Los Angeles, California, United States

Up for sale is my 2013 Mitsubishi Evolution GSR. I have always wanted to own either an STi or an Evo X. I live near Angeles crest highway and would frequently hit the canyons with the vehicle and it is an amazing car to drive.The motor seized @ 5500 miles after a 30 mile drive from orange county. Cause of the failure was never determined and the motor was replaced under warranty no questions asked. I have the receipt from 2 days ago showing all the work that was done under warranty by Mitsubishi. The service manager took great care of me and once it was decided that it was under warranty, work began and was completely quickly. I was provided a Rental car from Enterprise during this time 


I am an older Evo owner (34) so I had no interest in modifying the drivetrain. I already have a track car that makes 590ft./lbs and 540whp. I just wanted a sporty daily driver to zip around town in. That's the best part about the Evo X is that it comes from the factory a well tuned machine. It is my daily driver, but I have found myself in a position where I would rather switch to a smaller SUV of some kind. My import days are over but were FUN! This car has never seen a drag strip (why race an AWD road racing car on a drag strip!?) It has also never seen a single track day or driving event. Strictly daily driving.


The Engine Swap was completed 2 days ago under warranty by Mitsubishi technicians @ Mitsubishi on November 10th and I am currently breaking the motor in. At 1000 miles I will swap out the motor oil with Mobile 1 Synthetic. You are buying a chassis with 5500 miles, with a brand new warrantied motor. Only flaws are under the car, scrapes are on the front aero splitter from scraping driveways here and there. Only modifications are cosmetic, springs and wheels.;Here is a list of of the mods::


1. Authentic Work Emotion CR Kiwami 18x8.5 wheels with the OEM Yokohama tires. Wheels will be polished before sale and car will be detailed .I still have the stock BBS wheels, which were run only 7 days!)

 

2. Swift Sport springs (about a 1" drop to remove the gap with the new wheels) Rides equal to stock springs. I was very happy with these.

 

3. 30% Llumar Smoke Tint on side and back window by Megaplex in Glendale.

 

4. Flat black 3m Vinyl wrap on roof by Megaplex in Glendale that gives the car that Glass roof look.

 

5.Escort ZR4 Laser Shifter stealth installed by Devin Oliver at Audio Advice in La Crescenta. Install is very stealth. Radar detector can be integrated with laser shifter's by plugging in (hard wired) just to the left of the rear view mirror. 2 Laser Sensors up front and 1 in Back on top of the license plate frame. This Laser Shifter is a LIFESAVER especially on holiday weekeneds I get lasered 3-4 times!

 

6. Perrin Performance Anodized Grey Shift Knob with adjustable height.


7.All decals from Perrin and work kept in a folder with all receipts and paperwork and OEM parts.


8. Most bulbs switched to LEDS. Daytime running lights, blinkers, blinker flash correction, Trunk Lighting, License Plate from PasswordJDM. Internal lights are incredibly bright, you can actually read a book... Car looks amazing with the Daytime running lights on.


9, Front Badge Plastidipped to black out the entire front grill,


10. Rear Badging removed, only "Evolution" remains No sign of the former emblems to be seen..Removed Badges included along with OEM shifter.

Mitsubishi's all-electric Pikes Peak challengers are in it to win it

Sun, 30 Jun 2013

With a second-place finish already in the books from 2012, there's only one thing on the minds of Mitsubishi drivers Hiroshi Masuoka and Greg Tracy: winning. As the presenting sponsor for the 2013 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, there's no doubt the Japanese manufacturer is hoping for a good showing this year, and the video you'll see below explains how Mitsubishi changed things this year to help ensure a win... basically, more power and more downforce.
Winning in 2013 certainly won't be easy. With competitors that include Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima and Rod Millen, who's driving for Toyota, winners in 2012 in the Electric class. Our own Jonathon Ramsey sat down and spoke with the boys from Mitsubishi, and found that, if not for the over-the-top presence from Peugeot, the the all-electric MiEV Evolution II (which may be a sort of test-bed for potential Lancer Evolution-of-the-future components) may even be capable of challenging for the overall victory.
Their target: nine minutes and thirty seconds. We'll see how close they get later this afternoon. Scroll down below to watch the video.

2014 Pikes Peak Hill Climb: Practice Day 3

Fri, 27 Jun 2014



Greg Tracy's MiEV Evolution III topped the time sheets almost 14 seconds ahead of third-place Monster Tajima.
On Thursday, qualifying times for six categories were set on the bottom-section switchbacks of Pikes Peak: Electric Modified - near-unlimited showcases of electric-vehicle engineering; Electric Production - electric vehicles "readily available to the public;" Open Wheel - single engine, open wheeled, open cockpit, single seat vehicles; Open - based upon a production or approved-aftermarket-replica vehicle; Exhibition - a prototype or pre-production vehicle limited to one year of eligibility in this class; and Vintage - vehicles and drivelines from 1990 or earlier.

The worst rally driver you've ever seen

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Fast cars and excellent driving skills might be the easy answers when asking how to succeed in rally racing, but after watching this video, a good teammate is obviously an important aspect of this sport, too. During the 2013 Rally of Coimbatore in India, driver Samir Thapar and his co-driver, Vivek Ponnusamy, didn't seem to be on the same page as the two attempted to navigate the course in their Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.
We'd probably hear drastically different stories if we talked to Thapar and Ponnusamy about this particular event, but you know things are bad when "stay on road" and "turn the wheel" are commands given by the co-driver (and yes, that's a man running for his life in the screen shot shown above). As it turned out, though, it seems like the Ponnusamy was justified in his concerns to take care of the racecar. Race results show that despite winning three of the seven stages, this team ultimately ended the race with a DNF.
Scroll down to watch the video, and even though it's been edited down from almost 40 minutes to less than four, we get the idea that it wasn't a pleasant experience for driver or co-driver.
