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. |

Ram, Jeep redesigns on hold, Alfa Romeo models may come sooner
Wed, Jun 3 2015Last summer, FCA outlined an ambitious five-year plan that sketched out the company's product intentions for each of its brands through the end of 2018. However, even the best strategies sometimes need tweaking. According to Reuters after speaking with unnamed people at auto suppliers, FCA is now possibly delaying at least a dozen projects in North America for a variety of reasons. From vehicle to vehicle, these postponements allegedly last anywhere from just a few months to over a year. The sources from the suppliers claim that in some cases these tweaks are for engineering and design changes. The next-gen Ram 1500 reportedly has among the shorter delays and is being pushed from mid-2017 to November 2017, according to Reuters. Also, the much-discussed future Jeep Wrangler is allegedly moving a little later to July 2017. Among the vehicles purportedly seeing longer delays, the next-gen Grand Cherokee could get pushed back about a year to 2018. That then forces the launch of the three-row, luxury Grand Wagoneer to be even further away. Jeep's upcoming C-segment CUV and the all-new Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, and Challenger might also see postponements. The one brand allegedly seeing an accelerated plan is Alfa Romeo. Without going into detail, the sources from these suppliers claim that the Italian automaker is getting even more vehicles for its lineup and could get them even faster than planned. "Those plans need to be flexible and fluid, with the potential to add some vehicles, pull some forward and extend the life cycle of others," FCA said to Reuters about all of these allegations. "We look at these programs on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis." Investment in the auto industry has been a major topic for FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne as of late. He believes consolidation is necessary so that companies aren't burning money on the same projects.

Chrysler says its 8-speed transmissions will save 700 million gallons
Thu, Jun 19 2014Chrysler Group's TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission could be earning some serious green bragging rights if the company's projections are correct. The recently widely proliferated automatic gearbox, which is now in more than a million vehicles around the world, is poised to save drivers an estimated 700+ million gallons of fuel over the vehicles' lifetimes (an expected cost savings of $2.5 billion). In addition, Chrysler expects a reduction in CO2 emissions by more than six million metric tons. According to Chrysler, and depending on the vehicle, the TorqueFlite can improve fuel economy. The TorqueFlite autobox features particularly close ratios from fifth to eighth gear (see the press release below for the specific numbers), and uses low-viscosity fluid that doesn't need to be replaced. Transmission software adapts to the driving situation to optimize efficiency based on driver behavior, temperature, grade, stability control, and longitudinal and lateral acceleration. The TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. As evidenced by the wide range of vehicles Chrysler Group has seen fit to equip with the eight-speed transmission, the TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. Since its 2012 introduction, the TorqueFlite has gone from performing cog-swapping duties in Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 models equipped with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 to changing gears in vehicles such as the Pentastar- and Hemi-powered Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee and even the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. For the 2015 model year, the eight-speed is finding its way into even more vehicles with the addition of a third version. In addition to the American-made TorqueFlite 845RE and 8HP70, the new 8HP90 will be manufactured in Saarbrucken, Germany. The 8HP90 is designed for higher torque loads, making it ideal for high-performance vehicles like the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. The already-in-use 8HP70 will expand its duties to be used in 2015 Hemi models such as the Dodge Charger, Challenger, and Challenger SRT8. You can see the list of those benchmarks in Chrysler's press release below.
2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad soldiers on in the Chi
Thu, 06 Feb 2014Introduced to the market in 2008 and updated in 2011, the Dodge Journey crossover has had all the freshness of a retirement village in recent years. Filling a potentially important niche for Dodge as an affordable, family-sized vehicle, the Journey has gotten one last mild refresh here in Chicago. Feast your mild-appearance-package-loving eyes on the 2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad.
We can't be sure if the inspiration for the Crossroad appellation was the 2002 blockbuster film, Crossroads, starring Britney Spears, or the 1986 cult-classic, Crossroads, starring Ralph Macchio, but based on the CUV's newfound boyish charm, we're betting on the Karate Kid.
Dark finish 19-inch wheels, platinum chrome accents and a manly new front fascia tell the world that this isn't the Dodge Journey that they've long since forgotten about. In fairness, the Crossroad is easily the best-looking iteration of the Journey to date, and should be better to live with, too, considering its revised cabin, leather seats and standard Uconnect touchscreen infotainment system.
