But if you can save the extra cash it would be a lot better to get the GT, because you will send a butt load of money to get it to go as fast as you want. I made the mistake of buying the GS and now im paying to switch the head out with an evo's then i have to get new pistons, fuel management and all kinds of other stuff, it wll end up costing about 4 grand HorsePowerfreaks.com Andysautosport.com RockAuto.com

The first thing i did to my eclipse was the suspension and brakes. Brakes are probaly the first thing you want to upgrade before you start adding more speed to your car.

[right][snapback]35730[/snapback][/right] the haynes manual sucks for the 3G. using the online service manual at the top of this forum is alot better.
