Sup all? I was told of this site and since I live in Minnesota, i might as well join everyone else. I own a 95 Eclipse GST with 60198 on the odometer. I have had it for about 2 years now, and is currently down due to 6 bolt swap. I have kept it stock outside and in due to funding problems. I'll post some pictures of it later on after i upload them.

Nice car, did you just decide to go with the 6 bolt swap, or did u ruin your 7 bolt. Who's doin the motor swap, you yourself or a business. Money is always an issue when you own a dsm. :p

Welcome! I have a few friends in Rochester and visit there a few times a year. Will have to stop and say hi the next time I'm down.

I see you must have encountered the famous 2G door handle breaking on your passenger side?

My 7bolt decided to eat the rear balance shaft bearing, which in turn chewed up the bottom of 2 of the pistons. It also somehow spun #1 rod bearing at the same time. I have had my 6bolt for since summer time, but becuase of funding and the lack of auto flexplates, it was put on hold. I'm hoping to get my CDL class A license so I dont have to run out of money working on her.

Edit: Jakey : No actually that was like that when i bought the car.
