first car 94 clipse! need advice
My first car is a 1994 eclipse 1.8L non tur.
i realy dont know anything about it. when i got the car most of the parts where in the back seats(slave cylinder,battery case with bolts and bar,and alternator. it has been sitting for bout 3 years, most of the interior is still intact but its still missing some easy to comeby parts.
It has 148k miles. i tried to start it today after putting on a new timeing belt. i probably should have syfoned the gas outta of it(its 3 years old).
i cant figure out why the clutch fluid isnt going down.
should i just attempt to invest in a 2.0L tur for it? plz help!!!
im tryin to keep it jdm all the way if u have advice throw it down i could use alll the help i can get
peace.

it does not start, it kinda turns over but not all tha way,
i put brand new spark plugs in today. well i need to find a diagrahm of the belts layout.the old one broke and the person that helped put it on is in florida for tha week. i have checked the auto zones and ol reilys in wylie neither carried the repair manuel for the car.
wat color is ur 1990 eclipse? do u have black seats not granny grey? how much for the hood and the latch?

i was thinking about that but me and a friend decieded that if i fixed my car all the way with some help that i would have more respect my car like i wouldnt treat it like another pile of **** driving down the road. I know its not the most lovable car and people look at it like it was too old or its a money pit, u know what i mean. like the car fits me. and i realy woulndt mine if i had the only 1994 full jdm eclipse in the dfw area

Hey I feel you dude... I bought a 1990 1.8L FWD Eclipse for 1000 bucks. I'm fixing it because I wanted pride in a car that was nothing and turning it to something... I now have a 2.0L Turbo in it and converting it to a front mount intercooler. I'll tell you this much, it's a lot of work and time. But like you said, you'll have a lot of pride in the car once it's done. Go to my Myspace and look at my pictures of it:

The 90 eclipse i'm parting out was red, the hood is in decent shape and the seats from that car are currently in my 90 awd tsi.
