Original QikQbn Eclipse GSX

In the 1990's I was heavy in to the Fast and Furious scene.  I owned 4 Mitsubishi Eclipses.

1990 GS, 1992 GS-T , 1994 GSX,  1997 GSX.  I modified all of them in some way .

The Turbo models were obviously the ones that became my obsession.

Here is a quick story and look at my Pride and Joy from my DSM (Diamond Star Motors)days.

A 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX All Wheel Drive.

I purchased this car brand new as a 2.0 liter turbo charged 4cylinder that made

210 hp and 200 lbs of torque stock.  Stock performance was 0-60 mph in 6.3 and

1/4 mile of 15.0 @ 95 mph.  After a hobbie that turned into a mental illness this

car would go through major engine modifications with larger turbos and exhaust

system that reached a climax of close to 475 horsepower and 450 lbs of torque.

This car saw a best of 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds and quater mile times of

11.7 @ 120 mph and a top speed of 180 mph.

I Sold this car back in 2004.  Wish I knew what happened to it.  It was an awesome car!
