-you need some 18's and a drop.
-ditch those tail lights.
-and get a turbo :)

i was thinkin just 17's because 18's start to weigh in a little too much. yeah i'm putting some stock tails on at the end of this week so that will be taken care of. I want to get the eibach pro-kit springs, but that will wait until i get some rims.

haha yeah turbo would be nice right about now, but I have college coming up in september. movin out from hutchinson, mn to houston, tx and going to UTI for auto body and collision repair. should be a blast. if anyone lives down there, ya should give me a holla. we can meet up when i'm down there and show me around or something haha.

EDIT:
o yeah, u got a sweet car too man. my friend has a 3000gt and it looks somewhat similar to yours. i got some pics on the website i made for school in my computer class:

his car is stock and automatic, but it looks really nice (considering it was totaled and he had to have 2 cars to put it back together, his dad runs his own body shop)

Ooo, does that mean you can paint my car? :) But yea, college is a hoe. It drains you dry and then leaves you penniless.

haha yeah it is. my friend had a 96 eclipse gs that he totaled and when he bought it, it had that in there. we were testing to see if it made a difference. we finally got it to light up the led showing that it works so we are going to see if it actually does anything. i dont think it does tho.

I think for the exterior of the car you could do tint, 17s for sure because when you lower it, and some day if you decide to get a camber kit it will rub inthe back when you hit bumps if you have 18s, thats what happened to mine i guess. If you are going to go with the Eibach lowering springs, i think you would be much happier with the Eibach sportlines instead of the Pro-kit. I personally was hesitating over the two springs and i decided on the sportline and i love them. And ya sorry to say, but i think you need to take the altezzas off too, I guess ive just never liked them.:thumbsdown

get that center piece painted, you won't be dissapointed.




edit: I see that you had a painted center piece before. Is there any way you could trade back? Or do you like it red all the way?

Thats too bad.

yeah, i did have the center piece painted. it wasn't the greatest job done on it so i took it off to see how i liked the all red tail lights. im probably going to try and repaint it again to make it better and then put it back on, so dont worry ha

Looking good! My vote is to keep all the red with the Eclipse lettering. Once you take it off you start to miss it. :(
