Goodbye Turtle, Hello Hare! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #6052 46 posts Started by Neipas09
Well thanks to much convos with Igotta5sfeturbo i've decided to buy an eclipse. I'm gonna try to shoot for a 98 GS-t with low miles if possible. But no matter what, it's gonna be turboed and it's gonna kick the sh!t outta my celi. If need be, i'm gonna sell my celi and leave everything in it, ie. intake, exhaust, blah blah blah. I don't really think this is news breaking info, but just heads up for whoever cares.
good luck with the crankwalk >smile.gif>
Dude, if you want a car that can be made to destroy all, get a VW or Audi with a 1.8t. It's the best tuner-friendly performance engine made today.(in my opinion)

>rolleyes.gif> DSMs... so cheap... so quick... so unoriginal. >rolleyes.gif>

Believer, you'll leave her, in leaving them allNo but I don't buy itLike anything you do, as anyone you areCause I'm...Ten Speed, of God's Blood & Burial
why waste your time with a gs-t?

if your gonna go with a DSM, go for an AWD DSM

I would have to agree, but I see all mitsu's as a waste of money, so... Just my opinion. I've had many friends with bad happenings...

damn no one likes them

but they would beat everyone that posted so far.

and for the crankwalk its only for people who cut corners and boost like mad.

every car has its problems.
Yall are just mad cause you know me and igotta are right!

I still love my celi, don't get me wrong. But i don't wanna spend $10k on my celi when i can spend $2-3k on an eclipse and get the same results.
soon to be my MR2 will have to have a talking with your dimond star nightmare >wink.gif>

why do that? if you have the money do the 3sgte swap. st185 or if you have more st205, and work on that. I think that would be a better bet then a dsm. IMHO
Im gonna be getting an eclipse as well...as for getting a turbo..i might just get a GS and get the Hahn Racecraft Kit..stage one is like 1.5 sec 1/4 mile quicker than gs-t...Stage 2 was like 2.5 sec quicker..or something like that..and as for crankwalk as far as ive heard it doesent really happen on the non turbo which is a different engine than the turbo..someone correct me if im wrong though...

in my opinion, the dsm looks alot better than the damn audi and vw's......

if you wanted a more luxuary car.....then fork out the extra money for the vw or audi.......but personally, i would get the dsm......as long as they were taken care of, you shouldn't have alot of problems out of it

If you want some speed just go for a Z. I swear half of the people at 300zxclub.com have owned DSMs before deciding that after they've made their mods that it just doesn't match a 300zx for preformance. They've even made many topics on the matter. It's quite weird.

Yea..I didnt think about it like that..ive found quite a few gs-t and what not but for the prices i can afford..the newest gs-t ive seen for like 5000 is a 96..and one 97 but im sure itll be sold by the time i get the money...but the newest GS/RS was a 99 for like 5500 i think...im still looking to get the gst or gsx but its just the problem of finding one

also i could build the NA motor up and then turbo it...

look on autotrader.com
before i got me celi, i was shopping for gst or gsx, both are pretty rare but gsx is more rare, you will atleast find a gst for sale somewhere

I will take on all with my rear-wheel drive twin turbo rotary powered RX7 Twin Turbo. It will desemate your eclipses. As you guys reach around 7k to shift on your DSM..I will be reaching 8.5k when I think about shifting. I win. lol. I guess if you're going for what everyone else has, get an Eclipse/Talon/Laser. Whatever floats your boat, just what floats my boat is having something you don't see all the time.
