Well, yesterday I tried to start it, and it started really rough, then died. And now it's having a hard time turning over. My dad says it might be the battery, which I hope it is. If it suffers from the dreaded crankwalk that many a engine of this year have, then I am going to go all out as far as modifications go.
If the engine is dead, then I am going to put in a VQ35 and make it rear wheel drive. I am going to be doing all the work myself with my dad's help (or vice versa  ). I know the VQ35 is a Nissan engine, but I can't really afford a 350Z, so the next best thing would be put the heart of a Z into my car.
I realize there will have to be HEAVY work done to the firewall to fit the rear facing tranny, but I don't think it will be much, as the Eclipse already came with a AWD model. But in the end, I will have a truly one of a kind car, and isn't that why we modify our cars in the first place?

Well, you carry a UB-21 Schnauzer with an OPS Silencer, that's KGB, You prefer an 18-K over an AK, Your surveillance technique is NSA, Your ID is CIA, you recieved your PHD at NYU, traded in your GTO for a BMW, you listen to CD's by REM and STP, and you'd like to see JFK in his BVDs getting down with OPP and you probably put the toilet paper back on the roll with the paper on the inside...
