Those Chrysler engines were actually Mitsubishi engines rebranded with a Chrysler value cover. Go with an Evo. Unless you don't care about that then go with a Honda motor.

Yes sir, the 4G63t was an amazingly capable engine. I've seen them making over 1000 wheel horsepower.

Takes me right back to my teens! Had a 97 TSI AWD and then traded that for a 99 Eclipse GSX. Wish I never got rid of ‘em! After the Need for speed/Fast & Furious era it’s getting so hard to find a nice stock example of these, especially the Talon’s.

I'm still finding them everywhere in central canada, I sold my mint condition 100k mile 92 talon awd in 2021.........seen it 3 months later with the passenger side caved in and the nice rare momo exhaust system hacked up and fart cannon added, was super disappointing. Means my 90k mile 2gb eclipse gsx, 98 tsi awd or my last 1g awd aren't being sold period even tho I've gott'n back into the supra game.

[@Brock_Landers]

I had one of these. It was a 1990 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD. The 4G63t engine was an amazing platform that's capable of some amazing power figures. I have built many of them, including one that I built and swapped into my 1992 Plymouth Colt hatchback. This Talon is what's known as a "1gb" meaning a 1st generation, second design. My 1990 had a different rear end.

[@fytghggyungf7601]

Wouldn’t this be a 1GA since it has pop-up headlights and not the 92-94 composite headlights?

besides center caps, the wheels are also distinctively missing lugnuts. and someone BETTER save this poor thing. 80's and 90's surviors are rare as hens teeth 'cause they usually get driven into the ground or were turned into "rolling radios"...and finding out that there's a surviving Eagle out there is jaw dropping enough.

[@rodmunch69]

On that flat paint... try using some transmission fluid. It's an old, very old, car show trick. Just wipe it on, and watch as it shines up like new. It will only last for a few days, at most, but it will give you a very good idea of what it would look like when it's repainted.

[@rodmunch69]

@Just Relaxing I was just a kid with no money and an old rusted crappy looking car and some old guy told me about it, and it worked remarkably well. It was also great in that it kept idiots from sitting on your car, since they'd get oil all over them. As I said it would generally last a few days - although I mainly used it when I was going on a date or going to show off since it shined up the car like it was brand new. Not sure how a used car salesman would pull this off since the coat would literally feel like it was coated in oil.

[@BFVgnr]

You can find 4g63T for from $2k to over $7k, depending on what you want to do with it. You should definitely take that back to factory config. It's really the only way.

[@robbalinski1606]

Fuck I can't sell any of my 4g63T's in perfect running condition with fresh timing jobs using $600 of oem parts for even $1500......

A Mitsubishi Eclipse engine is going to be your closest to an original engine for that model. An Evolution would be a good upgrade.

Hope you like doing lots and lots of welding to fit that engine in this car. It won't look very much like the original car when you're done. Good luck.

[@houseofno]

Just an FYI Eagle was Chrysler's captive import brand originally for former AMC's captive brand engineered products inherited from Chrysler's purchase of AMC in 1987. Eagle was also the brand for AMC's badge engineered Renault cars. This brand was largely phased out by the mid 90s. The Talon got a brief life as a badge engineered clone for the first and second generation Diamond Star Motors or DSM cars including the Mitsubishi Eclipse and first gen only Plymouth Laser.

[@smallbee1234]

I would hunt for the original engine for this vehicle. Not numbers matching but at least the engine that was engineered for this car will perform best when matched up to the transmission and frame it is meant to carry.

[@DangerDave4G63]

There is no number matching with these cars. It's not like the classic muscle cars.

[@Chad_Thundercock_]

I live an hour from them, and I actually have the parts to assemble an engine for this car, I have a few transfer cases as well, would just need to find a 90 AWD trans

[@elliottbutts153]

Looks like both of the passenger side wheels are backwards. Other words they should be on the drivers side of the car. Not to mention a lug nut or 2 might be missing. So the passenger side wheels were probably damaged then replaced with wheels that are directional and should be on the drivers side of the car.

[@vaultsoferowid]

All Eagle Talon rims are made the same. That means that the wheels on one side of the car will point one direction, while the wheels on the other side of the car will point the other direction. With that being said, these are not OEM rims. They are not the 1GA, 1GB, 2GA, or 2GB rims that came on any Talon. They closely resemble the 2GB rims while missing the center line strike-through on the wheel spoke.

[@btbd2785]

a trick to help get rust stains or of carpet is to use Lenons and some salt also use cold water I stead of hit water from a steamer. add lemon juice and 1-2 tsp of salt and use a tiwl. soak the towel in the mixture and the try and lightly scrub that area. If that doesn't work you can use a Rust stain remove like Rust Oleum Whink Rust Remover, or Iron Out rust stain remover

Ty for sharing, awesome work getting it back to standards ... I had couple of these ..... from the Talon's -- Black tsi awd 91, and a 92 + 93 gray once as well ...

The original engine with turbo would give 195 horsepower. Being a Mitsubishi engine, that's pretty good. However an engine from a Mitsubishi 3000gt would be even better. Up to you, but original engine type may make the car worth more?

[@daniellawson9302]

Talon and Laser all use the Eclipse body and the Mitsubishi engine. This car would have had the 2.0 liter DOHC and the turbocharger. It's a truly rare car and deserves to be saved. This engine stock had 200 HP. So, you don't have to use the "original" engine. A Mitsubishi engine of the same type will look, and perform, as well as the original. Minor upgrades to the cam and turbo will see significant increases in speed over stock. Love this car and hope the buyer sees it's worth.

Believe it or not, the eclipse (and the Plymouth Laser) were based on the Talon platform, powered by Mitsubishi (then owned by Chrysler-Jeep-Eagle). Even after the Eclipse and Laser were discontinued, they still made the Talon. These were the quickest cars on the road in the early 90's.

@@bellwethertrucking3650 That’s not accurate at all. First, Chrysler never owned Mitsubishi. These DSM’s were just a joint venture between Chrysler and Mitsubishi. The Talon was the second to get discontinued when Chrysler dropped the Eagle brand in 98. The Plymouth laser never made it to the 2nd gen design, it was discontinued after 94. After the Talon ended in 98, the Eclipse got two more generations on its own running up until 2012 when it was discontinued.
