Eclipse
Can any of you nice folks tell which Eclipse was used in The Fast and the Furious. And if you know can you tell what Modifications was used on the car. I would know 'cause I'm building a replica(i dunno if it would reseble it at all but i will try).

Did Some thinking
I'm thinking about getting the bodykit and the rims, and maybe the roof scoop if I can get a hold of one. When it's about the colour I am going to get the carbon fiber hood and custom spray black flames from the hood and backwards towards the rear wheel dam. The main colour on the car is going to be Amulet Red, and ther is not going to be any stickers or graphics on it, mainly because that gives an impression of being all out of ideas and not being able to make a stunning vehicle without cheap commercial stickers and graphics. But anyways thanks for giving me the advice.
P.S I have done some double checking and found out that the body kit is not Blitz, but an Robocar kit.

In the movie, all the eclipse made were RS's, not the turbo models. Also, 95-99 is 2g not 3g. And furthurmore, the body kit is a blitz style body kit, not Robocar. Robocar was a wholesale/retail distribution company in California that donated blitz kits for the eclipse's used and they got their sticker (name) on the front of the eclipe's used...They are now only selling Velox now. I know this b/c I'm friends with one of the old owners of Robocar...

the eclipse used was a 2G, prolly about a '99. the only parts i know of are the full bliltz body kit and some gay aluminum spoiler. i would strongly recommend not replicating that car. be original, people respect you a whole lot more if your creative. do you realize how many times that car has been replicated.
im mad that the lead car in FATF2 is a 3G. now everyone that sees the movie and sees my car is gonna be like "thats just like the car on the movie"

I am not replicating the car after all. I wast just wondering what engine and suspension is on it. The colour I am going to go with is Amulet Red with the black carbon fibre hood.

F&FII
In the new F&F II the main car, that our old friend Brian drives, this time is an R34 Skyline! Not a new Eclipse, although there is one in the movie. The 4 main characters are: late model RX7, Pink S2000 (for the chick ya know), late model Skyline (not the new Z350 one, lame twist in the Skyline blood-line but thats another story...), and of course another Supra (this time GOLD!?!?). Oh yeah there's some people in the movie too...

Also, think of this: 95 eclipse RS $3-4k, 97 eclipse RS $6-7k, 97-99 headlights can be had for roughly $100-$150 used, you can see there's a little difference in price there. Personally I would want to save around $3k minus the $100-$150 for the 97-99 headlights if I was just gonna destroy the car anyways
