Building A 1999 Eclipse GSX In 10 Minutes

Coming up on 1 year since this project I figured I would make a 10 minute build video since I wanted to do it before and never did. I sold the car last year thinking I was moving far away and couldn't keep the car. I hope the new owner is happy with it and loves it as much as I did.

I LOVE that color, it looks great. I sprayed mine in the Dodge color "Sublime" and added holographic metal flake to the clearcoat. It was a real looker! Sadly haven't had the car in years and I regret selling it. It was my first car.

I'm a shade tree mechanic but have no exp with turbos. Looking to put one in my 2001 GT Spyder. I can do most of it myself just not sure how to get all the sensors and hoses. Nor do I know where to look as far as setting it up. Any thoughts?

Ehhh idk about that, congrats on the new car but I’d suggest researching a little more on that AEM ecu, usually there’s either not enough support or you often get bugs. But if your tuner suggested it then probably get it, my personal opinion, go with haltech.

@StreetInspired1 3 жыл бұрын

I'm glad you're enjoying it! The car does have an eprom ECU so you could get DSM Link much cheaper most likely than the AEM ECU. Also If you want a stand alone I would highly recommend Haltech!

I owned 3 eagle talons, One 1990 black and grey TSI AWD, and two 92 teal TSI AWDs'. I had a love-hate relationship with my cars. It was the most unreliable cars after you start pushing 400 whp. When it worked it was awesome, especially in Canadian winters. So when I got some money I bought the second most unreliable cars a 1991 300zx twin turbo. My Z has been built and has been very reliable. Great video and mad respect for younger wrenchers! To every one of you kids who like playing video games, STOP! Get outside and wrench! Cars culture is not the same any more people think its to much work. It is, but the feeling you get when you do something to your car is the best gratification you will ever feel when you take it out for a spin!

Reminds me of my first car, a 1999 Eclipse GS OZ Edition with a 5 speed. It was slow as hell but it looked great. My dad has a body shop and we took the entire car apart and fixed the dents and dings, resprayed it "Sublime" which is a lime green Dodge color but the hood, roof, decklid, and spoiler were painted black to give it a 2 tone look. I also sprayed the stock wheels black and installed aftermarket halo headlights and tail lights. Back in the day I used to constantly get compliments on it. I miss that car. Thinking about finding it and fixing it back to the way it was.
