RICE ALERT! If you don't like rice, look away now!
Bought this car a few years ago stock, and decided to rebuild it. Didn't have any money for any bodykit though so I decided to build one myself from scratch. Turned out quite good once I had splashed some Lamborghini paint and a murial over it. The exterior mods gave me a soundsystem sponsor, so now it has a pretty neat stereo with a MacMini as a primary headunit. The actual headunit is mounted in the ceiling. But as I started off with, this is a total ricer, running a close to stock 2L DOHC 4G63 none turbo engine. Plans were initially to turbo convert it, partly due to the capabilites of the 4G63, but Swedish legislation just ruins that totally, so no dice. Even so the car has been quite successful on the Swedish and Norwegian carscene and won a lot of prestigous awards. Among them this year at Vallåkraträffen (Swedens biggest outdoor carshow) were it got first price in it's class out of around 300 or so cars. There were about 1500 cars total at the carshow. And here are some pictures of it
The first one is a bit older, before I built that lip in the front.
And to you rice haters out there!
Don't be afraid, cause I have bought another car! A toyota MR2 that I am currently working on. The Eclipse sort of like feels finnished at this point, so I am just gonna drive that around to carshows whilst I build the MR2. And here's the good news, it won't be a ricer! YAY!
I'm gonna supercharge the engine, using a small loophole in Swedish law, turning it into a 300 bhp ethanol beast!
Pictures will pop up as soon as it's built
Cheers!
