Turbine Eclipse?Turbodog97 10-16-2005, 03:28 AM http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TURBINE-JET-ENGINE-POWERED-MITSUBISHI-ECLIPSE_W0QQitemZ4582975424QQcategoryZ6352QQrdZ1QQ cmdZViewItem Lol, I wish it was a 2g though... :rolleyes: Thor06 10-16-2005, 05:46 AM :lol: some people have way too much money. Did anyone else notice the 2 mufflers hanging out the back? fiberglasscivic 10-17-2005, 02:02 AM That thing can use both engines which might explain the dual mufflers. I wonder how you stop with something like that. And there is no way that using the jet engine is still street legal. Maybe just the normal engine though. SLoe 10-17-2005, 05:39 AM Even with the jet, I STILL wouldn't buy a 3g. :p Blackcrow64 10-17-2005, 09:35 AM That thing can use both engines which might explain the dual mufflers. I wonder how you stop with something like that. And there is no way that using the jet engine is still street legal. Maybe just the normal engine though. That doesn't explain the dual mufflers... How many jet engines do you see with a muffler on them? None... Besides, where the flame comes out is where all the exhaust escapes from for the jet engine. Yeah, there is definetly no way that thing is street legal. I can just see some dumbass buy that and going cruising in a busy town. They would probably let the afterburner go at a stoplight toasting the next 2 cars behind them. Hehe... l_eclipse_l 10-17-2005, 11:11 AM That doesn't explain the dual mufflers...

Hehe... :newburn: Shpyder 10-17-2005, 01:02 PM I don't think power goes through the wheels.... -The Stig- 10-17-2005, 01:22 PM I don't think power goes through the wheels.... Nah, it looks like it's being used like a normal airplane would, to push the air. cbell77 10-17-2005, 01:47 PM no way a 12 foot flame coing out the back of your car is legal in any state. I would like to see the look on the cops face lol. Ps. I wonder where some one is gonna take it to get fixed lol I want to see what like firestone or some other shop would think. -The Stig- 10-17-2005, 02:02 PM I wonder if that voids any warrantys... :uhoh: ned032002 10-17-2005, 04:21 PM I wonder if this guy actually thinks he going to get his money back out of his investment. ned032002 10-17-2005, 04:23 PM A very unique sleeper. Black97GST 10-17-2005, 04:38 PM lol i bet that thing is slow as hell on the stock engine. and HORRIBLE on gas with all of that damn weight in the back. He must have some STIFF spings in the back to support all that weight. ned032002 10-17-2005, 04:46 PM It's got to be like pulling a huge ass trailer...right EDMUND65? Haha defiancy 10-17-2005, 08:58 PM but with a jet engine like that. I know the ones on our helicopters are about the size a little bigger and they push out 4000hp plus. haha that would be crazy to drive that thing Kuhn 10-18-2005, 12:36 AM That would be so much fun, but you'd never get to use it... I'd give myself about a week before I ended up hitting the afterburner infront of a cop. I'd love to see the look on their face though! :eek2: Blackcrow64 10-18-2005, 01:59 AM That would be so much fun, but you'd never get to use it... I'd give myself about a week before I ended up hitting the afterburner infront of a cop. I'd love to see the look on their face though! :eek2: LOL I can hear that shit already... Is there a problem officer?... Oh, no its ok. That 9 foot flame is perfectly normal... Illegal? But, the guy on Ebay said it was legal... hehe :iceslolan gsxeclipse97 10-18-2005, 02:57 AM there would be no driving. You wouldnt be able to peal yourself off the pack seat. Not even long enough for you to floor it. Partizan 10-19-2005, 08:20 PM Imagine lining up with that at a light. But that's funny, less than 10 minutes of fuel... haha. veilsidercng 10-19-2005, 09:23 PM I couldn't afford the gas..33 gallons in 10 mins..holy shit haha that would be awesome just to see what a cop did though. I want a video of that. I like how he says he only, "had it up to 110" I'm guessing that's with the jet engine..and he didn't take it on salt? Maybe a raceway I guess but on the road wow haha it would be a joke to handle it with all the weight in the back. ned032002 10-22-2005, 07:20 AM I wonder if this guy actually thinks he going to get his money back out of his investment. It looks like he just might get his money back after all hers the link again. But I wonder how high the reserve is? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TURBINE-JET-ENGINE-POWERED-MITSUBISHI-ECLIPSE_W0QQitemZ4582975424QQcategoryZ6352QQrdZ1QQ cmdZViewItem ned032002 10-22-2005, 07:23 AM Check out the count on how many people have looked at this site, I've never seen that number so high :eek7: . Blackcrow64 10-22-2005, 09:51 AM Damn... Its at 37,000... I bet he has well over 40,000 invested in it though. ned032002 10-22-2005, 12:39 PM I think he said something like 45 grand into it at least thats what I thought I read idk. SmicAA72 10-24-2005, 03:33 PM It keeps on gettin higher... Kuhn 10-25-2005, 04:39 PM I think the seller actualy made money... After selling his CDs with the video and pics of the car, and getting $43,700 for the car... He made out pretty well! vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
