Additional information and mods

I know Ill probably regret this. But, today I have forsale is one of my baby's Ive owned for about 6 years now. My 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX AWD TURBO. I bought the car 6 Years ago with 109k miles. Now with only 114900 Miles on it, which is extremely low for any first gen DSM, especially a 1990. This car is modded like any other DSM. Only this one has been modded with Good Taste and Care. Ive spent over 20k on this car since I was 17 years old. Rebuilt it from the ground up. Ever since I owned the car it has been kept in a garage until just recently. The car is very capable of being a Daily Driver, and Ive Daily Drove it before for months without problems when I had to. But since the car has all solid bushings the ride is rough at idle. This is the car I said I was going to keep forever and be "that old guy" that says hes owned his car since he was a kid. But I recently picked up a MKIV Supra and I No longer have the room to keep it in the garage, And it just sits outside at my other estate and it kills me seeing it out there. Not being Treated like the diamond in the rough that I normally treat it as. This car needs to go to a true DSM enthusiast, or at least someone who knows what there getting into. And can care for it as I did.

I lost my data on my computer that I used to keep track of all my mods. So I'm going to try to list everything off the top of my head. but I can guarantee Im going to miss a few things. I do have alot of paper work to back up the work and mods done to this car.

***Engine Mods are: (Mileage when put on)
Fully built head (111k) (Port and polish, 272 Cams, BC racing Springs, BC Valves)
Evo III Exhaust manifold (110k) (Ported)
Evo III o2 pipe (110k)
Apexi Downpipe (110k)
Thermal 3inch Exhaust (110k)
NGK Spark plugs and wires (109k)
250 Warbo Fuel Pump (110k)
660cc Injectors (111k)
New Head, exhaust, intake, etc Gaskets(111k)
New alternator (114k)
Koyo Radiator (112k) (Has small hole in it, Will try to fix before selling)
Slowboy FMIC kit (112k)
16G ported turbo (111k) (Never seen more then 16psi)
Custom 2nd Gen intake and Maf (111k)
Solid motor and tranny mounts (111k) (Probably my most regretted mod, it makes the car feel much more torquer but at a price, the whole car shakes and rattles at idle. You can replace them with stock mounts with ease tho)

****Drivetrain:
Transmission was replaced with Brand new one (109k)
Rebuilt CV axles all around(111k)
ACT 2600 Clutch (111k)

****Suspension Mods:
KYB AGY Shocks (111k)
Tein Lowering springs (109)
(The car really needs coil overs and I wish I would of bought them to begin with, I dislike the setup thats on it now.)

*****Exterior:
Flix Rims 17x7 (109k) (one of the rims is curbed)
ES100 Tires (109k)
New Paint (113k) (painted original Maui Blue)

******Interior/Electronics:
Sparco Seats (will include original stock seats in great condition)
Autometer Oil Pressure, Boost, and A/F Ratio Gauges
Apexi SAFC (needs a tune, I recommend getting a DSMlink)
Dual Pop up screen (CD's dont work, but I just use the ipod connection)
Apline Speakers up front
Infinity speakers in the rear
Infinity 300w amp and sub combo


Pros:
Soon to be Classic (remember this is the closest to the first evolution we truly had in the US....actually it was made before the First Gen evolution even existed!)
Great MPG for the speed (unless you WOT it all the time of course heh)
Cant find too many of these left in this condition.....or even running condition for that matter.
Very Fast (even though it isnt tuned yet)
Nice sound system
Huge potential!
Interior is in 9/10 Condition for its age


Cons:
Car shakes rattles at idle because of solid motor mounts
Suspension isn't what I thought it would be when I bought it new.
1 or 2 small dents and few scratches from sitting out side in the country for a month (I blame the deer)
Got keyed on Driver Door.

Get Ready for alot of pictures :)

****I really dont want to sell it nor do I NEED to, But I really want to get a Cool Daily to keep my miles off the Evo and Supra. I really love this car and Im going to HATE to see it go. but I know someone can have it and enjoy it just as much as I have so. I want this car to go to someone who Will treat it right! And please keep all negative comments to yourself, and if you HAVE to tell me something negative go ahead and do it over pm's, thanks.****

Well, I feel pretty dumb right about now..... I picked up a new battery from Autozone. Dropped it in the GSX, and it started right up! put some coolant in, and made sure to clear the air pockets. And it didnt over heat. I guess I just had a bunch of air pockets in the lines when I originally filled it up! And I just assumed it was a leak. I let the car idle for over a hour and revved the engine up to simulate driving on the highway, and had no overheating problems! Going to get insurance back on it tomorrow and drive it to my other house, going to clean it up and tune it up.

On that notice the price has gone back up. not back to the original 8k since the car has gotten keyed on the driver side.


NEW PRICE.....$7k
