Z Killer ?!?!

Brazilian Z · 09-15-2009, 07:03 AM

Hi!

At a Brazilian Mitsubishi Forum, a member has posted an article from Import Tuner Magazine (november), about the Eclispe GT. Have you seen?

They say that with only 3 up-grades (CAI, Ripp Header and Exhaust) they reached a "Naturally Aspired Power" and a "Z Killer".

"outputting 290.5whp and 284.1 lb-ft torque, our eclipse gt was transformed from a decently quick aggressive-sounding commuter car into a tire roasting z killing roaring beast begging to be taken to the next level. we're not sure if any modification will continue to the car...but we're dying to drive a gutted one with sticky tires, a tuned suspension and RIPP SDS"

Can you believe it?

If you take car (A), and apply parts (B), it will out perform stock car (C).

Fill in A B or C with anything you want.

If I ever find the picture of my buddy who tapped a GT35R to a tricycle for a quick photo before putting it into his 280sx, I will post it to counter this!!!

The bolt on would have to be a few JATO rockets like on Mythbusters!.

For the cost of ONE of those rockets alone, you could buy a Z.

I think you mean about $10-15k in parts, hell my fox including buying it cost a total of close to if not right at $5,000 and I ate vipers and c5 zo6's all day!

Who cares? The real question is why doesnt mitsu put the evo motor in the eclipse?

I think the point here is that saying 'modded car A can make more power than stock car B' is just gay. It's not comparing apples to apples. So an Eclipse with a CAI, headers, and a CBE can take on a stock Z with no mods. Ooooo . . . Big F-ing Deal. Try comparing it to a Z with the same mods.
