My eclipse is just gonna be my DD, without the looks and fast add ons. I have realized that the mileage is starting to kick my ass on this car, and im investing more in stock parts to keep her running, then most you guys for performance lol. Car is a great car, only cuz Im keeping it that way, but in all honesty its killing my budget. ALready talked to my gf and im just gonna get a gst or tsi and mod that from there. I figured this was a better financial choice for my family..

Im still gonna say this car isnt failing because I power washed my engine bay, but It prob has a little to do with it.

well The TSI I had, was pushing 24psi DD. I was running 12's with it and loved the car. I only picked up my GS because I paid only $425 for the entire car lol. Im just tired of dumping $700 weekly into parts to keep this running, and turbo parts. Im just gonna save my "mod" money and get a gst or tsi.

If someone spends $425 on a car and expects nothing to go wrong...they fail.
There's a fucking sweet gs-t for sale on team-2g.com right now.

I have never expected the car to be perfect. So therfore I never failed. I have provided more attention to details then most on this site. As of right now, the car is running great after new wires again. So explain to me again why I failed?

Yes you are, I was being sarcastic. I dont even make 700 a week lol. it was just a figure of speech, but I guess next time for you I will be more obvious with my answer :-)

back on subject,

got the power back up and starting issues taken care of. Clogged fuel filter, changed out the pump. Also thinking I needed a clutch, all I did was bleed the lines :-).

Rob Im just bustin your balls haha
