Re: WTB 97 Gst Cylinder Head
I've looked into that 1st gen head on a 7 bolt but not sure all what that entails and how long it will take and most importantly if it will fix my problem. I'm sure you'll kick me in the @$$ when I say this but I bought a car from Motorsport by base (just PCSed from Japan). 1997 Eclipse Gst ran good for about 2 months then I get over heating problems. Bad therostat and replaced it. Then started to get oil in my coolant. Took it to the dealership they fiddle with it for like 3 months and its still not fixed. Now not trusting their work I wanna do it myself but not sure where to look. I have no shaft play in my turbo but not sure how to check the seals. I'm not sure if its my oil cooler but can check when I change the oil (which IMO is pointless because I'm lossing oil in the first place). So only thing i can think of is they didn't either A.) Seat the head gasket right B.) Cracked head C.) Bad Seals in the turbo.. How much would you charge to do the 1Gen head job and what parts do I need. I honestly bought the car to learn now to tune DSM's but this was a little sooner than expected. I know I can score a 1st gen head rebuilt for 200 shipped. What else would I need assuming throttle body and intake mani..
