Hey guys/gals just picked up two wagons for the price of one! The same old story, one runs, one doesn't. But got them for a good price and the one that runs is awesome.
A little background on me, I own three cars (in my sig) my Eclipse is my pride and joy. I've had that thing for 6 years and have built it all myself. The latest dyno sheet was 221.4 hp @ 4600rpm and 214 ft/lbs torque, all N/A. If you know anything about that model Eclipse you know there is NO aftermarket for these cars and most my mods are DIY projects, besides basic bolt-ons.
My CRX has just been completed with an 90 ZC DOHC swap, the hardest thing was getting the fab shop to get the engine placement just right, hasport doesn't make D series mounts for that CRX.
My Prelude i had was the SOHC 2.0, which was my first car. I loved that thing, did some basic bolt-ons and a few cosmetic things, never dyno'd it but it ran very strong.
And last but not least my Wagons, I own an 88 2wd auto(not running, and a 91 2wd 5-speed(running) with a d15b6(Lame.) I'd like to build one of the wagon's one day but I already have my money tied up in my Eclipse. But the tuning bug is already starting to bite me...
I'm gonna read some more over the DIY things for the wagon and do them, and pick up some nice wheels for now. The only thing i've done thus far is welded on some parts of my V6 eclipse exhaust to the wagon, it looks really good! I'll get some pics up in the Members Ride section within the next couple of weeks. Hope to gain more knowledge of the wagon, it is truly a thing of beauty.

Let's see those pics!
I was a former DSM man...2 Stealth RT/TT's
Yessir! Good cars, the Stealth as you know packs the same V6 as the Eclipse, just turned the other way..lo
I'll get pics up soon, not much to look at but sweet nonetheless.
