DSM black 2G sighting on peterson in Libertyville/Grayslake

robs90tsi · 12-01-2006, 07:03 AM

I saw a realll nice black 2G eclipse with a nice sized front mount yesterday, i was going east on peterson about to merge onto 137 when i saw it going west on peterson just coming off of 137, id really like to know who that was, that car was clean. I know im taking a shot in the dark but maybe just maybe someone knows him.

robs90tsi · 12-01-2006, 07:19 AM

Yes, yes i believe it did.

mr2turbo · 12-01-2006, 04:05 PM

nevermind, couldn't be who I was thinking of

Ya I know tons of cars like that but not close to here....More south than that

robs90tsi · 12-02-2006, 01:00 PM

Ive never seen that one before, it was a 2Gb eclipse.

I heard Jason has been rolling around again...Maybe you saw him and he did some changes to the car recently...?

robs90tsi · 12-03-2006, 10:52 AM

Has he?? I thought I saw him at the train station the other day, same car but with different rims though, maybe his snow tires, but no this wasnt jason, this was a 2Gb eclipse, with the big GSX wing.

mr2turbo · 12-03-2006, 11:11 AM

do you remember what the rims look like?

kraka · 12-03-2006, 01:29 PM

Interesting...The cars I was thinking of were wingless....I probably still know this guy tho ha

robs90tsi · 12-03-2006, 04:05 PM

No, i dont remeber what the rims looked like he was moving, and josh when did you go back to the track?? I see a 12.7 there now used to be a 13.5....you replace the clutch yet??

Slow99x · 12-03-2006, 04:57 PM

That is the route I take to work every day. There is another car just like mine but is not lowered and does not have H.I.D.s or a carbon fiber hood. I don't know who he or she is though.

robs90tsi · 12-03-2006, 05:23 PM

Wow i think that might have been you, but i dont remember any red decals on the windshield, you take peterson from 137 home? Thats when it was I saw it, around 4ish

Slow99x · 12-03-2006, 05:31 PM

That pic in my profile is over two years old and there are no windshield decal anymore. My rims are gunmetal 5 spokes and now I have gloss black 6 spoke. That old pic doesn't have a carbon hood or Sparco seats. Check out my gallery. Those pics were taken over the summer but before the hood was installed.

mr2turbo · 12-03-2006, 05:35 PM

also you run 15's now right?

Slow99x · 12-03-2006, 05:40 PM

Maybe in reverse! Don't hate Mike. Someday you can be fast too. Just don't get fired from your job for stupid things you didn't even do.

mr2turbo · 12-03-2006, 05:42 PM

well, we'll see this summer

Slow99x · 12-03-2006, 06:44 PM

Sorry. For some reason all my pics got deleted from the site. I just checked the gallery and they're gone.

robs90tsi · 12-03-2006, 08:16 PM

Huh maybe it was you then, nice car.

Bone stock 81,000 mile clutch....5000rpm studderbox, 8psi launches, 1.7 60's....Once again, stock factory clutch...

Not too shabby, eh? The 12.7 run I had to baby into 2nd gear b/c I was having issues with 2nd....My trap is pretty high I think...

I normally dont post my times on sites but I dont go on tuners enough and Street Racing talk is not allowed regardless so enjoy...Im in the 12's....Finally

Should be a 12.5 if I went back right now (minus the snow and that its closed)....I have my chipped eprom, 2g maf, battery relocation and some other little shit installed from last you heard....

With the clutch and cams, once I get around to them, I'll be bouncing around the low 12's for a while...Then comes the real fun when I can get rid of this ####y 16g for a real turbo

Hows your car treating ya Rob? Whats new? We should hang soon

Shes good, im still fighting my rough shifting issue, thats the one im really focusing on, because its just messing up my fun of driving, i have to baby it into every gear just so i dont grind, but im gonna go look for a 91+ shifter base + cables and swap mine out for those, I think that should do it for that issue.

I just need to get ahold of a 7cm gasket and 02 housing gasket and my turbo and 02 and SBR mani can go on finally.

Then i need to get my logger back up and running again, i swapped out the batteries in my palm and it deleted the logging program, gotta have ron re-upload it for me.

Then im just gonna be looking for injectors and an SAFC and I can start tuning, but that will probably either come for christmas or after, but i got my 190 fuel pump in so, its coming along, not to mention my car got to sit in the garage since thursday night just before the storm, hehe shes all nice and shiny still.

Im having logger problems as well...When my logger is on, my studderbox is engaged at all times...So in 3rd gear, my rev limit is 5k haha....Its a shocker lemme tell you....Its li
