1992 Dodge Stealth Rt Awd Twin Turbo, Highly Modified on 2040-cars

Cliffside Park, New Jersey, United States

 I have here a 1992 Dodge Stealth R/t Turbo AWD.

This car is highly modified. I purchased it back in 2007, with a blown clutch. I quickly came to realize the potential of this heavy duty drivetrain. From there on, anything that failed was upgraded. I will be selling this as a LOT. It will include all stock parts, and anything else listed in this auction. The value in parting this LOT out is significantly higher than the asking price.

Before listing all the modifications and parts, I would like to state this motor is a fresh rebuild from a imported JDM GTO. It is a 2 bolt block with a 25 spline transmission. It was fully torn down, had new valves and guides installed in the first generation heads, all new lower end (bearings / rings), MLS headgaskets, third gen lifters (3mm bore over 1mm first gen), pistons and rods were cleaned and conditioned. The block and heads were flattened and hot tanked clean. The block was also rehoned for the new rings. The 9b turbos were dismantled by turbo shop, and were deemed in 'great' condition. They did not offer the rebuild, as it was not neccessary. They spin flawlessly, with a touch of the finger. No play. The motor has currently 1400 miles on it, and runs like a lion. It is flash tuned, and has a 2-step rev limiter set up for 4,000 rpm launch. The car will build boost revving in neutral if you bounce the limiter a couple times. You hear the blow off valve everytime.

Car currently has:

Stage 2 Exedy street clutch (good for 400-450hp) $300
Turbo XS RFL blow off valve (tuned for open atmos, loud) $80
Complete Vacuum Reduction, EGR Delete, FIAV Delete, IAC delete, Cruise bypass, ABS bypass
Ksport Full Adjustable Coilovers $800
1999 Mitsu vr-4 chrome rims  $750
245 40 18 Continental DWS tires (like new) $880
1999 Mitsu vr-4 front brake upgrade (bigger rotors, 4 piston calipers) $425
Stillen Cross drilled rotors $215
Blitz Boost Control (set to 14psi) $70
450cc injectors (will come with stock 360cc and upgraded 550cc) $500
Walbro 255 in-tank fuel assembly (with hanger & adapters) $120
Megan Racing full 1 piece downpipe 3" w/ cat eliminator $225
Gutted Precats for quicker turbo spool
DnP Y pipe (metal painted black) $120
Custom flashable JESTER ECU (I am including tactrix cable and software) $780 ecu, $220 tactrix
AEM UEGO Wideband $225
Autometer Boost, Oil press, Oil temp, Pyrometer, Water temp gauges $410
HKS Turbo timer with voltage reading $120
Red cloth Corbeau seats with Sparco blue race harness (4 point) INCLUDES rails for this car so the seats slide and adjust $700 seats, $200 belts, $200 brackets


I am including also:

stock red leather power seats, some tears $150
TEC 15g Ported and Clipped turbos ( ready to drop in ) $1200
1g swirly rims with good 245 45 17 tires ( wont fit due to brake upgrade ) $400
1g block, needs rebuild was smoking $150
1g 25 spline transmission, needs conditioning $700
1g front brakes (needs new rotors, swapped 2g brakes for these) $250
complete intake piping
2 alternators, 2 starters, 2 power steering pumps
2 complete cooling systems (water pump, housing, all pipes)
2 rebuilt throttle body, lower/upper intake manifolds $200
2 pairs of spare heads (4 total, mostly complete) $400


I have about 3-4 buckets worth of bolts, nuts, spare small parts, brackets, adapters, gaskets, orings, washers, pulleys, etc. These all came from the multiple tear downs I have done.  I am including with auction.

Pretty much moving on from the tuner scene, and looking at purchasing a home.

The bad that I know of:
some pulleys need to be changed, they make noise....not a big deal when warm everything is quiet
the throw out bearing is making noise, again only when cold, after warm its quiet
a better tune can definetly put down more power, dyno time is out of my budget right now
the car is very low, some rubbing around tight turns. easily adjustable with ksports, takes 2 hours or so...
active exhaust motor is stuck, and the computer for it isnt there ( no negative effect )
power steering cooler was leaking, i bypassed it with a hose. no ill effect. can be replaced cheap with a small dual pass core.



P.S. I have listed prices of most of the parts. If you add them all up, you can see whoever gets this car is win-win. Even if you total it, drive it off a cliff, burn it to the ground, the metal parts alone cover the cost. Of course if you did that...I would find you..
P.S. I know the picture shows dent fender. It was replaced and is NOT dented anymore.
P.S.   THIS IS A FINAL SALE AUCTION. I WILL NOT REFUND YOUR DEPOSIT. I WILL NOT TAKE THE CAR BACK AFTER YOU DRIVE IT AWAY. ALL SALES FINAL. NO RETURNS. CAR RUNS AND DRIVES BUT SOLD AS-IS!

Good luck, happy bids.

Pony-car sales war: Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger [UPDATE]

Fri, Jul 3 2015

Update: An earlier version of this story misstated the 2015 Mustang's weight when compared with previous models. Additionally, we have added comments from Chevrolet in the text. The Ford Mustang has blown past the Chevy Camaro as America's best-selling pony car, and in June, it wasn't even close. The 'Stang outsold the Camaro 11,719 to 8,611 cars. The Camaro remained ahead of the Dodge Challenger, which sold 6,845 units. Even though the Camaro did post an 11.5-percent sales improvement in June, the competition is arguably stronger than at anytime since the 1970s muscle-car era. The Mustang's sales leapt a whopping 53.6 percent, while the Challenger saw a gain of 56 percent. Several factors are weighing down Camaro sales, including its lame duck status. Chevy is launching a new generation of the Camaro this year that's more than 200 pounds lighter, offers a new turbo four-cylinder engine option, and has a nicer interior than the outgoing model. Put simply: wait a few months and you can get a better car. It's also unlikely Chevy will jack up the price much, as it's historically kept the Camaro within reach of everyday enthusiasts. While Chevy fans wait in anticipation for their new sports car, Ford and Dodge have downshifted. The new Mustang, which went on sale last year, is faster and more sophisticated than its predecessor. It also offers a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder, which Ford has credited for the Mustang's recent uptick and makes up 36 percent of the car's sales, Ford analyst Erich Merkle said. View 17 Photos June's performance allowed the Mustang to widen its sales gap with the Camaro this year. Through the first five months, Ford sold 68,290 Mustangs, a 54.4-percent increased compared with 2014. Chevy sold 42,593 Camaros, an 8.7-percent decrease. The Challenger – long the No. 3 pony car in sales volume – has seen its sales surge 41 percent this year to 37,011 units. Spokesman Monte Doran said Chevy expected that 2015 would be a "relatively soft year" for the Camaro. "Mustang is taking advantage of years' worth of pent-up demand for an independent rear suspension," he said. "When Camaro introduced an IRS, in 2009, it helped make us the best-selling performance car in America.

Chrysler's next-gen minivans will get more expensive

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chrysler introduced the value-oriented Great American Package on the base model Chrysler 300 in 2005. That morphed into the American Value Package available as an option on the Dodge Grand Caravan in 2012, which made it the lowest-priced minivan in the country, now with an MSRP of $21,395. Automotive News reports that Chrysler is going to kill the value package when the new Town & Country arrives for 2017, because the new platform and technology of the coming minivan make it "a difficult price point to get to." AN says the next-generation haulers will come in around $26,000 and can go beyond $45,000 with options; clicking every "Add" button we could find on the Town & Country build page, we couldn't get past $43,000 for today's model. That entry pricing in 2017 would eliminate the first three trims on the Dodge option, the American Value Package, the SE that starts at $24,195, and the SE Plus that starts at $24,995. This makes us think the next-generation haulers will take a sizable step upscale in terms of feel, content, and trim, a la the Chrysler 200. In this writer's opinion, if they do as good a job as they've been doing recently, the extra money will be worth it. There have been spy shots and a lot of rumors about it, like the Caravan minivan going away and becoming a crossover, but we'll see it revealed at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show.

FCA updates 700k-vehicle recall to replace ignition switches

Mon, Mar 9 2015

FCA US is revising a previously announced recall of 702,578 minivans and SUVs; now specifying that owners replace their ignition switches, rather than just a component. The campaign affects the 2008-2010 Chrysler Town & Country, 2008-2010 Dodge Grand Caravan and 2009-2010 Dodge Journey. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration initially opened an investigation last summer following complaints about the ignition switches in these models. FCA US (then Chrysler Group) responded with a recall of 695,957 examples of these vehicles because the key could appear to be in the "Run" position but not be fully engaged. If it slipped out, and there was an accident, then the airbags might not deploy. The company had initially planned to install a new detent ring to fix the problem. According to the timeline in a NHTSA document (available here as a PDF), the government agency and FCA US continued their research into the problem. The automaker found that the time needed to create a new ring design and updated software would be longer than replacing the whole ignition switch. The company worked with the supplier Marquardt to negotiate an accelerated schedule to manufacture the extra replacement parts. According to NHTSA, the investigation has now been closed because of FCA's recall. Company spokesperson Eric Mayne confirms to Autoblog via email, "No additional vehicles are affected and all affected customers have already been made aware their vehicles are subject to recall." FCA US sent out an initial notification advising owners of the problem in September 2014. The company will now send out a second letter in April and will replace the parts in two phases. Repairs for affected models from the 2008 and 2009 model years will begin in April, and 2010 examples will start being fixed in August. RECALL Subject : Ignition Switch may Turn Off , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: JUN 26, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V373000 Component(s): AIR BAGS , ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Potential Number of Units Affected: 702,578 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY 2008-2010 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 2008-2010 DODGE JOURNEY 2009-2010 Details Manufacturer: Chrysler Group LLC SUMMARY: This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key.
