And just like that's 23 years! I can't remember the last time I saw an Eclipse (any gen) or a Starion in the wild. Probably haven't been to a junk yard in a decade and I miss those finds dearly. I'm comfortably in my mid 40s, all cars gone, and only a Sprinter van remains. I'll post about it on the ...

It's been over a decade since my last wiring harness so I'm no longer going to be offering this service. I just don't think I can remember everything.

In late December 2019 this forum was shut down after 6 months of really bad spam making it nearly unusable. Today it's back!

Forums like ours have been on my mind recently as I realized how so few still are used. In the last decade, nearly all forum traffic has been syphoned off by Facebook ...

On one I used a press to change the offset a little on one. On another, I was able to press off the hub from the shaft and flip it which let me change the offset.

Nothing swapping the final drive wouldn't fix

Well you're right about that. Times have changed.

Bill is available through facebook as well as his site: https://www.billsautofab.com/

VSS is a pulse signal output that comes from the cluster (speedometer) in the Starion. Pretty sure there is no sensor on the trans for VSS.

Narrow block transmission options are more plentiful now than when this site was started so the need for a wideblock is less preferred now. Get a Billhousing from Bill Hincher and a narrow block and you'll be fine.

You are correct in that the DSM harness will connect the ECU to the motor, but it does not hook into the chassis so that it gets power from the correct fused sources and the signals go to the right connectors for the gauges and warning lights to all function as if it were a stock swap.

I basically ...

Thanks for posting. Looks great! What engine management are you using? I can't imagine you're using a stock ECU on there.

Sounds like a solid plan. Sounds like you're going with a DOHC head and wideblock 2.4, am I right? There should be pretty good info here if you need it.

Any chance you'll be in the market for a wiring harness? Should be pretty easy for me to splice your EFI truck wiring harness to a DSM wiring ...

I've been renovating my house since 2012 which is about the last time I did a harness. I'm pretty much done inside and can finally use my benches for wiring harnesses again. I've started building a test bench, have an oscilloscope and can do some serious testing on this stuff starting now.

Sorry ...

Oh no. That old page has seen better days. I'll see what I can dig up next week.

Seems as though everyone is cutting up the 240SX crossmember and welding the brackets onto the SQ crossmember. I moved the control arm holes up and out to better line up with the geometry of the 240SX. From there you ...

Finally the slow process of putting it back together starts.

The tail lights I've had since my very first SQ back in 2002. They've managed to stay pretty nice even having been lightly into a tire wall once. I never really had them on the race car unless it was a show or meet which was rare. I ...

The Zero is starting to come together. This swap started in August 2011. First start was in winter 2015. Finally getting it from paint in Nov 2015.

I am selling my Autronic SMC v1.92 (Autotune) on ebay.

If someone on here buys it for the asking price I will throw in a custom wiring harness (built to your specifications) for free (might charge a few bucks for new connectors ...

I bought this car 10 years ago when I realized that doing 4G63 swaps on Starions meant I needed a 2nd car. This car was completely unmodified so I could reliably get to work. It has been too. I put nearly 100,000 miles on it since I got it. Right now it sits at 195,000 miles, runs great, but ...

Narrow and wideblook 4G6x mounts are the same, but 2.6L G54B mounts are different. I doubt there is an OEM bracket that would let you bolt it in. Moving it forward seals the deal I think. You'll need to make your own brackets.

Is the B2200 the same chassis as the B2600... the one that had the 2.6L Mitsubishi enigne?

Junked the police car chassis, white chassis and stars and bar chassis back in the summer of 2011. Bought a rust free 87 a few days later and then started swapping all of the racecar parts over to it. Was supposed to be a few week swap. 4 years later I just took it for paint. Still needs to be tuned ...

You still buying parts or is this thing done / driving?

I dug one out for busdriver the other day. I feel like there is one more there somewhere.

Just remember that the 6 bolt motor was designed 40 years ago and even the DOHC version is nearing 30 with the last ones produced over 20 years ago.

Are you sure you want to put all this work into such a dinosaur?

Do you plan on going forged then? Have you checked out the Wiseco catelog?

Besides custom built, I doubt there are many state side, but possibly some on 7 bolt Great Wall pickup trucks from what I heard. Good luck.

I got your message and will gather up what ones I have left next time I'm at the shop. How does $80 sound? Inflation!

Which Starion block are you referring to? G54B (2.6L) or G64B (2.0L)?

Compatibility between a motor and chassis would probably go in General and the details of the motor / transmission can go into mechanical. Hope that helps.

Toyota is probably not using prison labor

What's a funk lock?

I feel like one the G54B brackts will work IF you drill a hole.

With a little measuring from my drawing in Sketchup and then rounding* I come up with this as my 2 triggers:

60, 30, 60, 30, 60, 30, 60, 30
30, 150, 70, 110

*I can't imagine the engineers who designed this would use arbitrary angles, so I'm not too scared rounding them to the nearest 5th degree ...

I figured I'd finally give moving the sensor to the front a shot. I was inspired by someone else who had done it, but with a 4 tooth trigger and no home to worry about syncing. I'm setting up for my car with a megasquirt (DIYPNP) which allows me to log the trigger signals and make other adjustments ...

China makes half the stuff we use, including the good stuff. That said, I bet a Toyota transmission would outlast a Great Wall transmission. My hope is that they copied a decent Toyota transmission to the degree that you can bolt a legit Toyota part to the bellhousing.

http://www.cinaautoparts.com ...

Watch one of us order one only to find they copied a Billhousing. China.

Can't read most stuff I'm finding. I imagine the 4G64 and 4G69 stuff is different. One transmission looks to have a detachable bellhousing, the other seems integrated.

Looks great. I'm sort of wondering why your engine mounts were located so far back when the OEM RWD mounting bolt holes look like they almost line up to the BMW's engine mounts.

Neat. I never heard about this.

Looks like the H3 has a 4G64 and has a RWD option. The H5 (X240) has a 4G63 or 4G69.

I'd like to learn more. What kinds of transmissions do these use? What DOHC head? Neat stuff.

Did you ever get this sorted out? I have personally used an RX7 cluctch kit on my Starion flywheel + B2600 Bellhousing + RX7 Turbo II transmission (S5).

The hall effect sensors in the blacktop are pretty much the same sensors you'll find on a 95/96, just cast into plastic that can fit in a cam sensor mounted to the back of the head. The "crank" trigger is simply the 2 tooth 95/96 design doubled to make 4 teeth. Inside of that ring there is another ...

Try it out, post what you find.

Also, the B2600 Bellhousing on the RX7 transmission in the RX7 will tilt the block to the exhaust side by several degrees. Not a bad thing really, puts the turbo lower making the downpipe routing easier. Might need to do a top mount turbo though.

How did it get to be 2014? I was rolling pretty good at first. Bought a house July 2012 and work came to a dead stop. Finally, just this past week, I got around to finishing the DIYPNP and installed it in the car. Powers up fine, the sensors I have tested so far are working. Next step is to figure ...

Its hard to believe it but I started this website when I began my first swap over 15 years ago. At the time the 6 bolt 4G63 was already out of production for a decade. Now its been out of production for TWENTY YEARS! Its pretty crazy how much work we're doing to swap an engine platform that was ...

The 2.6 head will crack if you look at it funny. There are some decent aftermarket castings (AMC) that are not quite as bad. While I came here to defend the 2.6, I think that by the time you get a solid head together you could have done a swap.

Otherwise, the 2.6 is an awesome bottom end. It could ...

What would we do without you Bill. Great stuff!

I had enough movement that I made extra parts to hold the o-ringed water neck into the head. On my 2nd one I just welded the neck onto head.

Sounds like its a hard time to be Greek. Best of luck getting your magazines. Relax a bit. Its just a magazine!

Where in Greece are you? I remember that during my two weeks on Corfu I saw more old Mitsubishi's than anywhere else in my life.
