Well, I have yet to purchase the 98 Eclipse GS-T but am very eager to do so. Just need to know if it may be the right buy. Was hoping to maybe get some feedback, unfortunately this is the only photo I have for it. Is there anything I need to specifically look out for. It did well for its compression test and haven't noticed any leaks. I havent felt ticking or knocking on the test drive and didn't stutter on start up or going into boost. The owner also stated in the ad for upgrades it has "a 1g BOV, DSM link, some upgrades to the internals. Full catback exhaust, 16g turbo with external wastegate- I just replaced the wires and spark plugs along with a new alternator with a lifetime warranty". What scares me is he also stated it was a rebuilt motor with 192k miles on body and 'about' 70k on motor. He did state that it started to stutter when it hit below 30° outside for him and said it hasn't happened again since it got that cold. Let me know what I need to watch, look, listen for. I really want this to work out and cant wait to possibly be an active member in this Community. Thanks for any future advise or help!
