mid 90's model eclipse gs vs 00 v6 stang

Sam'sWildStang · April 24th, 2007, 02:22 PM

buddy from radford came down yesterday with his new car, (new for him mid 90's model) eclipse gs with intake, exhaust, sts, and venom chip. only mod i have is cai. we do 40 mph roll three times. first go he gets a small jump but second i catch up and pass, and pull away in thrid. he complains of stripping third so we go again. this time we both get a nice jump but i pull and third i pull away. he begs for one more shot so we get to 40 and go before i get to third he drops back. we pull into cvs and i ask what happened, and he had stripped third gear completely out. i cant wait to go against him after he fixes it, but unless third gear is his trump card, then i still have him beat.

1st and 2nd gen DSMs are all 4-cylinders, with an optional turbo-4 (4G63). The non-turbo 4 is the same as the base model neon motor.

Basically for eclipse/talon/lasers, if it's not turbo AWD, it's crap.

HEY! i take offense to that lol. From a dig, pretty much true tho. FWD = bald tires once boost hits in 1st and 2nd.

oh and if it's a gs you should have him beat anyways. that would be my guess. i wouldnt worry about it too much.

Odd, I thought TSi was Eaglese for GSX, and they had a different trim-level that was equivalent to the GST?

TSI is either FWD or AWD, but not always AWD. i had a TSI FWD, and yea that bitch would burn rubber like it was nothing once it boosted

GST was FWD Turbo and GSX was AWD Turbo

Correct me if im wrong, i owned one a year ago and dont remember all the specs.
