car looks great! but geez learn how to take a clear pic! lol!

GTplaya31 · 01/13/2008, 07:31 AM

the camera was taking crapy because of the light all around. *under-xposed* and with the flash it was to dark

3gEclipseRS · 01/13/2008, 09:45 AM

Car looks excellent, very clean. Great job on it, I like the truck too.

04MOJOGT · 01/13/2008, 10:08 AM

Looking good James. Is your back tires bigger than the front? Do you plan on ever putting a lip on it?

HIJACKER · 01/13/2008, 10:31 AM

Umm.. your thread title is wrong. Should be 2008.

HomieG · 01/13/2008, 10:46 AM

looks good. nice work

Clipse3GT · 01/13/2008, 10:49 AM

Looks good and clean, keep up the good work.

ya im planin on doing the SS kit. man rich never calls me back about his sides. can you call him and see whats up.

thex everyone for the comments

travion · 01/13/2008, 03:38 PM

looks good man....the same paint scheme i want to go with first time seeing it on an actual 3g most have the side painted black with the roof.

untitled · 01/13/2008, 04:04 PM

So is that sub in the wheel well?

Does it hit well?

I'm planning on doing that and then placing a small cage like metal cover over it for protection. I don't want to lose my trunk space just for a sub.

Looks good.

Bacontk · 01/13/2008, 06:15 PM

Looks good. I would suggest painting the area behind the center grill black. It looks so much cleaner when no white is behind it. Check out my members ride for reference if needed.

Looks good.

their is a enclosed box below it, soo the sub is in a box. its hits ok but io never turn it on really. mostly for looks.

04MOJOGT · 01/13/2008, 08:10 PM

Thats exactly the set up i want with my sub. I can never get in touch with Rich either. Ill try though.

GTplaya31 · 01/13/2008, 08:46 PM

i can do it to your too bro really easy.

crpearce · 01/13/2008, 10:43 PM

Very clean 3G. Great work so far. Have you thought of putting a lip kit on it? I think that would look awesome!

spyder0327 · 01/14/2008, 02:56 AM

wow uve cleaned the engine bay up since i left and i see u still have the seats i gave u

Special_K · 01/14/2008, 06:39 AM

Wow, I would get rid of those night shots. They are super blurry. Car looks nice tho.

GTplaya31 · 01/15/2008, 06:58 AM

thx ill take off the blurry pics

ARACHNO · 01/15/2008, 12:47 PM

car looks good man, very clean. lip kit will finish it off perfectly. Get some more videos up of your exhaust setup.

GTplaya31 · 01/15/2008, 03:48 PM

videos of exhaust my kinda sucks. its a really deep tone. too bad my ripp car kinda rasp in high RPMs.

ARACHNO · 01/15/2008, 04:21 PM

dang i never saw that last video, yeah the ripps do have some rasp to it. but it still has a mean sound to it.

GTplaya31 · 01/15/2008, 04:53 PM

thx bro i just made those last 2 videos today

2fast2furious · 01/15/2008, 08:50 PM

car looks great, good job man

JAGGEDECLIPSE · 01/15/2008, 09:25 PM

car is looking great man, same goes for the wifes truck!!

Inferno · 01/15/2008, 10:06 PM

You need to work on holding the camera still.

I dig the black and red theme under the hood, nice work.

Chato · 01/15/2008, 10:13 PM

Nice ride. By the way I love the way your valve cover looks.

crpearce · 01/15/2008, 10:17 PM

The exhaust doesn't sound bad at all. Very nice.

GTplaya31 · 01/16/2008, 12:38 PM

better video

FstrThnLfe02 · 01/16/2008, 01:49 PM

Way to press the gas with your hand

. The car is looking sick, man. I can't wait to see it with a kit. If you do the SS kit, consider getting it molded. It makes a huge difference. Especially on white.

GTplaya31 · 01/16/2008, 02:03 PM

you didn't kno i drive with my hands!

ARACHNO · 01/16/2008, 02:09 PM

not bad not bad, i wonder how it would sound with invidia. car looks awesome man

GTplaya31 · 01/16/2008, 02:44 PM

let me bolt yours up and well find out

FstrThnLfe02 · 01/16/2008, 03:51 PM

I just photoshopped this. I had a little time on my hands. It isn't the best photoshop, but you get the idea.

GTplaya31 · 01/16/2008, 04:03 PM

omg i love it!!! im doing that next now lol i was going to build the motor but thats next.

just order this bad boy

FstrThnLfe02 · 01/16/2008, 06:22 PM

hell yeah. do the kit first. then build the motor and boost it... well if thats the direction you are going.

WesGT · 01/16/2008, 07:04 PM

Hey man car looks awsome I love your engine! The car sounds good and its awsome that you actually made a video, not to many people do that around here. Where did you order that cap from?

Eclipse3Gfly · 01/16/2008, 07:14 PM

next cotm

looking really good

crpearce · 01/16/2008, 09:52 PM

Definitely go with the kit. That will finish off the exterior very nicely. What plans do you have for the engine?

luckydawg3 · 01/16/2008, 10:13 PM

Nice. Your Eclipse looks better than mine did. I have a new car now, that would smoke your car. Let me know what you have been up too man. Later Jason

spyder0327 · 01/17/2008, 08:32 AM

GTplaya31 · 01/17/2008, 12:23 PM

bbuchho90 · 01/17/2008, 01:02 PM

DCeclipse · 01/17/2008, 01:48 PM

Nice car bro!!! put the kit on....

GTplaya31 · 01/18/2008, 09:01 AM

thx bro lip kit going on next tho.my wife says im not getting anything till her truck get some TLC.

rippedeclipse · 01/19/2008, 07:55 PM

very nice car

GTplaya31 · 01/22/2008, 07:32 AM

thx bro. i wish i could have your sds tho

ARACHNO · 01/22/2008, 09:48 AM

WOW that photoshop looks badass!!! amazing. Looks like its actually on the car. Definately do that!!! and I am convinced, I am going to get the new Ripp headers. After hearing them on NCSPYDERGT's and yours, I know they are going to sound awesome. I think it sounds great with the invidia. Plus they rebuilt them, the new ones look great. I bet the power is nice.

04MOJOGT · 01/22/2008, 09:54 AM

I just noticed the Videos of your car. It sounds good. HMmmm

GTplaya31 · 01/22/2008, 05:12 PM

ya bro it sounds better in person man. and i wanna come to char and get those sides.

ARACHNO · 01/23/2008, 09:31 AM

hey i have a quick suggestion. Look at the radiator cap. Peel off that orange sticker and use like some goo gone to get rid of the glue/residue and it will reveal a slightly polished radiator cap. Its a quick, priceless mod. Makes the engine bay look better. Its all about the small details. Takes about 30 seconds total.

xxtrurida75xx · 01/23/2008, 08:09 PM

nice car looks good

GTplaya31 · 01/25/2008, 03:51 PM

thx for the comments, i did the radiator cap today

EclipseCRO · 01/25/2008, 09:22 PM

Nice ride I got a question how does that sub work for you?...and rattles anywhere I Have been thinking of doing something like that.

04MOJOGT · 01/25/2008, 10:45 PM

I really Really want that sub set up. We need to get together so you can show me how to do that.
