Mod me PLZ

Well I want show and no go because well the Eclipse is just not fast without a turbo or nitrous. I dont have the money for a turbo so Im forced to show. Soon Ill be getting vertical doors also Im getting a random 500 bucks which Ill be throwing into my car. I was thinking Apexi NT catback exhaust. Here a few pics of my 99 Eclipse GS.

2g Eclipses are truly not the fastest in the world, yet unless you go and spend $200,000 plus on a car... someone will always be faster than you.

If you want to be at least quick in your ride so that you are not "no go" at all. Think air flow. A large part of performance is air flow. Get an intake and full exhaust system, and that should help a lot.... Also do the Bosch 4 point platnium spark plugs and some good sized wires. You can do all of this for around 500-600, if you shop at the right places. (i.e. ebay)

very nice bro. You should tint those windows to limo :oops: and if your not into racing slap some chrome rims on there. Chrome on black always looks bad ass.

I have tint but its the legal limit. I have an intake and muffler now( I figured Id do piping later if I wanted). The vertical doors Im not gonna get because...well...because..haha. I just ordered some X-2 fenders and soon a body kit. Bliz perhaps, even though everyone has it, no one has it around here so I think that will be fine. 8)

Any other suggestions with this new update I have for you all?

I would add:

New KYB shocks
Intrax lowering springs
AXIS Reverb rims in black
2.5" piping to your muffler
2.5" Header

And call it a day. The car will look great and turn heads without being ricey, added another 30hp or so and will handle better too. Skip the kit, at least the Blitz kit. Its really expensive, the knock off kits are cheaply made and the paint will cost you too much to do it right. Try what I listed and you'll be pretty damn happy.

Yeah I have Bomex Front and Blitz sides, had the front for about 7 months before I put it on and the sides for about 5. I'm picking up a Bomex Rear and I just purchased F1 Fenders. Both have yet to be installed and i'm losing sleep over visualizing it, and curious if I made the right decision or not...
