- Background
- Got this car as a freshman in high school as my first car, told my dad i was looking for a tuner car and gave him a list of cars I wouldn't mind owning. Few months go by and he surprised me this, my 1997 eclipse rs. It was automatic and bone stock. He fixed what few little things was wrong with it and made it look really good. Kept it stock for about a year then starting doing things to it before I bought my GS-T. This car has been sitting for over a year now with no engine or trans. Purchased a lower mileage motor and everything to swap to 5 spd. Also bought many handling mods for the car to build it for autocross.
