I agree, I'd have to take mine too.

But, if I absolutely HAD to......I'd prob take the green one. At least it's been on TV.

In all honesty, I think the Fast and Furious Eclipse is a work of art. I love the lime green with the blue eagle decal. It's a damn fine looking car. Not many cars are gonna come close to that. I think it's the second best looking car featured in either of the movies...with the Skyline being number one of course. I'm ashamed to admit that seeing it made me want and Eclipse even more. Your car is very nice but yeah it needs to be lowered a tad and you should get the turbo wing. Then you'll look set.



Can I vote for your Eclipse? I dig the silver with those clear tails :thumb:

Very clean, very effective.

I do give you props for even risking your car to being compared to the FnF eclipse.

YOur car = nice car, I love the color scheme, the under hood paint job is nice, I hate carbon fiber hoods though, ruin the flow - overall your car is smooth looking and flows nice. I don't like the graphics on the side, they are a little to small, but some kind of graphic would be nice. I also thing the stock Turbo wing would look great on it. Other than that your car is really nice. - that's all my opinion.

FnF car - Wow! overall really sweet, nice color, nice mods, love the roof scoop, and you all know how nice the engine bay is with that sweet turboed 420a. Interior is immaculate as well. It is not a car I would compare any of ours to since they spent over $50,000 in just mods, interior, and exterior. I wish I had that money. I do hate aluminum wings, and the blue side graphics wouldn't be my choice, but hey - it worked for them.

so FnF car is way supreme, but then again we don't have money trees in our back yards

they had that car up here at a car show - what a piece! it has drum brakes in the back with rotors glued on, the interior looks like it was put together by a four year-old, just crappy.

I had been thinking 'wow, a cool eclipse i can look at - instead of all these hondas', but no - a dissapointing "fast and furiously horrible" eclipse.
 
Get rid of the vinyl and give it a drop. Also the red color scheme is too dramatic. Lighten it up a bit and you got a winner. The F&F car has an aluminum spoiler so I won't even comment on that. I think your car looks good with a body kit and no spoiler. Don't wanna do too much.
 
blitz front looks good, but im sick and tired of it.

wingless looks real good.

graphics need to go.

cf hood would be pimp.

it needs to be lowered.

and was it a red car that just got a macco-like/pimp my ride silver spraying? looks to me that way, red engine bay, red door jams, underneatht he hood is red.

in all honestly, your car is nothing special, it does look decent, but the FnF car beats your BY FAR, because it was in a movie, that in reality, did very well. sure the FnF eclipse isnt anything great either, but it is pretty much world known and has been copied MANY times. so there you go.

good work though :thumb:

whatever man, I seen no justice in dressing up your (a) neon in an eclipses body.
thats essentialy what it is. dont get my wrong N/T's have the looks but thats only half of it.

no bi*** his car is (a) eclipse. thats what mitsubishi says and u dont know more than mitsubishi do ya. and i would prefer his car over yours ANYDAY. u have no right to talk like that about his car like that. anyway back to my point......turbo dsm=jackass. no other car owners act like that about their cars. only dsm owners. i have a 1993 twin turbo 300zx and i would never say some stupid shit like that to the owner of a non turbo z. u can check any other car fourms only dsm owners act like that.

maybe he is upset because his car is over 10 years old :shhh:

it might have been good if it was 10 years old but its not its 14 years old
 
I fully respect 2g nt, and im not "turbo consumed" I have no problem saying that TrueEclipses car is nice, without a doubt it is, BuT i can say I would rather have mine because 1g style apeals more to ME But see I have a problem, The problem is that when I step on the gas I like my car todo something we call accelerate and actually make an attemp at going fast, You on the other hand would have no idea what im talking about.

But hey theres 2 kinds of people, those who like to have their car look fast and those who have a fast car. I am not an asshole, im telling it how it is

If you have a N/T thats running asfast as a turbo then I give it no less respect just cause its an N/T I would give it more. :|


N/T's are ganging up on me, i need a GSX to back me up :p

It doesn't matter. You WERE being a jackass. He wasn't asking "DO U THINK MY KAR IS TEH SUX KUZ IT DUSNT HAV TERBOU!?!?!?!111oenone". Some of us like this thing more than accelerating, it's called maturity.
 
This is getting retarded. The silver car is nice, the F&F car is nicer. If 49er had all of the cash that they had for the F&F project, his would be equally impressive. To sit here and insult him for having a n/t car is just stupid and off topic. Really all this is turning into is a turbo/non turbo debate that will net a closed thread. 4geze, I would help you out bro, but you kinda started it...LOL ;)

hmmm. u think because i have a nt eclipse i dont know what acceleration is? well ill race u anyday with my TWIN TURBO 300zx. and by the way i can say ur car aint good unless it has TWO turbos. but i dont say that because i respect everyone and i know what people go trough to get their cars. people work hard for their cars and they dont need some jackass like u talking about it because its not turbo charged.

Turbo or not, The 2nd gen is a beautiful car. Who cares if the car has a turbo or not! It's still a nice car, People that dont know these cars like them because of they're looks not because 'that car that just passed made a weird pssh noise'. I agree, I worked very hard to get my car working and try to make it look respectable and I would not like it if someone started to say bad things about it, It would get me mad too.

Lose the Vinyl and get a drop. Then ur car would be very clean.

Edit: im not digging the painted interior either :barf:
 
Just cause its twin turbo doesnt mean shit, Testing my car out @ 21 psi it so happens I raced a 300 TT from a slow roll, his car was stock other then intake and exhaust and I walked him hardcore.

well ill race u anyday with my TWIN TURBO 300zx. and by the way i can say ur car aint good unless it has TWO turbos.

twin turbo isnt anything spectacular, alot of guys with TT supras swap out the TT for a single larger one. The fastest year for the TT 300 was 1993 with a 13.8, very respectable stock, so unless you can shave another second off that time your ass would be done on the highway.

I say we drive hundreds of miles and meet for that race :p


p.s 300xz owns
 
guys, we all own dsm's here, turbo or nt=doesent matter. were all obviously here because we love these cars no matter what engine or year it is. :dsm: :laser: :talon: :thumb:
 
Good Point. We all wouldnt be on this forum if we didnt have a dsm. Some people prefer to go for looks insted of speed. Myself (SPEED)! Hey but the car does need lowered and everything else looks good. P.S. DONT PUT A HUGE WING ON IT. we dont need downforce. its front wheel drive. :talon: ESI 2 TSI
