That's an awesome job! I really like the flames and skulls. I can't wait to see the outcome. Keep us posted!
 
Its your car, but i could never drive that around or be caught sitting inside it. Sorry, just not my taste
 
dude it is beautiful....but you gotta remember the guys around here are all about performance till you get to Mizuntastood....but hwere the hell is he LOL
 
Paint job is awesome man. Good luck with that. Hope you got a good deal. Looks pretty expensive.
 
Damn that is crazy, I cant imagine how much that cost, who is doign the interior glass work, are you paying for it or you doing it yourself
 
yup the car is a definate show car. thats way too much for a daily driver LOL. i drive a 1g awd sleeper for a daily driver. the car is show and go as well. the motor has the following done to it:

t3/t4 turbo 50 trim .63ar stage 3 wheels
turbonetics manifold
tial 35mm wastegate with custom dump tube
custom built o2 housing
custom built 3" downpipe
custom test pipe
custom 3" mandrel bent exhaust with megan racing muffler
custom built fmic 24x12x3 garret core with hand fab'd endtanks
custom 2.5" piping from turbo to throttle body
turbo xs h34 racing bov
turbo xs boost controller
walbro 255lph pump
720cc injectors
dsm link
4 guage fuel pump rewire :)
custom 3" intake tube
k&n style intake filter
200lbs+ weight reductions
act 2600# clutch

the motor will be pulled shortly to be built up and cleaned up. i also plan to add some more preformance parts to the engine including some nitrous.

a friend of mine owns smooth customs, a custom paint shop located in central mn. i own the custom shop right next to smooth customs that does custom suspensions and import performance. we worked out a trade so that we bagged his truck and hooked up some coilover shocks and body kit for his other car in trade for the paint. i also did alot of the body work and fiberglassing on the car. he informed me that the job on my car was worth $7000.

we are doing pretty much all of the interior fiberglass work, he will be painting everything to match. the plans are for a crazy fiberglass custom dash with 3 dimensional skulls and skeletons coming out of the dash holding flat screen tvs. also i want to do away with the factory guage cluster and run all autometer lunar guages. the back will have a crazy stereo system with more skeletons, probley some motorized amp racks and more flat screens. i'm still looking for more ideas for the interior, i want it to be so sick that people drop their jaws and drool all over the place (including myself LOL) thanks for the comments guys!
 
dude that is pimp but it kind of looks like there is to much going on in the paint job with all the small stuff. that might take away if you are making it a show car. i have seen show cars that have a horrible paint job beat ones with a perfect paint job. but hey it's your car so good luck anyways

And I'm not meaning it in the "cool looking way".

Words cannot describe the atrocity.

Do you ever have anything nice to say? I've never seen you say ANYTHING worth listening to. F'ing troll.... BTW, I'm glad to hear it's a show car. The street isn't worthy of that!
 
I just gotta say that if that thing ever pulled up next to me on the street, I think I would cry:) If Satan ever comes to Earth...that's what he'll drive. A big :thumb: from me.
 
no its not a lowrider. the car still has the performance and handling of a true dsm. in the end, the car will end up weighing the same as a stock 2g awd (we are doing alot of weight reductions to make up for the stereo which will not be big anyways) the suspension has already been gone through with kyb shocks and lowering springs. i pretty much wanted to deviate from the "cookie cutter" 2g eclipse image. not that there is anything wrong with that, but if you want to get attention at a show or track you need to be different and creative. we need a show car to represent our shop at all of the car shows locally and a dsm with a kit, rims and a mild motor build just isn't cutting it. thanks again for the comments guys, good and bad :)
