Waukesha, Wisconsin, United States
|
For sale is my 1993 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 w/ Twin Turbo AWD.
Roughly 95,000 miles on the car with only a few hundred miles on a brand new
Pampena motor! Also, recently repainted so it looks amazing. The leather seats
are in great shape and don't have the typical wear that you find on the side of
the drivers seat. Previous owner bought it from Previous owner did a lot of work on this car and spent thousands on new parts that now only have a few hundred miles on them. List includes: 3.1L forged Pampena motor (over $3100) Refreshed heads Poly Motor Mounts New OEM: water pump, oil pump, timing belt, timing tensioner New 18x9 Aftermarket aluminum radiator Brand new stereo head unit and Boston Acoustics speakers Aftermarket gauges in dash (above climate controls) ECU capacitors replaced 3" 3SX downpipe and test pipe ($330) ABS, ECS Delete All wheel steering delete kit from Pampena Motorsports ($130) Rear subframe bushings replaced with poly New clutch master cylinder Stage 4 racing clutch from 3SX and light weight flywheel ($629) Braced transmission housing 3SX bracket ($125) New output shaft and transfer case spool - stronger than stock ($419) 3SX Pre-turbo intake piping (red) ($99) 3SX Spark plug wires ($69) HKS Blow-off valve Brand new 99' lifters Brand new power steering pump Drilled and slotted rotors New window tint As you can see, a lot of time and money invested in this car. It runs great, sounds excellent running. I'm sure I am forgetting to mention some of the little improvements and upgrades like the Pampena plate that covers the spark plug wires on the valve cover or the 3SX oil cap. Oh, the pop-up headlights work perfectly too which is very cool. Now for the things that still need some work. The speedometer doesn't work. Local shop said $30 to diagnose this but I haven't had the time to drop it off there yet. It's probably the speed sensor either disconnected or needing to be replaced but I'm not sure. The e-brake handle welds that hold it in have broken off from the previous owner. Sounds weird but it apparently is a common problem from what I read on the forums. The e-brake handle is included with the car and just needs to be welded in or re-bolted into the car. The stereo surround plate that goes around the radio is missing. $25 on 3SX website. The rear windshield wiper has been removed and the radio antenna was removed. Both were replaced with black rubber plugs. Overall, an awesome car that has had a lot of time and attention given to it. Ready to drive around today or a project you can continue. With some fuel system upgrades and bigger turbos you could have a real beast of a car. Leaving it as-is and you have a great ride that will turn heads everywhere you go. If you are looking for a VR4, look no further as you won't find one with a new Pampena motor and all of these other maintenance items done to it. You could spend less and have faded paint, worn out seats, and wonder when your ECU's capacitors will start to leak. OR you can spend more and buy one with huge turbos and NOS and wonder when your transfer case and axles will go. This car is the perfect balance between stock and performance. This one is well cared for. Happy bidding. Any questions, I will do my best to answer. Email me at dnolan16@att.net $500 deposit required within 48 Hours of auction end. Balance due within 7 days. Do not bid unless you intend to buy. Buyer is responsible for arranging and paying for shipping. I can have someone available anytime to assist with the pick up process if giving proper notice and details. Car is sold as-is, no warranty. VIN JA3BN74K6PY037563 |

Japan may aid carmakers facing U.S. tariff threat
Wed, Sep 12 2018TOKYO — Japan is considering giving carmakers fiscal support including tax breaks to offset the impact from trade frictions with the United States and a sales-tax hike planned for next year, government sources told Reuters on Wednesday. Going into a second round of trade talks with the United States on Sept. 21, Japan is hoping to avert steep tariffs on its car exports and fend off U.S. demands for a bilateral free trade agreement that could put it under pressure to open politically sensitive markets, like agriculture. "If the trade talks pile pressure on Japan's car exports, we would need to consider measures to support the auto industry," a ruling party official said on condition of anonymity because of sensitivity of the matter. The auto industry accounts for about 20 percent of Japan's overall output and around 60-70 percent of the country's trade surplus with the United States, making it vulnerable to U.S. action against Japanese exports. Japan's biggest automakers and components suppliers fear they could take a significant hit if Washington follows through on proposals to hike tariffs on autos and auto parts to 25 percent. Policymakers also worry that an increase in the sales tax from 8 percent to 10 percent planned for October 2019, could cause a slump in sales of big-ticket items such as cars and home. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has twice postponed the tax hike after the last increase from 5 percent in 2014 dealt a blow to private consumption, which accounts for about 60 percent of the economy. To prevent a pullback in demand after the tax hike, the government may consider large fiscal spending later when it draws up its budget for next year, government sources said. "One option may be to greatly reduce or abolish the automobile purchase tax," one of the government sources said. The government is also considering cuts in the automobile tax and automobile weight tax to help car buyers, the source added.

Consumer Reports: Ford Fusion fun but flawed; Mitsubishi i-MiEV slow, chintzy [w/videos]
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Waiting for a Ford compliment from Consumer Reports these days is like waiting for a low-cost new product from Apple. So we weren't really expecting a glowing review of the 2013 Ford Fusion when CR got its hands on the car. The institute's crew bought three different versions of the Fusion (Hybrid, 1.6-liter EcoBoost and a Titanium with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost) to put through its barrage of tests, and while we aren't too surprised by some of the findings, they're still interesting nonetheless.
CR praises the Fusion for its "eye-catching" design and says that the sportier Titanium trim level is the best-handling midsize sedan they've ever tested, but that's about where the good news ends for Ford. The Fusion Hybrid also posted the best-ever fuel economy CR has recorded in a midsize sedan, but the only problem is that their number was 39 miles per gallon combined - far less than Ford's 47 mpg rating for city, highway and combined. As expected, CR also dinged the Fusion for its MyFord Touch, but some of the other gripes about the car include a cramped cabin and poor fit and finish.
Other Ford products tested this time around include the Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid. Like the Fusion, CR's observed fuel economy of 37 mpg for the C-Max fell well short of Ford's advertised 47-mpg rating, and both cars were criticized for the use of MyFord Touch. CR notes that the Focus Electric's interior is also cramped, with the battery pack taking up a lot of cargo space.
Nissan names Makoto Uchida as next CEO
Tue, Oct 8 2019TOKYO — Nissan named Makoto Uchida, the head of its Chinese business, as its next CEO, picking an executive known for close ties to top shareholder Renault and for a frank, straight-talking manner that has marked him as an outsider. By selecting Senior Vice President Uchida, Nissan's board has gone with someone slightly at odds with its traditional corporate culture. He joined the carmaker mid-career in 2003, a rarity in a country where top executives usually spend their entire working lives at the same company. Known for his unflagging work ethic and relentless focus on cost control, Uchida was described by one long-time associate who spoke on condition of anonymity as a "foreigner with a Japanese face" — direct and to the point in conversations. He will be joined by newly appointed Chief Operating Officer (COO) Ashwani Gupta, currently COO of junior partner Mitsubishi Motors, in trying to find new ways to revive a business that has been struggling for months with plunging profits, management scandal and tensions with Renault. Japan's second-largest automaker has been shaken in particular by the arrest of former Chairman Carlos Ghosn last year on allegations of financial misconduct, which he denies, and the more recent departure of CEO Hiroto Saikawa after he admitted to being improperly overpaid. Whether the 58-year-old former theology student can deliver a miracle turnaround — particularly at Nissan's business in the United States — and repair ties with Renault will now be a focus for investors. "The biggest business challenge for Nissan is speeding up," the head of Nissan's nominations committee, Masakazu Toyoda, told a news conference. "Speedy decision making is a challenge that Uchida raised, and to this end he said that he wants to empower people as much as possible, so we decided to ask Uchida to take on the CEO role." One source close to Renault described the selection as "a victory for the alliance", saying that both Uchida and Gupta knew the business and were ready to help Nissan recover. 'ISN'T REALLY JAPANESE' Before his ouster, Ghosn had been working on a plan for a full merger of Renault and Nissan, but had met resistance in Japan, which is concerned about French influence in the alliance. The French government is a major Renault shareholder. Relations were further strained this year when Renault held abortive merger talks with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles.
