Still my favorite car design. Timeless. It still looks great even in todays market.
It blows me away just to see a 2g with color-matching door handles!
Haha. When I got it the passenger one was black. I had to change that and make it right of course.
This comment hurt my feelings hahaha I cant wait to get my 2g door handles color matched
same. both of mine broke one winter when it was -40 for a week.
My heart broke when I heard "14b". So much potential, so little drive.
This channel really deserves more recognition! Beautiful job!
Aww, thank you Ricky for the wonderful compliments.
Hermano tienes el mejor eclipse que he visto en mi vida... Felicidades.. saludos desde León GTO México
Wish we could have heard this run, do a pass, launch maybe? Would be nice in future videos
I might have in some other of my videos. I sold it a while back on BaT and had some videos there of it running. No launch though 😀.
Absolutely amazing. Another dream of mine. 1gab talon and 2gb eclipse and an evo 9 rs is the goal
All excellent choices.
Amazing attention to detail - that's really impressive.
Thanks Jonathan. Now to the the same to the Esprit!
such an incredible job. I would die to have this. my 1998 GSX was hands down, my favorite car I've ever owned.
the under carriage work blows me away.
Glad you like the car. It is currently for sale.
@@SlippingTime how can I contact you?
@@ARMWRESTLINGCYCLINGFRANCE go to my “about” section on my CZcams channel when using a PC and you will see my email.
Super clean ,plus white is the best color
She cleaned up nice I think. Thanks Levis.
Just found this channel today and this is like the 5th or 6th video in a row that I've watched. Awesome job! I'm a stickler for OE wheels so I'd love to see a set of stock GS-X wheels on this thing.
Also on some of the hardware that you weren't able to replace. I've found a way to mimic the yellow zinc on hardware without going through the trouble of new zinc. I first hit them with a dust coat of chrome paint. Then get a can of the duplicolor anodized paint. It's basically a candy paint in the aerosol can. But it's like a yellow/gold color and if you dust it on from like a foot away over the chrome it looks great. I've done this on small brackets as well. Just a cheap tip if you want to try it.
Edit: the paint is part # MC202 metal cast yellow.
Thanks for watching and the vote on the wheels. I have done the paint of hardware in the past, but find it comes off over time or when you wrench on it later. I also did my own plating on OEM bolts which worked, but took a lot of time. I eventually decided to find a supplier that had brand new near OEM looking hardware. I appreciate sharing the tip with everyone so they know the options available.
@@SlippingTime I replace what I can too. A few sellers on ebay offer yellow zinc metric hardware in various sizes. But large suspension bolts are impossible to find. I want to get into doing real zinc plating as well but for now painting the heads looks better than nothing lol.
Super work on this GSX
whoever owns it next will have a much nicer car than must out of dealership model out there
Yes, it is nicer than new showroom condition if I say so myself. As always, thank you Saulo for the nice comments.
Wow. Amazing 😍
Happy you like it Dean!
Very nice car, likely one of the best in existence. I wonder if it the video is all CGI, because: 1> no wind in Sask. 2> no mosquito swarms attacking .
Haha. The wind calms at the end of the day thankfully and we sent the mosquitoes south this year.
If you every come across another one of those exhaust manifolds I’d buy it regardless of cost right now !
I will keep an eye out. This one comes with an entire car. 😉
immaculate!!
👍🏻
👏 nice car
Thank you 1890 garcia.
Excellent work - thought the intro was cool. Did you consider a manifold heat shield? What's the extra line running to the back next to the brake lines underneath?
Good eye Radboud. The under hood heat shield is the only item missing and it is because the original one’s foil was delaminating. I attempted to reskin it, but felt it took too much always from the stock look of the car and did not attach it. Everything on the car has to be perfect or it doesn’t go on. Currently I have a lead on a new one.
The extra lines under the car are the -6 AN fuel feed, the catch can vent, and a short one just ending past the firewall for the coolant overflow bottle. I have the catch can vent go that far back to ensure no fines can ever get in the cab area.
I’m in love with this build! Please feel free to contact me if you want to sell it.
Unfortunately it’s sold. Thanks for the interest.
Nice
Thank you.
How many miles is on the motor? Did he say? I know the body has 99 but he said that the motor was put in before he bought it so I don't know if he knows the motor mileage
Where are you located in Saskatchewan?
Hey I've got one for you 90 Eagle TSI in really good shape not perfect but all original except radio
Install factory wheels ❤
Wish this was mine 🤤
Anything is possible 😉
Small issue i see/wondering about
you have a maf car but the bov aint recirc? run into stalling issues?
Good eye Donald. Although that can be an issue it doesn’t necessarily occur all the time and build/car dependent. We used it do the same back in the day and it was probably a 50/50 thing. It doesn’t seem to bother this car at all or else I would have recirculated it for sure.
Could you post a link to those halo foglights? Pretty straight forward setup? Please. 😃🙏

@@SlippingTime Thanks so much, putting on my Veilside bodykit soon, going for new lights all around at the same time. 😁🍻
My brain really cant handle how clean this car is. Wow. Also where did you get all the stock hardware? I need it so bad lol
Thank you Nefarious CJ. I purchase all the new hardware you see from Belmetric.
@@SlippingTime thank you so much! I honestly still can't believe how great this car looks. This is the best example I have ever seen. I kinda wish it still had the original motor, but the 6 bolt is awesome.
@@SlippingTime also, how did you know what ones to buy? Do you happen to have a list maybe?
@@nefariouscj9791 been dealing with cars enough to know what sizes I need when looking at them I suppose. Best thing you can do is measure them and use a thread pitch gauge as well.
Can you please let me know how much you payed to paint the plastic moldings or what I thought were side skirts? My 97 GST spyder with super low miles overall looks great but both of those moldings are faded with the clear peeling. And did you remove them or let the body shop do all that? Thanks in advance. Clean Eclipse GSX by the way
Definitely remove them for painting for best results. At the time I worked out a deal with an autobody mixed with some other work so it’s hard to determine how much just the mouldings were. I suggest find autobody’s you can trust, remove them, and take them there for quotes.
Thanks for watching!

Where did you buy the mats?

Still for sale ?
It sold on BaT a year and half ago.
Tial wastegate on a 14 b lol , thats kind of overkill but its a nice car , at least run a Evo III 16g , I have a 2g TSi AWD Ive owned since new
Be proud to be the original owner. My 90 AWD tsi I have had since new. As for the wastegate, it is built to grow 😀.
@@SlippingTime that's the spirit
Did u sell this car yet? If not is it available?
Not sold yet and still available. Probably BaT soon.
Whats the price?
@@brandonhwv Just taking offers.
My only question is, when will it be up for sale? 🤔🤔
It’s for sale right now for anyone interested.
@@SlippingTime BTW you have a new subscriber 👍
@@anthonyisgro7185 thank you for the support!
Has it been sold?
@@bobe8477with other projects and summer I haven’t actively had it for sale anywhere yet. Likely will put it on BaT.
Is it still for sale??
I'd love to make you an offer!!!
I see a few weeks ago not sold yet so hoping I can get ahold of you. I'm a serious buyer!
@@coreygreen5455 best way to get a hold of me is to goto my CZcams about page on a pc where you will see my email address.
@@SlippingTime I'll try that right now
We need a price if it’s for sale. I’m from TX!
Hello from TX. I am taking offers at this time.
@@SlippingTime I mean what ballpark are you in??
@@trojanman22 it’s one of the nicest out there I feel with low mileage so a price that reflects that is the goal. I may put it in Bring a Trailer, but will sell it for a fair price if the right one comes.
@@SlippingTime I’ll keep an eye on out for it on there
@@trojanman22 my email is in my about CZcams page (it is seen when using a PC) if your interested.
