just bought my wife a 3G eclipse GS

[Julio]

That car is ugly.

[YokotaS13]

bwahahahaha Even julio agrees

[1439/2000]

That car is ugly.

I mean hey. Its universally ugly.

[DeutscheBAG!]

Lol ok ok speaking of under construction you should bury it at a construction site.



It's dropped like a wrecking ball man.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAA

[SilverJester]

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.

Did you just compare an eclipse to a civic?!?! What is wrong with you...did you know the when DSMs came out they could beat the same year vettes up to about 60mph? Does that make the vette chevy's answer to a civis as well? Civic was made as a cheap fuel economic car, the eclipse is a sports coupe. So you have an intake, headers, and a dual exhuast cat-back?? Now a) if your gonna do an exhuast then do the whole thing, it's a bottle neck theory, cat-back alone won't do shit and b) Why the fuck do you need dual exhuast on your 4banger? think your pushin out that much air that you need 2 pipes? You could have used the money spent on the dual cat-back, for ONE FULL exhuast system...or maybe for the family you talk so much about.

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.

Well it's not well taken care of anymore.

[COGCaviZ24]

the exhaust kit was on the car when I bought it

[COGCaviZ24]

Cheap...YES.

Well taken care of...NO

Clean...HELL NO.






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

why try to insult my car when you don't know me. that's not what the car looked when i bought it. that's a in process picture. the compnay had some shipping issues with fedex so i didn't have my side skirts. Im tired of of difending myself to you guys. this is all a matter of opinion. "opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one". it's the assholes that think their opinion is law that this world a shitty place. I tryed to be the bigger man and apologize.

[COGCaviZ24]

im proud of my car, and do not regret anything i've done to it. isn't that what the sport compact scene all about? that and love, and apperiation for other and thier cars?

it may compact but the is certainly no "sport" in that

[B16a2 Civic]

hmm

[1439/2000]

Laugh out loud at this thread.

[Brut]

your car is a work in progress.. i wont say shit about your car until you finsh it

[YokotaS13]

bwahaha i will

How long has it been primer? if its over 2 weeks, its rice

[Greddypacked]

Back on topic, anyways hit this site up www.club3g.com you can learn anything about the 3G eclipse. These cars can do low 11sec quarters w/ the right set up, and can look damn good.

I would like to see a good looking 3g and a low 11 sec one please.

[Greddypacked]

The server must be down, but i will be happy to show you here shortly.

[HalfBaked]

Good excuse!

That forum must suck as much as rb20 powered 240s and 3g eclipses!

[Greddypacked]

[SilverJester]

I can believe it with a 2.4 dohc turbo'd engine...well ok the looks part is subjective, I don't like the way 3g's look.

[SleepingTalon]

I fully understand and can see where you're coming from on the 3G Eclipse lacking something to be desired, but what exactly is so shitty about an RB20'd 240...? Unless you're just kiddin'...I cant really tell online though...hehe.

The motor is junk, they have a crappy power band, they are like 20 years old. I mean hell it is a 2 litre inline 6... Plus whenever someone mentions something shitty 240 kids expect me to mention the rb20 so now I just pretty much say it for shits and giggles.

[SleepingTalon]

Hmm...interesting. I tuned one a few weeks back that made 350whp on 17psi on pump gas...It has a hell of a powerband, and infact, I'd put it up against most of the SR's Ive done. I guess time will tell how durable the motor is with a good tune. Im tuning another RB at Batlground on Tuesday, this time an RB25, so Im gonna overlay the graphs and see how they compare with similair setups. Should be interesting...

[YokotaS13]

3gs suck, a fast 3g is like a fast honda. How many hondas are in the 11s for real, even less 3gs.

How many DSMs are in the 11s.....i lost count 4 years ago

[Tracy]

hey guys! I have a DSM

[dazn]

ROFLMAO
BWAHAHAHAHAHHA

is that a picture of Dan? he looks hilarious in that pic. ahahahahaha
dats funnier than the drift atlanta/seth green pic.

[Greddypacked]

The 3G GT/GTS models come w/ a 6g/72 that has 210 stock horsepower. You hook up a SDS Ripp supercharge kit, a Ripp header, twin throttlebody manifold kit, cams, forged pistons,rods etc..., you can have over 400whp. The turbocharged 3G's can get over 330whp easily. The style of the Eclipse is not to shabby, but w/ all of the aftermarket kits availabe it's easy to the looks just as good.

LOL! I know! He'll be mad when he sees it. It was from Dmitriy's wedding that we went to last night.

but for the price you buy a GT/GTS, you can get an AWD with decent mileage, the money you put in your SC and ll that jazz, a dsm will have 400+

you cant compare

Ok ok ok 3gs are ugly. I mean no matter what you do to a 1990 Plymouth Acclaim its still ugly. Ever heard of can't polish a turd? Same concept.

Forged pistons and rods and have over 400 with a supercharged boat that weighs 7000 pounds doesnt sound like fast to me.

With slicks on the front and probably stripped out you'd run 11's.

With the previous dsm's you slap a big turbo on and (with all wheel drive) can run 11's with street tires. I'm just saying they dont compare at all.

[B16a2 Civic]

so were back on subject

[imbosile]

And 3rd gen eclipses are slow.

its so funny how you think they are SO SLOW OMFGZ....just stfu already, you guys come on here talking about these integras and hatches and talking about how fast they are. give me a break, i would easily keep up with them, so just stfu plz, its getting old.

Are you serious?

I don't talk about civic hatches or integras.

If you want to see how slow your car is I'd be more then happy to let you see how much slower it is then a sentra.

When did any of us talk about civics and integras being fast?

I have a Galant and I can show you how slow a 3g is.

[imbosile]

im not saying my car is a speed demon, i am just saying its deffinately enough power to get up and move i dont see why you guys cant understand that. Yea the car is 3050 pounds (only aboud 150 over an RSX), but its not like it is the slowest car ever. And as for the styling goes, I don't think mine looks all that bad....

3G weighs right in at around 3200lbs +. The forged pistons and rods are there obviously for stronger internals under boost and higher horse power not really for gains. SDS Vortech supercharger kit, Ripp header, cams, double throttle body (holley) upgraded manifold kit, 3" piping catback etc... is what brings alot of that extra air for horsepower that just adds to the 210 horses that was already on the platform. Gutting out the car helps but that's not what gives it all the horses, but you can drop alot of extra weight. Where does 7000lbs come in ? The 3G can do 11's w/ street tires on a pair of Volks w/ this setup. I have hardly heard of 3G's running slicks on those boards but some do. Looks category well, i have heard loads of people talking about how schweet they look.

[imbosile]

no they dont, GT's are 3050 lbs...Proof

Worst post ever. Images everywhere and you obviously can't pick up on sarcasm. You are bad at the internet in general.

210 hp v6 fwd vs 200 hp 2.0 awd. Stock for stock the 3g gets owned. Then put the same boltons on each other and it gets worse.

Show me a 3g with Volks on street tires run an 11. Street tires are not radials either.

[1439/2000]

Besides, what do you guys drive that you could back up anything? Do you guys have fast 3g's or something? Bring them out if you do.

[imbosile]

well, 205 ft lbs of torque also.... what is the 2.0, like 150 or so?

[HalfBaked]

My car has street tires.
