Amazing. I'm considering giving my 8 a paintjob like that. wow.

 

I'm going to sound reaaaally bad, but I don't understand Piston engines that much, so I can't really tell what the big issue is here

I just watched this.

 

dont have the time- can you link or post the pic please?

 

Thats the greatest pic thread i've ever seen haha

 

I don't think I've ever seen welding that bad. Looks like they hired a drunk monkey to do it.

 

thats awesome.

 

I'm surprised it even runs.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSl5zSlZzpM

I think at one point the engine spat something out, when the guy puts the camera on the floor..


And...
No ****.. Even with my limited knowledge of cars, when I saw their "air box" it had fail written all over it

 

Lol !

and they wonder why it wont hold idle?

and with ports like that ... LOL !

how stupid can Lan Evo people get ?

 

That's an Eclipse

 

Alot of solid principals but not that great craftsmanship,, and that paint job, can anyone say Gundam...

 

haha neither do i, but when he's filing away pieces of his engine with a hand file, you have to know somethings wrong hahahah. besides, did you SEE the paint!?

hahaha i love how he describes his OMG-airbox bhahahaha

yeah thats an eeklipse

rofl i didnt even think of that. gotta love gundam, but not on your fvckin eclipse hahahaha

 

hahahahaha...where to begin

The airbox? leaking fuel? 1 piece exhaust? Busted turbo? Taking apart and welding on the new turbo?

I am much more impressed with Mitsubishi engineering because these guys butchered everything!

 

All those steel plates they've added to the car too.. must weigh a ton

 

pffffffffffft............

After all that, and a serious amount of cash, he is still driving an Eclipse.

FAIL

 

At the very very beginning, when the forum guys were shredding the shop, I was actually rooting for the shop to succeed and pull it off. However, the terror of watching intercoolers and starters and everything things else getting painted metallic blue, not to mention the obviously shoddy work, bad welding and the mangling of the head, made me change my mind rather quickly.

What a piece of junk. It's awful to see people working so hard on something that didn't even have a chance to turn out to be anything but complete crap.

Experts. There are too many of them in this world now.

 

now... I know this isnt the worst thing they did... but wouldnt painting the intercooler make it less effective? Seems like it would prevent heat transfer, and I would assume that's common sense I would think...

 

Hahhahahhahahah.

 

i dont even kno what to say to the whole project. and HE WELDED everything r u kidding. ahahaha and whats with painting everything different colors lol

 

That was the greatest read everrrrrrr!!!!1!!111

 

LMAO. I'm not exactly mechanically inclined (more like mechanically retarded), but holy crap, I don't think I could do a worse job putting an engine together. The wheezing idle itself got me chuckling, but I literally started laughing out loud when the car spat out a big chunk of...something in that Youtube video. That turbo is classic too!

 

NICE TURBO PIC! the busted fins add 5bhp, i asked a honda guy haha. yeah the welding job blowwws and paint... ricer!!!!! interior suede at least looks good.

 

Pft, painting everything in the same colors gives +5whp per painted part didn't you know?

 

hahahah I love the comments on youtube, they obviously didnt see the true side of the project, lol!
