My project car is a 99 Eclipse RS.

  AEM short ram
  DC headers
  OBX cat back.
I know that is not much but, I'm taking my time b/c I plan to rebuild the motor, so I want to make sure I pick the right parts so I get the most power out of it. I don't want to buy a part and find out later that it doesn't go with my set up. Plus I share it with my wife and I don't want her to have 2 much power. So I'm looking for my own toy that she won't want to drive. She can not drive stick....

Havent taken it to the track yet, but its taking out alot of Civics and Integras on the street. Usualy on the way to the dump. Smells bad though. I'm about to get some Yo Yo Dowg air freshener. Hoping to run mid 15s when I install the 200hp nitrous wet kit. Pics soon.

Man that LS1 must be broke. They make that much hp just about without forced induction.

When I get a new job with better pay I am going to do a serious build on an 89" 240sx Coupe from ground up.  I have the car, and the rims I want.  The first thing I am going to do between now and then is a Z32 brake and a 5 lug conversion.  Next I will work on stiffening the chasis and eventually do an engine swap.

evos suck man and that is coming from a chevy guy and your firebird, it sounds like it is crapy if it only puts out 350 HP from a LS1 with a super charger. that thing should be pushing a lot more

I've got my '90 240sx hb. no mods yet but I gotta have money before I can do anything.  I wanna do a 5 lug conversion and a brake up grade when I get the money. After that I don't know what.

Was this a NA-Turbo conversion or did they just replace the turbos that were there or did they do something extremely odd and go from single to twin turbos?  Best bang for buck on a supra is go single turbo....BIG single turbo (T67 or larger...maybe GT40 or GT42)

Nice car either way
