I think I was there in my old rotted 1993 AWD for that meet.

Most days I miss DD'ing a DSM.

How's that clutch Mr. Alex? Smooth, not too hard or abrupt in gear changes?

They feel almost stock.

You where there in a Volvo. Its parked beside me 😆

I might be confusing meets, the one in the KW area I believe I came in a black S60, but I think the pics above are from a GTA meet which I had the tetanus-mobile with me. Oh well, always a fun time

First 2 pics are kw. Last one is gta.

SB PP feels too weak for me and i'm afraid it will not hold launch control. It feels 10% lighter than ACT 2100 which is light already. I personally don't like soft clutch pedal. If i was doing it again i would use ACT 2600 PP with SB kevlar disk.

Regarding kevlar disk, it still chatters on low rpms (off the line 1st gear) but 3 times less than my last act 6 puck sprung disk so it's VERY streetable. Overall this disk is awesome, period! I still never yet tried ACT street disk so i cant compare to that.

That red one yours too?

It's a friend's, he's 3 doors down from me.

both look like a really good friends and family...one of them is pretty

They both pretteeyyyy.

2G time, here comes mine:



Driving on sand? no problem

Pulled this thing out after sitting for 2 years. Needs a bath.

How's it feel to have it out?

Was good till the alternator died

Well its still a DSM AWD

Did you buy that John?

Thinking of trading the old dog for it, not running T-belt valves!

Finally went out fir the first drive of the year today. Diff and everything seems to be working good, 4-spider FTW!

gorgeous
How is it feels driving again?

Feels WAY better with the 4-spider, no jerkiness, no binding, no excessive drivetrain noise.

Today also marks my 9 year anniversary with the car

Looks really nice wingless.

Congrats on the anniversary. BTW where did the front lip go ?

Agreed!



Thanks! I just haven't put it back on. The roads are horrible here right now, I honestly don't think I could leave my street with how much the culvert at the end has heaved up with it on.

It's fantastic that this thread is almost 10 years old!

I just realised that it almost made 20 years with that car. I bought it in Oct'97 with 107,000 on it.

I'll post the sad fate of Drifty (couldn't think of better name and here's a picture to go with it) but here are some happy memory pics:










The Nurple:

And I too, got my very own purple people eater.

Brian's old 1990 AWD.

LUCIAN!!! you're the one eh! Damn guys.. I need a place to store cars lol...
Congrats guys!

Purple power! First drive the other night after the head gasket failure 3 weeks ago.

Jason in with the 3rd purple DSM in a row hahah Looks good man!

Seeing as there are so many purple DSM's in a row, I will be the streak killer with my white 1999 GSX

When I first bought the Eclipse back in April 2012 off Tim Sedore



After years of blowing turbos, engines, headaches, and countless late nights in the garage, I wouldn't change it for any other car.







Sporting a fresh new engine bay paint job by Lucian and firewall tag by Mr. Drew over at Woodside Customs.

Damn I forgot what it looked like the day you got it. It's come such a long way!
