Not to be mean, but in short, sell the car and get a gsx/tsi awd. You have the non turbo front wheel drive model, which isn't gonna hit 12s without a ton of money dumped into it.

You could do a search of all the faq's on this forum and alot of questions will be answered. Welcome to AF!

You will never hit 12's on a N/T eclipse. I say that in about a 99.999% confidence.

With basic mods, you could probably hit about 200 hp without turboing it, which might get you low 15's and probably a 7 sec. 0-60.

Look elsewhere if you want real power, like a GST/GSX/TSI.

It is possible to hit 12s in a n/t eclipse, and yes it will take a lot of money. If you are looking to make a fast car with not a lot of money put into it, then it would be better to get a car that is already turbo. But basicly you will have to build the whole motor, and add a big turbo and all the supporting mods.

its not the money its the fact that i wanna buy it and drop it in fast i wanna make it fast quick instead of saving for a month... if i have to ill buy a new 4G63T no problem but being the fact its not awd how hard is it to convert and what other motors are better

If money is not an issue just buy a 99 gsx from somewhere and have them ship it to you.

Please use proper grammar. Yes, it's a web forum, but even if you had a decent question, I wouldn't try to answer it if I have to read it 10 times to figure out what you're asking.

Once you add the big turbo you are no longer N/T.

As for his question, don't bother buying it if you are planning on swapping motors. You will be wasting your money. If you have so much money, buy an Evo.

i don't know if this is true. i herd somwhere u can put the srt motor in the 420a eclipse since the 420a is a dodge motor. has anybody else herd this or know its true?

I understood that, but you talked about adding a huge turbo. Thus making it no longer a N/T. Yes, if you turbo it and build up the engine (wasting a lot of money you could have used on a car more ready to be built up), you could essentially have a fast and powerful car.
