Im just wondering what you would get if you HAD to buy a car, and only had 15k to spend.No money can be used for mods.heres my list so far...1996 3000gt vr4 97-99 gsx 93 rx7 tt 91 300zx ttHelp my list out.... curious what you can come up with...

Well...I have owned 4 eclipses. 1g -3g <Wife drives the 3g> I had REALLY HIGH hopes for this new model. I am sadly .. sadly disappointed. Mitsubishi is NOT in touch with its target market. Who is Mitsubishi targeting? They should be targeting the mainstream younger drivers. People who WANT...

Bye.I got a Movie with my car.. so i guess i did ok.

Im sure you think you are clever.. but aqua man called.. and he said .. DAYUM !!

some more pics.. im gonna make ya a vw fan now.. Youre Gettin .. Sleepy... sooo.. sleepy.. now you love vw.. soooo sleepy... :)

Well.. For all of you that know me, or have bashed me.. I will not be in the forums any longer. Many of you have made fun of my car, or made fun of my ideas. Its a shame. I put a lot of time effort and money into creating something special. Something unique. I sold my car to a film company...

btw.. I have driven and im buying an srt4 in the next day or two. I think that car hits. I mean.. it really really hits when you get on it. But then again i m driving a gs. im getting the factory stage II with 7 miles on the car.. so im quite excited.. im selling my car if you want it btw...

@ least this thread no one is being a d.i.c.k thanks for not bashing the thread. every other thread ppl wanna be jackasses.

explain to me how you think the mitsu will give a go At the srt. the srt is 2600 lbs, and it has 30 more hp as well as 45 more tq? Im not playin devils advocate, and as you can see i am a dsm fan, but man.. the numbers are staggering for a car of this price.

Hey guys..Have you guys raced any srt-4's?

I dont mean to sound like a trader to the dsm community, But i have found an 04 srt-4 with 7 miles on it for 20,400. I have driven this car, and man.. its hits..Comments?

i dunno about you guys.. but i havent seen any used srt-4s for sales.. its hard enough to get a new one!!

ok..I have 20k. Actually 18k. but can swing 20k.I am looking for the fastest car 99 and up that i can get for the money that i have. Any ideas? It CANNOT be added to. Meaning, buy a 10000 dollar car, and buy 10000 in parts. I have financing from lending tree, and i HAVE to buy 99...

My wife and i drove a 2004 6 speed tiburon last weekend.. its a sharp lil car man. it has this speed sensing turning something or other that is friggin awesome!! They were offering fully loaded gt v6 6 spd. leather, 19k out the door.. nice car for a hyundai.

You guys got it all wrong..im saying 15k for car only.NO PARTS!! NO Upgrades..!!!

this is me and a bud waiting to go back up, horsin around.

Heres a kool pic for ya... this is the multi function display, in the cockpit. The ball on top >The E.T. looking thing gives us images like this... <Yes... its a real photo, not doctored!>

Nice to see someone else t in Aviation! I am finishing flight school right now for army aviation.. I fly the 0h-58d <Kiowa Warrior>

is it cheaper if you arent changing the color of paint? for ex. if i wanted to stay with red?

some people just have to push the envelope dont they.

personally.. its a decent car.. but its for my wife.. yanno? i have my 2g that i roll in.

unfortunately, it was only recently that i learned about the new mitsu resale value :(

yeah. thatd be the wifes car.. 03 gt.

the car retailed for 24900 brand new. 0 miles. i got 1000 off msrp. plus 1000 cash back and zero financing. The car is now worth 12,100 with 9000 miles. YES IT DOES DEPRECIATE THAT FAST. Thus this thread. Also I am not talking retail. I am talking what a dealer will pay for the car. Not...

do you guys meet regularly? If so.. I am stationed up at ft. rucker... only 1 hour away.. I would like to come see whats going on if you have info..

hooray for some common sense!

thats nice and all.. but its crappy to have a car depreciate so badly in 6 months. id be willing to bet people wouldnt buy them if they knew how much they are losing in such a short time.

this my wife and I

Heres a pic of me @ the office.. instrument flying in the army... <yes.. theres a copilot on the controls next to me>

what is so hard to believe that she drives a 3g? its parked next to my car in the pic. When your wife wants something, its best in life to get it for her.

holy cocka!! thats a REALLY long time... I am gonna research this chromoly powdercoating the other guy was posting.

heres my ass

i know apc doesnt make the greatest seats, but I think they are friggin comfortable as hell.. heres a pic of them in my car. Plus, they have lumbar support!

heres my favorite:D

i think it looks cool! did you lose any reception with it?

do you know of any companies that you can send your parts to?

dood.. You couldnt have said anything more true. NEVER AGAIN.

I have had 3 eclipses, and one 3000gt. I have stood by Mitsubishi, and liked their cars. I bought my wife a 2003 gt eclipse a few months ago. Paid about 23k out the door. Anyway, I just found out that car is only worth 12,100. How in the hell is this possible? how does a car depreciate on...

I was wondering if you guys know a good place that i could ship some engine parts, etc. to get chromed? I am not familiar with how this whole process works, prices, or turn around times. I would like to start getting my engine bay cleaned up tho. Any suggestions would be great!

Anyway.. My buddy is selling me his stock EVO intercooler for REALLY cheap.. like 175. I saw that hahn has a manifold and 16g kit for like 699... anyway, how could i be certain that the evo will work for my turbo upgrade? <I know theres other crap that i need, but these are the major parts.>...

Does anyone know what exactly could be expected if I bolted on a new Venom intake manifold, and fuel rail? I keep looking @ it.. and it is the most beautiful piece i could see sitting in my engine bay!!! All Chrome... its friggin beeeautiful!! But.. what would be expected if bolted on?

i can tell after looking at that modded engine, and clean engine bay :thumb:

dood shut the #### up noob. you have dont nothing to improve your car, or place your own look into it other than a coupla footpegs and a race knob. dont bash unless you have the goods to back up being a ####.

http://www.turbo-kits.com/eclipse_turbo_kits.htmlAnyone know much about these people? I am looking into kits finally. Some feedback plz?

I forgot to mention.... I HIGHLY suggest replacing the valve cover gaskets. I bought a set from a local auto store for 18bux. My old ones were original, and leakage was evident. I also noticed oil in my plugs, and this will solve that problem. So, if you do it, replace the gaskets!!

i used a little black and decker mouse sander. I used more of an abrasive paper, as there were a lot of swirl marks in the lettering. As for the paint, I did not use a high temperature paint. My experience with high temp paints leads me to believe that its difficult to get a high shine out...

another side.. i think the flash distorts the image.. but you get the idea.
