Me VS 04 SRT4

[float_6969]

This one's for you Dee - NO WAY I can run 20W50 here. The highs right now are running around freezing and getting down to close to zero at night. I don't think my poor motor would even turn over!

[boost_boy]

I understand!

Daimler Chrysler and Mitsubishi were never 'partners'. Daimler Chrysler was a major stock holder for Mitsubishi motors for years. Even more recently (2001), Daimler Chrysler bought Volvo's (yes, they were major stock holders too) chunk of the Mitsubishi Motor's stock...that gave them 37.3% ownership over the company. Mitsubishi owns 34% stake. So actually, Daimler Chrysler owns more of Mitsubishi motors than Mitsubishi does!

BTW, if anyone is wondering why Mitsubishi has been in great financial stress in recent times, it's because their popularity level in Japan went down tremendously after they admitted in August of 2000 that since 1977, they had covered up over 64,000 faulty vehicle complaints to keep from having to do vehicle recalls! Yeah, they suck. :p

you know, I did wanted one when it was still in the stage of production and everyone thought it was going to be AWD. but I scratched the Idea when I found out the SRT-4 was FF.SRT-4 = $21,000+/- $3,00091 240sx + RB26DET + Install = around $15,000+/- $1,000

ahh, i'd go for the RB 240sx, has 40hp more and about $5,000 less.

just my 2cents

GRRR, Okay the 4g3 was offered in the (US) in the 90-94 turbo and na DSMs, and the 95-99 turbo only DSMs and 91-92 galant VR4s(okay, also the older Colt mirage turbos used a 1.6 liter version of the 63 called a 61).

The motor that powerd the 2g NAs(not spyders) was a mopar 420a that was the same as the twin cam neons. As far as I know the motor in the neon is just a stroked 420a. The onlything on that car thats mitsu is the turbo, Its a td04 16g with a intergrated ex manifold and turbine housing. Any way, The older 63s (non evo8) trannys site on the oppisite side from each other.

[PacManVR4]

oops. almost forgot the 1g na single cam 1.8s, and the 2g spyder na 4364 single cam. There has never been a AWD neon made for street use, You can say its a neon all you want but they are fast and cheap.

[Nismo1182]

That link I found says the neons didnt use a 420A.

[PacManVR4]

I was refering to the older gen 1 neons, Thats why a hahn turbo kits(sh@t) works on both. From what I understand (NOT 110%) the motor in the new neons is a stroked 420a. They have had that motor in Mexico for a while powering turbo dodge strutases(is that a word, Strati?) Before it came here. i will have to check, Im just saying that its not a Mitsubishi motor.

[Nismo1182]

Phone's on!

I called you, sir. And left a voice message. Im also going to email you my cell # incase theres a problem that my phone or your phone isnt working correctly. I know my phone was dropped hard lately so the signal isnt as good as it was so calls come and go all choppy and stuff.

Im meeting up with Jaz tonight and find out what the deal is.

[ca18det_boy]

I'll call tomorrow and check it out for you. If you want, I'll meet you up there when you get here.

Dee

Any new word on it? About meeting up just send me a bogus e-mail and I'll reply with all the flight/ hotel info.

[float_6969]

When are you goin Aaron?

[boost_boy]

He's coming to the hood! And Aaron, I'm going to take a ride up there tomorrow and catch them off guard. Wednesday I accidentally drilled a hole clean through my middle/left finger and I had to go for emergency repairs, so I've been kinda slow rollin'. But I'll let you know what the deal is tomorrow with that car!

Dee

[Nismo1182]

Nismo1182: do you have LSD? LSD and with better tires, i'm sure you can take him easy.

[Nismo1182]

Yes I have LSD and my tires I have on now suck. They are 195/60/15 and have 40% thread left. Its the reason I spun first and part of 2nd.

[ca18det_boy]

cool d, whenever you have a chance. Ryan I am going down to lauderdale to pick up another s13. This one is in way better condition than my current one and it will give me and opportunity to have a vacation after 4 years! By the way that was messed up that damn call that you gave me tonight. Did you at least have fun at the show? Anyways if you don't come down and hang out again soon I shall be forced to smite you.....LOL Talk to ya later Ryan and Dee are we still on for margaritas on the beach?

[Nismo1182]

When are you coming down here?

[float_6969]

In reference to what Aaron was talking about I went and saw The Urge last night. Yes they broke up, but they're on a reunion tour. It was AWESOME!!! If you know who The Urge is at all, I HIGHLY recommend going to a show if it's within a few hours drive. Yea, it was that good. I love The Urge!

[boost_boy]

Hey Aaron,

I spoke to curt today and I'm going up to see your car in a few minutes. Quote »Dee are we still on for margaritas on the beach?[/quote] I'm game and I'll even take you for a ride in the sentra and take you on a tour through the hood.

[ca18det_boy]

Uh, yeah....ok. Depends, are you talking about the hood of Miami or lauderdale. Miami...Hell NO!!! Lauderdale, what hood? Hey Nismo I am arriving at the Fort Lauderdale airport Jan 31st around 10Pm. So how did the car look? I know the front bumper is kinda ugly but the rest looked pretty good from the pics he sent me. Anyways whatever ya think is cool dee. Just let me know whats up. talk to ya later!

Like I said, it drives okay, but I hope you got a good body man.

Dee

[ca18det_boy]

hey D check your e-mail! I sent you pics of what he sent me. Can you tell me if it looked anything like it? Also could you be a little me specific in how you think it MIGHT make it back to my house? Did it drive like $*%( or what made you come to that conclusion?

[boost_boy]

It drove okay, but he didn't sound like he cared if you made it back or not. He just wants to make a sell. The car cranked right up and the clutch is pretty good. The fluids looked good enough to drive with, but then again it's a KA24E, so surprises could very well be lurking. I think it will make it back, but then again, i don't trust the KA24Es and their dramas.

[ca18det_boy]

Great.....Now I just need to see if he will give me back my deposit. He stated that it was "non-refundable" but that was also for a car that was supposed to run great and the body was only "a little rough, nothing big, just the bumper".

[ca18det_boy]

Hey Boost, you know of any other 240s down there that are for sale around the same price? Preferably ones that would make it back here?
