Default new daily driver

1994 mitubishi eclipse 1.8l non turbo, great shape runs great, just has stripped clear coat. got it for $300
I dont plan to do any mods to it, but its so tempting, cause I have everything I need to turbo it except a manifold wjich I can get from ebay for cheap. why did I buy another japanese car? these things are too easy to mod.

pics will be up soon

Nice steal... 420a sucks, even turbo.. I can vouch for that.

thanks for the info. I will just drive and maintain it, I already have a project car that cant stay running for a month, so I will just keep it as a daily driver, I like it though its very reponsive, runs nice

Rudebwoy, what's up with the Honda? I thought you had purchased some new parts for a rebuild. I hope things are going OK .
