its euro style..btw..im doubt the GT-R will go into production looking like that
the front end is like..one big piece..harder to manufacture..hard to assemble

its somewhat veilside-ish

Simply awesome, build it Mitsu!

To everyone complaining about weight, it only weighs a few houndred pounds more then a 2G GSX. Also, for that weight you get alot in chassis stiffness.

I'd like to see it produced, especially to see if Mitsubishi has the same issues that chevy had with upstarts Syclone-T/A-GN vs the corvette kinda deal.

Hey John and 4drwhore I was talking about the base model 06 Eclipse's that the "new" GSX will be based off of, which are currently overweight, overpriced and have crappy reliability ratings.

They aren't selling, they weigh over 3500 pounds and have been reported to have faulty electronics and plastic pieces within the first 2000 miles of use.

Let's not go calling people ignorant just because you don't understand the post.

Looks to me like someone might have done a evo 4g63 swap to a 3g eclipse.It has aftermarket charge pipes and looks to be a external wastegate.Looks mean tho.
