Just EOI atm guys. :)

I can't remember all the mods it has so I'll steal the last owner's mod list and add to it as I remember stuff. :P
When I say "brand new" car has been driven about 4000 km's since these have been installed.

-VR4 engine wiring loom
-Brand new magnecor HT ignition lead set.
-Rebuilt JDM VR4 4G63T
-Upgraded valve springs
-Brian Crower 272/272 cams
-600x300 FMIC intercooler
-Custom initercooler piping: 2.5"
-3" exhaust from dump to tip
-EVO 3 big16g turbo
-GTpumps 070 exhaust housing
-GTpumps exhaust manifold
-stainless manifold heat shield
-stainless dump/alternator heat shield
-EVO 510cc injectors
-Chipped single board VR4 ECU (stutter box set at 5500rpm,Octane Reset, RS Maps, Reset Boost/Fuel Cut)

-Re wired Walbro Fuel pump
-Dejon tool intake pipe
-Simota air filter
-2G MAF
-Turbotech boost controller - Adjustable EBC

-VR4 gearbox (locked FWD) - The locking mechanism was a welded viscous which caused the planetary gears in the centre diff. to fail. Have since gotten the box rebuilt with all new synchros/bearings/seals ($1700). Also, centre diff. has been replaced and welded by QLD specialised welding services and the viscous coupling has been done away with to prevent similar fate of spider gears. We also installed a brand new Quaife mechanical front LSD ($1400). http://www.quaife.co.uk/Mitsubishi-Eclipse-Talon-4WD-front-ATB-differential
-VR4 driveshafts - Have just been rebuilt with oversized items, new boots and all.
-Brand new exedy 5-puk ceramic button clutch
- Lightweight Fidanza flywheel with replaceable friction surface.
-Facelift VR4 front bumper with projector fog lights
- Single Xenon HID headlights.
-Facelift VR4 twinpot front calipers (near new discs and new pads all round)
- Rebuilt and painted calipers. Brand new EBC front pads, brand new bendix ultimate rear pads, brand new slotted RDA rotors all round. VR4 RS brake booster and 1 inch master cylinder. ($900)
-Tein HA front coilovers
-lowered suspension in rear (cyborg 4WD shocks, king springs)
-VR4 sideskirts and doglegs
-17" Genuine Kahn 5 spoke rims with brand new Falken FK452's all round ($1000 worth of rubber alone) sort of like the ones in the following link, but four stud (can't find this exact design as it's outdated) http://www.kahndesign.com/automotive/kahnwheels/?page=smart&cat=wheels
-Boost gauge
-VR4 front seats
-VR4 centre console
-Aftermarket glare strip


She made 216kw atw on 20psi and did a 13.7@111mph ( <-that was with the open front diff. as well) on the weekend, in 30+ degree heat- with some slicks this car will do a 12. like I said this car is VERY fast.


Dyno sheet - http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/3128/img3380ky8.jpg

I haven't dynoed this car since owning it, but I believe it would run alot better now as I've fixed alot of rough things on the car since the day I bought it.

I've had this car just over a year, and probably have only been able to drive it for half of that. I love it so much and was planning to convert it to AWD but I've just started full time study and cannot afford to keep it as I have a few other cars (VR4's.....one of which always loves to breakdown! :mad:) I will proabably need a kleenex or two when I do see her go. :(

Like Dre said this car is insanely quick! I love it so much, and it's been quite reliable too apart from the gearbox failure (and that was due to incorrect FWD locking procedure so I don't blame the car). Other than that, I've recently replaced the alternator which looks like an OEM item. This car has made me so proud, I really hope it goes into good hands. The only thing that has annihilated it in it's home ground (roll start due to FWD:p) was a fully worked R32 GTR. Long live the GGSR! :cool:
As proof Brisvr4's very quick 12.7 @ 110MPH, was very close to the 108MPH for the GGSR (so slicks would really get this thing cracking!...not to mention a proper tune as it runs a little rich on high boost.

Things that should be fixed on the car is the exhaust, as it knocks around on the chassis sometimes, it needs an new hanger/mount welded onto it or something, which isn't a big job at all. Also the paint on the rear quarter panel needs a good cut and polish to bring it shiny again.

I'm trying to forget about all the money I'm gonna lose selling it, but it's love, and only proper car enthiusiasts will understand it's not a "waste" of money. :P

I'm selling it for $9500, or $8500 (with stock VR4 wheels).

Feel free to leave comments guys. Thanks for looking. :)

How much time do you spend in a parking lot with your performance car? If you do a lot of parking lot driving, and hang out in parking lots, chances are you are a ricer, go home and read import tuner. If you’re complaining about noise you should not be modifying your car. You should also consider no longer being a man, please hand in your genitals at the door.
