The car was in Excellent Condition,Inside and out..I really love the car alot..
I drive nothing but Honda's so this is my way of stepping away from the "JDM SCENCE" For a while..

I've always loved the Eclipse way before i even had a car or license,but never
got around to buying one until just recently,Both of my other cars are now Project cars..My RHD Crx and GT3076R Turbo Si..I know most here are not found of Honda's But please understand that i am in no way a "Honda Ricer" with crazy loud exhaust or anything like that..Well I plan on being here for a very long time..and hope to get to know many here,Seem like a very Helpful Forum :cool:

Thanks Guys..As for the Mil.120k I know thats quite alot but the car runs Super Smooth..We check the Engine and everything seem to be in Really Good Condition.. The Car was Owned By an older Couple so it was well maintained...
As for the DVD player Its just a Dual Dvd Player,Nothing Crazy,I Bought that the same day i got the car,Something id never do to a Honda but this car has that very Sporty Look on the interior so i felt like throwing that in..

Mods? The car was pretty much stock..I already ordered The SSQV and looking to pick up a K&N Filter..

Super clean DSM!

You ordered a BOV for the car w/no boost gauge or MBC? Why did you choose the BOV as the first mod? I don't think it will bolt to the UICP. ;)

A few things
1. I'd be careful of that dual it might just take a shit on you one day out of no where

2. I want to see pics of the rhd ef and this turbo si... (post pics here or link me to HT or something)

3. I might just be deefin' right now but what does an intake with dump tube mean is it the recirc. tube?

swade

ps. clean car, a kid here has one almost identical, even has the ssqv on it

1.Its a 400 dollar dvd player,so i kinda figured something like that would happen..im not really big into radio's and players so i just got that one,the Alpine's were nice but they were going for 1000:eek:

2.ill PM you a Link(I dont know if its wrong to just post up a link here or not)

3.Well for some reason they call it a "BOV dump tube" and thats from DSMParts.com

Aw man, it's just not fair. I bought my 95 TSi AWD with 62K on it and it wasn't NEARLY that clean. It still only has 76K on it, but I drive it daily, so it'll be in the 100s in no time :(

Too bad the people before me didn't take care of it like I do :(

I'm interested in seeing this Honda's too.

Hey, welcome to the site. From the sounds of it, it looks like you know what your doing. I am just glad your not one of those guys that litters there clean car with no name ebay parts. It seems you have a strong back ground with that civic so that should put you ahead of the learning curve. Good luck to you and do a lot of reading, and try to plan out your mods it will save you tons in the long run.

Wow..Thanks everyone for the Nice comments..
I must admit i really don't know much about the DSM Platform
Yet..And thanks for the advice on planing out things,I already found that out
when i first ordered the SSQV,Then i did some reading on it and realized that i needed the recirculate kit :rolleyes:

As for my taste,I really do Enjoy and love a Clean and some what stock looking car Hence JDM..So no Body kits or Clear Lights :p .. I really do like the Lip that they make for the 2G's,so i plan on getting that..
And as far as Power goes,I really don't have any major plans for the eclipse..
Which is why i Got the GS-T in the First place,I wanted something that made good power and remain stock..I am already going through some of the
Headache's of rebuilding the EM1 and i sure don't want to go through that with the Eclipse..Well Thanks again guys:)
