T/W 92 2.0 Turbo AWD GSX Eclipse
I got a 1992 AWD 2.0 Turbo AWD GSX Eclipse, fixed all the problems I found but now Im looking to trade it for something Honda/Acura because I can't really afford the upkeep of a turbo DSM car right now lol.
It has 112xxx miles
I just had the head rebuilt and resurfaced, a new timing belt put on, the gasket at the turbo/manifold replaced, and a few leaky seals replaced.
Its in the shop now getting a bad gasket and a few more things fixed ( will get more details )
I spent 2200$ fixing it up, I have reciepts. And the guy who had it before me fixed some things (also have receipts)
Some things the car has:
16g turbo
lowerd 1' all around (not sure on brand)
Short shifter
Tranny was rebuilt
New clutch
has 4 brand new tires, just need to be put on
aftermarket fuel injectors
3' piping all the way
New battery and battery terminals
BOV
The interior is 10/10 for the year. Driver seat has a few small holes other than that its good.
The exterior is 8/10
The car needs some new door seals
It has power windows and locks and P/S. Everything to hook the A/C up is in the car, just needs installed.
The car is white with black mirrors and a black roof
The engine sounds and pulls storng
There are somethings the car has done that im sure im forgetting to mention. If you want more details just ask.
I'm looking to trade it for something Honda/Acura preferably, if you have any questions just ask.
I will post pictures when I get home.

with those mods and a good driver you should be in the low 13s or even high 12's if the engine is really healthy...why switch to a fwdfail honda?
just re-read your post yea they take a bit to upkeep but the results are way more worth it imo...

haha, cause apparantly the popular thing I hear with DSM cars especially the 2.0 turbo ones is "They spend 50% of there time in the shop but when they do work they're well worth it" but I DD 70 miles a day and cant have a car that isnt always 100% reliable. Don't get me wrong if I had the money to keep this going, and a beater car to put my miles I'd keep it in a heart beat, its not a slow car by any means.
Heres a few pictures, will get more later.
