Posted by 95 Mitsu, Apr-29-03 09:36 PM
Just thougth I'd post a pic of my car and kinda introduce myself. I've posted a few times, but never introduced myself. I'm Brian, 20/M fron Indiana. I have a 95 GS. Yea, its slow...oh well. I'm just trying to make it look nice from a broke college student budget. Here it is for now. I'll prob change quite a bit this summer..we'll see.

For those of you that like it, thanks. For those that dont, oh well...its not your car. Anyway, all the yellow is kind of a temporary thing until I can get it all painted. I'm not sure what color I'm going to go, but it'll be different.

This is the wing I have on there. Like I said, the yellow is just temporary. Sorry if this link is huge.

Welcome. Are you gonna change your bumper too? I've seen a few people try to pull off the projectors on 95/96 bumpers. But it just doesnt work IMO. Car is cool, but not my style.

I swear someone could post a pic of a pile of dog shit on here with a mitsu emblem and SOMEONE would call it clean and say it looks good. Plain and simple, bad taste. It's just plain rice. People need to do shit right or get out of the game imo.

This looks like a photoshop image to me :) All the yellow parts aliased badly. Looks like something I did once with a crummy photo editing app.

Decals on my car...I have ONE, and it says www.indyimport.com. I put it on there last summer when a local shop here in Terre Haute was getting a lot of stuff through them. Again, you may not like my car, I really dont care. I am not talking shit to anyone about their cars, no reason to do it to me. I just thought I'd introduce myself and say hey to everyone. Also, there is no photoshopping done with the yellow stuff. I did use photoshop in the one pic I posted where I took the wing off, other than that, no. Sorry, if I had known "The Fast and the Furious" was going to come out after I got my car, I would have never bought an import. I get sick of hearing all the shit. If you dont like it, TOUGH.

INDIANA GUYS: I live in Terre Haute. I'd be willing to come up to Indy to meet up with you guys as long as I'm not too much of a "ricer" for you.

don't worry about what people say about your car bro....i get shit for having a mitsu all the time(especially from these two kids that go to my college...one has a prelude and the other has an integra). i just ignore it. it's your car, and if you like the way it looks...then that's all that matters. it takes balls to make your car look different from everyone else's.:thumbsup

there is a lot more positive people on this forum than negative , you just have to filter the tards out. just dont let this stop you from posting and asking questions on this site. :thumbsup imo . your car is an extension of yourself .with that said, do what ever you think is good . 1 day paint & body with fix that up for like 300 bucks . your car looks good , it just doesn't match.
my two pennies <--dont spend all your money on looks , you'll be kicking yourself in the ass like me when you enter the performance zone of your car.

Hey bro... I didn't mean anything by it when I said that the pics look 'shopped. This is a great bunch of guys here, and will surely help you with anything you need. Anyway, I am from Indiana as well, and would surely hang with ya anytime. Going turbo in about 2 weeks. Could use any help I can get. Perhaps we should start an Indy 2GNT gang of sorts. How about everyone from Indiana email me, and I'll compile a list of us, and make us a little website or something. Maybe we can all convoy out to Norwalk for the DSM Shootout too. Drop me an email at blitzedeclipse@hotmail.com so I can compile the list. Be sure to give me your name, location, and car info. Catch ya later!

I just emailed you my info.

Thanks for all the positive input guys, I appreciate it. I just got my car running pretty good, so now I can start doing stuff to it. Given, its the 420A so I'm not going to be ungodly fast, but I can definitely make it quicker.
46549, RE: My Car (I'm kinda new)
Posted by Eclipse2NR, May-02-03 10:55 PM
I replied to your email. Oh, btw... read around here a little, and you'll be surprised what you can do with the 420A... in some ways, it's superior to our 4G63 counterpart. I should be close to 270 hp in a couple of weeks, once we get the turbo system installed and tuned, and pipe the intercooler.

As for the Indiana 2GNTers, I've put up a little site with some information about starting a group of us... check it out and let me know what you think of the idea...

looks lie it is in good shape. i don't personally like the yellow, i would match the mirrors and have a white decal. college is tough bro, not the classes but the money situation. do what you can to make the car tight in your eyes.

Welcome to the board!

I may not like your style, but I have no money to have a style of my own so I give you props for at least having some money to invest. Now that you're here, we can "educate" you on what to put on your car and not to! j/k It's really your own personal taste, but I'm sure that after you look at some of the cars on here you'll get some clean ideas of your own that might not be such a hater magnet. Sorry for the assholes on this board!

Enjoy!

Posted by 95 Mitsu, May-18-03 03:10 PM
Actually, I sold the wing. I just bought a turbo wing off eBay, I like the looks of those better anyway. I dont know if I want to add little things now (like an intake, etc) or just save up for a turbo kit. I had around 2grand saved up last year and then threw a rod:( . The only thing I know I'll buy before then is a different front bumper. We'll see I guess.

BTW, the pic in my sig is what is looks like now, w/out the huge wing:P
