New Car

Last weekend I picked up a 1998 Eclipse GSX. It needs a little work but I got a decent deal. The previous owner had no knowledge or taste when it comes to cars. My first plan is to get the car running right and start De-ricing it. Saturday Im picking up a 3" turbo back exhaust, FMIC, and stock GSX wheels. I also just ordered a bunch of tuneup parts for it. Like I said this weekend the muffler and wheels are gone so the car should look 100x better. Even with the cars problems I love the way it feels. Once I get this squared away and it the weather gets a little nicer I plan to get the Z tuned and running perfect. After that Im going to take some nice pictures and post it up on Ebay.

Let me know what you think

HAHA... No, I was using my parents camera and was having some trouble figuring out how to use the flash.

Yah, I liked the feeling of the 2G's a lot more. I wish I lived closer too, that way I could someone helping me get the car running right. lol And as long as it doesnt crank walk right away I'll be allset. This car has a 6 bolt in its near future
