What did you do to the 3G today? - Club3G Forum : Mitsubishi Eclipse 3G Forums

Supkylesup · 02/20/2012, 10:46 AM

Hey guys i started one of these threads at my other forum and it took off pretty well.
I figured id give it a shot here and see where it goes.
So as the title says "What did you do to your 3G today?"
Post your mods or even simple repairs.
It'll be fun to check in and see what everyone did today and maybe get some ideas from everyone.

This thread is alot more interesting if pics are included so keep that in mind.

ill start it off with my random tinkering i accomplished today.
Made a simple custom CIA.
Nothing fancy my stock intake set up was cracked and taking up too much room.

Relocated my coolant resevior.

So lets see what you guys got...

SidIsOnFire · 02/20/2012, 10:55 AM

I looked at my cancer black 3G with disgust as I always do. The paint is horrid. Been using it as a winter car although we haven't had much of a winter at all.

505eclipse · 02/20/2012, 11:08 AM

Drove it. took out my subs last night so i could actually have a trunk

I feel you on that one. My black Spyder is in the garage for the winter (though I drive it when the weather is decent, like last night), but when the warm weather comes I will want to drive it more, even with the cancer. I can't see it from the driver seat.

This morning I bought a cruise control switch, and this afternoon I bought a power antenna, both from Members of this site. ETA on the paint job is unknown.

ccarrillo717 · 02/20/2012, 05:20 PM

White Knight · 02/20/2012, 05:25 PM

Hysteria FTW · 02/20/2012, 05:29 PM

Hard to do much when my cars been on the hoist for 2 months...

chavezeclipse · 02/20/2012, 06:34 PM

jaloosk · 02/20/2012, 06:36 PM

I installed my Sundown 1200w amplifier, rewired the sub to 1-ohm and fixed a corroded speaker cable in the driver's door.

ADRIENNE · 02/20/2012, 06:37 PM

I debated about taking off the battery cover but then decided to just take a nap.

soundman98 · 02/20/2012, 07:47 PM

i let mine take the day off.

S Train · 02/20/2012, 08:34 PM

Not a 3G, but I installed my Wink mirror.

Midnight Ice · 02/20/2012, 09:28 PM

Went through and lubed up the shifter assembly; then after some highway abuse I topped off the tank (damn gas prices gonna break me). Also found a leak in my radiator hose, going to get that replaced ASAP.

I watched it sit in the sun today while I worked.

Hysteria FTW · 02/21/2012, 10:51 AM

Got engine ready for drop in

Kevin Knight · 02/21/2012, 10:47 PM

Making a list of all the parts I'm going to have to buy new to put my car back together so that I can get another 10 years out of him. Bumper, foam bumper, hood, fenders, weather stripping, rugs, center console, dash, and lastly a real black paint job. Going two-tone Black and silver. I'm at about 1,300 before the paint job. Oy Vey.

Silvertune · 02/21/2012, 10:49 PM

Decided to sell my emanage ultimate. Gazed mournfully at the local hotspot as I drove by after class to go pick up some Wendy's.

jaloosk · 02/21/2012, 10:51 PM

Rattled the living hell out of it with my new toy, then ordered 30 sqft of Damplifier Pro.

Ericsmiller88 · 02/22/2012, 12:01 AM

I ripped apart my car to do my timing, sanded the front bumper and fenders
prepping for some brand new black paint... those damn cancer spots were an eye sore

i plan on cleaning up the engine a little bit, painting the valve cover and what not lol
make it look decent underneath

Be sure to get some before and after pics... my hood and bumper need a total repaint, the top of the fenders and trunk lid are spotty.

HA! Like that's gonna happen...

Forgiveness is always easier to get than permission, trust me. Been married for 15 years this coming May.

Or, you could do this: Promise your wife that for every dollar you spend in car audio, you'll put a dollar into a jewellery fund for her. Once your done the system in the car, blow "her" money on something shiny, sparkly and expensive.

Marriage is as much about management as it is compromise.

Mattt · 02/22/2012, 03:09 PM

Sprayed the rotors for the brembo swap...

I agree, just celebrated 10 in September. "Look dear, it is compatible with your iPhone, so you can listen to YOUR music."

Today I think I am going to do the Seafoam treatment on the car, it worked wonders on the truck. Approaching my first year with the car, and I think the previous owner neglected it pretty bad. I would be surprised if they ever put > 87 in the gas tank. Found a receipt when I first bought it that was for like $3.00 in gas.

SmoothGt · 02/22/2012, 03:59 PM

i replaced my rear speakers finally, i was scared to for so long bc it seemed like a hassle..lol but its done =) and i actually feel accomplished lol

SvenHoek · 02/22/2012, 05:01 PM

Well it was a slow day at the shop today, so I decided to change my timing belt, water pump, and accessory belts. Oh, and make a new boot screen for my stereo.

I know it's not my Eclipse, but yesterday was a little slow as well (stupid small towns); so I decided to swap out the factory Infinity crap stereo in the shop van with a double din DVD/NAV and eight new component speakers.

Original:

Process with cutting, shaping and filling etc:

And the hacked OS Load screen I made for this one too:

ToqirM · 02/22/2012, 09:29 PM

What did I do to my 3g today? Well I looked at it and then turned away with sadness in my heart.

chris_eclipse · 02/22/2012, 09:59 PM

I replaced my spark plugs, wires, cap, and rotor only to find out that wasn't my problem.

Ericsmiller88 · 02/23/2012, 10:30 PM

finished the timing, put everything back on except the splash guard and the tire
then its off to finish prepping my car for paint
bought some foglights too.. gonna try to hook those up tomorrow morning

Hysteria FTW · 02/23/2012, 11:14 PM

Got the engine and everything hooked up. Just need to throw on exhaust, tires, hood and splash gaurd! Then I will have my stocker back, with way too much time invested in it!

guido8000 · 02/24/2012, 02:54 PM

today i checked to see if my phenolic manifold spacer is going on the car or in the trash. If the EGR pipe doesn't bolt up Ima chop the thing in half. Too many problems trying to mod this thing.

KiLLaCaT · 02/24/2012, 06:47 PM

New headlights installed today!

Recently debadged, the turn signals (and side marker/reverse lights) were blacked out, and the plastic fake vent pieces were painted black.

Michael3g · 02/24/2012, 10:44 PM

Put new weels on her, waxed, detailed interior, Ordered angel glow gauges, led interior lights, led plate light, new wheel bearings, coilovers, and my club 3G rear side window stickers.

Sent from my Autoguide iPhone app

skinnyGT · 02/25/2012, 05:08 PM

I cleaned out the interior of mine for the first time since 2009. Found about $50 in change and two of my missing socks. Took about 4 hours to vacuum, clean the windows, and shine up the interior plastics. I bet if I removed the seats I could find another $20.

chavezeclipse · 02/25/2012, 05:38 PM

went to the meet, modified cold air intake for colder air. now that i have a 4 banger intake manifold time to add that to my list of things to do. too bad all day tomorrow is dedicated to collecting calipers. hopefully i will find a good amount and be able to get a kit or two done.

MrOnTime · 02/25/2012, 06:33 PM

I took apart the console all the way to the dash. I also took apart the automatic shifter housing and washed that dirty little flap of plastic in there and then painted the housing black.

Nyb0y · 02/25/2012, 06:56 PM

I washed the hell outta mine

Supadupa · 02/25/2012, 07:01 PM

I found a rockin mechanic who opened up his shop to me to be used anytime (thank god for the kindness in some peoples heart) and we swapped my drums for disk brakes, finally.

I would show you the pics I took but I left my camera as collateral untill I pay him in the next few days. I will be posting those pics soon.

MrOnTime · 02/25/2012, 07:18 PM

I also made an armrest cover..

chavezeclipse · 02/26/2012, 12:23 PM

after an awesome day at the junkyard i got a pair of diamante calipers, a pair of rear 3000gt calipers, a pair of front 3000gt vr4 brembo calipers, and a stock turbo in pretty good condition from a 96 gs-t

you got out of their lookin pretty with all that in hand.

Are you selling any of the dual piston calipers?

chavezeclipse · 02/26/2012, 06:42 PM

that set of dual piston already has an owner as well as the rears. now the 4 piston brembo's are up, but i have a buyer interested who has first dibs with money ready. now the turbo has no home yet. next sunday i am going to do a long day trip with more $ and hopefully get 2 more pair of diamante and 2 more pairs of 3000gt.

grfft3r · 02/26/2012, 07:00 PM

What offset do you need in order for the 3kgt calipers to clear?

I believe GTSPeru has 3kGT brakes without spacers on GTS wheels. I'll look around though.

Mattt · 02/26/2012, 07:08 PM

Ah hah!...

grfft3r · 02/26/2012, 07:16 PM

Nice... thank Matt. I would probably go that route, though I haven't compared the costs of it to an Evo brembo set-up. But for sure it'll cost less, I'd like to know at least the margin between them.

shdwdragn · 02/26/2012, 08:01 PM

I was going to install new struts, springs, front control arms, and do a rear disc conversion but then the allen hole on one of my front sway bar links decided to strip out and halted the whole process...

Found about $50 in change and two of my missing socks. Took about 4 hours to vacuum, clean the windows, and shine up the interior plastics. I bet if I removed the seats I could find another $20.

I would show you the pics I took but I left my camera as collateral untill I pay him in the next few days. I will be posting those pics soon.
