SOLID!  Great driver! According to the gurus at the '3S enthusiast club' , this should be running +/- 500hp , which is the most you can get with stock ECU and injectors running 14-16 lbs of boost.

Simply accomplished with 13g (up from 9g ) turbos. K&N air filter,  free flow exhaust, hard wired upgraded Denso fuel pump and a Blitz boost controller.  Handling has been improved with quality lower springs and 18 in rims designed specifically for this car. Currently running Pirelli P Zero all season which are remarkably grippy. Upgraded drilled/slotted Powerslot discs with upgraded street/track pads.

  Aftermarket race seats, 3 inch 4 point belts keep you in place. Extra gauges keep you informed and avoid abusing the drive train. Larger Tach with shift lights and rev limiter, true boost gauge, and live fuel mixture display gauge.

     Miles?   Sounds like a lot , however, no accidents, no rust, the unibody is solid.  No weaknesses.  I have never raced the car (no track , autocross, hillclimbs,or dragstrip). I have other cars for that. Used primarily for visiting family requiring long trips. Easily do 1000 miles and be wanting for more. 400 mile range getting 22 mpg at 80mph average. Never hesitate to pass! The drivetrain is solid. newer dealer installed transmission, clutch, transfer case, drive shaft, and recent rebuilt heads, newer front turbo and recent rebuilt rear turbo. No oil leaks or smoke.  Yeah, it's twenty years old but it is a driver and properly maintained. Always quality synthetic oil.

   Cosmetics are not a priority for me. It's a 20 footer. Lots of touch up dabs and several small dents, nothing serious!  Less is more as I removed the aftermarket aluminum rear dual wing that came on the car. 

    Most of these cars were upgraded poorly and abused. This one is for enjoying on the street. With all the branding blocked out people always wonder what kind of car it is. The bright Caracas red

 leads a lot of people to think expensive exotic  .  I briefly badged the car like a Ferrari, not missing a detail. Most of the pics are from then. Now removed, all the bits and pieces are available.

No mistake buying this one.........

Should you buy an EV?

Mon, Aug 17 2015

Gas prices are hitting the skids and EVs are following suit; nearly every model in today's market has experienced a double-digit decline in sales – with the always notable exception of the Tesla Model S. Some EVs are in the last year of their generation while others have been half-heartedly designed and engineered to fulfill federal government quotas. The two non-Tesla front runners, the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf, are in the unfortunate position of offering customers "2015" vehicles that were designed with 2011 in mind. Yet there's plenty of love in the air. Nissan has built over 180,000 Leafs worldwide, and chances are you will be seeing a second electric vehicle accompanying the Leaf when the new generation is released in the coming months. The Chevy Volt now offers the highest customer satisfaction out of any car or truck sold in North America. Forget the luxury cars, the sports cars, the family trucksters, and even the rolling flagship that guides Tesla's jaw dropping valuation on Wall Street. You want happy with your EV? The brand that's rocking the segment right now is Chevy. It's been doing so for a while. The EV market is poised to become a lot more sophisticated over the next 18 months with the three leading manufacturers – Tesla, General Motors, and Nissan – launching five brand new models along with no fewer than 16 other manufacturers making many of their bread and butter cars available as plug-in hybrids. So, if you want to keep your money as far away from the Arab dictatorships and Russian mafia as Mercury is from Pluto, and enjoy your commute, we're more than ready to do our part! So let's begin with the most important question. What's Your Range? How much driving do you generally do in a day? If the answer to that question is 50 miles or fewer, an all-electric vehicle like the Nissan Leaf may be the best ingredient for your driving recipe. This is especially true if you have a second vehicle you can use for the occasional longer drive or are willing to rent for the weekend. But here's a little surprise for you. The upcoming Chevy Volt was designed to be driven in all-electric mode for over 50 miles. Fifty-three, to be exact. Plus, the Volt's battery has experienced a lot fewer deterioration issues than the Nissan Leaf's due in part to the Volt's liquid-cooled battery, which also uses a lot less of its capacity than the air-cooled Leaf's does.

NHTSA begins inquiry into Mitsubishi fuel economy

Fri, Apr 22 2016

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration wants to make sure Mitsubishi doesn't falsify fuel economy ratings in the US like the company does in Japan. "We've requested information from Mitsubishi about this issue," a NHTSA spokesperson told Reuters. The person didn't provide details about the specific models the regulator wanted to know more about. At this time, there's no evidence of fuel economy inaccuracies for any North American models. The affected vehicles in Japan so far are 625,000 small kei-class cars, including the Mitsubishi eK, eK Space, Nissan Dayz, and Dayz Roox, which Mitsu produces for Nissan. However, Japanese regulators are taking a closer look at other models and gave the company a week to hand over test data. A newspaper there claims Mitsubishi allegedly used "non-Japanese test methodology" on the RVR, Outlander, Pajero, and Minicab MiEV. NHTSA's look into Mitsubishi comes at the same time the Department of Justice is scrutinizing Daimler for possible emissions anomalies. "Daimler will consequently investigate possible indications of irregularities and of course take all necessary action," the German automaker said in a statement. The company asserts the DOJ's inquiry is unrelated to a lawsuit from owners, which alleges the BlueTec emissions control system is designed to turn off at low temperatures. Related Video:

Mitsubishi delays Outlander PHEV yet again for the US

Fri, Jul 29 2016

Mitsubishi was so close this time. The company showed the US-spec version of the plug-in Outlander crossover at this year's New York auto show, with plans for it to go on sale in the summer or fall of 2016. But once again, the beleaguered green family hauler has been delayed. HybridCars learned from Mitusbishi public relations managers for both the US and Canada that the Outlander PHEV won't go on sale until next summer. No specific reasons for the delay were given outside of a need "to meet a level of competitiveness that will exceed customer expectations." While we hope for Mitsubishi's sake the company releases the best product it can make, we don't think the expectations of our market will be that high, since there are no plug-in hybrid SUVs in the Outlander's class and price range. Unfortunately delays have been a recurring problem for this model. We first thought it would arrive in 2014 after launching in Japan. But ever since the original announcement, problems including battery production issues and regulatory demands have prevented the Outlander PHEV's US introduction. In the meantime, Japan and Europe have had the crossover for a few years. The car has since been refreshed, and we were promised that updated model but no dice yet. HybridCars also points out that the Outlander PHEV has been the best-selling plug-in hybrid in Europe. We imagine it could be a major success here since it combines plug-in tech with the ever-popular crossover body style, but we won't know until next year. At least as long as it doesn't get delayed again. Related Video: News Source: HybridCARSImage Credit: Drew Phillips Green Mitsubishi Crossover Hybrid PHEV
