nice..
 
I respect him from at least apparently not deleting the OMP.

Sure, the car *might* last longer with premix and no OMP but it's too much hassle for a street car.

Premix would be a major pain. I'm not a fan of filling up with a calculator and measuring cup.
 
Absolutely beautiful Eclipse Zmann.
Wow.
You have a pristine example of how to do the car right. đź‘Ť :drool:
 
Nope. That's my car. :)

LOL, awesome, I didn't know the owner of the car was a member here!đź‘Ť Really nice though mate, one of the best Eclipses I've seen, probably the best.

Edit: I should ask, is it the AWD model? I'd also like to know if the carbon fibre bonnets are street legal in the US of A? My sister had to remove the CF bonnet off of her STi because they're not street legal here. She always knew it would happen one day, a cop picking up on it that is.

it's a '97 Eclipse GST.. so it is turbo with the 4g63 (EVO engine) but only FWD. Carbon fiber hoods are completely legal here in the States. The only thing illegal on my car is the no front license plate. They're required here in the state of Illinois, but I just can't bring myself to ruin the car by putting one on.

I assume that they can be turned into a quick $10 fix it ticket there, correct?
 
Love that E30, RY-II's are pretty rare.

Old skool.

And I really like this thing... might not be to everyone's liking, but it's good to see PROPER fitment on a Honda once in a while.

How so? Do you mean if I was ticketed, I could just put the front plate on and show them so I don't have to pay the fine? I'm really not sure to be honest. I haven't even been pulled over and warned yet, but I do have a couple friends who were warned and/or ticketed too frequently so they just got tired of it and put the front plate on.

Exactly. In Tx., you just bring the car with the front plate on as proof you "fixed" it, & the fee usually drops.

I had one friend fax a picture over to the court & they dropped it. :dunce:
 
I'm a huge fan of the Mugen front bumper for the Integra just not the massive side skirts. And đź‘Ť to that EF.
I completely agree with the side skirts being WAY too big and looking out of place.
The car is total :drool: material though. đź‘Ť
 
This car has been through a lot. I know it's going to get a lot of haters, but I like it.

At first I was pretty "meh" on the car, then I saw this:

If sparks don't fly, you're riding too high. I'm in love with that car now. Watching an S-10 lay out and drag is one thing, but watching a Beemer do it? Ya I'm sold.
