hey guys i been looking at some 3g eclipses and b4 i consider buying one i wondered if there was any specific problems this car might have. or anything i should watch out for b4 buying it? im sorry i didnt search this topic but i thought i would be alot easier to just ask and get some quick responses because i found one at a very reasonable price and im looking at it this weekend. so any help will be great!

 

Cracking of the dash, stock brake rotors warp if broken in incorrectly. If you have any future plans of turboing the car, then you shouldn't get the GTS. Thats really all I can think of. If you want a much more detailed answer, EMonz57 has owned a few, and still owns one. He knows them in and out.

 

my rotors did warp but it wasnt because it wasnt broken in right...the dumbasses at fire stone got to happy on the power sockets when they replaced my tires. it was an easy fix. the dash on my has not broken yet, but i take care of the interior. also if you are afraid of the dash cracking, you can replace the motor mounts, that will help. the biggest problem is the lifters ticking like crazy during the winter time. theres nothing wrong with this, its just annoying.

ummm....the biggest problem i have is 16 yearolds in honda civics, they always want to race for some reason.

 

Unfortunatly that's the rep of Mitsubishi at the moment.

 

what rep? having ignorant people trying to race their car after the put a cai and a crappy exaust?

i have been trying to find this crx for a while now. i seen it at the place i worked and it had an intercooler in the front of it. then i seen it at walmart and all of the sudden it had hks painted on it.....i really want to find it or just him and tell him how bad his car sounds.

i cant wait though, i get to race my friends lexus some time this next month.
