Guest FrancesTheMute Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 Well, I've been searching for either a Talon or Eclipse and I finally found a nice ESi in my area. Since both engines are the same, 2.0L FWD 4Cyl. I would assume that the parts I looked up for the Eclipse RS I almost bought would fit on my ESi, but I wanted to make sure. Even if they didn't bolt on perfectly, I'm sure it would only take minor modifications. Here is what I was planning on slapping on the engine: -K&N Air Filter -Injen RD Cold-Air Intake -GReddy Evo 2 Cat Back Exhaust -GReddy 4-1 Headers -Venom Intake Manifold This shit fits the RS, but I can't find it for the ESi, will it still fit? I'd like to know before I make the purchase, any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwishiwascool Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 They are the exact same slow car. All those parts will work. You should not waste your money on it. It will never be fast by anyone's definition. /bubble burster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwishiwascool Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 PS. Your car sponsorship link is a scam that takes advantage of naive kids who think their ugly as sin honda civics actually have "sponsors" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will never be fast by anyone's definition. /bubble burster Hmm...let me think about this. Ok, lemme start here. A) It's my car, who the fuck are you to tell me it's a waste of money. B) I know the ESi isn't that fast, I'm well aware of it. C) I'm not looking for a huge hp car, I can't afford the insurance, the Army doesn't pay that well. D) I could care less what anyone's definition of fast is, if I want fast, I'll drive my mom's 06 350Z or the Triumph TT600 that's sitting in my backyard. So please, before you go spouting off stupid shit, please think before you open your mouth. As for the sponsorship link, like I give a fuck, I wasn't dumb enough to pay $90 for them to find me sponsors when I can do it myself...not my concern if someone is dumb enough to click the link, it just gives me free money for referring them. I'm counting on idiots with crappy civics that think their car is fast to click the link, it's called strategy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBussman1647545507 Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 .......... but yes they will fit the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FrancesTheMute Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 Well, I never said those were the only upgrades planned, those were just the initial...I could always turbo the engine, which I might do down the road, or engine swap for a TSi AWD motor...this is just temporary, and for fun. It's just my commuter car anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwishiwascool Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 What kind of motor is a TSi AWD motor anyway? Ive always wondered. I bet that swap is super easy. No moving motor mounts or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FrancesTheMute Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 Whoever said the swap would be easy? I enjoy having some fun with my car. It's not the first time I've had to do a motor swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 What kind of motor is a TSi AWD motor anyway? Ive always wondered. I bet that swap is super easy. No moving motor mounts or anything. The "AWD" version of a TSI motor is good for an extra 20 ponies. You didn't know this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
still2hi Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Do not buy this car please...

Guest powers Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 D) I could care less what anyone's definition of fast is, if I want fast, I'll drive my mom's 06 350Z or the Triumph TT600 that's sitting in my backyard. Since when are either one of those fast? You need to understand what a fast car is so you will stop wasting your time with non turbo talon.
