I've never raced a turbo eclipse but I've raced a 2000 non turbo and man those things are slow. I know i put at least 5 car lengths between us, most likely more than that. The way I see it, if a car HAS TO HAVE turbos to be fast, why buy it. Buy a car thats already fast n/a and put the same turbo on it and you'll beat everything. Just my opinion.

put the same turbo on your v6 stang that the eclipse had and you'll kick his *** into the ground.

Hey gsxkilla calm down. This site is normally filled with eucated people and you come on here trash talking everyone. Go somewhere else if you are gonna do that.

good point midnite.

well i can tell yeah that i really do not pay much attention to anything thats runs 15sand i would have to agree that if you want to drag then get a v8 and go smoke that little ***** with a stock 5.0.there is nothing i hate more than a rice burner with an attitude:mad:.but hey you know what if you like the car for just the body style thats cool but if you are going to beef it up get the muscle cause there is nothing better sounding than a ford v8 with flowmasters.

Unit wades through the BS
 

Re: Got smoked by a 2000 Eclipse
 

Please tell me you dont have 18" *Daytons*
:confused: :rolleyes:

ok man i dont know why my car is as fast as it is im not dreaming it isnt normal now i was suprised when it ran it!! now the only thing it has is that they took the heater out the person that had it before me (god knows why??) so it sucks to drive when its real cold but anyways i know what would give a lil more hp...now if u dont believe me i really dont care if u want to come down to missouri and want to take it to the track i will even let u drive it ok??

"StoplightWarrior" posted 12.3@111 GT

Please excuse my stupidity but how are you able to achieve 12.3 @111 in a 2000gt.

Do you have some type of air induction system? what is "Tornado Air Management System" is that what is getting you so much power?

I have a 99GT and with all my mods I am just able to get to 13.687.


.................................................. ...............................................

Mustang 99GT
Under drive pulleys, subframes, 3.73, sport Lowering springs, strut tower brace, caster/camber plates, rear sway bar, tokiko illumina adjustable shocks/struts, upper&lower rear control arms, timing adjuster, 245x17 Michelin pilot, high performance brake pads,k&n filter (no silencer, no spare tire).

13.67's
 

Maybe your only running 13.6's because most of your mods are suspension ones. you need somewhere between 370 to 400 hp ina full weight gt to run 12s

if i had a gt id start off with 4.10 gears, a cold airintake, pulleys, a computer chip, 70mm thb.

just my opinion

ok ok ok . QUIT RAGGIN ON SILVERV6! In ONE of the mustang magazines i saw a V6 with 350 hp! all of you dissing the V6 Stangs GET A LIFE-----> gsxkilla <------ I read that SilverV6 was going to trade in his car. or buy a new one. Maybe he didnt have the money at the time to buy the GT.

NIK

I believe Stoplights sig is a joke. He changed it a couple weeks ago. I can't remember what he runs, it's not in the 12's. I know his sig is a joke. If you want to see what he has really done go here:

StoplightWarrior's Car

Stoplight, feel free to correct me here man :)

If your putting down the V6's what do you think of the 4cly. stangs? A car is a car regardless the power it has, I respect anyone that has there own ride and can honestly say I worked hard to earn it. I have just as much as respect for someone with a v6 mustang as a v8. Not everyone can afford to buy a GT like listed. You should be happy that he bought a V6 Mustang appose to going to buy a Civic straped on a big fart pipe and bad mouthing stangs like most ricers. I got a 351 in my car so should I rag on you cause you have a 302? Engine size, car type, engine mods. It doesn't matter, it's how you appreciate your car and treat it and respect others that drive there own vehicle.

"95mustanggt" thanks for the reply, I guess "StoplightWarrior" has one of those "GHOST" cars that we see sometimes in these forums:D

"SixShooter00" you do have a point here, most people start their upgrades with the engine, I see them a lot @ the track slipping their tires all over the place, my suspension allows my tires to stick to the ground (better take-off) compare to the stock stangs.

I am finally done with my suspension and now I will concentrate in getting a X-pipe and a cat-back system, my car will be paid in one year and my boss (the wife) already approved for me to buy a turbo...man I can wait

;)

ok im not saying i dont respect people that have v-6 mustangs i just get mad when i drive around town and i get 15 v-6 mustangs trying to race me when im just driving 10 miles there like ***holes everyones got one

TURBO Rocket99gt
 

Rocket99gt what kind of turbo kit are you going to get?
And have you decided what stage?

laterz

v-6 mustangs make me nut in my pants!!
ryan

Thats the spirit
 

I new you didnt mean all those bad things you were saying about v6s gxkilla, just keep it in your pants.

jk

ryan, don't get too pissed at those V6 mustangs, they are the ones that keep our production number high and keep the money rolling in at Team Mustang. That ensures we don't get the axe like the Camero and Firebird!

I ignore most V6 mustangs when they get all hot and want to race me, but I do race them 'cause it's more of a challenge than a civic or integra and hey alot of the guys that I know who converted from V6 to V8 "got tired of losing to V8's" so they changed.

I just hope I don't come accross any guys like SixShooter00 :)

First of all man My parents dint buy me the car I did I also gave the down payment at that time a v6 was the most I could aford I bougt it 6 months after I graduated.

Im also thinkin that by the end of this year Ill trade it in for a 2000-2001 5speed GT:p

Its been a while I havent been in here but woooow im amazed how many people replied to my post and guys dont get mad at each other I just posted My story that I got beaten by a guy that had a turbo on his Eclipse and now every body is pissed at each other;) :confused:

Laterz


Every body wish me luck so by the end of the year I can get my 5speed GT

Any wayz im not putting any more money on my v6 im gona save so I can put it on my new stang
