just bought my wife a 3G eclipse GS

[HalfBaked]

Hahaha.

He curbs a wheel and insurance totals out his car.

[YokotaS13]

lol, i ended up paying almost 4,000 for wheels and tires, and they werent even really good tires, It was mainly shipping from japan, the extra 150 or so a wheel i paid for that color, the 50 a wheel for the red stripe, adn the 50 for hte hubcentric rings, and another 20 a wheel for centercaps.

[SilverJester]

tsispyder I love your old talon, spyder, eclipse (w/e you wanna call it). Yeah 3g are really not my thing at all, they look like space ships, & they are slow. But I guess if I were to choose one I would choose the one with the 4g64 and swap in a DOHC head and turbo it...but then your still fwd


AS for the caviler...wow. It's no wonder your wife doesn't want to mod her car...she doesn't want it to end up looking like that thing. Primer, shitty looking body kit, ugly ass molded lcd, stock wheels, cheap ass fog lights that probably cost you $10...oh yeah almost forgot it's a cavalier! My car is a work in progress too, but looks better and even in stock form it was faster than your piece.

[1439/2000]

What doesn't make sense is "I can't buy a gs-t because I have kids, a mortgage and blah blah blah"



YOU ARE STILL DROPPING MONEY THAT COULD BE SPEND OF YOUR FAMILY INTO YOUR PRIMERED TRASH CAN.

Doesn't make sense. I'm saying with the time and money put into that heap you could of had a stock gs-t.


Also:



Your car is slow and you never seemed to mention the sexyness and SPEED aspect of your car. Show a picture under the hood if its so goddamned fast.You just said you were broke so I know you dont have mods.

Also to clarify, guy who wants to run the "stock" 2g in his 3G eclipse. You'll lose. Look at your mods then think is it even worth embarrassing myself.


ALL 3G's ARE TURDS.GT,GS,GAY whatever trim level they are equally slow.EVEN TURBO ONES ARE SLOW, HAHN RACECRAFT SC'ed ones=balls slow. WHY WOULD YOU START WITH THAT CAR.

[COGCaviZ24]

ok just to clairify, I have a few HP mods, intake, upper and lower stiffened motor mounts, front and rear stiffened tranny mounts, headers, dual cat-back exhaust, pulleys. i know these dont equal up a great horsepower increase, but it is an increase.

family comes first, that's mostly why my car is in the state that it is.

you guys talk like an eclipse is a high dollar car. got news for ya, WRONG! I could understand if i was talking porche owners or something. or hell even lexus IS300 owners(yes, you dont' have to get started on that car). the cavalier is chevy's answer the honda civic, A FRECKIN CIVIC. Mistu just put in a little more horsepower in the eclipse to make it better than the civic. so yea, eclipse is mitsu's civic.

[B16a2 Civic]

Lol
imbosile is Jordan Lol

[1439/2000]

I know an eclipse isn't expensive thats why you could have bought one.

BUT the difference is an eclipse is available turbocharged while a civic and cavalier is not

And what a few mods an eclipse WILL BUST A PORSCHE and IS300's ASS.

That my friend is the difference.


I still dont understand the sexyness and speed comment when your car is neither sexy nor fast.

[B16a2 Civic]

Jordan, i thoguht you were TT'd?

[COGCaviZ24]

I still dont understand the sexyness and speed comment when your car is neither sexy nor fast.

that, is a matter of a opinion

[COGCaviZ24]

if i would have done the research, i would bought a turbo or sc car. I bought my car because, at the time I bought the first cavi I owned,I was in need of a car, it was cheap, well taken care of, and was clean. but it was a base model. so in feb. I came across a Z24, manual,same year as the base, for dirt. so I bought it 'cause it was easier than an engine,tranny swap on the base.

[1439/2000]

that, is a matter of a opinion

Ok sexyness is a matter opinion some people could argue that.

But speed. You can't deny that car is slow. It could be taken as a matter of opinion if we compared your car to lets say "A bicycle."

[COGCaviZ24]

no agrument there. my car is slow compared to some others

[1439/2000]

no agrument there. my car is slow compared to some others

Contradiction?

[YokotaS13]

BTW, an is300 with around 40,000 miles is only 15,000 or so
A low mileage turbo spyder is only 3-4 thousand shy of it nad 5 years older, remember that.

End of story is, quit saying your cavaqueer is cool, its not.
Dual exhaust belongs on a v8
Primer belongs on cars that will get painted.
You car is slow compared to a Goped.
Stop posting and digging yourself deeper, you have 3 very faithful DSMers, and your talking out of your ass


Oh and Mounts, and items arent HP mods, they are stiffness mods which help your launch
anything chevy newer besides an Impala SS, or corvette, is slow. Yes its true even your cavaqueer.
And to affirm my GVR4 friend up there, the porsche you could afford, real porsche owners would laigh at you, I was going to get a boxter s before i got my eclipse/talon, however i realized, buying a boxter is like buying a 3 series BMW or an E class mercedes, no reason to buy it since your only buying it for the name. Real ballas dont buy the lowest line car in the series.

But anyways, im done for right now, im sure i will think of more, come back and edit, simply becuase its fun making fun of primer cars that people think are cool. Hell i drove a car that looked like ass well not really though (the del slo), but it was because i got a cheap paint job, not because i did it myself.
But i knew it wasnt fast, but could outhandle anythign else ive ever had.

[1439/2000]

Ohh I got negative reputation for making fun of a 3g eclipse.

Thank you imbosile. I'll give you neg rep for buying that piece of shit.

[YokotaS13]

Bwahaha ill give you a +1 man

edit, gotta spread it first lol

[B16a2 Civic]

Bwahaha ill give you a +1 ma

edit, gotta spread it first lol

LolW +1 you "Ma"

[COGCaviZ24]

I've said repeatitly, MY CAR WILL BE PAINTED THIS SUMMER! my dad, uncle and I put our money together and bought a 30 X 40 x 14 shop(not the cheapo kind either), climent controled(not working at the moment), lift, concret floor,and a full paint booth about 2 years ago. yes it will get it painted this summer. so lay off the primer. I would never say that my car was finished when it just has primer it. that's a redneck paint job

[YokotaS13]

YOU dont do things to a car unless you can paint it right after. Car modding 101.....otherwise you are deffinately a ricer until you paint it, and in your blitzed kit case, forever

[COGCaviZ24]

ha, primer can be resprayed, sanded and resprayed. I want to wait to let the body work set. so if i do get a crack in the bodywork, which I'm confident it won't, I can fix it. i reinforce the fact that right nowmoney is a liitle tight. the paint i want is a high in price. how you like to see a car(painted) with a cracked molded rear bumper. that's nasty. I don't want my car looking like half the mexican mobiles around in my area.

[YokotaS13]

i think a molded rear bumper is stupid as shit anyways, But thats besides the point. THe fact is, dont do it unless you can finish it

[COGCaviZ24]

dude go to a school that teaches auto body and paint and say that. they will laugh in your face! only the front is blitz, sides and rear are drift. I can change the front....hey looky there a drift kit. I didn't get the drift front because it sits real low on a cavi. urithane or fiberglass, it's good to bottom out on either one

[YokotaS13]

its still a blitz front. And why would they laugh at me, if you take hte weeks to do the work, id paint it, so you dont look like a broke ass mother riding around in a stupid looking car like yours

[COGCaviZ24]

why in hell would you start something if you can't finish it. at some point, im sure, you were in the middle of a something and something came up, or you couldn't make a dead line.

[HalfBaked]

Even if the car was painted it'd still be ugly.

And 3rd gen eclipses are slow.

And I know you say family first.

So how about this...sell that piece so your family doesn't have to be seen in it.

[1439/2000]

Why do you "blitz" front end when you dont have Blitz parts, why are there "drift" sides when you can't drift a fwd car?

[HalfBaked]

why are there "drift" sides when you can't drift a fwd car?

:confused::confused:

You can't?!

FUCK! I EVEN BOUGHT AN SR20 TO DRIFT WITH!

[COGCaviZ24]

"drift" is a style of body kit

[1439/2000]

"drift" is a style of body kit

I know. They come from the janky pages in car magazines that real car people laugh at and ask "Who buys that cheap shit?".

[HalfBaked]

I'm pretty sure I said that yesterday.

"Who the hell actually wants to buy the 'Big Mouth Drift Cavalier' kit?"

Well this answered that question.

[COGCaviZ24]

didn't say i wanted the drift. I don't like it, too low

[1439/2000]

didn't say i wanted the drift. I don't like it, too low

No they are all ugly. Its not the fact they're low its the fact they're nasty looking.

Cheap...YES.

Well taken care of...NO

You should have left the car right where it was....OUT TO PASTURE.

[YokotaS13]
