New Member - Introduction and Eclipse GST

[GreenNirvana101]

Hey everyone! My name is Scott and I'm a new member on brew city muscle. I'm from Brookfield and go to school at UW-Whitewater. I've had camaros in the past, but picked up a DSM in October 07 to try out a turbo car.

It's a 1995 Eclipse GST with a fresh 6 bolt motor swap and a 14b turbo. Car only has 75k on the clock.

The following mods are done to it:
-3" intake
-3" downpipe and thermal exhaust (cat delete)
-Greddy BOV (generic)
-Hard upper/lower ICP
-ACT 2100 clutch
-Fidanza 8lb flywheel
-Eibach lowering springs
-ARP head studs

Check it out:

Yea, its to keep people from coming on and using BCM as a store to sell their junk, only.

Try Craigslist.:)

Stick around long enough you will have 100 posts in no time.

For sure man. How's the new car running? I haven't seen any pics yet w/o it having snow on it. Looks good from what I've seen though, I like the wing - you should go 2gb front bumper/headlights though.

[Brandon W.]

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Any local DSM groups around Milwaukee? I'm also a member of WISDSM, but just curious if there are any others. Thanks.

Very nice camaros! I used to have a 96 and then I had a 95 z28. I miss them... but they just weren't practical for winter and gas mileage sucked. One of these days though..... I'll have my black on black 97 SS M6. haha. My pipe-dream. Maybe I'll see you driving around sometime!

[1siksrt]

nice car!!! I had a bunch of v-8 stuff also and after my current turbo car, I will always BOOST now!!!

[PureSound15]

Have you any flaws that we can pick at? Have you ever stolen anything, lied and/or spoken without raising your hand?


:) Welcome

4th gens FTL.... :goof

[michelle]

I go to Whitewater too!

Is that the car you drive around in? I see quite a few Eclipses around campus.

[Brandon W.]

Is this the red 2G that was bought from that scam artist douchebag CJ?

[zerepdivad]

Wasn't this car up on craigslist and you were wanting to trade it for a grand prix?

[GreenNirvana101]

Can someone tell me how to do multiple quotes in a reply? I don't know how... so I will just reply to your messages this way for now. Let me know how its done! thanks.

Michelle - yes, this is the car that I drive around at Whitewater. I live over at Cambridge apartments. What are you driving?

Brandon - yes, this is the car that I bought from CJ. However, I was pretty lucky and haven't really had any problems with it. The boost controller wasn't on properly, but PNAD fixed everything and I haven't had any problems with it since. Starts up every morning and gets me wherever I want to go - very happy with the car.

Zerepdivad - Yes, it was, and still is on craigslist. I posted it as more of a "feeler" ad to see what else is out there. I am very happy with the car; however, if there is a clean Grand Prix (love the 3.8L motor), clean integra (gas mileage), or if the price is right - I will trade/sell it. So far all my offers have been for grand prix's with over 120k miles. Def not interested - so I'm thinking I'll keep this car because it hasn't given me any problems. I just wish it didn't take premium gas.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome so far. Also - I'm not the typical DSM'er that is on the dark side who steals/lies. I've heard a lot of bad reps about DSM'ers, so hopefully I won't adopt that lifestyle. I'm a student at UW-Whitewater going into Business/Operations Management and am an honest, working guy. No skeletons in my closet. :thumbsup

You'll find me primarily in my black '01 Taurus, otherwise a blue '95 SHO, or a red '90 SHO. And I live off of Carriage (off of Tratt).

Glad to see someone else from Whitewater, I think that makes 3.
