New Y33 Owner

Hey everyone. Been a member here for a short while and yesterday I went out and bought a Y33.

- 1998
- Clean Title
- 79.5k Miles
- Black Exterior
- Cream Interior

I've been looking at these for a while and finally found a great deal on one. This car's gonna stay pretty stock for a while, I still have to finish up my race car before I can dump money into this.

Anyways, here's a few pics.

Thanks. I do have some pics of the "race car"

It's a 1990 Eclipse GSX. With the last setup it ran 11.1@127mph my first time out at the track. Hopefully in the upcoming season we will see single digit passes with it.

Never got to getting any good engine bay shots of the old setup. But a general build list can be seen here. http://fftec.com/CC21.html

Here's a couple teaser pics of the new setup.

Yeah, one of the reasons I liked the cream interior is for the panels. I think it gives the interior a little more pop while retaining a softer feel compared to the black interior. I do love it already, and damn these cars are a steal.

Thanks man. I'm excited to have it. Unfortunately being a college student with no job and having a race car to finish does not leave me much time/money to spend on the Y. Hopefully I will be able to get some cash together and do the car some justice. =)

Since I still can't post in other sections of the forum, I may as well ask it here. I found a guy that claims he is running KSport springs on his Y33. Yet, I do not see them listed on the website. Anyone have any ideas? Here's the link to his ad.
