smoked new eclipse gt hey guys! i raced a new eclipse GT, he even had a 4 sec advantage on me and i still killed him!@ |
You must have raced the slowest car in the world ;) Either that or he wasn't racing. |
That Talon must have been parked.:D |
Some thing tells me that you are lying. i have an LG4 like you, and i dont think that i could and i did alot of "bolt-ons" |
The new Eclipses are horribly slow, but a four second head start is still a lot. |
What year eclipse was it? THe newer one with V6 Seem pretty damn quick to me |
no they're dogs. the only ones worth even talking about is the awd turbo eclipse ( i forget the model designation) other than that they're nothing to worry about. |
Well i guess it just depends on our definition of fast. I saw one at the track running consistent 15.2's. Thats not real fast but for what it is i guess its all right |
Originally posted by phoenix305.the only ones worth even talking about is the awd turbo eclipse ( i forget the model designation) Pretty impressive, nonetheless. |
yea.. i head new elcipses are pretty slow, i wasnt all that impressed, but i also heard they run 15.1 stock |
yep and an lg4 runs 16s:thumbsup: |
i think its alot quicker then 16s.. ill have to take it to the track, or get a G-Tech. |
what do you have for performance upgrades? |

well lets see.. first off, i think they replaced the engine with a truck engine, so itl have more torque, and i got a Summit racing Phenolic carb spacer, and a Accel Hi-Output super coil, to give me fire all the way up to 8,000 which will never happen, but it sounds nice, and i just bolted on a Edelbrock Performer Intake two days ago. But it seems pretty fast to me.. accelerates nice! |
Originally posted by fly89gta. LOL@15.2's being quick.... By the way, why in the world would you be parting out an 89-TTA? You better have a valid explanation for this one, Mr.! ;) :) Edit: A-ha, I see says the blind man. It was just a GTA model to begin with.... :thumbsup: |
lol, anyways.. im thinking about doing a LS1 swap, but i think itl be a little expensive, but it sure would be nice. prolly abot 5 grand. Usually you can find a LS1 and a T56 for about 2800-3200, plus all the custum parts you woudl need, prolly around 5 grand, but man that would be nice!!! |
LOL@15.2's being quick.... |
Originally posted by del91_305 Yea well thats quicker than any stock LO3 or LB9 auto. |
That's not saying much |
Originally posted by del91_305 Im sure its not to someone who drives an LS1, but were not all that fortunate Sucks I know :( |
well.. all i know is my car is pretty quick for a 500 dollar car. |
very true....got mine for 1600 ........stolen recovered! |
Mine is quick for....well....damn I hate car payments :lol: |
yea.. sure u car can be newer and a lil faster, but no car payments. Pretty soon ill be running with ya! |
hope that wasnt directed towards me.... just dropped 7500 under the hood! |
naw.. it was to MR. LS1, what did ya put under your hood? |
fully forged short block, Afr 210 cc heads, Holley stealth ram,and a whole bunch of other goodies. 500 hp (street car):burnout: |
Originally posted by camaroracer016 naw.. it was to MR. LS1, what did ya put under your hood? Also, I wasn't bragging or anything...I was more or less taking a shot at myself for having a car payment.... |
thats cool. sounds nice. i take it its a 350? How do ya like that stealth ram? |
hell i would do it myself but, might as well just get somethin that can beat up yur LS1 for a lot less cash! |
im just messin with ya man... im actally thinkin of doin a LS1 swap! |
besides, i think 3rd gens are the best looking camaros. maybe ill grow to like the newer ones. |
oh uh no its a 383. It looks tough as hell. havent got the engine back yet so not too sure on that. I gotta hog out the plenum anyways. The 210s are a little big for it. |
Originally posted by camaroracer016 besides, i think 3rd gens are the best looking camaros. maybe ill grow to like the newer ones. I want another thirdgen and it WILL eventually be LSx powered :) Good luck with the swap, I think you'd be building one of the ultimate thirdgens :) |
Originally posted by camaroracer016 besides, i think 3rd gens are the best looking camaros. maybe ill grow to like the newer ones. |
Originally posted by fly89gta I still say 3rdgens outclass 4thgens. I think they look better, handle better and have more personality. The deciding factor for me was the LS1, hands down. |
yea i really like 3rd gens. yea i think it would be a baddd car... but i dont really have the cash to do it :mad: but im just gonna have to do it step by step. Well im gonna go to sleep, and dream of my LS1 powered camaro.. nite guys! |

I personaly drove a 2004 Eclipse GT Spider.....the pickup was outragously slow compaired to my Camaro....you floor it and you just wait for the damn pull....now sure it picks up but id take the G's in my camaro over that Eclipse any day. |
