I think you should go to some online forums for those cars and get more information before just throwing ideals out and about. That would be more tailored to your "make it a relatively fast street car" thing...They would know more about that car


http://www.eclipseforums.org/


http://www.team-eclipse.com/invision/index.php

those might help?

I can't remeber what gen. a 95 is..i know there were 2 different variations in the rounded body style...

1) sell the car and buy a 5 spd.
2) make sure the 5 spd is a 4g63
3) if you get a 4g63, it wont be a HEADER, it'll be a turbo manifold
4) suspension setup depends on the kind of power you'll want to make.....and how you want the car to ride/handle

is it a GS, GS-T, OR GSX? If it's a non-turbo, then sell it and look into getting a 97-99 GS-T OR GSX. 95-96 have too many problems.
