That looks to be in real good condition - was it ever re-painted?
And whats up with that strip of color on the bottom?

nope not repainted, thats stock color on that year. Durango Copper and the strip at the bottom designates it as a turbo model. guess I should have mentioned that up top.

that's awesome looking. how much did you pay for that. I have to say you've got some balls for flying down there to check out a car and then some more for driving that back. Way to go man. Get some more pics up.

I like it. I'm not a big fan of the 2ga look with a front mount but that looks nice with the grill still on there. I have/had a 2ga (switched with the 2gb transformation). How much did it cost?

dont hate me when you hear. i paid $3500 for it. I realize that i was taking a big risk but it runs fabulously (new head and rebuilt block) so it was something i had to do or else i would have regretted it. it was an experience i would never give up. granted it would have been much more fun with another person but it was still something i wouldnt give up. As for the 2Ga look, i normally don't like a 2Ga front bumper either but this color just does something for me that all other colors dont do for me. I was thinking about doing a 2Gb front bumper in this color but im not sure how it will look. As for more pics, once i go and get my 30D from my house i will get some more pics up. i hope everyone likes it as much as i do

I like it, What are your feelings on going from a convertible to a non-convertible?

thanks man. i saw in other threads that you were considering selling yours but i just couldnt wait that long to get a car as much as i would have liked to pick yours up. i dont have any doubt you'll find a good home for it. as for your choice in color on the evo. WHITE all the way. there are few color combinations that really make the blue work for me. but in the end its up to you, anyway thanks for all the compliments guys. oh and if anyone in west chester wants to do a photoshoot soon lemme know. i dont have my 30D at school with me so im lookin for someone else to take pictures. cheers.

Well I knew when i got the car that the ISC motor was gonna be replaced. I stumbled upon a new one in NC that I picked up for $20, never used. So I finally got around to installing it and now the car is being, well, retarded. I removed the tbody elbow and the battery to replace the motor. once removed and replaced, i buttoned everything back up and thats when the problems started. First the fans are on constantly at idle, secondly there was white smoke coming from under the dash on the passenger side that smelled like burning wire insulation. I dunno what the hell is wrong but im a lil scared to start it back up. Im not sure if I should just let it idle or what but this is the life of a DSM'er. someone help?!

yea its a rebuilt 7-bolt. i didnt check the ac switch. i'll check it now and edit in a few.
SUPER EDIT: After restarting and let sit at idle for a few seconds, the fans turned off, idle at a nice 900, and no hesitation at throttle. I just got a lil gun-shy earlier so i shut her down. she's ready to rock and roll now.

I looooooove that color. I was so tempted to find a 95 GSX in that color instead of getting white.

They say that you are going to need to put the car into diagnostics mode to get your idle right. I replaced my ISC (IAC) like 4 days ago and it doesn't surge anymore but the idle isn't perfect all the time. It's supposed to be 750rpm's and it goes up to 1000rpms once in a while. Let me know if your car is doing this.

yea i have to re-adjust the idle screw to get it down a bit but im pleased right now. after i get her washed and cleaned up i'll break out the 30D and get some nice pics.
TrboChicsRock: I think this is my favorite stock color for an eclipse/talon with the exception of maybe the dark maroon 2Gb talon and the dark red on the 2Gb talon. And i looked long and hard for a GSX in this color but i went with a GST instead. oh well! Thanks for the compliments everyone
