EricT93's 98 Eclipse

[EricT93]

Hello ladies and gents. My name is Eric and im in the Houston area. I work part time as a sales consultant at Carmax North Houston while attending school. I'm also a Christian(or Follower of Christ as I like to say) and I take my faith very seriously. I'm a member of What The Fitment? and decided to check you guys out after hearing some good things. Im also a friend of Chan so I guess you could say he referred me. Anyways, I drived a slammed and fitted(ish) 2g dsm. Its a non-turbo(for now) 5 speed with nothing but exhaust as far as performance. The tunes are handled by a Digital Designs 3515 on 1800rms. Its dropped on GC sleeves and the wheels are ACS 18x7.5+40 with 25mm adapters in the front and 33mm in the back. BCs with the extreme drop kit and some 18x9.5 varrstoen 2.2.1s are next on the list so its definitely a work in progress. Anyways, heres pics!

OLD PICS










Heres a video of the DD3515 doing damage!


I'm open to comments and suggestions, just please keep them constructive.

Thanks!

Clean 2g man, love the OZs editions. I actually wanna go polished, will look good with the polished FMIC whenever I go turbo'd!

[05subysti]

then get them polished! either way your car will be nice. turbo kit and evo brake upgrade, and your car will be set!

Here is the new setup. 18x9.5 Rota P45R. +20 rear +30 front. Thoughts?

[pwrFAP]

could go slightly lower with that stretch

could go slightly lower with that stretch

Looks good, but do exactly this ^

[EricT93]

When I get a stiffer suspension setup I plan on going a little lower. Not too low though, I dont like too much tire tuck, takes away from the overall fitment to me. Btw minor spacing coming soon aswell as polishing the wheels.

[ABACABB]

if you want to stay that height get wider tires stretch does not look good at that height.

Any wider and they rub, and they poke well. It will go lower but I'm not out to tuck tire. Thanks for the input though.

Are your fenders not rolled? There is defiantly room for more meat. Get a roll and pull and slam it or get a roll and pull and put some meaty tires on, look at 80% of the cars on here there is defiantly room for improvement.

Fronts are rolled and rears have been completely shaven and slightly pulled. I know theres room for improvement and I appreciate the tips. I'll be going slightly more wide and a little lower when I get back so it's definitely not done. Again I appreciate the help and Ive got plenty more plans for it.

New setup looks MUCH better.

Thank you sir!
