Default Well...I joined the dark side...

After lots of car shopping after I crashed my Mustang, I ended up with a
















1999 Eclipse GSX.... I know. I will add it is completely built with a GT35R and only 55k miles on it. Put down 422 on the dyno, I'm buying the few things needed for corn so should be 500, but still....what can I say

Completely agree. I shouldn't piss in someone else's Cheerios. Sorry about that. Enjoy your car.

Default Well...I joined the dark side...

Eclipses can look sick of done up right, and the AWD models can be quick. Time to race Nic and find out.

My Talon TSI was awesome, when it ran. Trans issues, crank walk, etc. Loved the way it looked, but never again.

That's the same story of every DSM owner I've ever known over the years. They are fun when they run, but they break...a lot.
