4g94??

i heard that the throttle body from the eclipse is completely compatible with the 4g94 in the lancer, is this true? is the eclipes throttle body better than ours? also i heard that the 88-89 rx7 high impendence injectors are compatible for the lancer, is this true? anybody know of a light weight flywheel for my engine? any help is appreciated. thanks

Fidanza makes a light weight flywheel for the 4g94.

A friend of mine hasn't made the injectors work yet. It's not sealing properly on the fuel rail. We have gotten longer bolts . . . Don't believed that he has hacked his harness.

Also, you don't need bigger injectors if you don't plan upgrading to a bigger MAF and tune it w/ an AFC. W/O tuning, you'll get erratic idle and fuel trim delivery. Ya, at 460cc for NA, you'll never able to tune it down with an AFC.

As for TB, there is more to that . . . you'll fight idle surges all day long. Maybe, 1 out of a bunch of miragers had tried this has fixed the idle surge. There are so many variables that we haven't isolated the problem. One of them is the sensor.

Jesus, I'm not a rapist basketball Player.

RX-7 Injectors are rather large. Check the WRX before you check the RX-7. With these size injectors you'd certainly also need a higher flowing fuel pump.

I dunno about answering them all, but I help with what I can.

As for the TB...I would be slightly suprised if it fit, but if anyone happens to have a 1g TB lying around it's a really easy swap. Just unbolt and replace the coolant lines.

Speaking on behalf of the 4G93 guys..... the 1G Eclipse works. My idle has finally stabilized 99 % of the time, guess the ECU took its time getting to know the TB.

RX-7 injectors, I am still playing with. Have not had time to put em in again, after the first attempt. I do have new o-rings and longer bolts for the fuel rail so when I get this done, I will let you all know.
