New and need some serious help
Ok so im 17 years old and have loved DSM's ever since i saw the first fast and furious movie. I recently purchased a 95 Eclipse GS. Thought it was the coolest car in the world with all of the mods. It had a swapped engine, Turbo, Blow off valve, short shifter, strut bar, front mount, short ram intake, custom exhaust, lowered 2 in, and has american racing rims. To a 17 year old who is looking for their 1st dsm that sounded like music to my ears; turned out i got screwed. I brought it to a family mechanic who took a look at it for free and he found that the engine was a bad swap, and the coilovers were heated down to compress so the car would be lower. Ultimately he told me that the car was unsafe to drive. Now I am in the process of trying to find a new engine, and coilovers to make my car driveable. I am also looking for a mechanic or any refrences to one who will do it for cheap because all of my money went into buying the car. If you could help me out with your suggestions i would greatly appreciate it.
