Well now I'm broke, but it's the second best buy other then my buell

[sledhead007]

Yup I pulled the trigger and just bought my dads friends 97 3000gt vr4. I wish I could have put the 6500$ into my buell but I don't think they handle well in the snow. But god damn is this car fast and a blast to drive! It's like a buell with 4 wheels and awd!!

4 wheel steering too, right? Those are sweet cars. Congrats and enjoy.

 

[sledhead007]

Yup all wheel steering and twin turbo. This thing ***** and gets

[sledhead007]

sorry about the pic size and quality. but this is it

i about bought a VR4 Gallant a few years back, i wish i would have because it was a great deal!! 4500 for a car that had less than 90k on the odometer.

I did test drive it, and JEEEEEEEZZZZ was that an awesome car! a true sleeper if i've ever seen one!

So you got yourself a twin-turbo stealth that's what dodge called it,anyway watch it they go boom same engine as a 3 liter minivan,your looking at head gaskets,valve guides,rings,these engines run so hot they clog the oil lines to the turbos and god help you if the timing belt snaps DOHC V-6 (INTERFERINCE ENGINE)Remember to let idle for one minute before you shut the key off!!!! I was a mopar tech for 20 years,short block and heads took me a week 8 hours a day it comes out the bottom by the way,the front DIFF is a real peach

truth hurts

Cool car! I never knew much about them so just did some research. At first I was relatively unimpressed with ~315 hp and ~315 lbft, but it says it runs the 1/4 mile in 13.7 sec. Not to shabby for a nearly 4,000 lb car with (relatively) low hp and torque numbers. When I saw 315 hp I was thinking 14's or 15's in the 1/4 mile.

Looks like it has a lot of other cool features as well.

Good buy

 

[sledhead007]

Well thanks for the heads up.... Kinda. I grew up in a family owned auto shop. It has a new timing belt head gaskets. My dads friend is a f ing genius when it comes to cars. He has a 1200hp Daytona boat all engine work him self, he re did all the oil lines and rebuild the turbos. But again thanks for looking out.

 

[snrusnak]

The engine looks pretty stout. Forged crank, 4 bolt main caps....

Cool ride-- I always like the stealth / 3000's

 

[WALLSXB]

I worked for Mitsubishi from 1990-1994 as an area part/service rep. They had really awesome cars in that time with the 3000GT and the Eclipse GSX (turbo,awd) and the Galant VR4. I remember the launch of the 3000GT and was fortunate enough to thrash a bunch of them. What Tyler said about the mechanicals is true but just go out and enjoy the hell out of it man . [up]

A guy i knew when i was in tech school had a tuned up AWD stealth. Drove it a couple of times... Wicked fun, especially drifting on gravel. Helped him put a Stillen down pipe and full length 3" borla exhaust on it. sounded friggin awesome! Enjoy
