A 6 bolt DSM engine from a 1990 Eclipse GSX popped up at my local salvage yard, and I rushed out to get it, even in the cold and snow.

Haha, so your the one who took the engine out. I checked this car out on Sunday myself and manged to find my window switch in the snow, hope it works!!
Dang man 😳
Tom's Turbo Garage NEED MORE TOMS TURBO GARAGE CONTENT NOW!!!!!!!!!! Lol
“Since, ya know, the motor got dropped” totally deadpan. LOLOLOL!!! I feel your pain, brother. 🔧
Man that hurts to see an gsx in the junkyard
This was such a wild rollercoaster of emotions. Another 6 bolt goes to heaven. 😭
Hey Erik, I just gotta take my time to say thank you for the content, I was referencing your video for the dash removal. Finally found a junkyard that had one, was able to get it out, seats and steering wheel were out already and it made it a breeze with your walkthrough, it was a 92 eclipse N/A with an Eprommed ECU still in it. Now to put it in the talon!
You are a hard core maniac to do that in the freekin 🥶👍🏻
I would have still taken the motor and trans if they'd give a serious discount on it, say $100-150 for all. I'm sure the gear clusters are still good, that would be a 90 gearset, the strongest aside from Evo 3. Block and crank should still be good as well.
Insert Sarah mclachlan’s in the arms of an angel sound clip. 😢 R.I.P. 4G63
You are pulled from the wreckage....
Damn much props to you and in the snow. Your dsm looks soo clean
Man that was a steal !! Good condition 6 bolts are like finding diamonds. My heart sunk at the end that it got dropped. Hope you find another
I know this pain all too well. I spent like 2 hours helping a random dude from craigslist that lived 200 miles away pull a VR6 engine from a 2001 VW GTI, only for him to drop it from the engine hoist while loading it onto my trailer. it completely destroyed the oil pan. But he gave it to me for half the original price and it ended up running fine.
DUDEEE 😭 all these dsm videos make me miss my 98 talon tsi awd 😭 it was a 5 speed manual solid black i only paid 2400$ anf it was the most unmolested dsm ive ever seen
See this 3 times tbh I love watching ur videos during the cold days keep up
Thanks!
crazy DSM life
Crazy good find wish that happened more often around here! Keep up the great vids.
Great vid. I wish our salvage yards had 1g DSMs. It's been 4 years since they had a 1g.
My guy is a legend I've wanted to do this for a while
Ahaa I did exactly the same thing but with an genuine EJ22T. I had to do it in two sessions because it was snowing so hard that I could not see the bolts to take off anymore. So I pulled the intake manifold and got back home. I was crossing my fingers that no one would go and pull the engine during the week as they are pretty sought after I think. I got back to the junk yard the next week end and I was lucky enough to score the rest of the motor and it was a nice warm day! I was relieved because it was a 2H + drive from my home. Now I just have to find me a nice Beetle, an adapter plate and a Microsquirt!
Wow, that's lucky it was still there! I had to buy a whole car to get my EJ22T lol. Nice score!!
Damn and I thought that I was crazy. Brother you pulling that motor out in the middle of a snow storm is crazy. You sir are hard core devoted and dedicated
I miss my 1990 Eclipse GS-T, my favorite car ive owned
They should also pull the motor and have it ready for you.....
keep dreaming bud
what do you mean keep dreaming they just wasted 4 hours of his day lol and he couldn't do anything about it
it's a pick and pull style scrapper they dont usually do that, even tho they should cause they dropped it, prolly gotta pull the motor yourself. idk maybe its a really good company, we'll see lol. i wouldnt get my hopes up tho lol
Your Moms Fudge Packer Ya I know it's a self serve pick ur parts.. I'm just saying circumstances...
most yards will pull parts for you... and then charge you double.
Damn dude, sorry to see that happen after all that work. I admire your dedication. Pretty cool that the salvage yard is gonna do the right thing though. Good luck.
Make more content please. I just got into modding my 1990 Laser RS and watching your videos feeds the fire to work on my car. Cheers!
Working on it!
@@VelocityLabs what's the transmission code of it? Is it f5m31?
Awesome score, I'm happy for you. I wish I could find one for some backup parts. EDIT: Oh son of a..... that sucks....
Damm that sux bro, I'll that hard work for nothing. I would still go back and pull off all those parts like the front and back bumpers,engine harness, fenders, corner lights ,tail lights, fog lights . There is still alot of stuff there,great video.
The whole time you were loading your tools I was wondering were the bug ass hammer was lol
Seems like me and you are as crazy as each other about cars. This video reminded me that time I was pulling a motor in a rainy cold storm.
You know, this guy is teaching me that I am a really big wuss. I just scored a $1200 92 tsi awd. Running and driving with even a few mods. I go out and see it’s leaking coolant from the radiator and I wanted to give up on the car already. The guy even offered to give me a new radiator lol. How do you have so much patience for these cars? I think I’ve just done this so many times that I’m worn out on building yet another one from scratch.
Love the video, great job vloging for us and explaining the process. Sorry about what happened
You're my hero. There has been ZERO 1Gs in local Pittsburgh junkyards since I started searching when I got mine in 2014. It's annoying
oh shit another coloradoan cartuber! subscribed, I have been thinking of getting into dsm stuff.
Wow, I would be livid!!
I get those husky tool bags from homeless despot, great for carrying nearly everything to the yard with 2 hands, (until you grab a wheel barrow.)
So many parts that I want!!
Holy crap man. That's hardcore!
I'm jelly I've been trying to find a 91 gsx for the longest time
I use to have a red and black 93.. nothing but problems with that thing back in the day lol. But hey to each their own.
I would be livid!
That’s an open motor with all that snow ❄️ can you say pitting in cylinder wall
Please post more I love your videos man
2:50 "...a good night's sleep, dreaming of electric sheep, and 4g63's". Does that engine have a name? I suggest "Philip K", in honor of that quote. (Update after seeing the sad ending.) Nooooo! Poor Philip.
Damn! That sucks. All that time and effort in the freakin cold. Wow
What a let down, but that's mighty decent of them to put dibs on the next DSM with a 6 bolt for you
Man good stuff. I want the three piece taillights
Foocken jackpot!
Never mind😢
Every time an eclipse/talon is at a pick n pull near me, they're always sent to salvage within days, all I need is a 1g dashboard man. Seeing that one in perfect condition made me tear up. Nice job for not losing your shit when it dropped, I would've, especially laying in the snow for 4+ hours. I'd give you my motor if I didn't need it, it's a stock 4g63 in a talon TSi with only 150k on it.
My friend who passed away had a fue of those cars one he did a hole wide body on and one that was super fast he could go through all gears while the ebreak was up doing a burn out and it really put me in the seat I was going to get a eagle talen off him it was auto but it would really move especially when you would break boost it both tires would spin and smoke of rubber filled the air those were some fun times
Wish cars would come to junk yards around here and stay for more than 3 days. My car has never had the trunk cover parcel shelf thing in it. Been lookin for one for years. Evry time I get a chance to look at a car everything I need is gone. I live in utah by the way. Good find bro, you have some serious luck on your side man. Damn.... just got to the end... Can't believe they dropped it.
It sounds like you and I have the same kind of luck. Should probably go back and snatch those front 1ga lights and lenses they're like gold
Great job
Awesome vid
Good god...that's my type of luck there. My condolences man.
bittersweet tale, if this happened to me I'd at least have grabbed the half-shaft, I doubt it got messed up, I hope they get another gsx for you, hopefully in the future.
Nice find!!
And the factory radio ! Wow
Lmfao “Ha, I said strap on” 😂😂😂
The chances of finding another 1g GSX at a junkyard with a complete 4G63 is slim to none, you would have better luck hearing a cricket fart in China. That was a rare find.
I think it was the trans crack.lol jk
But away, your beast boy. Storm rolled in and you kept going👍
I've pulled out engines in the mud. I would've helped you out with it.
But it's nice to hear about what they offered though
damn! that sucks! Thanks for making this a video man that was amazing.
Are you looking for another one? I know where an entire engine is, with the transmission. Very good price on it, as well.
You my friend are a bigger man than I. If this had happened to me, which is very likely bcuz this is just my luck, but i would've thrown a full on Adult Fit! Like a Baby that dropped his bottle!
Its not really bcuz the guy dropped it, but more or less bcuz you put in 4hrs of your time pulling that Bad boy..IN THE SNOW!!! Thats like $400 in labor in the Auto/Mechanic world. Not to mention they just Tanked a Diamond in the Ruff. I bet that Block & Head was a Beauty!
Wow... I mean, Just WOW. I cant get over that shit. Talk about a Nightmare!
Evol_AF that's what I'm saying, like I paid for it you just dropped MY motor and trans you aren't giving me $416 back for it. That's what it was worth to you, not what it was worth to me. Price changes the second ownership changes. Happens every where else, buy a new car and ask for your money back 3 seconds later. They will knock $3000 off for depreciation and then hand you a check.
Emery Booker Yes! Finally someone who sees it like I do. This guy was all chipper and worry free haha Im not pulling an engine in the snow for nothing. For all they knew, he was pulling it for someone that already paid him $1k and could've spent some of it on tools or w/e... But like I said, he's a bigger man than me... At least a nicer more forgiving man than me LoL
I would have stripped everything from that poor car down to the frame. Rare to find a non wrecked 1g eclipse GSX.
Edit: Sweet pillow!!! Would've taken that home for sure!!!
lolz I would of just taken the whole car but I admire your dedication.
Set the countdown till the engine blows up again
Hey!! I have a '90 with a locked up engine. Just let me have it, please.
Brutal dude! Too bad they didn't comp the engine at least.
Oh, my, god!!!! That is fucked!!!! They should have just offered for you to take it for free. It would have been fine you coulda fixed it man. Wow I can’t believe you did that in the snow! You’re a better man then me...
Oh man, I almost shed a year seeing that. What a let down. Your a patient guy, I'd be pissed.
Damn that sucks dude, at least you'll get first crack at the next one.
DC2Juice yeah the next perfect gsx to go to that exact yard. Probably be 3-5 years and that guy won't work there no more.
So unfortunate. I would've asked for a huge discount on it. Worth the gamble.
Hopefully another enthusiast was able to save it.
I have both of the tool boxes you have, lol
I imagine if you get hit taking something of in that cold weather 😫😱😭
Hope you have lots of money to blow man. I'm into my 6bolt for 30k and its still not done. Could have bought a Cosworth 4G63 from Britain and had it shipped here for less. Grats on the find though, that's pretty sweet!
MAN... that interior dash!!!
Shawn Huetter I know! It was so clean I wanted it so bad 😭😭 i just picked one up today for $70 not in nearly as good condition
That is why I always do important stuff myself. That forklift driver isn't out any money for dropping YOUR property. At that point you owed that motor and trans and I would of billed them for all the repairs or cost to replace it right then. Company's have insurance for stuff like that. Either that or they shouldn't of been loading it if they don't. Had a rental tool place drop something in the bed of my truck right where the tail gate folded and snapped both leaf Springs and the tail gate off my truck and they paid every bit of the cost to repair my truck including paying me $20 hr (my standard wage at work at the time it happened) to pull the Springs and tail gate from a self pull and pay and to put all the parts on my truck. I mean everything down to the wire got my mig welder that I used to weld the torn metal on the bed where the tail gate attached and pivoted. Came out $800 ish cheaper then the estimate at the local garage first said that the tool rental had me take it to. They would for sure be at least paying me for the 4 hrs I spent pulling the motor and trans out. You were way too nice in that situation and I understand accidents happen and can over look stuff really easily but that's not just a refund me the money and oh well my loss situation. What if he would of damaged your car by not being careful with the forklift, you would say well that is my property so you need to pay for it right? Well that motor and trans was yours too. Sorry for your loss bud that was a great score almost.
dope channel
I literally screamed when you said the trans cracked
Tudds check out my channel would appreciate it
I'm at 12 minutes now on the video and he still hasn't taken out the engine.
That pick n pull should just pull the motor for u, unless u prefer to do it urself. Hope they keep their word
I need the wheels and side molding!
Drop it like it's....cold? Hahah dude that completely blows. Though thoroughly entertaining!
BWhahahaha XD
Running it on nitrous and the boost leak happend . Thay started to wonder why it was warming up .
Nice
18:00 i wouldve lost it after all that, try to think positive if the only mod was a temp gauge it was probably prone to overheating, still hate to see it scrapped tho
You sir are crazy and a true car guy. we can be friends.
Damn I wish you could of pulled that stock shift knob. I've been dying trying to locate one
I would be so pissed, damn that sucks.
Wow that is a brutal end to a morning worth of work, sorry man!
Did you at least get the door handles and the sparkplugs?
Sad seeing a good DSM in the junkyard
Need. More. Videos. Lol
Orange sticker in the door jam it's an LSD car!
Tim Beck My 1990 Talon has this. What is the purpose of a limited slip differential?
Jonathon Petersen if one wheel starts spinning the diff locks and both wheels get power and spin. when it locks it's basically like welded differential
BMW life 203 Don't people use welded diffs for drift cars? Would this perform similarly? That's not my intention, I'm just gathering as much info before I jump into restoring my car. Scouring the dsm forums and whatever else I can.
Jonathon Petersen exactly. when the lsd locks it's the same as a drift car. both wheels will spin in a burn out
BMW life 203 Nice! Appreciate the info man. Hopefully one day my dsm will get running.
I didn't pull and install in snow but it was cold lime it was snowing redoing my truck
Worth a shot! But i see you like eclipse. I have one, a 3rd gen (yeah yeah yeah) but u like most mine is becoming a monster AWD boosted machine!! If you could check it out and tell me what you think that would be amazing!!!.
Wonder if you went to the same junkyard as kyle🤔
Holy crap, what's up my long hair brethern.
Was gonna you ballz to pull it during snow but having long hair does indeed keep you warm.
I now what you mean about 4g63's are hard to find the 420a is same. I've found a cool score once complete set of gst five star wheels. It was pretty funny as was walking out with about 10 people were pissed that snagged them plus free clear corners, also found mud flaps.
I laughed like dr evil while loading them up.
Pro, tip for anyone pulling engines.
You should always turn the engine over by hand at the crank before pulling it. This will let know if the engine is locked up.
If that U-Pull yard doesn't call you try Miller Imports, Steve might work with you on shipping costs maybe. I don't but I have scored a 2g door from him do the size & weight shipping wasn't bad. Just food for thought As alternatived but is best to get one locally & in person.
Better take that tcase, 90's are specific.
The hatch cover!!!
Do you have any idea how to install a tubal timer on 94 Mitsubishi eclipse turbo
I would have been devastated lol
