Unless you saying no pics of the engine bay means its all stock then first get a cold air or short ram intake.
Happy Modding!!

Yep. Injen sticker isn't for nothing

And for the wheels and drop, blah I just need the fundage, then it's all good.

GTEclipse17 · 06/02/2008, 12:20 AM

love the fogs man and the interior led change, especially the clock pod. I still need to do the led's as well...one of these days. Its a nice start, keep it clean.

wright06jhs · 06/02/2008, 01:16 AM

nice looking car, great start too. Oh and for future reference the color is Steel blue pearl...i had a 03 GTS the same color.
Great color choice

Yeah, it's a pretty simple mod and costs like ~$15 worth of LED's, and about an hour of work to do.

Haha, yeah I saw your Galant thread and then looked for your car. And man I feel bad for what happened to it. Anyways, if there was some way I could change the thread title, I would for obvious reasons. Anyone know how?

Eclipse03GS · 06/02/2008, 11:36 AM

Good Start! Keep up the great work!

I dont think theres any way to change it but i just wanted to let you know the actual name of the color because its a great color
Good luck with the car tho!

Sh4d0wX7 · 06/05/2008, 05:00 PM

I just got some DEPO reverse lights for my car and I have a question. What would you suggest I do for some tails? I've always thought the 03 and up stock ones looked fine and I like the fact that they have the orange turn lens versus the red ones and I like that more. But here's the problem: Black contrasts too much with my color (steel blue) and that with the clear reverse lights I just added, it looks kinda funky. Chrome tails are out of the question because that screams rice and they fade terribly. Opinions?
Here's the lights for reference instead of having to scroll back up to look:

JPflip509 · 06/05/2008, 09:44 PM

looks exactly like mine except the led interior change...
nice stuff man! i dont hav the funds just like u but still got tint, headunit, clear corners and intake haha

Jruberti · 06/05/2008, 11:33 PM

wooT! love the color

its the same color as mine

Flash Blue Pearl FTW

GTclipse01 · 06/06/2008, 03:27 AM

rims, drop, debadge the "RS". For once I'm going to say stick with the stock tails/headlights, I can't see black projectors or TYCs working well with the color and aftermarket chrome lights look like shit.

GTclipse01 · 06/06/2008, 03:28 AM

Also, a chrome 5-piece grill could really add to the theme you have going.

Yeah, I was thinking about getting a Mr. Grille grille. They're like $80 and look sweet. I probably plan on getting chrome Sonar's for the headlights, because my stock reflectors are just too dim. My fogs are 2x brighter than my headlights. I could literally drive with just those on.

00TampaBlueGT · 06/06/2008, 07:32 AM

Looks good so far man. Definitly needs wheels and a drop!

Tearstone · 06/06/2008, 08:18 AM

The color of your car is "Steel blue pearl"

Flash Blue is like Superman blue: Flash Blue '02 RS

Well if a mod could change the thread title for me that'd be great. I can't or I would have when I figured out I was wrong about the color.

Tearstone · 06/06/2008, 11:55 AM

Done

alfbocanegra · 06/06/2008, 12:05 PM

Nice Job, I love a clean ride no matter what color is (I prefere black).

ardy4066 · 06/07/2008, 12:44 AM

do you want some megan racing headers cause im selling mine. if you intrested pm me.

Jordan777er · 06/07/2008, 02:59 PM

Good start man, and I feel you on the lack of fundage. Tech eats up every last penny I scrape up haha. We should see how many people are in Shreveport/Bossier and have a mini-meet or something...

Hah, hell yeah man. I'm going to Tech starting Fall 08. We should definitely hang or something.

Sh4d0wX7 · 07/09/2008, 10:13 PM

Well, I finally got my blue conversion done. Anyone recommend something to fix the hotspots? If not, that's fine. I'll just re-sand it with some even finer grit paper.

Jordan777er · 07/10/2008, 02:45 AM

Did you try the polish remover? It only took one try with that and they were good.

Looks nice man.

Hey, I've got a some of the same stuff I used to make my grille left from when I made mine. Its more than enough to make another. You can have it if you want it. That way it'll only cost about $4(or however much the zip ties cost) instead of $80

send me a pm on where you're at in town. I'd like to see it if possible.

Sh4d0wX7 · 12/14/2008, 10:37 PM

Well, just got a set of projectors. Used, but in great condition. Here's some pics, they are in the main group in the first post too. No, they are not HID yet, the camera made it look like it..

I will probably get a 4300k HID kit for my birthday in March, then I'll see what these things can really do.

Mister_Bishi · 12/14/2008, 10:46 PM

Nice

wright06jhs · 12/14/2008, 10:49 PM

Still looking good buddy! keep up the good work.

Jordan777er · 12/15/2008, 07:34 AM

Looks good, I'm sure the cell pics don't do them justice. I'll have to swing by and see them in person sometime this week.

jstewart92 · 12/15/2008, 03:15 PM

I have the same color, 03' GS,
I was wondering the names of your:
Headlights, clear corners, and the reverse lights.

And/or where you got them, that would be much appreciated,
Also the LED change... i need to do that really badly to mine... Um, i know of 2 how-to threads on that, (one with pics, one without), any help???
But anyway, the Needles... how do those get fixed so they light up??? I've heard people talk about a couple things... like Nail polish remover, white out, etc. but i have no idea, being most LED swaps are to red.

Sh4d0wX7 · 12/16/2008, 06:27 PM

^^^^^ I don't even know if I wanna answer that.

Thanks for the comments so far guys.

*sigh just follow the how-to's exactly and you won't have a problem. You can get the LEDs from here. There is also a bulb size chart stickied on here somewhere, just search for it.

Also, if you look at the very first post, you will see that he listed every thing he has done to this car.

Pace187 · 03/07/2009, 11:24 PM

looks good man, swao those amber bulbs to the bright white led bulbs to match the headlights, and how did you mount the hella's?

They're in the bumper with some holes I drilled. I'm actually in the process of re-doing the bolts used cause they almost fell out

. I'll see if I can get some pics from up under there tomorrow. And as for the headlights, I'm about to get some 5000k HID's for the depo's.

yea if you could deffinitly grab me some pics, my new bumper will be here monday and il send it right to my paint guy so hopefully by the weekend everythings here and ready to go in, And for your headlights, match your turn signal bulbs to whatever color your headlights are, it cleans the look up a ton at night.

Sh4d0wX7 · 03/07/2009, 11:48 PM

Eh, I don't like the look of white turn signal bulbs. Every time I see another car with white led bulbs or something else in there, I can't see it; amber I can.

No_one21 · 03/07/2009, 11:54 PM

Is there any better way to get your gauge pins back in and calibrated than just driving at the same speed as a friend? It just seems unsafe and annoying.

I didn't do that. When I put my needles back in, I let the car warm up for ~5 mins or to make sure the temp would be even and such. So I put that back in as close to the middle as I could. The gas one I marked off before I removed it so I'd know where to put it back on at. As for the spedo and tach, I put the tach as close to 700 rpm as I could guess and the spedo, I held the red part against the pin that holds it up from falling after the car is off (which is 0 MPH) and then pushed it back on. I've done some checks (like the riding next to a friend, and a radar gun

) and it's accurate.

No_one21 · 03/08/2009, 12:18 AM

Thank you, I REALLY did not want to go through that other process. Erep to you sir.

I have an OBDII scantool that i used to make sure the RPM's and speedo were correct, but that's not an option for everyone i guess. If you have a Sporty, then the tranny shifts into 4th gear at exactly 30 MPH. Jackstand the car, and keep sticking the needle on until it shifts into 4th at 30 MPH. When the car is warmed up, stick the RPM needle on between the 500 and 1000 mark, but a little more towards the 500 mark

No_one21 · 03/08/2009, 01:25 PM

It shifts into 4th at 30mph? That can't be right, at all.... Unless you mean just holding the pedal down in D...

Sh4d0wX7 · 03/08/2009, 05:38 PM

Yes, the timestamp is wrong. They were taken today (3/8/09)

Some new pics as I was finishing up on the Hella's. They almost fell out

Yes, it desperately needs a wash and polishing. I'll do that in a couple of weeks around my birthday. Video of exhaust coming up soon. I'll post it when it's done uploading here and in the SP2 thread in PR\O.

Sh4d0wX7 · 03/08/2009, 06:01 PM

Soundclip of the GReddy SP-2. I've been meaning to do this for months ever since I put it on in the summer.

Sh4d0wX7 · 03/30/2009, 08:35 PM

Some newer pics after being washed and polished. Nothing has changed, HID's in a few days.

Dad next to the 3G

One of my favorites

Yeah, dent is obvious, but oh well. People have no respect, no matter how far you park away from the place you're going.

A rock hit there, if you're wondering. That day sucked.

xicarusx · 03/31/2009, 11:19 AM

She looks good man. I wish I had someone to help me wash and wax. That ding form some asshole hitting you with a door. Yea I have one on each side of mine. I seriously hate people!! Mine are not really noticable thank god.

Jordan777er · 04/05/2009, 07:54 PM

Did you ever get your lights working? Me and you both need some wheels, sideskirts, and a spoiler lol.

Sh4d0wX7 · 04/05/2009, 10:25 PM

Yeah I did. (You were there

) And yeah, we need some of that ground effects going on.

jstewart92 · 04/05/2009, 10:35 PM

ewww sorry about my noob post up there. Car is looking good though.
I've yet to decide exactly what i want to do with mine.
I think a nice grille would finish up the front nicely.

edit~ just wondering, do you have tan headliner? and are you planning on going black with it?

Sh4d0wX7 · 04/05/2009, 11:35 PM

Yeah it's tan. I'm not that worried about it ATM, but Jordan777er made his black. As him if you wanna know more about how he did it.

Sh4d0wX7 · 04/16/2009, 09:33 PM

Here's some new pics of the tails and a couple of crappy pictures of the HID's. I'll get better pics of those eventually. I got a really slammin' deal for the TYC's, and yes, they're real, not knock-offs (you can tell by that crescent design in the reflector).

Halogen vs HID

Me and Jordan (jordan777er)

Yeah, I need to get that halo fixed in the drivers side Hella, and I need to get a new bulb for my license plate apparently. I just noticed it was out in the pics. Lemme know what you think, now all the lights are aftermarket, and all match.

Tech eats up every last penny I scrape up haha. We should see how many people are in Shreveport/Bossier and have a mini-meet or something...

If not, that's fine. I'll just re-sand it with some even finer grit paper. __________________ Member's Ride Thread: My Steel Blue Pearl

Looks nice man. __________________ Jordan777er's 2002 Titanium Pearl RS "C'est la poêle qui se moque du chaudron"

Here's some pics, they are in the main group in the first post too. No, they are not HID yet, the camera made it look like it.. I will probably get a 4300k HID kit for my birthday in March, then I'll see what these things can really do. __________________ Member's Ride Thread: My Steel Blue Pearl

I'll have to swing by and see them in person sometime this week. __________________ Jordan777er's 2002 Titanium Pearl RS "C'est la poêle qui se moque du chaudron"

And/or where you got them, that would be much appreciated, Also the LED change... i need to do that really badly to mine... Um, i know of 2 how-to threads on that, (one with pics, one without), any help??? But anyway, the Needles... how do those get fixed so they light up??? I've heard people talk about a couple things... like Nail polish remover, white out, etc. but i have no idea, being most LED swaps are to red.

Every time I see another car with white led bulbs or something else in there, I can't see it; amber I can. __________________ Member's Ride Thread: My Steel Blue Pearl

They were taken today (3/8/09) Some new pics as I was finishing up on the Hella's. They almost fell out Yes, it desperately needs a wash and polishing. I'll do that in a couple of weeks around my birthday. Video of exhaust coming up soon. I'll post it when it's done uploading here and in the SP2 thread in PR\O. __________________ Member's Ride Thread: My Steel Blue Pearl Last edited by Sh4d0wX7; 03/08/2009 at 05:44 PM.

Dad next to the 3G One of my favorites Yeah, dent is obvious, but oh well. People have no respect, no matter how far you park away from the place you're going. A rock hit there, if you're wondering. That day sucked. __________________ Member's Ride Thread: My Steel Blue Pearl
