Too much paint in my opinion. You are painting anything and everything it seems, I would slow down on that and leave some thing stock color wise. Get a nice set of wheels because those stock wheels are just ugly, I am not seeing a wing, which is a good thing, leave it wingless. Front bumper looks sick, but those headlights are terrible, you need to get yourself a new stock set and leave them alone! Hood looks ok, seems like there is a lot going on, on top of that hood but it doesn't look half bad on the car. Oh and I must be missing something, you say you have header"s", but I only see one? ;)

haha the MR is just a badge "Mitsubishi Racing". I've seen a few other Mitsubishi cars with them and liked the look. I had aftermarket headlights but I hit a deer and had to put my stock ones back in. I guess it's just old for me to say "header" haha but touche.

Haha I just like being a dick, so don't mind the things I say too much. But I would definitely get some new stock headlights, get a nice set of wheels, and drop the car 2 inches or so.

Yea coils are on my list of mods but I'm going to put that thousand toward the turbo first. Hopefully it works out this winter. I can take off the tint on the headlights if I want its not too hard. As for the rims I'm going to wait until I need new tires and buy a package deal.

Yea the turbo that they test fitted for the lancer that has the same engine as mine was putting down 250 whp. The GT eclipse puts down about 230 whp. I believe that was at 8 psi. I know the stock engine is capable of handling 300 whp but thats on nitrous so it's not constantly running at that. We'll see how much it will put down but it will deff be faster than a stock GT. Whether its my car or another eclipse that goes in to get this kit tested on it they are going to dyno it. From what I heard they are only going to sell it at 8 psi but the kit is capable of running 12 psi. I deff wouldn't go that high I'd explode my motor.

Welcome. I don't get why people who own Eclipses do the 'evo' mod. It doesn't look right on this style eclipse IMO.

Other then the headlight covers/tint i like the way it turned out. I'm not sure if you were at East coast MOD a few weeks back but there was a bunch of these there. Some of them looked alright from a distance but once checking them out I pretty much realized everyone is trying way to hard with these.

Whats the evo mod? If you are referring to the blacked out front then it's because some of the 09+ eclipses have it done. Yea it was probably from the evo at first but thats the reasoning. The front of the new eclipses look better with some sort of lip. I want to buy the Aero kit for the fangs. I don't like how rounded the front end is.
No I didn't go to MOD I'm up at school and have too much work. I know a few of the ppl that went down to it and your right there are a lot of eclipses that don't look very good up close. A lot of them plasti-dip the front and I think it looks pretty bad. Cool on a drive-by but once you stop you can tell its not very nice. Last edited by Dienasty; 10-26-2011 at 05:48 PM. |

Yea I would like to but I don't know how long the turbo will be out for so I want to jump on it. Unfortunately there is not much aftermarket support for the 4g. Even if I buy it and hold onto it until I get some coilovers that would be fine.

See how the Lancer GTS doesn't come with it. That's the EVO mod. The EVO X's come like that, and people who own Lancers/RalliArt's do that to their cars.

Ah okk I see. I guess I just never heard it referred to it like that. I like it. Apparently Mitsubishi likes it too since they started producing the eclipse like that from 09 on. Even though the car is no longer in production.
