I've always loved the look of a 2g eclipse, and when I saw a black 95 gsx go up for sale on mnsc for 2k I just had to pick it up. It has been a pretty slow process, but it's been really fun project and I've learned more than i ever thought I could.
Story:
Picked the car up in September of 07, with "engine problem."
I tried to get the car running for a couple days but decided it wasn't worth the money or time to figure out what was wrong with it. So it sat for a while before I had some time to start ripping it apart.
During tear down I figured out why it had "engine problems"...
At least I made a crank puppy out of it
Over the next couple months I picked up a rebuilt 6 bolt motor and some other goodies. The car also just kinda sat there most of the winter because of no real time to work on it.
Fixed the normal 2g rust problem
Finally got things all put back together about a month ago.
