1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX

Original AWD model, excellent shape, not abused, 99000 miles.

I purchased this car a few years ago and stored in our garage.  I purchased this as a project car to re-build, or to build as a race car, but over time I lost interest.  The car ran but had white smoke coming out of the exhaust and the owner said that it had a knock noise.  One issue turned out to be a bad turbo which was replaced with a used one, exact stock same type, which cured the smoke problem.  I took the pan down and found main and rod bearings to be in tact, in excellent shape and engine was very clean, oil was changed often.  I did find a bearing in the pan, it was the center bearing from the balance shaft on the left side, toward the front of the car.  I put the pan back on, and got it running.  It still makes noise but it seems to be coming from the transfer case unit not the engine.  The car does run, will drive forward and backward, but will need to be fixed before it could be considered driveable.  Everything from the sunroof, tilt wheel, power windows, power seat all work, the air conditioning is cold, the leather interior is in excellent condition, the exterior paint is amazing on this car, plus the exterior trim is in excellent condition.  Looks like the brakes are new, rotors were replaced with the drilled/slotted after market type and the tires are all in good condition.  I replaced the battery (new) a few months ago when I decided to sell it, and over time I have a list of parts which I purchased that will go with it.  There is a new front mount intercooler 29x8x3.5 w/2.5, a new TD05 polished Turbo, a new Walpro GSS342 fuel pump, a gasket set,  used parts such as a coil on plug set, extra spark plugs, extra coil, extra throttle body, headlight bulbs, extra set of rear lights, body engine stress bar, a auto meter pyrometer, hks oil cover, extra used head complete valves to cams.

This car is in excellent shape for someone who wants a AWD GSX to build for racing or just for the street, fewer of these in this shape are around.

This car does not come with any warranties and is sold "as is", I will answer all questions as best as I can and everything listed will come with the auction.  The car should be towed to avoid any further damage.

Good Luck.

2017 Tokyo Motor Show | Mega Gallery

Wed, Oct 25 2017

The 2017 Tokyo Motor Show has been a big and busy one. It's also had machinery ranging from beautiful to bizarre. But there's been something for everyone. Companies such as Honda and Subaru brought performance oriented vehicles, Toyota showcased a wide array of funky and practical concepts, and Yamaha even broke away from motorcycles to do another car concept. You can check all of these vehicles out, and more in the galleries below. 2018 Honda Gold Wing: View 5 Photos Honda Neo Sports Cafe Concept: View 5 Photos Honda Riding Assist-e Concept: View 7 Photos Honda Sports EV Concept: View 5 Photos Honda Super Cub: View 3 Photos Isuzu FD-SI and Elf EV: View 9 Photos Lexus LS+ Concept: View 18 Photos Mazda Kai Concept: View 18 Photos Mazda Vision Coupe Concept: View 15 Photos Mitsubishi e-Evolution Concept: View 8 Photos Nissan IMx Concept: View 29 Photos Nissan Leaf Nismo Concept: View 8 Photos Subaru Viziv Performance Concept: View 12 Photos Toyota Century and Crown: View 7 Photos Toyota Concept-i Series: View 16 Photos Toyota GR HV SPORTS Concept: View 6 Photos Toyota Tj Cruiser: View 12 Photos Yamaha Concepts (Cross Hub, MOTOROiD, MWC-4, Motobot): View 5 Photos Related Video: Tokyo Motor Show Honda Isuzu Lexus Mazda Mitsubishi Nissan Subaru Toyota

Mitsubishi wants to bring a plug-in hybrid Montero to the US

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

As Mitsubishi's turnaround takes hold, we can talk less about the company's survival in the US market and more about what kinds of products we might see in the future: there's a hybrid Evo on the way and its joint venture with Renault-Nissan will deliver a C-segment sedan. Furthermore, it might even deliver a dividend to its shareholders next year.
In addition to Mitsubishi announcing its intent to focus on SUVs, pickup trucks and crossovers, company president Osamu Masuko gave an interview to Automotive News saying that the plan is for model lines to have two or three power train options: gas, plug-in hybrid, diesel. Believing that fuel economy standards will force the expansion of the plug-in hybrid market, Masuko wants to bring a PHEV Pajero to the US (the Montero in our market) because it will restore the brand's place in the full-size SUV segment with a well known nameplate, and help the company reach its goal of making PHEVs 20 percent of its product offering.
We love the idea of a new Montero - and we hope there's a traditional gas model that would come with the PHEV - the question is what would it look like? The Concept GC-PHEV we saw at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show could offer clues, but with Masuko listing the SUV as the company's second most popular model behind pickups, how daring could designers get with it? On the other hand, if you compare the Concept PX-MiEV shown at Tokyo in 2011, the similarity to the production Outlander is more than one might expect for a crossover that's become a major seller for the brand. With an introduction due in 2015 or 2016, we shouldn't have to wait long to find out. Regrettably, there's still no word on the return of a Mitsubishi pickup truck.

Nissan's plan to supply US Mitsubishi dealers with family sedan stalls

Tue, Jan 27 2015

Mitsubishi has quietly had some big success recently. The Japanese brand sold 77,643 vehicles in the US for all of 2014, a 24.8 percent jump over 2013. While still relatively small overall (Ford sold 74,355 F-Series trucks just in December, for example), it shows definite growth for the sometimes forgotten automaker. Unfortunately, the latest news might not help the company's future expansion. The proposed partnership of Mitsubishi and the Renault-Nissan Alliance on at least one midsize sedan for the US market is off the table, according to Automotive News. The company informed sellers that the collaboration had fallen through during a National Automobile Dealers Association meeting. "I told them that the plan has stalled," said Don Swearingen, executive vice president of Mitsubishi Motors North America, to Automotive News. "And I said that's really all I can tell you at this time." Under the original partnership, Mitsubishi was supposed to get a D-segment sedan that would have been built at the Renault-Samsung factory in Busan, South Korea. The automakers were also negotiating for Mitsu to get a C-segment four-door as a global model and developing an electric kei car for Japan together, due in 2016. While the sedan is gone, Mitsubishi isn't completely bereft of improved products in the pipeline. The Mirage Sedan is being launched in the US, and the Outlander is supposed to get a redesign for the 2016 model year. According to Automotive News, the Outlander Sport and Lancer are also due for refreshes in 2016, and a new Mirage is on the way.
