinc]

Buying a full 4G63 motor tomorrow on lunch

And then selling it missing a few things this weekend hopefully

huh?

 

[Euro]

what motor is that

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

4G's are what come in eclipses and the newer version (facing the other way, whats with that?) in the evo's

 

[Poopshinanigans]

Turbo system for the Civvy?

 

[Dasfinc]

Its the turbo motor out of a 1993 Mitsu eclipse GSX.

I got it for a mint, with the turbo and injectors (which will both work quite nicely on my civic)

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

ah gotcha. will the whole thing fit in my crx? hell i should just pick up a wrecked gsx and throw the drivetrain under it.....hmmm....

 

[Dasfinc]

I've been 'acquiring' parts as I see them for free/cheap cheap cheap....

so I have a resistor box *needed for DSM injectors*

I have a GM 3 BAR map sensor *needed for boost levels over 8PSI*

and now I'll have DSM 450cc Injectors and a 14b Turbo with its down pipe and oil lines

Now I just need to keep an eye out for a DSM B-series turbo manifold, IC piping, and some good fuel management (and most likely a new walbro fuel pump)

I'm aiming for 10PSI for less than $500 :wink:

There are a few 4G civics in the US, but none with AWD that I have seen.

There is a 4WD turbo D16 powered CRX on www.homemadeturbo.com thats pretty cool.

The long block minus the turbo and injectors is forsale for $350 obo incase anyone is interested or knows anyone that needs one.

Actually the GM 2 bar reads to 14.53psi, and the 3 bar is like 40ish psi. Same output voltage, just less resolution.

I know the 2 bar reads 14, but the OEM honda MAP only reads 1 bar.

Maybe someone can check for me? its the MAP off a 99 Pontiac Montana van with a 3400, Looks just like the rest of them, so I'm not SURE its a 3 bar or 2 bar.

Its a 2 bar.

Its a 2 bar.

Meh, Good enough, I just want it to be able to see up to 12PSI and I'll be happy.


Are they all wired the same?

3 bar should read to 28 psi...

 

[Ron Vogel]

Yeah, I never used it or worked with it personally, but that's probably right.


I think your Montana MAP may only be the 1 bar though.

any way to check? I got it for free, so its not a huge loss if its a 1 BAR

 

[Mickey]

Your shit is going to smoke like a bastard just watch. Did you check the turbo for shaft end play?

My friend had checked the turbo and motor out for me last week while I was at work, He says it all looks good, and had no play, and for the price I paid, i can afford having it rebuilt.

One bar is a unit of pressure. 1 Bar = standard atmospheric pressure, 14.7 psi.

A "1 bar" MAP reads from zero psig, to negative 14.7 psig (0-100 kPa). A two-bar like a GTP has can read from -14.7 to 14.7 psig (0-200 kPa). A three -bar reads one bar negative, two bar positive, so -14.7 to +29.4 psig (0-300 kPa).:smile:

I hope you got the drivetrain fixed first, b/c a turbo won't do much if the car can't go

 

[Mirz]

your so fuckin stupid

 

[DanJ]

free post before the clusterfuck

your so fuckin stupid

Love you too
