need info on fast and furious eclipse

hey everybody, well im attempting to recreate the green eclipse paul walker drove in the movie, bc i just like the way it looks...you can talk smack about the movie, but i still love that car, so i gotta gsx, 97'. i guess what i need is somebody to help me with extreme details of that car, as far as exact names of every aftermarket part used on it. that would help soooo much, i would really appreciate it. also, ive been a honda person for a while, ive been rebuilding engines and trannys, swaps and whatnot, now im moving to mitsubishi...wouldnt mind if somebody helped me out with telling me some info on the absolute best engine parts...advice about the car itself...like i just need an all around eclipse GOD to guide me...i really appreciate all of your posts, peace~

I thought the eclipse in the movie was a GS with the 2.4? If that's the case then you'll have to go your own route in modifying the drivetrain. As far as body parts go i do not know what was used or the color code they painted it with.

Um... if you really wanted to create it exactly like the movie, ditch the gsx. The one they used in the movie was a gs non turbo, even though they said it was a gsx:nono:

well i realize that it wasnt a gsx, i bought the thing bc its awd turbo...sweet i know...i woulda been disapointed with the 2wd down the road im sure, but neways i can handle the internal work, which why i need somebody to give me hints on the best parts for a aftermarket turbo driven nos spraying motor...about the movie related parts...i just basically need info like....the rims, tires, body kit(which im almost positive is the blitz kit), interior, exterior, engine dress up, the pedals and the shifter...cdplayer/ lcd diagnostic readout, things of that nature...the brand names and all that technical jazz...ya know?

Dont forget the dimond plate floor boards lol

If you're serious about modding your car, then ditch the F&F idea. It's been done, and it's lame.

extremepsi.com has great parts

Alright man, just checking lol. You did the right thing and went with the gsx. Not to be an ass, but I wouldn't really think anyone on this forum would know much about that car since 99% of us are here for performance, not show. I'd do a search on google. There are probably many sites out there with the info you want.

dont hate me guys.... i like that movie... its a "battle-z" body Kit, Konig Rims, Magna flow exhaust, AEM CAI (it IS a non turbo GS, 95 to be exact) the suspention was ebay brand. Toyo ZX tires? that what i got from it anyways, all the hoses are steal braded....even the plug wires...they where painted blue. underglow was made by streetglow...anything else? those Glorious floor mats where also off ebay, umm.....evolution racing i belive... thats all i got right now... working on some Economics stull... i;ll fill you in on more if you need... just ask... you can even PM me if you want. ...DONT HATE ME PLEASE!!! haha

wasnt that a blitz body kit?

wasnt that a blitz body kit?

It always looked like one to me, but i dont look into them much. :dunno:


EDIT---->Here is a link to a pic of the car, looks like its a blitz to me.

When I read the title to this thread...I cringed (so many F&F questions pop up in the DSM forum). When I saw you wanted all the specs so you could remake the F&F eclipse with your GSX...I tried to stick my fingers in the outlet. The more I thought about it though, I think it could be pretty sweet if done right. If you put some serious time and $$ into your car (I'm thinking it will take about 10-15k to do it right) and built yourself an 11 second eclipse that had all the looks of the F&F eclipse, that would be awesome. It would be a great show car and nobody would expect the car to be actually fast.

If the F&F eclipse pulled up next to me, I'd laugh and immediately try racing it. If I lost to it...major kudos.

That said...I have no idea what they put into that car. I'd say you go with mod the exterior and interior according to what you can see in the movie, and build the engine disregarding F&F stuff. Just dress up the engine bay when you are done. I'm on board for helping however I can.

You gota start with the AEM cold air intake, NOS fogger system and Motech Exhaust. Don't forget the stand alone fuel mangment system. And you'll need 10 grand.

Oh, and 2 of the big ones.

dont forget the t-66 turbo bolted to the dc sports header and the direct port nitrous injection

When he pulls out the laptop, what is that program that hes running? DSMLink? I've never seen any program like that unless it's in a movie.

Well, I have this book that includes every detail to every main cars from F&F and F&F2... I don't know why I got it or where, but it was a long time ago and if you really want all the specs here they are...

1995 Eclipse GS
Se7en 18 inch wheels by Axis Sport Tuning Inc.
225/40zR18 Toyo Tires
Robo Car Aero Armor Eclipse kit (consisting of front bumper, side skirts, rear bumper)
Custom made carbon fiber front splitter
Cust GT style roof scoop
ARP two level GT2 style wing
Carbon fiber race mirrors
shaved door handles
1997 spec Eclipse headlights
Streetglow gold series underglow (green)
Greddy Exhaust (doesn't specify which one)
Stillen slotted rear discs
NOS (doesn't specify which kit)

It says in here that its a 4g63T but we all know that we found out otherwise... Clipsekid, do you still have that picture of the motor you brightened up?

It says here that there were no suspension mods and the motor was stock... But yet they claimed oh so many things to be on that motor in the movie... Typical ricer talk. lol

Thats all it says... Kinda gay if you ask me. lol

I agree...but ditch the metal racing wing, that is just crappy...at the very least get the turbo spoiler (unless your gsx is a 97-99 and you already have it.)

Yeah dude, if you go through with this remake, expect shit. The bottom line is you will get lots of crap from lots of people.

www.slowboyracing.com (http://www.slowboyracing.com), www.ebaymotors.com (http://www.ebaymotors.com), and www.dsmtuners.com/classifieds (http://www.dsmtuners.com/classifieds), are my favorite places to get parts. Shop around, you can find some really good deals buying used if you are willing.

Whatever book you got that from is all wrong. First, the car didn't have a front splitter, the rear discs were fake, it had a 420a, and it didn't have shaved handles.

Fight Fight Fight!

just like 90% of movie cars, it was fake, bottom line. If you want something to critize, how about the v6 n/a 3g spyder in 2f2f with a boost gauge and a bov

Just remeber one thing...... I don't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's Winning!!! Ask any REAL streat racer.

Oh yeah. When your car tops out at 140, you'll need two big ones! Because it really don't have anything to do with your gear box.

I think I'm going to go watch that movie upstairs tonight! Havn't seen it in a couple months.

lol, I was thinking the same thing

Take it up with Eddie Paul, the writer of the book. lol

Lose the zero, get with a hero.

I'll say it for everyone else since no one wants to be direct with it. PLEASE don't go fucking up the best model Eclipse EVER by disgracing it with every mod from that movie. If you want to do that so bad I'll trade you my RS and the you can really make it exactly like the movie's car. Just don't go gaying up a poor innocent GSX, it did nothing to deserve it :crying:

dont forget the t-66 turbo bolted to the dc sports header and the direct port nitrous injection

Actually, the eclipse had a t-4 turbo. The three t-66 turbos were what Hector order to go on his three civics along with spoon engines, nos, and a motec system exhaust. Just thought I'd clear that up for anyone that cares. lol.

What does Eddie Paul know? He isn't anyone.

I guess its been a while since I've seen the movie, I'm getting a bit rusty lol

Who the hell is Eddie Paul? :icon16: Just make sure you don't get that nasty hole in 3rd. Tune the NOS timing, and you will run nines!:cwm27:

They kept a 50 gallon barrel of 50 weight for their hondas lol. It kept them from burning to much oil :icon16:

OH...MY...GOD...

mines a z32,

the z31 where from the 80s and came with a single turbo.

Yea, I posted before I read the mods andthen I thought "well this'll be an obvious answer....".

I'm kidna considering getting one of those next, I'll PM you in a sec to get the low down.

Oh my god, an 18 second timeslip. One car I would race in my Cavy and have a fair shot at beating. Thats funny shit.

just to add to the parts site help extremepsi.com is probally the best in prices and there shipping is unbeatable i just got a apexi downpipe and exhaust combo shipped to my door in 2 days for 695

extremepsi is by my house!

i think the thread is done.. although that 18sec timeslip, made me laugh

18 sec......what are hte GS suposed to run stock?

i agree! wtf is that

LOL it's Yiddish (slang Hebrew) for like "oh no", "wow"(in a like stupid way, hard to explain).

Alright man, just checking lol. You did the right thing and went with the gsx.

There are probably many sites out there with the info you want.

no im about performance as well, as somebody else said, itd be pretty sleeper of me to have a f&f car that everyone mocks, and then smoke somebody...thanks man~

you wouldn't smoke anybody... with that wing... it would slow you down.... and that stupid body kit.. might as well say " hey I'm rich look how much money is in my replica car, Don't steal or break my car!" Personally if I saw that car parked next to mine, I would leave a note saying that i put sand in your Oil pan.

itd be pretty sleeper of me

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleeper_%28car%29

your car will be the farthest from thing a sleeper. it may prove alot of people wrong, but it won't be a "sleeper"

When he pulls out the laptop, what is that program that hes running? DSMLink? I've never seen any program like that unless it's in a movie.

Does anybody know?

I seriously doubt its a program at all, probably made for the movie. Besides, damage to exhaust manifold is what it said right? How the fuck will a tuning/logging device know?

I think it just said "warning danger to manifold" and then the rivets on the floor board started poping out

It was the intake manifold. As in too much boost, and the thing is going to pop. :2cents:

As in too much nos.* Heres a demonstration LMAO!!!! You gotta watch this.
