The stickers have to stay, they keep the sponsors happy and that means free stuff for me

[black9d1tsiawd]

How in the fuc* did you get that thing sponsored? I know it aint fast cuz u still have the stock intake on. It doesnt look that good. There are like 20 cars on this site that have better looking faster cars. How did you get that thing sponsored?

Dont Hate Appreciate bro
nice looking car keep it up but im wondering the shift knob does it have the overdrive trigg ?

 

[DoubleDSM187]

My cousins car was sponsored and it was a big piece of crap, body kit wasn't installed right, crappy paint job, crappy interior job. The sponsors made his car worse than it was, a little faster yes, but it looked like hell. That car completely outdoes my cousins but I don't like the stickers and stuff.

 

[sids]

tkr, the mirrors, tailights and headlights came with the car. stock JDM pieces

the wheels and tires are free, the airfilter is free, the labor for fitting the kit is free, the paint is free, the big ass spoiler is free.

hey talon racer, right now its not anywhere fast among the fastest dsms here, but having a stock intake doesn't mean that its slow either. I got it sponsored because I don;t shoot of smart a$$ remarks like you.

about the website, hehe that's his bad, he's getting it overhauled this week after the show so its on the blink right now

 

[TalonRacer18]

Yea, but im wondering how you got it sponsored? Yea that stock intake is holding you back alot.

 

[sids]

I got lots of friends in the auto parts business like the wheel guy and bodykit guy. No need to replace the intake just yet, don't have enough power yet to warrant changing it.

 

[98RedGs]

Hey TalonRacer18 why are u bashing him for being sponsored?

Not all show cars are fast.... JUST SO YOU KNOW.


I think it looks nice bro keep up the good work.

 

[Hey-G]

I Love it!, not too keen on the momo steering wheel tho, and of course better if it was Manual but that car is hot. That's one bad ass color!

One question, are JDM headlights really different? Is it possible to clear the corners of the headlights like yours? I think it looks great!

 

[sids]

hehe, the steering wheel was a gift from my girl, that actually started the entire carbon fiber theme inside, pedals, rear view mirror, steering wheel, shifter strip.

yep, JDM lights are the same as yours, 95-96 lights, and they are clearable. The tail lights have the yellow corners and the folding mirrors.

color is actually from the BMW paint code book, was looking for wrx blue but the PPG code book didn;t have it

Still doing some shakedown tests, rattling parts, missing screws and other pieces not fitted correctly, typical of any repaint job.

Well I personally prefer automatics with our traffic here, top ten worst in the world. Besides thats what all the eclipses here are sold with

as for the sponsorsip, I do all the art work for my friend who brings in wheels from taiwan, from displays to brochures to logo design. I told him to pay me in wheels since I enjoy doing it anyway, as for the bodykit, i let my bodykit friend copy it so he can make some money from it by slapping it on a Honda, which he did and won best bodykit in the show

Same artwork deal with the shock absorber guy

and dont forget the fender blinkers we dont have them stock I got my through mitsu of japan

the fender blinkers are actualy for a 6th gen galant VR, its kinda lumpy compared to the stocker which is flat

 

[Ghettoraid]

"JDM" tails??? what the hell??

I didn't think japan even HAD eclipses of any sort... just the FTO and then the evo...

 

[sids]

yes they did, 1st gen and 2nd gen

 

[badboysean]

how much did the paint job cost?

 

[greyforestgst]

is that a progressive shift light i see between the tac and speedo?

thats ####ing awesome. mine is just on my steering column.

 

[Initial DSM]

How much was that Blitz FMIC?

 

[monkey_eclipse]

Nice lookin' car dude!

BTW, did you change the LEDs in your dash or do they come with blue LEDs in your part of the world? I'm sick of my amber look in my dash and on my corner lights... Plus, the blue dash lights would perfectly fit well with my Pioneer deck.

L8ER!

 

[sids]

okay time for some confessions,


the blitz intercooler is not from blitz but a custom piece, I painted blitz on it because of the body kit

its not a progressive shift light, but PRND12, its an auto

the gauges are from procarparts.com

hmm paint job cost me around $500

 

[badboysean]

For the blue? The whole base coat blue was only $500? Man where did ya get it at?
