Yeah well times are changing. i'm looking to buy a used car under 10k. i just was wondering what you guys think of a 1995-1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST, GSX (comes in hatchback, and convert) i was thinking from a performance stand-point that they have much better structure than my ST will ever have + i dont feel like swapping a 3S.
-------------------- the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.

AHAHAHAHA i love it! the newer GSt and GSX have the crap motors but better compression ratios and exhaust manifolds. so if you get the newer one find a 1st gen 4g63t motor use the crank, rods, block from it. with the pistons from the 2nd gen (will take custom work). then use the 2nd gen mani. and get a big 16g with fuel upgrades and a front mount. Of course the obvious of a metal HG, ARP head studs, Centerforce DF clutch, new t-belt, tensioner, and water pump. other than that i think your set oh and make sure u buy that biiiig toolset at sears with the 20 some drawers or whatever -------------------- 94' ST Coupe - 5sfe Motor swap and brake swap.
