1992 Dodge Stealth R/t Turbo Awd, No Reserve! (like Mitsubishi 3000gt Vr-4) on 2040-cars
Santa Ana, California, United States
|
For Sale, AS-IS.
I’m selling my 1992 Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo that I’ve owned
for the last 17 years. I’m a mechanical engineer so I’m going to tell you
everything I know about it – This car needs to go to the right kind of owner. Currently has starter relay issue requiring you to connect a jumper underhood to get it to start. Drives very well, and fast. Handles amazingly well: Intrax 1.75” lowering springs, KYB GR-2 Shocks, 3SX adjustable rear lower control arms. 19” x 9” Moda wheels –only a few years old Nice exterior/ paint. Almost always garaged. New transmission installed at about 80k miles New transfer case installed at about 105k miles (factory recall) Bridgestone Potenza RE091A Pole Position tires (50-75% of tread left) Same owner for last 17 years. I have all records on it since 61k miles. ALL RECORDS -- oil changes, every part changed, all gas fill-ups. I wrote everything down. Borla stainless steel exhaust and 3SX downpipe – new in 2011, has only about 6k miles on it Stock engine except for Intake / Exhaust – no problems smogging it, have C.A.R.B. sticker for K&N intake. It was just smogged last August, but I will get it smogged again for the next buyer. Awesome stereo – Top of the line Alpine and competition Blaupunkt amp, JBL 12” sub, Kenwood 6.5” front door speakers, Alpine tweeters, sound deadening throughout. Clutch was new at about 120k: South Bend TZ Clutch with Fidanza aluminum flywheel Engine oil has been Mobile One 10W30 since I purchased the car with 60k, and changed every 3000 miles. Maintenance followed by the book – owner is a mechanical engineer. HKS Boost gage – Although the car has never run higher than stock boost. MSD Coil wires ’97-98 3000GT hoop spoiler
The not so good: Has a slight stumble at 2000 rpm. I just had the ECU rebuilt by AVPros, and it
made no difference. You would have to know the car very well like I do to detect this... the engine pulls very strongly. Driver’s seat is worn through on side bolster. Custom leather seat skins for $300, and it
takes about 8 hours of labor to install – I can give you contact info for this. Passenger seat has some wear but is not torn at all.
Transmission has a bit of gear whine, and has for last 35k
miles or so since an end cap came off letting contaminants in. The transmission was flushed and sealed back
up at the time. Brakes pulsate lightly. I am including a turned set of used Stillen Cross-drilled rotors and new EBC Green Stuff brake pads, in case you want to have completely smooth braking. Especially in very humid or wet weather, there is a starter relay which sometimes refuses to fire. When this happens, you have to run a jumper wire under the hood to get it to start. Similar issue in humid weather: there is a relay for the ABS system which sometimes sticks on. I am including a used set of good replacement relays. When this happens you have to disconnect the battery. The left rear tire has a slow leak due to a bad leak repair/ patch. It needs air about once a month, and can’t be fixed without a new tire. The car is aligned, but it pulls slightly left all the time. If you rotate the tires, you can find a combination which does not do this… one of the tires has high conicity (it is cone-shaped). I rotate the tires to improve tire wear, but this is a side effect. The lowered suspension makes the conicity / pulling more apparent. Car was in a left door sideswipe back in 1999 or so while I owned it. The door was repaired then and is as good as new (the shop did a really great job or I'd have never kept the car this long). Clean title. It is not originally a California car -- has Federal spec emissions and went through some salty winters. The underhood appearance is a bit corroded, as are some of the chassis and underbody parts. There is a tiny patch of rust on the rear deck where the factory spoiler used to be. It looks great on the outside though, from about 10 feet. There are some scratches on the rear bumper, and a little bit on the right side. There are a few door dings. These are all the issues I know about. Any one of these issues you could leave alone and just drive like this, or try to improve. |

Takata adds millions to recall expansion in US [UPDATE]
Thu, May 28 2015UPDATE: Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker has advised Autoblog that of the 1,509,535 total vehicles worldwide that the company is recalling, 966,504 of them are new additions for this expanded safety campaign. Last week, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced that the Takata airbag inflator recalls would expand to an estimated 33.8 million vehicles in the US. However at the time, automakers weren't sure specifically which of their models might be affected under this enlarged campaign. Now, the numbers for BMW, FCA, Ford, and Mitsubishi are being released by the agency. Additionally, Honda is outlining the broadening of its own campaign. BMW's recall amounts to 420,661 vehicles in the US, an increase from 140,696 previously. All of the following models need their front, driver's side airbag replaced: 2002-2005 BMW 325i/325xi/330i/330xi Sedan 2002-2005 BMW 325xi/325i Sportswagon 2002-2006 BMW 330Ci/325Ci/M3 Convertible 2002-2006 BMW 325i/330i/M3 Coupe 2002-2003 BMW M5/540i/525i/530i Sedan 2002-2003 BMW 540i/525i Sportswagon 2003-2004 BMW X5 3.0i/4.4i BMW has received no reports of any injures or deaths from this problem in its vehicles. FCA has 5,224,845 vehicles globally in need of inflator replacements, according to its statement.

There are 4,747,202 vehicles worldwide from the company that are affected on the front, driver's side. Among these, 4,066,732 are in the US, 374,508 are in Canada, and the rest are in other countries.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
