1st gen RS?

ok, I was looking at a 93 Eclipse RS 5-speed today for a winter/beater car b/c i might sell my 92 Probe LX b/c it would be sweet to have two DSMs, even though the Probe would be more reliable . The guy is asking $699 for it which i could probably get it for 550 or 600 out the door. there is one problem though...... it has 153,XXX miles on it! these engines dont last to much longer than that (normally) correct? also it has the 2.0 4g63 engine in it?? i thought the 1st gen RS came with the 1.8??
I could buy it and rebuild the Engine and put the 6 bolt in my 2gen and put the turbo from my 2gen on correct? or do do i have to upgrade internals for the turbo?? Should i go for it??

Thanks!
Steve

Re: 1st gen RS?

here is a link for pictures of it. I forgot to mention it has 17" Chrome wheels, i forget the brand though. I know the windshield says $999 but he recently lowered it to 699.

hehe, looks like it used to have a big ricer wing on it.

Looks good, if it ends up being a total lemon, you can sell the rims on ebay for about $300 and you can probably get $100 for it for parts

No... that motor will have a 7-bolt in it they stoped putting 6-bolts in half way through 92.
