MarcusDubya77 Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 So, one of my students swears up and down that his 03 Eclipse, hell I don't know the mods, but I will theoretically give him everything NA..Header back exhaust, chip, V6, CAI, and 5 speed. I myself am 05 Stg II TDC protune 5EAT....Who wins??? I have killed Eclipses before, and just for the benefit of doubt, want your input... :woowoo:check out the Diamond Gray Metallic Monster!!!

rao Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Unless that thing has a rocket strapped to it (and a big one at that) it will not even be close. If he'd like to come North for an education I'd be happy to become an adjunct professor Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Unless he has turbocharged it.....that is no race....they are PIGS! Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusDubya77 Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 thats what i thought..oh well I guess you have to love your own car, even if its unrealistic :woowoo:check out the Diamond Gray Metallic Monster!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradiso Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Not even close unless he has a turbo or supercharger installed. I traded in a 2000 Eclipse for the legacy. Even stock the lgt wins. The one thing that it had was torque down low (and the torque steer to go along with it). I really liked my Eclipse and even miss it sometimes, but there's no way that it is even in the same league as the lgt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitestar Pilot Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Your friend with the eclipse has been watching too much of that Fast and Furious sequel, which was basically an two-hour add for Mitsubishi--targeted at the people who would actually purchase them.

AFAIK Mitsu has put out some great tuner cars, 1g's, 2g's, DSM's, EVO's, Starions, Current:MY05 SWP wagon - 253/290 UP, AEM CAI, Invidia Q300, tuned@yimisport OLD: MY06 GRP - 274/314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDII Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 As long as he has no spray, it will be like an 18 wheeler racing an indie car. Need forum help? Private Message legGTLT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusDubya77 Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 The more I look at his car, the more I have to agree w/ the F&F statement..AEM stickers on the windows...funky projector headlights,and big 3+ fart out the rear...I really think he is just mis-educated about legacies..Hell he didn't even know what it was.. :woowoo:check out the Diamond Gray Metallic Monster!!!

D0WNxSH1FT Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 3G Eclipses are slow. Very heavy. Ive driven them plenty of times when i worked for a Mitsu dealer. You should have no trouble, then again you are 4EAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D0WNxSH1FT Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Bah 5EAT, still an automatic, still a lot slower than the 5MT LGT. Either way you should have no trouble at Stage 2. Oh and the rapper is Nas. lol. (im so white) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSiWRX Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Like others have said, the 3G, unless it's got some *serious* modifications, should pose no threat to you at all. Not from a launch, certainly. And more than more than likely (purposefully redundant), not even from a roll. Just be sure you don't somehow inflict that 9 PSI boost cut-out..... Got that traced down, yet, bro? <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSiWRX Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Hey bro, I did check the thread, but I'm unable to contribute further - I am not up-to-date on the wastegate replacement/install techs.... Hopefully, if you searched around a bit on the AVO actuator, you might get some helpful posts.
