It'll look a million times better without that wheel gap. 
Looks like the car has come a long way. Can't wait to see what you do with it next year!

Here she is guys my baby.

A lil bit about the Candy Eclipse
This car use to be a nt (thats right)
It also has 5 other DSM's in it.
So far It has been to 187MPH
Mods thus far?
Where to start where to start.
Lets begin with the engine.
It is a seasoned 2.0 6 bolt 4g63 6-bolt block, with balance shafts removed. As far as the rotating assembly goes, it a proven set-up consisting of crower rods, JE pistons (9:0.1) free floated with arp mains and head studs. All speed balanced to 15k RPM She rumbles and shakes down low but when the rpms climb its like music.
The Head sports ferrea super alloy valves with ferrea valve guides, and crower springs and titanium retainers, porting is excessive. The bump sticks of choice are HKS 272's.
Original Turbo was a pte 57 trim, But Now has a custom FP/ Garrett GT35R With a 44mm V-band gate on it.
I am fixing to put the ems and injectors in and who knows what the future holds. All I can say is I am looking for 550+ on pump gas, and a top speed past 190
I will post newer pics of the engine bay soon.

As nice as that cage is, is there a reason other than aesthetics you put the rear bars down to the trunk floor? Structurally they do nothing (passed the strut towers)
Just curious.
Just curious.
Well trying to stiffen everything up as well, the cage isnt completed like I want it it yet , Also I thought it had to have bars going to the back
She already has coilovers. It will be dropped in no time if it hasn't already. Friends don't let friends drive lifted DSMs.
All i can say is read the rules!!!:chair:Theron 07 said:
Other than that i love the car, looks sharp but, Im not feeling the rims.
yeah id also like to know this! If you havnt hit it yet make sure you make a video for us!!
Well since i havent updated everyone in a while i figured what the hey.:dunno:
I got to run the car at IFO in sept twice and I ran a couple times on the azenis's at the midnights
well on street tires i got 15'4 @ 129uke:
then at ifo on slicks i got
[email protected]
That was the second run and i was being easy on it as I have stock axles.
I havnt had a chance to do any 200mph runs but im sure it can do it. The car spins till 90mph if im on it and breaks loose at 70 aero enhancements havent happened yet, i'm just to busy anymore so the car just basically sets while I work
Next year the boost will be risen for the strip and i will have axles then, should be in the 10's for sure
