What do people usually run if their an ok driver, with street tires on the 1/4? Thanks im just tryin to see if i should spend 5g on a turbo kit or save up to buy a supra or rx7 or somthing.

dude, that question shouldn't have been asked! if you have enough income to be in the rx7 and supra range, then theres no need to be spending money on a turbo for an eclipse. get the rx7 or supra. sorry everyone, absolutly nothing against eclipes, talons, and dsms in general. i love my talon to death. i'm a huge fan of both of those cars though.

i dunno. Those cars are cool. The little thing called insurance just popped into my head. I could save up another 6g and sell the eclipse and buy a rx7. I also wouldnt know shit about it cause its rotary. No pistons. I dont even know what rotary means and i like the feeling of knowing how the car works. The insurance would be high also. I dunno.

Well you can get your car in the 13's with that money. Or if you want to spend a bit more go to the gsx. Rx-7's are bad ass, Smoothest mothers, but even in Los Angeles theres only 2 shops I would trust to rebuild one. Didnt the last gen have a problem with the oiling? hence the need for a rebuild more often then expected?

As for the supra...wow. :bowdown

uhh, with a built bottom, stage 2 turbo kit and some more fuel, 12 seconds is not out of the question at all.

Buy the supra or the rx7. Factory turbo cars can take more abuse and have way more up side.



Hello Mr. 12's . How are you today ?

Yeah but he'll have a built bottom end. Plus with the money he would be using to buy a stock RX or Supra, his Eclipse would be a total monster.

Why does every say the supra and rx7 but never a 3000gt or 300zx?

They're all up there.

rx7 isn't that great, imo. Rotary's great until your seals start melting from too much boost and you have to rebuild your whole engine. And the seals aren't that great in the last gen rx7.

actually I completely agree with you. I was gonna get one of those cars but I thought about it and remembered rx7s are rotary and i wouldnt know shit about them if i got them. Also i love 300zs and I was gonna get one, but insurance is too high for me:shrug. Yea there also cheaper than the supra so ...yea. You gotta good point anyway :thumbsup

God damn thats ways sexier than any beemer, rx-7, lexus, umm......and you can then spend your 5G's on the turbo and be fast. It would probably cost more than 5K to bulletproof a 420a. I'm gonna have my 2G for a LONG time. It's my favorite, almost 10 year old car!:thumbsup
Buy a big turbo and go beat up on rx-7's( and look better too):bowdown :bowdown :bowdown :bowdown :bowdown :bowdown

yeah, you should invest that money in your eclipse, you would have a fast car with 5k, go for it dood, and show people what the 420a can do. DSM 4EVAR!!
