I bought a 1999 Eclipse GSX the other day. It has:

-JDM 6-Bolt Swap
-Injen Chrome Intake
-Chrome Manifold with a T3/T4
-Red Powerder Coated Vavle Cover with Chrome Spark Plug Cover
-Chrome Sheet Metal Intake Manifold
-Black Housing Blue Ion Projector Headlights
-Custom Vented Hood
-Front Mount IC
-Some type of Side Skirts
-Custom Silver Metallic Paint Job with roof painted Gloss Black
-18" Black Rims with Chrome Lip
-Wing Removed
-Sparco Red Seats

Here are some pics. For some reason my camara doesn't take pictures real well up close. And I don't know how to fix that. Oh well.

nice man.. wat kind of model is that?

diecast? the one u build? and what size scale? i want a 1:18 size scale 97-99 GST/GSX (STOCK NO BODYKIT) diecast model.. like those nice ones made by AutoArt.. too bad they dont make em

 

[marcmsj]

is that the world's largest pen next to it?

This what it is. The one you paint and build your self. Found it at Hobby Lobby for $12.99. I just had to have it. I havn't built one of these since like Junior High. I felt weired when I bought it. The cashier chick was pretty hot. I felt like a goof. Wow...A 19 year old guy buying a car model...............Oh well it's badass

It has a choice of 3 Front Bumpers, 2 Rear bumpers, and 3 sets of Rims, and 2 hoods. Pretty cool model if you ask me. I actually sat down and thought about how I want to build it. I was going to make it just like my car. Green with black top. But I found this silver metallic paint in my garage. Then I ran out and didn't get to paint the rear bumper

Nice little project for a sunday. Just don't let your g/f or friends know that your sitting in your basement putting together a car model

Does anybody know where i can get a stock model
like a 1:18 scale
i want like a
97 silver gsx everything stock on it can some 1 please help me out

 

[BacknBlack92ESi]

I don't believe they make any. There are alot of manufacture's of Die-Cast Models. I have yet to see a 2G DSM one before.

This was the first time I have seen a 1:25 Scale Model that you can build of a 2G Eclipse or any DSM in that matter. That is why I picked it up.

Something funny. I just relalized that the Front Bumper of my "Custom Built Eclipse" kind of resembles the 2Ga Talon front.

Dude, im buy em all the time, just bought a 240sx the other night, its funny how the cashier always says arent those fir little kids? I just say, what do you think i am?

Right now im in the process of looking for a 1:16th scale so i can swap it onto my xmod, if any of you havent heard of an xmox, check them out, they are so technical for such a little rc car its amazing, 50$ at radio shack

I'm guessing you have that super street also... that issue is great, it has like every single aftermarket part... or at least almost all of them as for the eclipse... looks good

terrible mod list.

 

[BacknBlack92ESi]

terrible mod list.

I hope you know it was a big joke. How can I go into any detail when the damn thing is plastic? I was just making up things off the top of my head.

Got anything else to say about my "terrible mod list" or my model

 

[KlipzSpyderGST]

No sunroof? Awww man.

 

[Defiant]

Most of the 2G diecast are F&F stuff with that oozing-bile-duct green and a piece of 707 on the back. I've still not found a Talon. I think the only stock model is the Modifiers series.

 

[chuckdog_5]

thought i would just jumpstart this old thread. anyone have luck finding any of the models your looking for? im still looking for the 1ga talons.......cant find em now

 

[BacknBlack92ESi]

Wow, old thread. I dont even own a DSM anymore.

But I still have the model sitting on my desk collecting dust

 

[1gcrazy]

No sunroof? Awww man.

It's lighter...

 

[negativezero27]

did a guy post a picture of his model eclipse that had an ls1 in it?

 

[DMS-WhiteGSX]

I have a red and a white XConcept Modifier series. THey both are stock bodied. Pretty neat cars, my Mom found them and bought them for me. I just want an 04 STi now in WRB to complete my collection.
