13.935 @ 100.28 420a NA (no spray)

Went to New England Dragway in NH today (started down to Island but heard the weather and turned around to go to NED). Got all of 2 runs in. Crowded, and as soon as I got there, they shut the track down for 1 1/2 hours (accident then lunch break). Was nervous about new clutch set-up so I took it very easy on first launch and shifts. Ended up with a...

O.k. so my little brother just turned 16. My parents go out and buy him a 1999 Lexus es 300. (I wish they would have bought me my car) now that he has a six cylinder he thinks that he can beat me. What would win between the Lexus es 300 or an eclipse GST spyder? Both cars are automatic. The Lexus is stock. My eclipse has intake and exhaust. And a boost controller. The boost is set at 22 psi. so...

My friend is so cocky about his firebird with just an exhaust system. Right now he can beat my 97 eclipse RS with a filter, plugs and wires, and cat back exhaust.

Who would win when i put on:
high flow cat converter
header and downpipe
AEM cold air intake
Performance chip

standard is a good when you use it right. i was wondering how most people drive (or shift gears) in their cars in cruise and race mode. as for me i drive a

06LancerEs

normal=2500-3000rpm
racedout=5000-5800rpm

i know most cars will shut down at redline somewhere i'd like to know where mine will cut off... thanks

So i just got my 93 talon tsi awd this week, and its a saturday night. I just dropped off my friend from a party, and i wanna cruise a little. I hadn't been drinking or anything and i started hot rodding the car on some back roads, nothing too bad. Anyway, i decide its time to go home, turn around and cruise back. I get to a windey part of the road, down shift to third and take a turn at...

Which one would win in your opinion?

Me and my friend are arguing about it, we cant really find out till spring when we can take them to the tracks. Even though his car has 30 less HP it still seems faster.

ok so my brother has allways claimed ill never drive a faster car then him so heres my delema

i got a 99 eclipse GS 5 speed roughly 140 at the motor stock
he has a 2005 kia spectra automatic 138 at the motor stock
so im thinkin ill get him from a roll but he wants to go from a stop so what do you guys think

he has claimed to beat eclipses befor but i've never...

i have a 91 eclipse that i will be racing circle track next year. i've seen alot about the 2.3 stroker, but all i have seen is for turbo cars. due to rule restrictions, i can't use a turbo...is there a stroker kit for the n/a 6-bolt engines? if not, how can i get the best horsepower gains? thanks in advance

So i'm in the parking lot of advanced auto parts looking under the hood. (checking out an MSD install) when this talon pulls up. guy gets out looking like he came out of a box full of dirt. looks under my hood and says "you don't want that, it takes away from your power, the best things for your car are stock parts. my cars all stock and i'm pushing 250.) he's in a 16v talon....

Had a Neon get on my back door and this guy did not have any mods that I could tell in fact it was an old a** Neon that I could not pull away from but neither could he pass so at least that was a good thing.

I know got enough mods so I shoulda been able to at least pull on this guy.

I don't know for sure if it was the 138 version or the 150 version? I'm think'n...

I had a dealer put a new clutch in for me and they put some piece of crap OEM in and its not even 1 year later and its slipping. I have decided to screw it and keep the car and put a in either a SPEC StageII or an ACT both can be seen on and both are Mitsubishi Racing Clutches. I am only pushing out about 250HP on mine but I want the heavy duty clutch for long life. I'm not a clutch dropper...

So..i'm driving home...pull up to an intersection..look in my mirror..to see a beautiful silver intercoler...I looked up at the chevy sign and thought to myself damn..nice ss...I know i couldnt win...Supercharged 5 speed...Damn..Soo i pull out...keeping my rev's low so he wouldnt get the wrong idea..Cause i dont like to get smoked...I saw he put his left turn signal on..and i was going...

Just wondering what people are planning and doing over the winter for racing next season. I hit my 13's goal this summer and am going for 12s next year. I have the power to weight for it, i just need some traction and a new clutch so i'm going to get new suspension, slicks, new clutch (considering a Centerforce Dual Friction), and going to throw on a 50-shot to ensure that i make it well...

So HOW OFTEN DO YOU RACE

i know both are slow but this dumbA## keeps coming over to where me and a couple of friends work on our cars a small shop to say only ours though.for some reason unknown he decides to tell me his car can smoke mine.
he's a caliber sxt auto 2.0 cyl mine 2.0 also but 5 speeder.is it worth the time or not.btw we would go to a race track not the street.one last thing he wants to bet money 500...

i raced this viper and i won. it wasen't too fast till like 2nd gear, i was in 3rd and i sped past him. i was going 115 or so and he must have been going 95-100 maybe. my car is sooo fast. it gives me backpains, lol!!!

its not cool u will die. look at streetfire.net watch video from 693406 called i lost 2 buddies. Respect the power Respect the speed Respect life. know ur car and urself and both limitations. Stay Safe Stay alive. b cool

Alright my cousin has a 99 eclipse rs auto and i have an 03 oz rally 5-speed. does anyone have opinions on who will win before we race?

Yay for me... on the way home from work last night and my buddy from work decides hes gonna follow me home. we get to a red light... look over at him n he catches my eye... both stare at the light... turned green, dumped the clutch, had 1/2 a car on him in like 1/2 a sec. only got up to about 45 cause some guy in an ol chevy pulled in front of me... but i still got him up till then.

He...

was up people, I was just wondering if a stock gs-t could take a stock crx in the 1/4 mile.

Ok, My friend won't shut up about thinking he can beat me in his 4 cylinder POS Camaro. NO MODS. I drive an eclipse RS with cat back exhaust, spark plugs and wires and a K and N filter. ( barely anything). I beat him in the middle of day at a light the slopes uphill. He even got a better start than i did because i had to keep my foot on the brake so i wouldn't hit the guy parked behind me....

Like 2 days ago, this kid cody was saying how my car is a piece of **** and he could kick my ****. well i told him, lets race 2moro. well, i went to work to get sumthng, and guess who i see, cody. i chase after him and few mins later, we are right beside each other. time to race. he counts 1,2,3 then we take off. i have a truck in my lane so i wait till cody passes me then i get behind him and...

got a race with a 97 Cadillac tomorrow (thats the plan anyways). Ill be driving a 93 Galant S. Both are stock, hes got an auto tranny to my standard. predictions?

So my brother is finally getting his first car, a 1994 Saturn SL2. So, because we know nothing about Saturns, I look up some stats and tell him what I find. As it turns out, (not unexpectedly) the Saturn has slightly more torque and weighs 300 lbs less. Upon hearing this, he proceeds to gloat about his car being better/faster than mine like thats some huge accomplishment. He could be getting a...

Is it even remotely possible to manage a donut or a drift (etc) in a base '92 Galant? Fwd, 103hp 4-cyl (check my garage for more info if needed). This thing is bone stock. Ive been wanting to see what I can pull off in a car like that, but I would first like to see simply what can be reasonably expected from this car. If i had the money I would mod/replace it in no time (at least get something...

I was driving down "South Korean Way" around Tacoma, WA. when an integra ran by me blowin' smoke everywhere. Someone had to teach this guy a lesson.... and that guy was me! default/grin.gif' 'grin.gif' /> I caught up to him on the red light, and when it turned green.... Blew...

Ok, I know this is street encounters, but can anyone explain why people always want to race me at stoplights when they pull up next to my car? I don't get it. Check out my garage if you need to know what it looks like. I seem to get a lot of OZ Lancers.

Drag racing to street racing has always been in my familys blood. my mom was the biggest drag racing fan i ever heard of. well when i got my car, she still had her 65 mustang locked up. i wanted to race her in two races. her kind, a drag, then mine on the interstate to interstate.

1st race was the drag. went to our local drag strip and lots of people came to see this event. we waited...

Hey all,

Is there really any import out there that the GSX can't take?

I look at the pairing of AWD with a Turbo. I've seen a few video's (FINALLY found some) of Eclipse's actually losing in street races. One was against a topped out vette. The guy driving didn't launch the car, and clearly wasn't truly racing to win.

What kind of kills have...

I just looked up specs on the 3000gt and a GSX and pritty much the 4 bangin gsx weights a couple hundred lbs more than that 6 bangin 3000gt, wtf?!??!?!?!??!

I was on my way home from school and i had to drop a freind off at his house and i was driving behind an eclipse rs with a loud exhaust. so i was riding his tail alittle because i am a stupid kid. then when we get near a neighbor hood he turns on his blinkers and i turn mine on then we both turn into this neighborhood and we take off, im right on his tail at half throttle then he hits a turn and...

Ok, my freind used to have a beater, now he has a Celica 2003ish

If its a GT that meants it has 1.8l that is 140hp, weighs about 2500lbs auto tranny no mods.

If its a GT-S that means its like 180hp. about same weight

I have a RS(2.4L) with a cold air intake, lowered. So its what like 147hp. Auto. I think it weights close to 3000lbs closer to 2900.

So,...

just wondering who would win between a H22 JDm version with just a exhuast adn CAI vs a 97 gs 11,000km on the rebuilt motor bored .20 over valve job and balanced with a CAI and exhuast. BTW the h22 is a 95 civic hatch ex or dx. both manual tranny.

This kid at my school was showing off his dads new porsche caymen. I was wondering if my 93' gt vr-4 could take him. i know that i have a faster 0-60 time by only .4 seconds. But the only thing ive ever really raced was my brothers rx-8 and that kept up with my car pretty well due to the long power band. I just don't know if anyone has ever raced anything like the porsche. Nothing would...

who would win between a 1997 eclipse gst spyder and a 1996 integra gsr. the eclipse is automatic with intake & exaust
the integra is manual and stock

what would win between a 2003 lancer es(not the evo) or a 1997 eclipse gst spyder? default/gunsmilie.gif' 'gunsmilie.gif' /> default/gunsmilie.gif' 'gunsmilie.gif' /> ...

This is great!! I was coming back home from "Hot Import Nights" up in seattle last night on I-5, when a Grey Ford Crown Victoria dirves up next to me and is pushing on the accelerator. I'm minding my own business and all, due to my wife and kid in the back seat. The guy rolls his window down in the highway and does the "awww, you're scared" routine at me.

Yea!!! I beat my friend's 2002 Mustang, I know it isn't a cobra but it is still a 6 cyllinder engine. Who can say their Eclipse RS beat a frickin MUSTANG. I was so hyped up after that a felt like i could beat a Dodge Viper.

well maybe not. LOL.

Who would win?

1997 Eclipse RS= full cat-back exhaust, plug wires, plugs

1995 Eclipse GS= cold air intake, muffler, plug wires

Hello everyone I just bought a 2006 Eclipse GT 6speed manual trans. And when I first got it I was impressed with the torque and stuff. And thought it would outrun just about anything out there but................. Now that I have had it for about a month it seems like its not all that great maybe i am just used to it I don't know. But considering the imports that are made today how do you...

Ok, I have a eagle talon 92 fwd. Pretty much stock, no mods whatsoever. Ok, My friend has a 2005 Scion tc with, Injen intake, and injen x-Haust. Both 5 speeds. Who will win?

so tonight i went out and had a couple encounters. the first was with a crown vic with some work down. ive only got cold air and a complete exhaust on an otherwise stock 97 RS. we ran neck and neck. then i saw a galant that seemed (and sounded) like all it had was a crappy exhaust, and probably a cold air to go with it. we started off at a 55 MPH start, both of us dropped gears (i went to 3rd),...

So there have been a couple of funny stories here about racing attempts. I figured I would start a topic on this to see what kind of cars have tried to race our 4g Eclipse cars. Please let us know what vehicle(s) tried to race you and what happened!

Hey i know this is off topic for the forum but i like you guys lol ... if admin wants to move i won't be offended ...
