I just bought a 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX 5-Speed this week. Just thought I would share this beauty with you guys.

This thing is in great shape with very, very few flaws to the exterior. For being 15 years old, it is almost crazy how clean this DSM still is. Barely 80k miles on the clock right now, like 80,047 I think. Enjoy.














I'm real pleased with it. Can't wait until I start mod'n it. Little thing is quick as hell already, I don't know if I'm ready for what this thing will do with a bigger turbo, etc.

I am also having a very wierd problem with it, maybe one of you can diagnose it. I made a post on DSM Talk because this site was down for a couple days (for me at least). http://www.dsmtalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=131888

I also entered it into a local car show this weekend and took 2nd place in the 90-99 Stock class. I got beat by a car that was far from stock. A '99 Intrique with 18" chrome rims, and all sorts of other work that made it definitly not stock. Oh well, I'm still happy with getting 2nd at a car show with a car I only had for... 4 days at the time.

Thanks again Spy for all the help, biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

If you know anything about painting aftermarket rims send me a pm, I really need some help with them. I have no clue what kind of paint/prime/clear I need and I don't really know how to go about the prepping either.
