Its not that easy...

BUT I got a new FMIC the other day along with some other parts on the way.

your thread doesnt have enough pics. isnt your car non-turbo right now? 4g64 FTL.

[blageo23]

Yes, I actually took out the original non turbo 2.4 and fabricated in a 420A. Its pretty bad ass

[Goat Blower]

I'm transplanting a Geo 3-cylinder into mine. I've heard good things.

[blageo23]

Well I got a good deal on the 420A. It already has worn rings and they said they had a custom valve job done, I believe they called it a bent valve job. pretty badass IMO!

I've actually been looking into swapping an NSX v6 into my Laser just so I can have Vtec and 2 extra cylinders.

Shouldn't be hard, custom axles, wiring, new mounts, etc.

I am taking out my motor and putting in an avenger motor because it has more cylinders and that means more power.

Alright here is my update:
Today I went to work on my car. I got the upper and lower IC pipes, intake, starter and slave cylinder out. I reached in the starter hole and wiggled the flywheel and its loose. So the good news is its probably just the Flywheel!!!
There is a big puddle under my car of oil. Looked around under the car and the oil return was leaking. The AN fitting came loose, and also my wastegate dump was loose. I dont know whats going on with my car but everything is loose :(.
Anyways, I got a few new parts. Here are some pics...

Im going to get the FP manifold coated and cleaned so it will look brand new. Thats all I have for now.

Alright, Here is the update that people are waiting for...
The flywheel was loose.
Why?
Well 2 bolts broke and 2 were loose.
Why?
On the crankshaft there is a piece in the middle for automatic cars, Well noone told me I have never even heard about this til today. So I left it in thinking it was part of the crankshaft. So the flywheel wasnt even seated on the crankshaft. So it acted like a spacer, and that is what snapped the bolts. Notice in the pics below the bolt have a section that looks nice, that was sitting inbetween the cank and the flywheel. the flywheel looked damaged but it was just chunks of the "ring" on the flywheel. Ground it down and now its all good!

I got the broken off bolt out! THANK GOD!!! So now all I have to do is get that "ring' out of the crankshaft and its all good.

Thank you to Chris and Kyle at MAP for helping me with my problem! I was all pissed until they told me I didnt need that "ring" on the crankshaft!
