RIMS GOT STOLEN, DAMM IT

























Took a long time but its finally done. Let me know what you guys think. Go to the link above to see more pics and a description of my car.

first of all props on all the work you did. there interior looks good, exterior looks ok. love the lambo doors. sucks that your go your rims stolen x(

All I can say is DAMN! That is hot! :bowdown

bwahaha the kit and interior are off the scale, its one of the best interiors i have seen by far. but that yellow color reminds me of that yellow eclipse with optimous prime

and whats the deal with the hood? doesnt match up to the bumper? take those rubber stopper off of the radiator support

awsome :thumbsup

Very nice looking ride man.

I just have one question, you were able to afford all that custom work and you didn't get a nice set of locking lugs for your rims?

*I second you needing to take off the rubber hood stops by the radiator.

Locking lugs are useless if they really want your rims (not sure if he had them or not). Also, you don't need to take off the rubber stoppers. They actually rotate - turn them and it will make your hood close higher or lower. When I finished painting my car, it was way too low so I had almost no gap. I just had to turn it out so it lines up good.

Nice ride...I was wondering how the subs sound so close to the glass. It seems like they don't have much open air around them? That's a lot of amps you got there too. How many subs/speakers do you have?

I have 6 subs, 6 mids, and 2 highs, and there is a sealed box in the compartment below the enclosure and trust me, it thumps. About the hood, I completely took out the rubber spacers and I still have this problem but oh well its not that bad.

Car looks good... but wait a second. What is that I spy on your a-pillar???

Awesome fake nitrous bottle on the a-pillar.

Wasnt there a thread about this in the pits a while ago?

WHOA! Looks nice and insane, can you drive that thing. Very unique.

Everything is looking hot! ^ The piece of fiberglass, sticking towards the ground, under the rear bumper is so strange looking. I would cut that thing off.

i am surprised there have been n o questions about the doors. Was it a kit?? How hard was it to do?? Can we get pics of the hinges, etc...

Ditto, Awesome work dude. Too much Bling for my taste but awesome job none the less.

I am also curious about the Lambo Doors.

too much bling for me too! But that looks realy nice and looks like you put some elbow grease into it. I like the trunk setup. Is that fire extinguisher running to you engine bay?

What's under the hood??? Pics? :)

***Nevermind, I saw the engine bay pic on your website. Looks like it's time to focus on performance now, huh?

very nice trunk setup..me likeyyy

incredable work, i can't believe the before and after pictures of that car. can't wait to see it with some dope wheels. :bowdown

woah! i remember seeing the pics u posted before this happened (in progress pics). damn.... came out very good. i like it. your sponsored right? i seen that car on a site selling those door setups.

Thanks for all the great comments. To anwser some of youre questions.
Vertical Doors, Inc. makes a bolt on kit for our car which takes approximatly 2 hours for a total installation. Only modifications needed is the inner part of the fender where the lip is needs to either be cut out or bent back so that the door can swing out enough. The door swings out a predetermined amount and only then can it be pushed up.

The bottle on the Pillar is simply for show, it is not functional, I just wanted to dress it up with something because it looked soo plain. I have my real 10LB nitrous bottle sitting in the backseat area. Hope this helps.

A: Take off the bottle on the pillar. It destroys the quality of the rest of the car.

B: How much did your door kit cost?

Not really my taste but looks like you put a ton of money and hard work into it, I commend you on that :thumbsup:

That LCD where the rear view mirror is supposed to be...is that functional? As in you have some CCD cameras mounted in your rear?

one word... GANGSTA

id be to afraid to get in the drivers seat, worried i would break something lol

yuck. sorry but i take that car to be a disgrace to all eclipse's.. even the 3rd gens. its absolutely hideous. im not going to call you a ricer.. but.. well.. i can't think of another word. do you have any performance mods done? and don't say you have an exhaust when really its just a fart can.

What an asshole comment to make. If you look at the car for what it is then you can see there is a lot of really nice work into it. It's nice to see an eclispe that has nice work done to it and not just the average blitz or evo III front end done up with z3s to match. THAT is the kind of car that wins shows. Props to you importxs!

Ok win shows. To each his own. I was expressing my opinion. If you don't like it. Tough shit.

you could still give him some respect and or props..he put madd money it in..oh you have a gs with gsx rims..z-3's and a sensei front..:thumbsdown your into speed he isnt..shut up show some respect..

Yes! show some respect for the fake nitrous bottle on the A-pillar. Bow down to it!!:bowdown :bowdown

yeah that is gay he should of put guages there..i wouldnt of done that..

I don't understand what the deal is with picking on his car because it's show. Fact is that when eveyone goes to NOPI this year this guy has a good chance of winning a trophy as where most those who are saying they are "into speed" have to realize that odds are your going home empty handed because the FWD turbo class usually ends up with low 12 second cars or better.

Considering you consider your car show worthy then yeah it is an asshole thing to say. Compared to this car yours looks like shit on wheels. Thats my opinion and if you don't like it tough shit :)

There's a big difference between making a comment that expresses your dislike for a particular taste in modifications and downright insulting someone. If you don't like what he's done, there's a way to say that withouth coming off like a tool. If you don't have anything respectful to say then just shut the fuck up.

To the original poster:

It looks like you put a HELL of a lot of time and energy into that car bro. I would love to see that car with nice wheels and a car wash; job well-done. :thumbsup

That LCD where the rear view mirror is supposed to be...is that functional? As in you have some CCD cameras mounted in your rear?
The LCD is hooked up to a camera in the back of the car and you can see it working in the link at the top of my fist post. the system was so tall that the rear view mirror is pointless so I had a camera installed in the back.

I know this dosn't suit everybodys style and i'm totally cool with that. There are some things that people may not like but I can not expect to get everybodys liking. Thanks for all the support.

This is someone I respect. If others can't fathom the amount of work that went into this car, then they shouldn't even be posting a response. Constructive criticism is one thing, and expressing ones opinion is another...ignorance doesn't belong in this thread. I wish I had this much dedication to put towards my car. Awesome job! I can't wait to see what it looks like with some spacers and wheels!

mattchew=NOOBIE. stop talking shit. everyone has an opinion. don't jump on people that have been here LONGER THEN YOU, for saying what they thought of the car.

Why should I listen to you or kiss your ass just because you have been here longer? Ask me if I care. Look how many people already posted on this topic and gave him positive feedback. Constructive critisizm is one thing but just being an asshole is quite another. While I may be a newbie to this board I am no newbie to DSMs so you sir can kiss my ass if you don't like it.

Not really my style. Kinda tacky. I remember someone posted a link from ebay about the fake nos bottle on the a-pillar.

I dont agree with insulting someone like that, but he was being honest.

If everyone on this board told ppl what they wanted to hear, then their be no use. Some things ppl see differently. And I think no one has the right to come back at him, Mattchew, your not a moderator, thats what their there for, to handle things like this.


Yah get the rims on the car, keeps me interested and would like to see it finsihed. Nice hard work.

How do you find the LCD rear view mirror? Do you see more? or less?

I want to install one :)

this is a performance board, first and foremost. Show cars will not get the respect they probably deserve here, BECUASE ITS A PERFORMANCE BOARD.
If a show car has performance to back itself up with then it will get respect on here. IF you "all show and no go" guys want respect, go start www.show2GNT.com. Dont fish for it here! That dog dont hunt!!!

PS-not my style car, but i dig the lambo doors and the work put into it! Props to you dude! NOW TELL US ABOUT THE FUCKING DOORS!!!!!!!!

Originally posted by tim97rs

Yeah, everyone shut the fuck up and let's hear about these doors.

http://www.autosportz.com/bodykits_lambo_door_hinge_eclipse.htm

There are the doors. To hook it up the hinge takes 4 bolts that attatch to the car and 4 bolts that attatch to the door itself. Only big pain in the ass is lining up the door so that it dos't sit too much forward or back. Once you get it in the exact place where it should sit torque down the bolts on the car that secure the hinge (4) and now adjust the resting height of the hinge. There is an allen screw to do this and in the end it fits perfectly. Took about 1 hour per door. The only modifiction needed is to either cut out the lip on the inner part of the fender where the hinge goes or roll it back so the hinge can open up fully.

Nice work, glad to see it finished.

Performance board? That may be so, however this is the INTERIOR/EXTERIOR section. And that has nothing to do wtih performance. I figured this board was a place for ALL 2gnt's. Even the stocks ones.

Yeah, no shit! Making this a performance board and not a board for every 420a is no different than the guys who act like dicks on the 4G63 boards. It's like your saying since you don't want to fight with them, your going to pick on the guys who don't have speed mods. Everyone has differnt tastes, and that should be respected.

Back on topic, what type of piston if any is used on the doors?

Holy shit!!! $1450 for 2 hinges and some small shocks?!?! I think it looks sweet, but that price is WAY too high!

As i recall its not www.performance2gnt.com either :wary AND this is the interior/exterior section. So, with teh exception of gauges and "functional" body kits and wings, what would there be to talk about in here. :wary It's a board for 2gnt's, performance or show. QUIT HATING IMO!!!1!!

Either way, quit the bitchin and give this kid ALOT of credit, the car is awesome and there was ALOT of work put into it. Props d00d :thumbsup

WOw. Absolutely amazing...i like everything about it...except the a-pillar bottle---besides not going with the rest of the theme of the interior (IMO) its incredibly unsafe to have metal bottles (such as fire extinguishers and such) on either a-pillar...people mount them to roll cages becase they can be solidly mounted ,but you cannot get a solid around the a-pillar mount with that kinda bottle, so the potential for flying off in a crash is very very high....

not that you'll be daily driving it though, and man is it a gorgeous car, but others who imitate need to keep that in mind...

:thumbsup !!!!!

Vandy

exterior okay... back bumper looks hideous, looks kinda over done

interior, :thumbsup:thumbsup, not a big fan of the yellow, but mad props on the install.

performance, the car looks fast... why not go fast, your gonna have to do some performance mods, (Not under the hood bling) to win any larger shows. just a tip from being a judge at a couple

overall,okay show car

and as for james comment above, you faggots that responded to him as no having no respect, just because the guy is a member of the board doesnt mean his opinon has to be sugar coated. grow up... lucky 98silvergs hasnt seen this post yet

It reminds me of the transformer yellow eclipse...

Edit:

Here's a pic of what I was talking about!

props for all the work! nice

Not my style at all, but damn fine work! Props to you for YOUR project. Fuck everyone else. This is your car and your work. You should be proud of it. :thumbsup

Hehehe

and for such a low price... you could part that bitch out, make 10 grand.. then sell the car stock.

y, u just finished the lambo, get some rims and stuff and least ride it out for a bit, y sell it now?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2459864270&category=6352

Yeah I love the car except of course that fake bottle on the a pillar. If you want to dress it up then get a triple gauge pod and throw some dummy gauges in there. It'll look a lot better. Overall your car looks amazing.

Guess You All Made Him Feel So Bad He's Gonna Sell It Oh Well

Yeah right, a couple negative comments aren't gonna make me sell my car. I haven't had one individual who saw the car in person tell me they didn't like it. Plus all the comments on CarDomain.com are feeding my inspiration.

I am selling this car because that is what I do: buy a stock car, modify the crap out of it, and sell it once I am done. I've owned 6 cars so far and all of them went through this process. My next car is a 90-96 300ZX Twin Turbo so moving on to the www.300zxclub.com forum. I'll keep a look out on this forum for some of the project cars to come such as widebodied and optika, can't wait to see youre guys cars.

But dude, aren't you losing money? I mean man you got a ton of money into this car.

get an optima yellow top battery for the engine bay :)

awesome, sucks about the wheels though...i've been there and done that..now I'm stuck with rims that I cant decide if I love or hate... but yea, it's an awesome car, kinda what I'm gonna do with my car,lambo doors, similiar graphics, minus alot of that other show stuff...

hmm... so.. why so cheap?

when i was reading everyones bickering i jsut thought it was funny and i wasnt planning on posting anything...THEN... some jerk off starts saying this is a performance board. i will not dispute this as i will not return to this thread however whoever said that is a FUCKING TARD ASS! is the site www.2gntperformanceboard.com you fucking shit brick. sit your ass down and shut the fuck up.

other than that, i think everyone should be able to state their oppinions and there is nothing wrong with that, if you dont like the responses you shouldnt be posting your shit... thats the risk you take.

This IS a 99% technical performance board... Have you seen those other forums on this board?
Not a good idea to call the old school members (siu) tard asses when you only have a measly 160 posts... lol

DO I HAVE AN INTERESTING STORY FOR YOU GUYS
I get an e-mail from an eBay user asking why my car is being advertised on 2 places on eBay. I was like WDF? So I look at the other auction, some guy has taken all my pictures, description and everything and posted it on his auction. So I e-mail him saying WDF and it auto responded about how a 1000 deposit has to be made and all and I never got a reply about my question. So I report it on eBay and it turns out this guy is in Germany and was trying to scam anybody that would bid on his auction. Damm, be ware of eBay fraud.
