Jensen Flip Up Screen Cd/DVD Player (Unsure of model, was in the car when I bought it)
May have aftermarket speakers from previous owner, since they sounded good enough for me to never feel like upgrading them.
2xJL 10's In a ported box, and a JL Amp (I'll have to check and see which models they were.)

Extras if wanted:

Aftermarket JDM Style Unpainted Rear bumper (Not sure of the brand, the guy I bought my other Evo from gave it to me because he didn't want it anymore)
Stock Exhaust
Stock Intercooler
Stock Springs (suspension)
Possibly Stock Intercooler Piping and intake if I still have it in the attic.


Condition

Small crack in front middle of bumper from a friend bumping into a parking space. Black stock lip is on the car from my other Evo. Normal Wear on steering wheel, Small Stain on driver seat and scuff on driver side of rear bumper (unknown origin of stain and scuff, was there when I purchased the vehicle). Stock wing was painted apex silver due to the carbon fiber being sun damaged when I purchased the vehicle. Left over paint from the wing was used to touch up the scuff on the rear bumper. The trunk carpet is in place, but the sub box was not bolted down and has slid around a bit and messed it up a little. I can take pictures if requested. Hopefully my honesty on the car doesn't hurt the sale, but I drove 4 hours to Houston, TX to pick up my Black Evo, and the seller was more or less honest about the car and has been helpful post sell with any questions I had about the mods he had made to it. I am more than happy to keep in touch with the buyer and answer any future questions they may have, but the mods are pretty straight forward.

Overall Interior/Exterior 9/10  - several small barely noticeable scratches/blemishes that I can notice, but no one else ever does unless I point them out. Most people don't even notice the small crack on front bumper or scuff on rear unless I point it out to them. Car has been garage kept since I purchased it with the exception of the last couple of weeks since my new Evo is in its place in the garage now.

I've always used mobil 1 extended performance oil and filter (The 15,000 mile oil) and changed it every 3-5k miles. I might be able to find receipts for some of the parts, I know I saw the one for the clutch/flywheel when I was cleaning it out.

Car is stock motor/stock turbo and was bone stock when I bought it. Car is unmolested. Carfax listed me as the 5th owner, but from what I can tell from it I am the 2nd non dealership owner. The car had 55k miles on it when I purchased it. Clean Carfax Report is available if requested.


Reason for Selling:

I bought a 2003 Tarmac Black one recently since I've always wanted a black one. The car I'm selling has never broken down or left me stranded in the 3-4 years and 40k miles I've had it, so it was no issue buying one a year older for me.

Call or text 225-seven seven 3-four424 if you call and I don't answer leave a voicemail. I work in plants and can't always have my phone on me, so texting is probably the best bet for initial contact.

The car is listed locally, and a few more miles will be put on it due to test rides for potential buyers, but that is all I have been driving it since I purchased the new one. 

SHIPPING/DELIVERY:   LOCAL PICKUP ONLY

PAYMENT: CASH OR CASHIER'S CHECK

IF REQUESTED, I AM WILLING TO MEET UP WITH A NEARBY MECHANIC SHOP OF YOUR CHOICE TO HAVE THEM LOOK OVER THE VEHICLE (AT BUYER'S EXPENSE IF THERE IS A FEE) IF YOU ARE FROM OUT OF STATE AND WOULD BE TRAVELING HERE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE.

If more pictures or additional information is needed, I will accommodate this to the best of my ability. (Pictures of specific areas in question) I travel with work, so may or may not be near the car in the event a request is made for pictures, but I should be able to get a coworker or my girlfriend to snap some shots if I am away and it is needed.

Thanks for looking.

Mitsubishi recalling 166k cars, crossovers over stall risk

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

Mitsubishi is recalling 165,923 vehicles in the US because it's possible for the drive belt to detach from their engines, potentially causing a stall. Specifically, the campaign covers 2008-2011 model-year examples of the Lancer, Lancer Evolution (pictured above) and Outlander as well as the 2009-2011 Lancer Sportback and 2011 Outlander Sport. All of the affected models use some version of the brand's 4B1 four-cylinder engine.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the engine pulley can wear causing the drive belt to slip off. If this happens, the alternator, cooling fan and hydraulic power steering can all stop working, and obviously, any of those things could make driving unsafe. However, if the belt detaches, then a warning light should come on in the cabin.
To fix the problem, Mitsubishi dealers will replace the original belt with a redesigned rubber part and will inspect the pulley. If worn, it'll also be replaced free of charge.

Junkyard Gem: 1990 Mitsubishi Montero

Sun, Jun 23 2019

Americans had been buying Mitsubishi-made pickups (badged as Plymouth Arrows and Dodge Ram 50s) for the better part of a decade when the Americanized version of the Pajero SUV appeared in American Mitsubishi showrooms. Naturally, there was a Dodge-badged version as well (known as the Raider), but finally Americans could buy a bouncy, off-road-capable SUV with big Mitsubishi badges all over it. The first-generation (1985-1991) Monteros have become quite rare, but I found this high-mile example in a Denver yard a few weeks back. You won't often see a late-1980s/early-1990s Mitsubishi with more than 200,000 miles on the clock, but Monteros held their value longer than Mighty Maxes and Mirages. I couldn't find any meaningful rust on this one, but the interior looked pretty tired. Under the hood we find the ubiquitous 3.0-liter 6G72 V6 engine, which found its way into everything including Chrysler minivans, Mitsubishi Diamante luxury sedans and even 1990s Hyundai Sonatas. Mitsubishi got its money's worth out of this engine, which stayed in production from 1986 through 2011 (in China). Most of the early Raiders and Monteros I've found in junkyards had manual transmissions, but this one shows the direction American SUV buyers were headed in 1990: two pedals, no shifting. It still lacks the dozen cupholders of later US-market trucks, of course. The Montero name went on Pajeros sold in North and South America, while UK-market trucks got Shogun badging. This beefy grab bar for the front-seat passenger suggests the kind of rugged driving environments not much like the highway commutes now used by SUVs in North America.

Mitsubishi celebrates 40 years in UK with Evo festooned with aftermarket bits

Thu, 27 Mar 2014

Mitsubishi has an anniversary to celebrate. It has been selling cars in the UK for the last 40 years, and in recognition it is launching the Lancer Evolution X FQ-440 MR special edition with some real performance upgrades from top aftermarket companies. The models will be limited to 40 units in Frost White and priced at £50,000 each.
The special Evo uses a tweaked ECU to boost power to 440 horsepower and 412 pound-feet of torque with a six-speed, twin-clutch Sports Shift Transmission, and the engine receives a long list of augmentations with an intake, intercooler piping and tubular manifold from Janspeed, plus motorsport-specification, high-flow fuel injectors. To keep up with the acceleration, it gets six-piston front brake calipers and upgraded rear brakes behind 18-inch BBS forged alloy wheels. The suspension is lowered by 35 millimeters (1.378 inches) in the front and 30mm (1.181 inches) in the rear with Eibach coil springs.
The interior gets improvements to fit the performance upgrades. Leather-covered Recaro seats are found up front, along with an eight-speaker, Rockford Fosgate audio setup complete with a subwoofer. Navigation is standard with a seven-inch LCD touchscreen. The special edition definitely won't be making it to the US, but it's nice to see Mitsubishi commemorating itself with a performance model. Scroll down to get the full specs in the press release.
