Calling Out 4Tun8 Racing, & ANYBODY Else, For That Matter....
Alright 4Tun8, here's what's up; we just got around to finishing up my buddies '95 GSX Eclipse, just some minor tuning remains, but it should be ready to go (hopefully) by the weekend, next weekend the latest. You up for a little 4G63 vs 4G63? This isn't an arrogant challenge, I actually like your videos bro, and wanna meet you, and that car of yours. The Eclipse doesn't have 'that' much work done to it, so it won't be too much of a slaughter on our part lol....
You down bro....?

Sure I'm down bro.....what size turbo is the GSX running?

^ Turbo isn't that much bigger than stock. Few more mods were added, along with some additional tuning. Got to go to work today but when I get back, I'll try to have some pics of the car along w/some engine shots, as well as a brief synopsis of the work that was done in a whole. The car is a sleeper in every sense of the word (save for the 18" chrome rims), so nobody should be expecting to see any body kits and such....
Was hoping to wrap this damn project up before August, but our work schedules demanded otherwise. We were chasing some little gremlin for the longest time (the coil was only firing two cylinders at one point). Coil was changed, and $180.00 dollars later, it did absolutely nothing. Then called on my cousin Gaspar to get involved, and it was fixed in a matter of seconds. Damn Cam Angle Sensor was shot....
Between you and me, I don't know how you guys put up with these engine bays. My freaking fingers are really messed up from PRYING that damn belt on and off, on and off, of those f-ing cam sprockets (no room to reach the belt tensioner, let alone the belts cover bolts themselves lol). Before anyone asks, I was too freaking lazy and tired to drag the engine lift all the way to Middlesex Township from Old Bridge....
The car has not been taken to the track since all of the mods, and the only real "test" we have to go on is SOP, and the fact that it will rape the hell out of his other manual '07 Eclipse (with the '07 Eclipse averaging low to mid 14's in the quarter mile this past summer over @ Englishtown). I'm positive that this is going to be an awesome race between the two of you guys, and as far as driving experience, Tony's been racing manuals for years, and has had this GSX since '95, original owner....

^ No problemo, although, this puts an end to the finale of you and me clashing heads though lol (wanted to get the ZO6 and your Evo going at it for the LSX'ers here to enjoy). Don't want to put too many miles on the car, as I try to keep it as local as possible. There's always a next time though....
I'm outta here, gotta get my @ss to work. Exit, stage left lol....

I'm like a little over 100 miles from Old Bridge I think....wouldn't be TOO many miles IMO.
Although, I don't think my car is any match for a c6 z06, maybe with race gas, but I'd get pounded on pump gas

Well I could probably scrounge up a few more fast imports and maybe you could scrounge a few more domestics and maybe we could make a REALLY cool video or something.
Something to think about.

What are you guys using to tune it?
edit: And the firebird with HUGE turbos is sinister, but I still fear the stock Z06.
