It's time to sell my baby. I've run into some financial issues and have to sell asap. It's going to need a clutch job. It will run great for a while until the clutch decides to not disengage. I have to reach in past the front drivers side wheel, through the bolt access hole, rotate the motor maually by turning the crankshaft with a 22mm socket a couple rotations to free the clutch up and I works again. I've taken it to the dealership for a diagnostic and they say it's the throwout bearing going out which is always replaced during a clutch replacement and visa versa.
I simply cannot afford any more repairs. About 2 months ago, I had to replace the alternator and at the same time replaced the timing belt, tensioner, alternator belt, power steering belt, water pump, and battery. The motor and transmission were rebuilt in 2009, about 20,000 miles ago. alot of other things were replaced then as well and I have alot of records of the repairs. I don't race it and I've always maintained it well, Mobile 1 synthetic every 3000 miles of course. It passed Arizona emissions about a month ago.
The wheels / tires are wider than stock it seams. The exhaust has been upgraded to 3" catback, nice deep exhaust sound, but the active exhaust is disconnected for it. The struts were aftermarket when I got the car and the ecs wasn't operational. I replaced those struts with used oem ones.The rear wheel steering still works though. The brakes have been upgraded to the "Mitsubishi Big Brake Kit". The CD player is aftermarket with an amp in the back and a custom box behind the rear seat with two 8in(I think, haven't measured) woofers to save room. The A/C started blowing warm at the end of last summer. The speedometer starts working at about 45mph and above, but doesn't show anything below that. The paint was oxidized on the top surfaces so the previous owner painted over it and didn't do a good job, needless to say, it needs paint. There are some dents on the side panels from doors hitting it in the apartment complex but no accidents or frame damage of any kind. The body lines are straight and the side panels have original paint.
When the clutch is working correctly, this thing runs awesome, lots of power, awesome handling, and smooth shifting. This car is a classic now and I'm going to miss it.
Also, I'm including a Valor 7" LCD in dash folding screen DVD / CD player (not installed), slightly used in a different vehicle, like new, with remote. Also a new Hallman boost controller (never intstalled), and a new Covercraft bra (not installed).
Good Luck.

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. However, the company is only aware of one injury related to the issue, which occurred in a 2006 Dodge Charger in southern Florida. 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. The models are: 2005-2009 Dodge Ram 2500 Pickup 2004-2008 Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup 2006-2009 Dodge Ram 3500 Pickup 2007-2009 Dodge Ram 3500 Cab Chassis 2008-2010 Dodge Ram 4500/5500 Cab Chassis 2008-2009 Sterling 4500/5500 Cab Chassis 2004-2008 Dodge Durango 2007-2008 Chrysler Aspen 2005-2010 Chrysler 300/300C/SRT8 2005-2010 Dodge Charger/Magnum 2005-2011 Dodge Dakota 2006-2010 Mitsubishi Raider Also, there are 438,156 vehicles in the US, according to the NHTSA documents, that need their front passenger's side inflators replaced in the expansion of an earlier regional recall: 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 2003 Dodge Ram 3500 The total number of vehicles from Ford now covered under these campaigns stands at 1,509,535 worldwide.

Mitsubishi bringing SUV 'Legend' to the Chicago Auto Show
Thu, Jan 22 2015Mitsubishi claims that "a legend" is returning to its ranks at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show in February. Its save-the-date to the Windy City event just depicts an indistinguishable crossover sitting on top of a sand dune as the only hint of what the Japanese brand has in store. However, according to company spokesperson Alex Fedorak this isn't an entirely new vehicle. Mitsubishi is giving the GC-PHEV concept (pictured below) its North American debut, after originally unveiling it at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show. While it's purely a concept, the vehicle is "a designer's rendering of what a new Montero could look like," said Fedorak to Autoblog. While Mitsu is not committing to putting the chunky CUV into production yet, the press conference is going to "talk about what role if any it plays in our future," he said.
