Is anyone familiar with the 2000-2005 Mitsu Eclipse?


Recommended Posts

Well I bought the GF a 2001 Eclipse GS, its a 2.4 I4 , auto and it runs great, but am going to do some preventative maintenance for piece of mind.. Timing/Balance shaft belts, idlers, water pump etc, and was wondering what else? I hear these are pretty descent motors, and will go a long time if taken care of, but Im just so unfamiliar with it, it sucks trying to find what works, what the good/bad are and what specific parts to get.. Plugs, wires, oil, etc.. My old srt4 was picky as to what it liked, anything bosch was no good, so Im just trying to see if anyone has any pics or info about the car that they could throw my way, thanks

Oh and once the maintenance is done, i will be looking for a nice little audio setup for it, so suggestions are welcome there too ;)

I wouldn't mind molding a fiberglass babyseat back there, but in about a year Id have to glass a booster seat box, and I dont really feel like doing that all over again ;)
