Depends on his mods. I've seen some GSX's run low 11's high 10's those are very rare....the majority don't upgrade turbos and engine components. They usually just upgrade exhaust and chit.....Those should hit mid 13's to 14's depending on driver. You should know how your car is. Good luck. You never know till you race......mmmuuuaaauuuuaaahhhhhhh!!

[SR240DET]

thats tru samiam...lol.. but he is a horable driver... he jsut got his lisence....and he asked me if hi gets a 6 speed tranny on his shitty monte.... will that mean he can only push the clutch in 6 times.. lol... damn kids.... oh well.... but he doesnt know how to drive stick.. so i think i might be able to take him if what you told me is tru.. but isnt that type of eclipse really rare??? i hope he doesnt even find one that bastard..

[samiam]

Well, it depends on if he has the GSX which is turboed pre-2000. Or if he has the newer ones, post-2000 then they only have a 4 or 6 cyl. none turboed. Then you'd spank his ass and hand it to him in a cookie jar. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

The AWD turbo eclipses are pretty fast so watch your ass and don't miss a gear. &nbsp;I ran w/ one that a friend has and it got the jump on me because of my wheel spin but I ran him down (they don't have that much top end from what I saw but I never have driven one <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> )

Should be a good race! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

Well if he cant drive stick at all, and Im assuming you can....hes screwed. Maybe hes buyin some Turbo running shoes or somethin. Better look out <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

[SR240DET]

hmmmm i dont even like him very much.. he is always talking shit about my s14 and my friends mk3... so im gonna trick him to buy a RS... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> &nbsp;with all of his 17 g's.. he is a USDM guy... now he wants a import for some reason... oh well.. thanks on helping me out guys.... im glad i talked to people who had experience racing a AWD eclipes..

eclipes turbo engines have absolutely no top end. &nbsp;gsx have mad grip off the whole obviously because of the awd. &nbsp;stock they run low 15's high 14's. &nbsp;my friend has a talon tsi awd...pretty darn quick. &nbsp;he runs low 14's with a new tubro and injectors and str8 pipe. &nbsp;hes on low boost currently. &nbsp;hes gonna get the jump on you and its gonna be close but your top end might save you if you can drive good enough. &nbsp;if hes a crappy driver its in the bag. &nbsp;theyre extremely rare so hes probably not gonna find one. &nbsp;ive been all over auto trader lately and i havent seen any for sale.

well if you are an runing the sr20 and he has a stock gsx, you should beat him. &nbsp;his car weighs in at over 3000 lbs, while your is down near 2600bls or so. &nbsp;stock for stock you will ahve a little more power too so you should do fine. &nbsp;they can be quick though if moded right, my buddies car runs a 12.6 with many mods and higher boost. &nbsp;but stock for stock and the fact he cant drive stick, you should beat him as far as i can see.

Dude, samiam is the greatest band in the world.


And yeah, you should be able to take him.... AWD is better off the line, but top end you should take him.

They're right, if he cant drive a stick, you've got it in the bag. &nbsp;If its a 2G DSM (rounder body style) you've got him. &nbsp;The 2G's are slower than the 1G's. &nbsp;Plus they have a crank walk problem. &nbsp;I've got a friend thats done some mods on a 1G DSM and pulled a 12.5. &nbsp;He's a really good driver too. &nbsp;If you've got the SR swap, you'll beat him. &nbsp;If you can hook up.

gsx weights near 4100 lbs...way over 3k lbs
