1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse Gsx Hatchback 2-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Syracuse, New York, United States
|
Car was built in '03, well-maintained since (by Cantech Automotive),
always garage kept, never seen snow. Heavily modified. It's very fast,
accelerates quickly and handles well - driving this car is fun. Boost is
set at 17psi but could go higher. Clutch is heavy, steering is tight, suspension is firm,
car is low (but not too low to be driven most places). Issues: There's
a screw missing from the throttle body which causes the car to idle
high at stoplights (~1500-2000rpm). A stab at the throttle drops it back
to normal. I've been told the kit to fix this can be bought from
streettunedmotorsports.com for $15. CD Player/head unit needs replacing. None of these problems annoyed me to the
point of fixing them, and I drove the car almost daily in the summer.
Comes with a box of original parts and original hood. I'm only
selling the car because my personal tastes have changed - if I had the
extra space & money I would keep it and buy something else too. But I
don't, so it's time for this car to be enjoyed by someone else as much
as I have enjoyed it the past 8 years. This car has over $12K invested
in mods alone. Buyer gets a folder w/all receipts, including both parts
& labor for all mods & maintenance. Price negotiable. Email me
w/questions or offer.
List of mods: spearco intercooler 24.5x11x3.5 w/custom intercooler piping, 3 inch Thermal racing exhaust (w/cat added), Evo manifold, 3 inch downpipe, tubular o2 housing, 40mm wastegate, 560 RC injectors, holley fuel rail, sx fuel regulator, k&n air filter, Greddy BOV, dejon tool air intake, forced performance green turbo, ACT2600 Clutch, short shifter, apexi afc, greddy turbo timer, apexi 60mm boost gauge, apexi 60mm egt gauge, carbon fiber hood, chrome projector headlights, 18" Exel hyper black wheels w/Kumho Ecsta summer tires, eibach lowering springs 1.5" front and back, koni adjustable shocks front and rear, strut bars, windows tinted. |

Mitsubishi AR Concept continues a wacky, wonderful tradition [w/video]
Thu, 21 Nov 2013Mitsubishi enjoys a long history of thinking outside the literal box when it comes to designing minivans and people movers. Remember the Mitsubishi Van, a.k.a. Delica? How about the Chariot, better known to us as the Colt Vista? The Expo and Expo LRV, the twin models that succeeded it? These were all left-of-center takes on the MPV genre, and while they never sold in large volumes, we can't help but look back at them with a mix of bemusement and respect for their oddball character. Who knows? A production version of this AR Concept could be next.
According to Mitsubishi, "the comfort of a minivan and active personality of an SUV are merged at the highest levels" in the Concept AR. Us? We just think this mild hybrid concept looks kind of neat, even if it's just putting on off-road airs with its elevated ride hight, faux skid plates and black-lipped wheel wells.
Hardware-wise, this Active Runabout is less showcar and more 'real world,' with the front wheels drawing their power from a 134-horsepower, 1.1-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine paired with a 10-kW electric motor used as a belt starter generator (read: mild hybrid). A continuously variable transmission handles shifting duties.
Mitsubishi to offer new Galant, Montero in US?
Wed, 03 Apr 2013We admit it - we've been skeptical about Mitsubishi's fortunes here in the US for a long time now, and this month's reveal of the 2014 Mirage subcompact at the New York Auto Show didn't do much to quell our consternation. Yes, the Mirage should attract a certain portion of the buying population based on what will likely be the best fuel economy figures in its segment and a low price, but the profitability of basic small cars is limited even under the best of circumstances. Mitsubishi is clearly going to need something meatier in its portfolio if it wants to get back on track financially.
Help appears to be on the way. According to The Detroit Free Press, Masatoshi Hasegawa, the company's executive vice president here in North America, has confirmed that at least two more models are destined for the company's US dealerships, and it looks like they're going to be entries into higher-volume, higher-margin segments. Hasegawa pledges that the company will overhaul its lineup over the next two to three years, and one of them will be a successor to the often-ignored Galant, a midsize sedan we last saw for the 2012 model year.
And what of the other model? Apparently it will be an unnamed "bigger brother" for the new 2014 Outlander, an acknowledgment that suggests Mitsubishi is considering bringing its Montero/Pajero SUV back to the States. Earlier this month, we heard a report that a next-generation model for the venerable off-roader remains a few years out, but it's possible Mitsubishi might import the current aging model before the new one is produced. A big shift is said to be in the works for the fifth-generation model, with a massive weight loss and possible plug-in hybrid variant tipped as top goals for the program.
Mitsubishi CEO vows to stay in US on heels of Suzuki's departure
Wed, 07 Nov 2012By now, you're surely aware that Suzuki is pulling out of the US market. It was a bit of a foregone conclusion to most who've been paying attention to the automotive realm, but it still sent a small shockwave through the industry. And one of the most oft-heard retorts goes something like this: "Next up: Mitsubishi."
It's easy to understand why many question Mitsubishi's existence in the States. After all, now that Suzuki is gone, Mitsubishi is the Japanese automaker with the fewest sales in America. Furthermore, the automaker's market share has dropped from .7 percent to just .4 percent after seeing sales fall 29 percent to 50,103 units through October.
In any case, Mitsubishi fans needn't worry. Speaking to Automotive News, Mitsubishi President Osamu Masuko said, "We have no intention whatsoever of withdrawing from the US market." That's about as clear as clear can get. It's also worth mentioning that Gayu Uesugi was just named chairman of Mitsubishi Motors North America, and his main responsibility will be to revitalize the brand in the US.
