My new ride! 1990 Eclipse GSX :)
My brother is moving to Florida. Look what he's leaving behind! I scooped it up for the right price.
It definitely needs some work, but should be fun to have around once I work out some of the kinks
Comp 101200 cams
Big 16G w/ 10* clip
FMIC
2G MAS
660cc injectors
Apexi full exhaust with 5" can on back
S-AFC2
AVC-R boost controller
Gauges up the wazoo
JVC deck w/ 12" sub
17" 2G GSX wheels
came with extra set of rims and snow tires too!
I just can't decide whether or not to hang onto it or sell it. We'll see once I fix it up, but it sure is a looker!

I must say not too bad scheides! Looks like the body is in pretty good condition too besides the drivers side fender. What kind of work needs to be done on it?

Re: My new ride! 1990 Eclipse GSX :)
I don't think I've ever seen a 1ga in that color. Nice pick up!
Are those scratches on the front bumper? Anyways, I'd say keep it!
Fix up the body inperfections, maybe paint the top black, then she would be HOT! Put a talon center piece in or just remove the plastic piece and let the radiator breath!

If he got rid of the evo he would be back at square one again with having to deal with all the probems. Problems come with an 18 year old car. Thats why he bought the evo.

Nice! Aside from the fender and door, that's a clean car! Wanna trade interiors?

Be a man, keep it. Everybody should have a clean 1G.

Looks great, but the responsible side of me says sell it! It has nothing over the Evo IMO, but plenty of cons. You bought the Evo to avoid the DSM headache.

Very true but yes, look at it! It's a little rough around the edges but it sure makes me smile every time I look at it! With my brother moving to Florida, it keeps part of him here with me. I'll fix it up, and then in a while probably put it up for sale at a nice price. If someone agrees on that nice price, they can have it. If not, it will stay right where it is!
I don't have any more pics at the moment, the car is filthy from sitting outside for a while. I'll clean it up, probably show boat it around a bit, maybe bring it to the dyno day even
