So yeah, you all know what happened. Now what should I do with my Eclipse? Engine if first priority, but what next? And what about body work? Any suggestions? The Supra was white, but now I am going for a gunmeta/chrome look. Tell me all about your ideas! _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. This post was edited by Sared on Sep 04 2003 05:57am. |

When you say floor lights do you mean interior lighting or under-carriage lighting? _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. |

Actually, a wing on the back is a plan. I have also seen some weird fin things that you mount in front/below your headlights. Kinda funny if you look at it for a minute and wonder '......what is THAT for?' _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. |

Simply put, got into a wreck with a ditz, insurance said it was her fault so their paying for it, not me (although I DO have pity on the poor girl.) Guy I met at the shop offerd me about two thousand more for the car (a Toyota Supra that I had put a lot of wrench time into) than I had paid for it and I took it. So now that I have the time (and the money) I have started working on a 2002 Mitshubishi Eclipse that I bought for....well, it was cheap, and I still dont know why. I am halfway expecting to have the transmission fall out or something. In any case, last night was GREAT! Hooked up with the same guys downtown and I smoked every one of them. Even the phruit with the NOS-equipped Horizon . On the few good runs that I had I averaged about a 12.5-14 quarter mile. Pretty slow, but I should be running at LEAST mid-to low elevens by next week. _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. |

Standard on some GT or GTS models of most cars, you go back to '94 and earlier models and they almost never came as stock parts. Okies, I am now going to leave this message, pick up my keys, and go outside for a good night of riding. Cant wait to hook up with guys tonite. _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. |

Nice, did you mean cold-air induction or cold-air intake? I know a lot of people who confuse the two. So you got a site or two to get body kits? Nice! Post 'em already! So you got a V-8? What kinda hp are you grinding out of it? I have seen a few good body kits on Eclips's but I am going to hold off on the body work until I finish the engine. _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. |

Sared, very impressive  that should own the road. I am a proud owner of a 2000 mustang GT 4.6 V-8 Triple black w/ black leather interior. wootish i'd say. I have sub-frame connectors, steeda short throw shifter, Double hook clutch quadrant. There's more on the way, I plan on adding an x-pipe, cat-back exhaust, cold air induction, mod chip, pro-charger (long term)EDIT: I love supras, I originally wanted one but they are a bit expensive for me. U should get a body kit for ur car, I used to know a few good sites to get em from. _______________ Padawan of ShadowSith | Close JA Family: Darth Mobility, Katan, Jedi Prodigy, Virtue,D@rth M@ul, Virtue, Flash, Bandit, Yin Yang, JK-XIII, Faded, Silk Monkey, Skyler, `Orion, Aratan, SmilyKrazy, Faded Angel, and your mom | woot!

HAHAHAH! WOOOOOT! WHEEEEE!!!! And yes, my engine did come in today. Just got a call from the shop saying that it got in so they should have it in and ready to roll by this evening. Meaning that I will spend a few hours before/after diner adjusting the unavoidable screw-ups that the shop left for me before I go out tonite. For those that are wondering, its a DOHC Turbocharged V-8 that carries a nice 410 horses when you dont mess with it. After plugging in the performance parts that I had left over from the Supra then It should be running approximatley 440-495, borderline 500 when I am done with it. Next step? Replace all the heavy crap on the interior with some bucket seats. Then go slap the 19' rims from the Supra (since it came with Type-S wheels, rated up to 190 MPH) The seats should be in by Tuesday and the rims will be an easy twenty-minute job. If everything goes well then I will see where I will be able to go next by Friday! WOOT! _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid. This comment was edited by Sared on Sep 08 2003 10:04am. |

You said it silk. Actually, the V-8 I am dropping into it is an American made engine. I am buying the car for the looks, not the preformance, that I'll add later... Edit: P.S. The Supra that got banged up, the TOYOTA Supra, the IMPORT, the 'Rice Burner' as you call it was running a 50 hp shot 2-stage NOS system from Nitrous Express.  _______________ I'm crazy, not stupid.

Dude, I dislike Rice Rockets. I have no beef with people who accept imports for being economy cars. I can't stand huge wings and obnoxious muffler noises. I conned a ricer into putting his engine on "the juice (NOS)" and now he has a hole in his block. The moron. Theres a reason why I rarely drive my 1967 Mustang. Not so much the gas prices, but as Sared can attest: lousy drivers. _______________ |-HK-47 -SilkMonkey: You are receiving a warning for being_too_sexy.
