wanting a 2nd gen
ime looking to buy a second generation eclipse and i had a couple of questions 1- how much should i pay for one in good condition and 2-would it be possible to put a bigger engine like a V6 under the hood without too much modification and to have enough room for aftermarket parts?

RE: wanting a 2nd gen
Well I wouldn't pay more than $9000 for one with lower miles and in good condition...Why the hell would anyone want to put a V-6 in a 2G????!!! A 4g63 turbo in a GS-T or GS-X is the way to go...I have a '99 GS-T with the 4g63 turbo that just rolled 51,000 miles on it this summer (had 45,600 on it when I bought it 2 1/2 years ago) and I absolutely love it...putting a v-6 in it would be retarded! A 4g63 with some mods performs awesome and I'm extremely happy with mine..Get the 2G with a turbo and can that V-6 idea..I think that was a mistake by Mitsubishi anyway when they first came out with the 3G's.

and if you want to go convertible find a spyder GST :-) turbo spyder.... just thats all it will be... its hard to find engine mods for a 4G64 motor :-p

then you have to think about power to weight cause the spyder gst is one heavy mother. just thaught i would add that.
