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. |

Dodge, Hyundai crowdsourced-funding sites deemed successes
Wed, 05 Jun 2013What's not to love about crowdsourcing? This idea, after all, has given us Kickstarter as well Local Motors, but automakers are starting to use the social platform to sell more cars (or just drum up a little PR). Both Dodge and Hyundai have used "crowd-funding" recently, and while Automotive News is reporting that neither has racked up big sales with this gimmick, both automakers are pleased with the attention.
For Hyundai, it teamed up with website Motozuma.com to help customers crowdsource money for a down payment, and the automaker matched this amount up to $500. Last year, this helped Hyundai sell an extra 1,600 units, a fraction of its total 2012 sales. That figure is far larger than Dodge fared with the Dodge Dart Registry - it netted only two sales and a small number of individual options. This registry did help University of Southern California fraternity crowdsource $18,000 to buy a Dart for a local Meals on Wheels, however. Despite the low sales figures, Dodge and Hyundai are considering their crowdsourcing programs a success since it helped them connect with younger buyers.
NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall
Thu, Jul 30 2015FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.
All-wheel-drive Dodge Challenger GT confirmed by EPA website
Thu, Oct 27 2016The US Environmental Protection Agency accidentally confirmed the upcoming Dodge Challenger GT by posting fuel economy figures for the all-wheel-drive variant of the muscle car. According to FuelEconomy.gov, the Challenger GT, which will come with the 3.6-liter V6 when it's released, is rated to get 18 miles per gallon in the city and 27 miles per gallon on the highway, giving the vehicle a combined rating of 21 miles per gallon. Those figures are slightly lower than the rear-wheel-drive Challenger with the same engine, which gets 19 miles per gallon in the city and 30 miles per gallon on the highway. While previous reports indicated that Dodge is planning to release the all-wheel-drive Challenger GT sometime in 2017, the automaker hasn't confirmed the vehicle. (Mopar's all-wheel-drive concept from last year's SEMA Show is pictured above.) With the EPA putting out the car's official fuel economy figures, the all-wheel-drive muscle car is definitely coming, and should be here before the entire Challenger lineup gets its expected redesign in 2018. And yes, we're still hopeful that the so-called Challenger ADR we saw in spy photos means we'll see all wheel drive and Hellcat power. Because Hellcat everything. Related Video:
