Thoughts on the Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4?They seem relatively cheap today since they don't have the hype of a Supra, RX-7, etc.
how many times are you going to make this thread? I refuse to believe that there have been like 3-4 people interested in this piece of shit out of the blue back to back to back over the past week.They're heavy and unreliable. Good styling and decent performance if you can actually keep them running, but there's a reason they're so insanely cheap compared to the other offerings out there.>inb4 muh 500whp 3kgt!shut up faggot no one cares that you spent your life savings trying to make a mediocre 90s gt car your entire personality.
>>28614311I think they're the second-sexiest thing Mitsubishi ever made and if they had been a more standard RWD layout they would have become the Cool Tuner Bro Car instead of the Weird Autist Car. That did not happen, however.
>>28614318I'm not your board enemy dude, don't have an aneurysm. I just saw some listings on Facebook marketplace and thought it was interesting.
>>28614331They're heavy and unreliable. Good styling and decent performance if you can actually keep them running, but there's a reason they're so insanely cheap compared to the other offerings out there.
>>28614366what makes them unreliable? any common failure points or is it just everything?
>>28614384It's because they're heavy and unreliable. Good styling and decent performance if you can actually keep them running, but there's a reason they're so insanely cheap compared to the other offerings out there.
>>28614384Mainly 90s electrical gremlins. You're best asking about specifics on a 3kgt forum specifically since most people on 4chan only know what's been parroted ad nauseum
>>28614311Transfer cases weak if you launch it. Auto boxes shit themselves. Gen 1 manual boxes are weak gen 2 is betterDOHC engines need valve seals often. SOHC are ok. Myriad electrical problems. Car is a PITA to work on.
>>2861431130 grand is cheap? K.To answer, they're prone to electrical issues and like to eat ECUs. I briefly considered getting a base one to rallycross before realizing that only the vr4 is awd. Also the electronic problems. Guck.
>>28614494Lol wtf are you talking about 30k?
>>28614504VR-4s are 20-40k depending on the generation.
tried talking some kid out of doing one years ago and he put as much money into it as buying another, and it was still heavy and fucking slowfuck these gay nigger cars
>>28614318>>inb4 muh 500whp 3kgt!>shut up faggot no one caresI'd care, those things are c00l
>>28614322>the Cool Tuner Bro Car instead of the Weird Autist Carironically I think you may have the 'tism
>>28614384complicated. 4 wheel steering. active aerodynamics. 30+ year old twin turbo setup. no space to work on anything.
Vr4 swap a base model then drift it
>>28614651>drift an awd car
>>28614659Awd twin turbo swap a base model, will be 2500lbs run 10.9 1/4s and drift 3rd gear
>>28614661Anon you have to be 18 to post here.
>>28614667Anon you may be under 18 if you don't get the reference https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=21wWWoPqeKQ&pp
>>28614509I'm seeing them for like 5-10k
>>28614677Ah yes an obscure youtube video with fuck all views, of course. the reference was so obvious
>>28614425Gen 1 5spd have strong bell housings, nut weaker transfer assembly2g+ 6spd had a weak 2nd gear and thinner bell housing case, but has a stainless steel transfer case as opposed to 1g cast alu.>>28614311They're good cars, I've dailyed my VR4 for over a decade and enjoyed every second of it. Slowly built mine up bit by bit. They aren't for the feint of heart so if you a pussy or don't wrench just walk away lil bro.>3.0L V6>Twin turboed>AWD>AWS and not that dogshit electrical crap Nissan tried>Active aero, pop ups, electronic controlled suspensionOh yeah baby, it's kino but you gotta git gud
