800+HP Eclipse GSX AWD “Toretto" - The Cleanest GSX we’ve seen!

[@vamsikrishna1824]

Ferraris and lambos are cool.. but there's something about these cars..when done properly they really show the time and passion put into them... wish they were available in India!

[@vamsikrishna1824]

@Riccardo I was trying to say these cars can be made more awesome than the "exotics"

[@13mazikeens197]

Its not about what you can buy. Its about what you can build.

[@lulg.5931]

vamsi krishna ferraris and lambos are just vehicles for fashion/style 😂💯

[@WhathefrenchTV]

I totally agree with you, don't get me wrong, I like lambos etc etc, but if I won the lottery I don't think I'm gonna buy one of theses... I'm gonna buy one of theses car, a 90s rx7, an eclipse, a 240SX, I think these cars are the greatest cars, a little bit modern, but not too modern, you need to be a pilot to drive them, you never really control the car. They have a soul.

Man, watching this makes me not want to even post a video of my car. Same car, same year, same color, same mindset for the car, half the HP. I'm just in awe over this car right now. It's really nice to see someone else have the simplicity mindset. Nothing flashy. Just AH! I love it. Nuff said.

Damn that car is clean. The dislikes must be from Johnny Tran's crew cuz they didn't get their sr20s before race wars 😂

[@TheMrhoneycutt]

I come back to this video from time to time. I'm a die hard DSM lover, and it makes me so sad to see the state of the culture now. The cars are rare, and they're hard to get parts for. Save them, or at least let their parts live on! Don't crush!

[@stephainr988]

Sometimes I forget that this is here. Can't believe it's been 6 years since this video. But car is nearly the same just quicker.

[@mdoe8]

Nice to continue see what sadly is considered old school tuners on the channel. All the super high dollar, incredibly fast cars are neat, but the videos of them get old.

[@petrolhead8851]

[@josephandreuccetti8043]

mdoe8 It’s boring and anyone with money can buy them People with money don’t know we’re to go for builds like this and they wouldn’t “waste there time” yet get smoked by these cars I don’t think they will ever get old for me even when I have money I’ll have old school built imports

[@nelsonm3522]

WOOT !!! 4G63 always alive !!

[@TheBb6prelude]

Nelson M anything from the 90s ftw

[@FloorItDuh]

It's nice to see one of these unmolested or not a total pile. Harkens back to an age gone by when Mitsubishi made good cars compared to the junk they make now. I never got too big into imports but this car held a special place for me and it had nothing to do with the movies. I'm glad to see he preserved the clean lines instead of slapping a horrible body kit on it.

[@youtubasoarus]

Been a mitsu guy for ages, but i'd have to agree the cars they make these days are a FAR cry from what they used to make in the 90's. It's such a fucking shame. :( And to top it all off, with a swift kick in the dick for all of us, they killed off the EVO.

[@timothysimmons9441]

Mine in storage is a 1999 GSX bone stock with 108,000 original stock miles, I'm the second owner, bought in January 2007!

[@CBTalon97]

Damn right!! I've had two 2nd gen DSMs, and recently picked up a mint '93 3000GT VR4 with low-mileage. Mitsubishi has definitely lost something over the years.

My first car in high school was a ‘97 GSX and it was gapping V8s back in 1999 with just a mbc so I can only imagine how fast this one is. Shame they’re so rare now but I’m not giving up hope buying myself a clean 2G before my 40th birthday. Crazy to think they’ll be considered a classic car by then.

You can definitely hook a strain gauge up through ECMLink, or even through the ARC-2 box.

[@stephainr988]

I'd like to hear it. It would cool to add it. Ty

[@talontsi92]

@@stephainr988 You buy the strain gauge, install it, and hook it to the clutch switch input that ECMLink uses for the no lift to shift function. This will enable the fuel cut the same as if you depressed the clutch and will unload the dogs so that you can flat foot shift it without using the clutch. As long as the strain gauge outputs a ground signal to the ecu, ECMLink won't know the difference. Note that this ONLY works for dogbox transmissions, although I'm sure you knew that.

[@stephainr988]

@@talontsi92 that part I know. Thank you. The problem is which strain gauge knob out there out puts ground. Cause most kits are set to output 0-5 volt reference.
