This 2G Eclipse is going to financially ruin me

[@ninodaris1767]

I bought a barn find 1996 eclipse that had not run for 8 years. The amount problems you get is insane but i love the car as a project. I have no regrets!

[@mikej2264]

We are in the same boat. I bought a 98 GSX in February that hadn't run in 7 years.

same, and mine is my daily at school

[@isaiahdanielvlog]

Clean gsx! It looks like a 95-96.. that a 7 bolt?

[@StevieCoose]

That one is a 7, the green car is a 6

[@BammBamm2611]

Saved it, Stevie.

[@StevieCoose]

Somewhat!

[@TrustMelDontCare]

It is such a cool car! I think your vids are the first close ups I've really gotten. I've always appreciated them, but I didn't know what to appreciate :) Problems aside, an absolute beauty.

[@StevieCoose]

Thank you!

[@emperorgsx]

Wow thats a clean dsm🔥🔥🔥😍

[@StevieCoose]

It’s a beautiful car!

[@blakehardison6000]

how'd you get those reverse light assemblies looking so white?

[@StevieCoose]

Go to the parts store and pick yourself up a headlight polishing kit. Use it on every light on the car and they will look brand new. One step further, install some LED lights too.

​@@StevieCoose Make sure to clear coat afterwards or uv rays will just yellow again in a short amount of time. Bare minimum 1k clear works, if you want to be quick and dirty.

[@Pushe6]

easy fix, you can just go to your local home depot racing department (lol) and get some neoprene grommets in the nuts and bolts section, i think the size is 3/8ths that fits the injectors, from there continue on by finishing the boost leak test which is pretty easy to do, the car will start fuel cutting @ 3k rpm if you still have a leak somewhere, so check all the couplers, etc and just tighten/reseat everything and you should be good to go

[@StevieCoose]

Good to know

[@ItsGeezee]

Megan catback exhuast?

[@StevieCoose]

Not sure!

[@kwdoss56]

If it was easy everyone would do it! Be different. Anyone can LS something, but a coyote or hellcat, you’re not far from having a very nice build!

[@StevieCoose]

Well said brother!

[@cas5247]

If that car is going to ruin you need a different job and a financial counselor.😂

[@StevieCoose]

I mean, you're not wrong haha

[@streetbob818]

please dont remind me that 1996 is "30 years old" 🤣

[@StevieCoose]

Hahaha

[@cedricmiller4370]

Yea it really does feel strange that a 1996 eclipse is now 30 years old we are truly living in a different time frame on earth I remember seeing brand new 1996/1997 Mitsubishi eclipse sitting on dealership lots and a bunch of people sporting them on the highway back in the day very popular the eclipse, mustang GT, Camaro and firebird trans am were the popular sports cars to have too bad Mitsubishi discontinued the eclipse for the crossover version
