MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE | TOP 5 MODS!! (Under $1000)

[@stidaily1916]

I don't even have a dsm, but I'm gunna listen to you talk about 5 mods I can put on my eclipse that I don't have. Your channel is awesome, sir.

[@gentlemandrivermx]

I’m glad I got into a DSM. It’s been a good project/daily for me. Everything you said is spot on. Things will go wrong, maintenance is key but man o man the feel of being behind the wheel of an iconic car. The head turning when you pull up somewhere. Hard work pays off. Cheers Miguel 👍🏽

[@MzFields76]

Any power ideas for my 4g gs spyder 2008

[@shardsforme]

Nobody gonna mention how much better Miguel has gotten with cinematics? U r getting to a serious production level here

[@red_dragonracingsilvereclipes]

If I was doing mods for thr first time for mine at where its at now I would go with these mods first 1. wheels and tires for sure 2. ECM link allot of guys go why that being second because once you have it any supporting mods you do after will be helped by the ECM link being there already so you can fine tune the car. 3. exhaust free up that flow so the turbo can spool faster and the engine can breath better. 4.depending on how well the paint was taken care of that would be a new paint job so the car is fresh and clean again.5 .fuel system to where when you upgrade turbo and fuel injectors you will have the support for the fuel to supply those two with the best bang for the buck.

[@MiguelDsm]

You went with the performance route 👌🏼 perfect choice of mods if you’re looking for power. I’m a little more on the looks side

[@red_dragonracingsilvereclipes]

@@MiguelDsm true but looks is important as well that is why I said wheels tire and a paint job. because lets face it most of our cars have been woefully neglected by their old owners in keeping the paint looking fresh and polished but performance is also why we want the car in the first place is why they have earned a rep for being the baldest car on the planet to have on the street.

[@GhostDigital2k]

Full exhaust Wheels Bagged Upgraded Turbo's Stereo Would be my top 5 mods. Good video! Would definitely love hearing stories that happened in your life or more DSM and VR4 videos.

[@dcmarvel29]

Audio is excellent, no need for a mic, vid is clean and 9.5/10 overall. Keep it up bro 👌

[@MiguelDsm]

Appreciate the feedback!

[@mariomorales8697]

Sound quality is amazing Miguel 💪 Another great video bro and you should also make videos like this one but for the evo and vr4

[@MiguelDsm]

That’s the plan man! It’s the first of many 🤘🏼

[@Hakkoken]

Another banger 🔥 also I just noticed you either need to adjust the mic or sound treat the garage because there is a lot of ambient noise and sound bouncing around with the recording. Keep up the good work bro👏👏

[@MiguelDsm]

I didn’t use an external mic on this video. Have to learn what’s best through testing though! Thanks mang! 🤝

[@T_Y_G_E_R_]

I love these new sit downs! I would definitely love to hear stories about your life experiences! Car related or not. 🤙🏽🔥

[@whtdrgn33]

For sure maintenance, maintenance, maintenance! Then replace everything rubber! And I agree with suspension, wheels and tires! After that....Link, and then you are pretty much set to do what you want.

[@MiguelDsm]

I’ve rarely seen anyone get link right off the bat. It’s usually done right before they need to tune some mods haha

[@andrewguerrero6568]

Looks good man 👍

[@MiguelDsm]

Thanks man! Love the white 2g on your pic

[@Antwize]

thank you for preaching maintenance. Easily most overlooked thing in dsms

[@MiguelDsm]

Sounds like we’re beating a dead horse but it has to be said for all the new comers

[@fabianavila3755]

Got my first 2g eclipse its a RS though which sucks but its okay ill tune her up🙏 you inspire me a lot thank!

[@JpoT852]

In depth content is always dope bro

[@MiguelDsm]

Might start doing more of these tbh

[@Carnerdnoahh]

i agree

Thanks for watching Noah 🤝

[@adamkaesberg9394]

Keep it Rollin!! Let's get some details on the 4g63 and 6g72 engines. Like 5 things that impressed me about X engine

[@MiguelDsm]

I’ll add that to the list of ideas! Would be cool to compare both 👌🏼

[@emilio_jimenez]

[@MiguelDsm]

Sorry 😂

[@jonathanmarbury327]

Great video man! Keep em coming!

[@Quelu3]

Me gusta este estilo de videos migue explicando cosas porque personalmente aprendo para mi coche que no es un eclipse pero muchas cosas me sirven

[@MiguelDsm]

Me da gusto bro! Es algo nuevo que quiero integrar al canal. También en el de español

[@turbo_brian]

All used evo parts! XD. My 1g has $75 evo enkeis, $75 stock evo dampers, and probably other stuff. I think the list is different between 1g and 2g slightly but the power stuff is the same. Fuel pump and injectors are needed quick with both, exhaust adds a lot, intercooler and piping would be next for me, then turbo and exhaust manifold. Then dsmlink or a 99/evo ecu would wrap up the top 5 power mods to do on a stock dsm.

[@MiguelDsm]

So glad so many parts are Interchangeable. Makes them more mod friendly

[@gixrman]

First off, awesome job on the build. The best mod you can do to your DSM is to yourself. Research, research, research. If you have to ask what’s the best mod your not doing your research. Save yourself a lot of time, money, and aggravation. I went through 3 different turbo setups, multiple fuel/air modifications and other forum power mods before realizing the K.I.S.S rule is king.

[@OkayJayy_]

The 90’s manual eclipses in Pristine mint condition aren’t going for a cheap penny anymore

[@pFbSpecV]

It's crazy to think that I enjoy my 4g63 chassis! My galant vr4 was great until I started making power that broke transmissions lol

[@SamuraiWarrior-iq2kl]

Idk about under $1k cause here in my part of florida they going for $9k+ and thats the RS model

[@MiguelDsm]

I was talking about the modifications under a certain budget. Prices for these are way higher than 4-5k now

[@christian.adrian_2900]

What I like about your mod was the carbon fibers. The carbon fiber wing looks great on the eclipse. Where can I buy one and how much it cost?

[@MiguelDsm]

I got mine used Years ago. Message carbonetics on Instagram and see if they can still make one for you

[@jj-yv9pu]

i just bought my first sports car, a 98 gst with only 83000 miles on it, i’m gonna check and change fluids belts hoses and brakes but is there anything else i should look out for ?

[@MichaelJohnson-sb5si]

Inspect paint condition, look for rust, all rubber parts, all suspension components, maintenance records, make sure the wiring wasn't messed with, and make sure none of your hatch or sunroof drains are plugged (water in the spare tire area)(water leaking on you and your seats). 👍

[@joegarcia0424]

Hey Miguel much love, can you please give advice or maybe even top 5. Things we should do to a 420A?❤️

[@MiguelDsm]

Same list applies man. This car was a 420a at one point

[@aggrobox]

super high quality as always

[@jeremyescalante6296]

I just got 99 gs for $400 granted it needs quite a bit of body work but the engine and trans still running strong got lucky

[@President_Blanco]

Best eclipse vid I’ve seen! Any recommendation for maintenance parts specifically? Or even specific parts?

[@MiguelDsm]

I think it applies to any type of maintenance on any car. Timing belt, old sensors, hacked up harnesses, fluids etc

[@President_Blanco]

@@MiguelDsm I meant like a website😅 my bad

[@gooo1762]

Thanks!

[@MichaelJohnson-sb5si]

The biggest mistake people make is thinking they can get a GST or GSX for dirt cheap and not have issues, if you are paying less than $10K for one, you are going to pay for the rest in time and repair costs. 💵 I bought my stock GSX in 2012 from the original owner with 24K miles on it, never had any major issue in 10 years ownership. Maintenance, maintenance, maintenance! 👈 Has been mostly reliable as my DD the whole time. Only down for things like full timing belt jobs, ect... Finally getting my VeilSide body kit this month! 😁👌

[@jazck1706]

The audio is great except for the static noise throughout the whole time of use. If u watch the video, u can hear the sound of the static.

[@MiguelDsm]

I can hear it

[@omegatails]

about to buy a 1999 but i got extra for repair replace for parts i no things will break over age but itll be worth it

[@tonycorona955]

Nice video 👍

[@serairg]

In a car, the most important thing is the wheels

[@flyingace2246]

Sounds good 💯

[@turbo_brian]

Common with the cali hate. There's a decent amount of stuff you can legally do, the cops are just as ignorant as the internet. Cat backs are fine, hard pipes are fine (not the intake pipe ironically), anything carb certed is fine obviously, and you can also always get swaps certed if you do it right. Other states have a lot of laws too and just don't enforce them as aggressively. They're still on the books though

[@MiguelDsm]

From what I’ve seen, even carb legal mods can get you In trouble. Cops don’t really seem to care/learn the actual laws when it comes to what’s legal with modified vehicles

[@turbo_brian]

@@MiguelDsm yeah, going to court can be a pain but you can fight and win against an ignorant or totalitarian cop. I have.

[@jordanbarton60]

hey quick question, i wanna be that kid that has a lul bit of everything, the only thing i have done to my car is rim and coil overs other then that typical maintenance. but i was wondering wat engine can i throw in my engine bay? if i do swipe out the stick engine i would have to upgrade the trans too ?

[@chakiyajones5443]

I am looking for my first car and I have grown to really like eclipse, do you think it would be worth the money? for a first car?

[@silnicnipirat]

I would change final drive ratio.

[@MiguelDsm]

That’s a little more complex lol

You gotta search country wide bro, I had to fly to Minnesota for my 99 GSX and drive it home. 😃👍

[@gabiwasabi3639]

Is it a good idea to turbo a 420a or no?

[@MiguelDsm]

I wouldn’t do it again. For the money your spending, it’s not worth the hassle/little power you get from going turbo. Either Evo swap or get a GST/X and build that instead

[@jacobasuncion3132]

Would you recommend keeping the stock seats or aftermarket seat and if so which brand to get

Im a fan of Bride & Recaros. Stock seats are fine if you’re on a budget
