#23774, "Pics of my car"




          

so far the only things on the outside are an exhaust and a 1.5" drop (soon to be 2"+ after they settle). Let me know what you think and remember Im a poor college student working P/T. What next mod would you do?

As far as the engine goes, I'd stop at what you have and save towards a turbo. If I were you, my next step would either be a short shifter or save up towards wheels/turbo,imo. Very clean right now and it looks good though.

Man I dunno what it is but I love the way the 95-96 Eclipses look dropped. Looks good, imo. Screw wheels I like the 95/96 GS wheels.

the final pic of your eclipse lowered, is so sweet. i'm sorta in the same situation as u. i could either go na or turbo route. Wheels or shifter improvement would be cool for now.

Is your shifter knob facing the wrong way? I have the B&M short shifter and love it. That's the route I would go!

My next mod if I were you is to turn that shift knob around the right direction.

You don't wanna go into first when your driving in reverse. emoji

Turn that knob around, grab a short shifter and then the next mod I would do is make that interior look a little nicer. I got a really nice brushed aluminum trim kit for about $200 that was really easy to put on. Changes the interior completely, very classy.

If your going for more go and less show, save up for the turbo kit.

if u r poor (like me) do cheap and free mods. Get some paint and go crazy, seach the forms and look on clearing headlights and juck. Change ur HVAC lights, U can look on my site on how to do it or BUY RYAN RS instrutions.

oh the shifter... I was cleaning my car, and i just put it on very quickly to take the picture because i knew i was going to take out the center console to clean inside the shifter area. Its back to normal now. Turbo kit is outta the question, speed is not to big a concern for me. I think the most expensive thing i would be able to afford soon is wheels + tires or a body kit.

car looks great. I say tint your windows and get a carbon fiber hood, and then some black, gunmetal, or bronze rims.

if you're looking to do a cheap appearance mod.. go for lighting up the center of the brake lights.. the instructions are on the mods page... i just put in like 6 lights instead of 2.. and wired them up so they either go on when I brake or have my lights on.. if i get around to it i might try to put the small lights on the outer 2 brake lights too because it looks really sweet with the 6 bright dots in my center console, but it doesn't flow as nice as i'd want it to..
