    Good Points: Fast, Strong off the line, Easy to make fast enough to send others packin in the 1/4.


    Bad Points: Stock parts... suspension, tires, exaust, all simple things to be rid of.


    General comments: I have a 1990 Eagle Talon TSI, It now has a built motor, fuel system, brakes, tires, 3" turbo back, Shift kit, and many other performance parts. The only car to beat my 1/4 time was a 2003 Subaru WRX, Evo couldn't do it STI, and many others Vetts, Ponys, Beamers, Yeah they all payed to much for there whip and can't keep up just swap those stock parts out you'll see.

    Mitsubishi Eclipse sports cars have very strong motors, I recommend getting a 6 bolt motor and putting 2g pistons on it. This is a great build and supports a lot of horsepower at a cheap price.

    I would not trade my Mitsubishi Eclipse for any thing, and I suggest that you try and get one if you do not have one. Aftermarket products are through the roof for the eclipse cars. I only have a thermal exhaust no cat. KandN turbo filter. Skunk 2 short shifter. Greedy front mount intercooler. Greedy blow-off. 18in rims, with low pros raptors. Black with grey inter. I will put more when I have more money course. The eclipse GSX is fun to dive and it will be sure to turn heads. Get one and never ...

    Overall, the showroom price for the Mitsubishi Eclipse is a bit much, but overall I think the price is well worth the car. Another thing is that the 95-99 eclipse is a great car and the motor does just fine. Like any other car, keep with with the maintenance and keep the boost reasonable, it's a car the you will love! Its fast, easy to get more power out of and most of all, it's a really fun car to drive. Trust no stock 4 cylinder will match it.

    I started with a bone stock and I put about $25000 total on the car but it has 612hp at the wheels and 630fpt and 24psi. I race cars for a living and I also have a Supra with 765hp and I like to drive the Mitsubishi Eclipse better.

    I own a 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST and I am nothing but pleased with it. I bought it off a guy on AutoTrader, I bought it and it stalled on me a few times and turns out it needed a new ECU. But after I had that replaced its been NOTHING but fun ever since! I put on a Stillen Hi-Flow filter and Espelir JTG500 3" catback exhaust on it, so far. My Greddy Blow-off Valve is already on its way. After that, definitely a Boost Controller. But seriously, this car is a must have, I have dusted the ...

    It is a fun car, and is presentable, but it does not live up to the hipe that is levied behind it.

    I've owned my 97 Eclipse GSX for about 2 years and it's given me nothing but happiness. I have a few upgrades but my shortage of money won't let me get any more for right now. The car has 72K on it and is jet black. Stick, of course. Upgrades are limited to aftermarket black ADR Battle EXE rims, HKS SSQV Blow Off Valve, catback "upswept" exhaust, 1600 watt Rockford Fosgate stereo system, and custom blue backlit gauges.

    I have a '95 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX and I love it but it occasionally has problems. The motors are fast and the block is a tank but some of the other components have problems. A lot of people under estimate the car but I've smoked Civics with re-tuned engines when my car was stock and the awd is awesome but it kills clutches. Overall I love my GSX and wouldn't sell it for the world.

    Alright, don't take this the wrong way guys. I am actually looking into buying a 95 GSX because I know they are fast. But come on, some of the claims on this car are ridiculous. One person says that in stock trim a GSX can beat a Cobra. I find this impossible unless he found a driver with no skill whatsoever. The Cobra since it was conceived has put anywhere from 235 rwhp to 390 (under-rated) rwhp. 210 hp will not beat any of these cars, in my opinion. It will also take more than a few modificat ...

    Well, put it this way...I've had 3 cars so far, a Honda Civic, a Toyota MR2 and a Honda S2000 all of which I have tweeked up but I would trade ANY one of them for a Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX because I love it sooooo much! The two cars which rule the streets I think would be the Supra and this one, in performance and looks. Although parts are quite a high price to maintain and fix I think it pays it back for the great price the car actually comes for. A definately MUST HAVE car!

    What can I say about the Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX. It is a fast car at an affordable price. The car has such a great body style to it also. There is no other car that looks anything like it (except for the copycat talon). The interior is all leather and the GSX has power everything. The seats are very comfortable. My friends always tell me how comfortable the backseat is. There is a lot of room for a great system in the back trunk area. The stock infinity system is good but I wanted the best. I ha ...

    There is a turbo upgrade that you can do to the Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX that makes the car run a little over 300hp for about 500 dollars. I am planning on getting one. I just have to find someone to put it in for me.

    I have a Mitsubishi Formula Firebird LS1 and Talon TSi and...both upgraded...The Talon easily handles the Firebird from stand still and quarter miles, but from a roll, or long distances, and top end there is no comparisson between the two the formula blows its away! The Talon can handle small city races, but put the twin turbo package on the Firebird and it will win every time no matter what! plus the Firbird looks 10 times better, has nice exhaust sound, and has t-tops!.

    Wow Im lost for words.. I love my Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX. I own a 96 Eclipse GSX and it is by far the fastest 4 cylender car out there. I haven't found a single car that can keep up with my baby.
    You have to take the good with the bad.....and that is makes sure that you get regular maintanace on your GSX, other wise you'll run into problems.

    Without a doubt, the Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX is one of the best cars out there. They came from the factory with 210 hp, and it has been said that these cars are the easiest cars to gain horsepower from bolt-on mods. I have owned three '95 Eclipse GSX's and I have absolutely loved them (obviously). The reason why i've had three is because one was stolen, one was totalled (not my fault), and I am hoping nothing happens to this one. Going back to what I originally said, with just a couple base bolt ...

    I have a 95' Eclipse GSX, and it is by far the best car I have ever owned. I had previously owned a 97' Eclipse RS with full Apex GT Spec exhaust, AEM cold air intake, Apexi stainless header, and a custom intake manifold done by DSR motrsports. My 95' GSX killed it on the 1/8 and the 1/4 stock. Now, My GSX sports a Greddy SP2 catback exhaust w/ a Greddy downpipe and hi flo cat, Greddy Type-S Blo off valve, Greddy intercooler piping kit, And an Injen Intake w/ a K&N filter. I timed myself at a 5. ...

    I like my Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX so far, had it for 3 years. Its good for someone looking for a cheap but fun car. Regular maintenance is important and a pain at times but its worth it.

    The Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX is a very powerful, fun car to drive. The car requires scheduled maintenance regularly. Do not purchase unless you are willing to deal with constant problems. Not trying to bash the car at all. I am a owner of a modified '97 GSX. I love the car but sometimes it really gets on my nerves!
