Has anyone rebuilt the 1.8 in this car yet ? I'm looking into doing one this weekend and wondering if I should just find an engine or go for It ..
Research shows this same engine was in the eagle talons as well . Does anyone have anything good to say about it ??

[DriverOne]

The Eagle Talon was a vehicle supported by Buschur Racing and Applied Technologies & Research of Fair Play, SC. I'm going to say that your chances are high for finding aftermarket support if necessary.

Its a dsm

[shadetree]

Anybody have proof there the same or know if the swap is direct bolt for bolt ?

[koRnhead]

Aftermarket support for the base 1.8?? No, my friend that's non existent. If you can find a running one. It would most likely be cheaper to swap, than to rebuild. Or just swap a 4g63t into it. And enjoy having the lightest of the dsm cars.

[koRnhead]

Yes, any 1.8 from a 1g dsm will be a direct bolt in.

[shadetree]

So no ecu change or wire plugs won't work ? Direct bolt . Has anyone done this .

[koRnhead]

If your just doing the 1.8, then yes. Direct swap. The joy of dsms is that it all swaps.

[shadetree]

So eagle talon to Plymouth laser is direct . Is there info on the bigger engine 2.0 or 2.2 whatever .how much is involved there ??

[koRnhead]

It's a 2.0. That would entail a full harness and ecu swap. There is a whole sub forum on dsmtuners.com for the N/A cars.

[bhazard]

All three cars are the same...talon laser eclipse. Identical cars.

[shadetree]

So does anyone have any information on how much can be shaved on a 1.8 dsm head ? My machine shop says it need 40 thou off to true it ??? I say its scrap now ...

Shadetree, I think you'd be best to join the tri-diamond star forums and seek your info there.
