Hey guys, thought I'd get your input in here about this.I've got a bit of a dilemma... I have a YouTube channel, and I honestly really enjoy making videos and posting them. I started my channel to document what I did to my 1999 Eclipse, and hopefully help out other new DSMers. However, I...

I can't believe nobody's brought up Mazda yet...A simple, cheap, reliable, but fun daily driver would be a Mazda3 hatchback for me. I used to drive a newer AWD one, very first year of the 4th gens, and it was awesome! Mazda has always tried to pack more niceties into their cars, while also...

I personally like the 2G Talon back-end and the 2GB Eclipse front-end... maybe I should just get a Talon and throw an Eclipse front bumper on it 😂And I personally love duck tails... that's why I got one on mine:

Guys, we all know that cars, buying and building, is an emotional thing. If we all bought and built cars in a perfectly logical manner, there wouldn't be 80% of the absolutely insane and beautiful engine swaps out there.Unfortunately, I have no experience swapping engines, so I can't really...

If anyone wants a "backbone stock" Tsi AWD, there's one for sale in Spokane Valley. Lots of miles though.I was kinda tempted... but I'll stick to my GS-T for now. Hope this helps someone!

I love Biology! I'm in Biology 270 in college right now (even though I'm studying Computer Science LOL)The things our bodies (and consequentially, our immune systems) encounter everyday are toxic. However, in most instances our bodies are fully capable of handling them. Our bodies are amazing...

No, we can not rely on the justice system to teach people to be better. That is a decision made on their own. Some go to jail, humble up, and come out great... others, the opposite happens.In the end, this is not an issue that can be solved with jail time, tough sentences, or even stricter...

Hey, if burnouts are your thing, that’s awesome! Sorry about your transmission though lol I don’t really have any traditions, I just kinda do whatever, then go to sleep when I normally do, wake up just before midnight, do the countdown, then go back to bed haha not super exciting I know, but at...

Sorry it took me a while to respond. Here are some better shots:Not everyone's favorite look, but it's definitely unique. I'll be rockin' this look for a while I think.

Thoughts and prayers out to you and your daughter man. It may have been a turtle, but often times it’s the child’s world, ya know?We had a turtle once. A snapping turtle that my dad picked up when it was trying to cross the road... that thing ate everything... After all you guys have been...

He just got a new engine actually cuz the last one took a crap... I wonder if this is why...

Dude, I've got a friend with a Kia Forte hatch with the 2.4 and he and I have been looking for mod options. There's some out there, but nothing as extensive as other platforms. Don't think we'll ever have the money (or guts lol) to do an evo swap, but that is possibly one of the coolest things...

Yeah, a gun is not gonna drop in value like a car. If anything, it's a better future investment. But I understand that you want to build your car at the same time. I'd take the gun though. If you like it, awesome. If not, sell it and THEN get car parts lol

jdxnc, that color is gorgeous!!Took this pic this morning. Just got the car detailed and put some stickers on :)

Kinda sucks to hear all this. I really like STM. They’ve always shipped things over really quickly and have had descent prices too. I haven’t tried ordering anything during the pandemic tho... I hope they figure this out.

I'd go with your gut man, it rarely lies... just gotta figure out if it's your gut or just the rush of the moment. First thing I saw was if it got a 6 bolt swap, why did it need a head rebuild? Was the rebuild before or after the swap? I'm not the most experienced DSMer, but that's what came to...

I’d do this. I ordered the fog light bezels and they didn’t need local pickup. Good luck man, you’ll figure this out :)

I've never run across that before, and I've ordered a few things from them. What part are you trying to order?

That looks AWESOME!!!

Car is looking SHARP! And I agree. The front splitter struts (I guess I have my own name for em as well lol) are not my favorite look, I like the clean look without them.

Boom, Carbonetics duckbill. I still need to paint it tho XD

Yeah, I think it's just a cf version of the stock bumper (just the lower piece). Definitely would go with the carbonetics diffuser.

I got a gas cap cover and fog lamp covers from them and they came quickly and looked good! I'd recommend them, especially since not too many carbon fiber businesses support DSMs that much anymore. Evolving_sti I can't wait to see those parts on your car!

I'm with Cherry, an eco friendly performance car would be cool. If they want eco friendly cars, please make some of them fun! Better to have eco friendly sports cars than none at all... but I don't think the market for sports cars will die anytime soon. Knock on wood.

I agree with this. There has to be a middle ground. Whether or not the electric vehicle takes over the market, I want to at least be able to drive a gasoline car if I want. Washington state (where I live) just got rid of emissions testing because supposedly the air is clean enough to not need to...

Sorry, this is an old thread, but Carbonetics sells a widebody kit for the 2G, and I sent a message asking if they can just make the duckbill spoiler. I don't know if that's the style everyone else is looking for, but that's the style I've been looking for for a long time. Hopefully they can...
