kastein Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 :dunno: dodge neon or plymouth neon? :rotf: BTW... silicon might be a decent choice for an exhaust gasket, if you could get it into the proper form, say powdered silicon held together by a graphite or fiberglass (non-composite) matrix. Silicone on the other hand, HELL NO! It will burn, smell terrible, leak, poison the O2 sensors and cat, etc etc... and speaks volumes about the vehicle builder's intelligence. THEY ARE DIFFERENT!

DJM/78 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Cool car man , I had two of them . One of them had more mods than that , I bought that one the same way , mostly tricked already , however those parts are designed for racing , not driving daily , its only a mater of time that the turbo corrodes the exhaust valves , the crank goes for a walk in the park and the dual friction clutch takes a dump in your wallet . Why do you think all that stuff has been replaced already ? Turbos usually blow their seals every 30k miles and they have the ever hated timing belt and tensioner . If you even slip two or three teeth on those high friction motors , your going to bend every valve in the exhaust or intake side , or both . That happened to me three times on two different cars , one time was a faulty tensioner , another time it was just the tensioner pully . Just my two cents , fix it up best you can and sell it for a profit and sell the thing to some unsuspecting kid who doesn't know better . Listen to the guys on the site , we must know something . Sure fix it up have fun but don't keep it long at all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeepcoMJ Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Well I like the carIt's running good The pictured turbo is not one in the car... It's not the greatest could have gotten somethingbetter for the moneybut I'm happy so idc ...you overpaid by almost $2000 according to bluebook. you could have bought a running driving ready to go 97+ cherokee with 120k miles, zero rust, and driven it to the ground over the next 15 years. take Rob's advice. fix it, and sell it like it's stolen. this is a WORSE deal than the bastardized MJ you bought (and sold).

one_bad_MJ Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Supposedly the motor was being built to be a drag car....Thats Y it was rebuilt and also bc he ran it without oil haha thats as bad as slowboyracing building a 30,000 evo and they toss it on the dyno with no oil in it. haha i was there that day it was funny. anyways when your 4G63 POS dsm breaks again check out our website. http://www.cimotorsports.net low prices fast shipping tell me why anyone takes a fresh engine to the dyno anyway? slowboyracing because ther idiots i didnt work for them so don't think that. www.cimotorsports.net is our shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
