Hey you guys. I have been signed up for a few months but I have not posted anything. I was wanting to be more active now that I have time. ( no job going back to school) I drive a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST. Stock for right now. I blew the engine so I am replacing it.

This is what it looked like about 6 months ago. Since she has been down with the blown engine I thought about re doing some things. I am re painting her gloss black redone the interior to all black instead of the half and half junk. I am waiting to get her re painted then I am going to take some more pictures of her. Does anyone have adjustable cam gears and some aftermarket cams?

Welcome to the site, man. Check out GADSM.org. A lot of local DSM'ers with a lot of knowledge. Not sure how much you know about the dsm either, but check out VFAQ.com. Enjoy the site. I just sold my 1g GSX.

You should get a 97-99 front bumper. The one you have is a 95

I think Ive seen this car around Gwinnett, wondering why it had 2ga bumpers with the high rise wing. I had a barcelona red 98 GST, I miss it. Ive owned 4 or 5 DSM's. Fun cars, but they will make sure you know how to work on them, I promise you that. Sucks about the motor. Please tell me you are replacing it with a 6 bolt?

Welcome. You should look into making one of these while the motor is out.
