1988 Mitsubishi Montero 2-Door 4WD VIN: JJ417059 You are viewing a rust-free 1st Generation Mitsubishi Montero 2-door. The very capable off-road ability of this four-wheel drive utility vehicle makes it destined to join the ranks of the much sought after FJ Land-Cruisers here in the US. In recent years the pricing and resale value of the Gen-1 Montero has shown a steep increase and will continue as the word begins to come in from other countries that have already recognized this as a coveted off road collectible for many years. This is an opportunity to get a clean unit at an affordable price. The current mileage on this unit is 232,704. The owner is a mechanic that purchased this in 2004 with 216,000 miles on it. At that time the engine was removed for overhaul, the front and rear axles, and transmission disassembled inspected and resealed, and all worn bearings replaced. The clutch is a new heavy-duty unit. Also all suspension items were rebuilt including; upper/lower control arm bushings and shafts, upper/lower ball joints, sway bar bushings, and leaf-spring bushings. It has been stored indoors for the last ten years. The engine is the inline-4 cylinder G54B with 2.6L displacement. It has had the updated timing chain with removal of the balancer that previously would fail on these engines. The original carburetor was replaced with a Weber 38DGE. The original jet-valve type cylinder head was replaced with an upgraded non-jet valve head that is ported and polished for performance. The original exhaust manifold was replaced with headers for increased performance. Overall the performance of the engine is far superior to the somewhat anemic stock engine. The engine is also a good candidate for turbocharging as this cylinder block boasts the piston cooling jets that came with the Starion version of the G54B. The alternator was replaced 2000 miles ago with a new Mitsubishi OEM unit just because it was original. The original was non-failed and will go with the unit as a spare. The body has 2-inches of urethane spacers and the suspension has an additional 2-inches of lift to provide clearance for the 32X11.50 R15 BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires on Eagle Alloy 15x10 wheels. The spare is the same. The tires have approximately 3,500 miles on them with plenty of wear to go. The lift on this will allow up to 35” tires but the 32” provide for a good combination of on and off road usage without having to use the low-range on the transfer case. The owner has the original wheels and body hardware, as well as most of the original engine parts in case the buyer wants to bring it back to its original “low rider” stature. The unit also has an oil accumulator (for off-roading oil pressure stability on uneven terrain), and an on-board air compressor for airing back up the tires for on-road use. The seats are original and the driver’s side has a tear on the outboard side. The paint has some minor scratches and dings. The transmission is moist with oil, but does not drip oil. The engine has minor smoke on initial startup (valve guide seals). The stereo does not work, but the original is still intact and works if hooked up. It was disconnected when an aftermarket unit was put in. The dash has room for a stereo and CB if desired. The owner also has many new spare parts that will go with this beautiful SUV to the lucky bidder if they wish. Buyer is responsible for shipping within one-week of sale. Sale is final upon receipt of cashier’s check or money order for the full sale amount. Thank you! |

Mitsubishi ASX is French for Outlander Sport
Fri, 28 Sep 2012Mitsubishi has revealed the Euro-version of the same Outlander Sport model that debuted with updates earlier this year at the New York Auto Show. No, the French do not call it the Royale Sport (with cheese), but rather the ASX.
The crossover has received a range of aesthetic and engineering tweaks, including revised interior fabrics. Designers have also abandoned the old rotary knob switch for the vehicle's all-wheel-control system in favor of a pushbutton interface, though the largest change to the recipe comes in the form of a reworked multi-link rear suspension. Powertrain options remain unchanged, however, with a total of three engine mills on deck, including a 1.6-liter gasoline engine with 115 horsepower mated to a five-speed manual transmission in two-wheel drive configuration.
Those hunting up a little more traction can step up to a 1.8-liter diesel with 147 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque paired with a six-speed manual and the buyer's choice of either a two-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive system. A low-CO2 1.8 diesel is also available with 114 horsepower. You can check out the full press release below for more information.
Mitsubishi HQ raided by the Japanese government
Fri, Sep 2 2016Mitsubishi's fuel economy scandal continues to grow, and the Japanese government wants answers. According to Reuters, the Japanese Transport Ministry raided the company's headquarters and a factory in Nagoya today. This raid comes soon after the company revealed that a number of its SUVs were also being sold with incorrect fuel economy ratings. The Japanese government issued a stop-sale on those vehicles a few days ago. This raid also follows an internal investigation conducted by Mitsubishi to discover how this fuel economy scandal happened, and how the practices that led to it were able to continue for 25 years. The internal investigation revealed a few contributing factors that all fell under issues with the company's culture. There was significant pressure throughout the company to reach fuel economy targets and missing them wasn't readily accepted. Questioning decisions of management was also discouraged, and it seemed the different divisions of the company weren't working well together. The findings of this raid have yet to be revealed, but it will be interesting to see how they compare with those of the internal investigation. The Japanese Transport Ministry seems intent on preventing a repeat of this with another company considering that, according to Reuters, it "sent documents to other automakers to enforce compliance with rules for calculating mileage ."

Recharge Wrap-up: Fiat 500X emissions, Japan EV sales down
Thu, Feb 11 2016The Fiat 500X exceeds EU emissions limits, according to environmental lobby group DUH. In dyno tests, DUH found NOx emissions in the diesel-powered 500X to be 11 to 20 times the limit with a warm engine, but closer to the limit with a cold engine. Testing of vehicles from Fiat and other automakers "point towards defeat devices," says DUH campaigner Axel Friedrich. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) offered no comment in response to the accusations. Read more from Reuters. A UK study finds that about 20 percent of the benefits from fuel efficient vehicles are negated by a tendency for people to drive them more. The study, which covers the years 1970 to 2011, finds a significant "rebound effect," when consumers use more of a cheaper energy source. It suggests these drivers drive more not because of the fuel efficiency, but because of the lower operating costs. "Until now, we didn't know the size of this effect for British motoring," says Dr. Lee Stapleton, Research Fellow for the University of Sussex Centre on Innovation and Energy Demand. "We found evidence of a significant, long-term rebound and expect our results to be of interest for public policy." Read more at Green Car Congress. Japanese EV sales have declined for the first time ever. Sales of electric vehicles slid 22 percent in 2015, leaving them at the same levels as 2012. Low gasoline prices are to blame, as well as the late arrival of the updated Nissan Leaf, which caused potential customers to hold off on their purchase. This allowed the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV to take the lead as Japan's best selling EV. The Toyota Prius Plug-In came in third place in EV sales, with the BMW i3 close on its heels.
