so i beat that 98 eclipse GS :)

he wanted to go for it so we raced. i didnt think i was going to win, i was amazed. he has intake, and a muffler. i have I/H/E, i didnt even use vtec. i took him off the start and just pulled away :) he couldnt believe it either 2.0 dohc or 1.6 sohc what would u think? thats what i thought at first too, but i was at least 2 car lengths ahead teh whole time. :) i <3 my honda

yea the GS is not that fast i took one with my CRX by far... Cocky Eclipse guys... and i only had a sohc non v-tec... lol people these days

No offense, but the guy with the eclipse must not be able to drive. My stock 96 Eclipse GS will spank my friends Civic with Y8 all day long. And he has 15"s and I have 17"s. I know for a fact he can drive a stick good, plus my Civic vs my Eclipse I can tell a big difference. The gearing just feels so much better on my Eclipse.

his eclipse is auto.

Nice kill. The GS Eclipse is too heavy (2800lbs) for a 140hp engine.
I've never heard anyone call any N/A Eclipse "fast" - especially an auto.

When im at the track i see eclipses run 18's all day. They are very heavy cars with to small of a motor. I beat 2 turbo'd eclipes with my 240sx. They both had FMIC and all that good turbo stuff.

I have seen alot of 4th gens walk all over gs's. i have even bagged a few myself. I got beat on a freeway race though. I think that they are better geared for high speeds than my zc tranny

ahh, the joy of having a light car :wink:

ya they are pretty slow ive raced 2 in my civic beat both of them adn my clutch was goin out non turbo auto eclipse would be a walk in the park
