This car is a true survivor that is very good condition for its age. I have spent the last year getting this unique car back on the road. It is a West Coast car and is rust free. I have only driven the car 300 miles since it's completion. Here is a detailed list of what has been professionally done to this car:

Professional engine rebuild:

Original block was hot tanked, bored, and milled. New pistons were installed and the connecting rods were reconditioned. The balance shaft was deleted and new timing chain and guides were installed. The original crankshaft was reconditioned. A new mild cam was installed. The head is a new non-jet type that was polished and intake and exhaust matched. New valves, guides, and seals were installed. ARP head studs were used to install the new head. All new seals, gaskets, and bearings were installed. The oil pump was replaced with a new unit as was the water pump. New engine mounts were installed prior to the engine being installed in the car. A new 14G turbo was installed with a new down-pipe. New Venom injectors were installed. A new Centerforce stage 2 clutch disc and pressure plate were mated to a lightened flywheel and installed. I installed an aluminum radiator with a custom shroud and two high volume electric fans. The car has an aftermarket polished intake pipe with an aftermarket blow-off valve.

Other new components include: a new alternator, all new belts and hoses, and battery. A Kenwood stereo was installed that includes HD radio and Bluetooth. New Alpine component speakers were installed in the doors and Alpine 3-way speakers were installed in the back. It also has a digital Alpine amplifier and is wired for a sub.

The interior of the car is in amazing condition! The original carpet was removed and professionally cleaned and then reinstalled. I had the original seats recovered in black vinyl with perforated inserts to match the original covers. The dash does not have any cracks. The center console armrest is intact and the pad is without defects. The automatic seatbelts work well. Both power windows roll up and down smoothly. The automatic locks work. All gauges and light work as they should. The digital climate control works.

The car has been repainted some time ago but the paint is in good shape. It does have some scratches and the front air dam is damaged. The body is straight and is rust free.

This car is for sale locally and this auction can be terminated by the seller at any time.

Chrysler de Mexico to sell rebadged Mitsubishi model in shades of Colt deal

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

Chrysler and Mitsubishi have had a close relationship since the early '70s. Back then, they partnered up to sell the Japanese brand's models under American names as captive imports in the US. Vehicles like the Dodge Colt, Eagle Summit, and eventually the 3000GT/Stealth twins and lots of other cars and trucks became the fruits of that alliance. In fact, the two companies still maintain a good rapport, as evidenced by reports of a new deal to sell the Mitsubishi Attrage, also known the Mirage G4, in Mexico starting in November.
The Attrage is a small, four-door sedan that borrows many of the mechanical bits from the Mitsubishi Mirage hatchback. According to Automotive News, the deal allows Chrysler to sell the model in Mexico for the next five years. The deal could be a win-win for both companies. Mitsubishi gets to use more capacity at its Laem Chabang, Thailand factory where the car is made, and Chrysler gets a new vehicle for a growing market with almost zero development costs. At this time, there's no indication of the new model's name in Mexico, though.
There's also still a chance the Attrage might make it to the US market as well. The automaker showed off the sedan as the Mirage G4 at the 2014 Montreal Motor Show ahead of promised sales in small-car-friendly Canada. The Mirage hatchback was introduced to the US in a similar way, debuting in Canada first and then crossing the border. While reviews for the Mirage have been pretty atrocious, it would still be interesting to see Mitsubishi further expanding its lineup in North America.

Mitsubishi mulling Mirage sedan for US [w/videos]

Tue, 15 Oct 2013


Mitsubishi is bringing the Mirage hatchback to the US this fall, carrying a price tag of $12,995, not including the $725 destination charge. Mitsunori Kitao, COO of Mitsubishi Motors Thailand Co., says that the Japanese automaker might consider releasing the sedan version of the Thailand-built compact - called the Attrage in Thailand and the Mirage G4 in the Phillipines - if the little hatchback takes off in the US market, Automotive News reports.
Weight is a key concern with importing the sedan. The non-US Mirage hatchback weighs just 1,900 pounds, but its naturally aspirated 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine makes just 79 horsepower and 78 pound-feet of torque, which can only manage a 0-62 miles-per-hour time of 11.2 seconds. The heavier sedan would take even longer.

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution recalled over clutch woes

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

Mitsubishi will be recalling over 10,000 Lancer Evolutions built between December 12, 2007 and March 5, 2013, covering model years 2008 to 2013. The recall only affects cars with manual transmissions, though, so if you opted for a Lancer Evo with a quick-shifting SST, this recall doesn't apply to you.
If you're one of the 10,474 people that has a Lancer Evo X GSR, which is the only way into a manual-trans Evo X, you need to plan a trip to your local dealer. The recall relates to a failure in the clutch master cylinder, making shifting in and out of gear difficult. Consequently, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that this could increase the odds of crashing.
Mitsu will notify owners of the affected cars, and these Evo models will be repaired, free of charge, at dealerships. The recall is slated to begin around November 11. Scroll down for the full bulletin from the NHTSA.
