What i traded my snowmobile for...
 
7 Attachment(s)
So i think i got a pretty good deal

1991 Eclipse GSX Auto
154,xxx Miles
16G(Not sure if this is true or not)
Axle back exhaust
MBC

Otherwise its all stock, It needs a lil work but for the 550 bux i paid for the sled i thin i got a hell of a deal.

The guy said it was "Broken & Probably not driveable"

I started to wiggle sensor wires and noticed the CAS plug was unpluged slightly. I pluged it back in and it fired right up, I drove it all the way back from forest lake with no problems but once i got home i took it for a lil rip down the highway close by and ended up poping the Headgasket...

So now i get to do a little upgrading

ARP's
Cometic HG
My old AGX's

And probably a couple other things, The funny thing is i really wasnt trying to mod it, And i was thinking that the whole ride home but after what happened might as well fix it right.

Here's some PIX!!! Mods move this if you need to.

Did you buy this car off of 170th ave in hugo on a back road? I think I know this car. You passed by the goofy looking chevy z71 sitting in the field i bet.

Who builds auto transmissions up? I know shep TRE and Dogbox are good 5 speeder rebuild shops, but who builds up the auto?

Get a huge stall/torque converter, launch on a huge turbo, petal to the floor for 4 gears at full boost = win.

IPT would be the people i'd have do it, I haven't had much experience with the dsm autos yet but from what i hear there the place.

I was looking at the Translab shift kit they had on there ( http://www.importperformancetrans.co...tUrAul3ut5pBOq ) but i was wondering if anyone has done this yet, And if so does it make it worth the money / time putting it in?


If the car was in a little better condition id be more interested in building it up but for now im just trying to work out the kinks and use it as my DD.

??? Thats the way i got it, All the black paint chipped off.. Yellow primer maybe?


Its alive again now with the help of some ARP's and a Cometic HG, 12 psi for now but suprisingly it rips pretty good. More goodies to come...:biggrin:

Kiggly would be the one i would ask anything auto related. He has put a TON of good info out there about them already.
