Thanks for looking. I'm planning an engine swap to a 3s-gte but I came across an article about the new eclipse. In the article, they were talking about how it has too much horsepower and still being FWD making the car understeer alot. This made me wonder about my celi if I ended up doing this swap and end up with around 250hp, would she end up understeering? Should I be looking into camber kits or something to counter this if its too bad or something. As my car is at this point, all the suspension is still stock.

2slow2nervous, what is your definition of "horribly bad" smile.gif

Lagos, correct me if I'm wrong but if a car has certain driving characteristics and your add more HP to it, dosen't it alter the whole "equation" (for lack of a better term)?



im just telling you what i remember my first impressions of the 3s being. i kept thinking that all the good things about the car stayed the same, but now it has balls.
