Hi there,
I have a '91 Grey import GTO twin turbo 5 speed manual. I have had quite a bit of service work carried out on the engine, but have recently noticed a strange noise coming from the engine in 3rd and 4th gear. When gently accelerating in these gears, mainly 4th at about 40mph there is a grating sound which soon goes with a bit more speed. I cant check where its coming from when...

hello Frens,

My roomie recently crashed my Car and I had a hard time fixing up my 1995 Mit. 3000 GT !

I had the aftermarket parts for the Airbags installed and after the body work was completely done, the auto body shop said that I would have to get the SRS Computer Module CODED by a Mitsubishi Dealer as the SRS lights would always stay ON !

I finally received the title, insurance and plates Friday.
I went golfing this weekend and that was when I discovered a very serious flaw.

Where in the heck are the <strike>Beer Holders?</strike> Cup Holders?

Are both engines turboed?

They look different to me by the piping on the left. But both are claimed to be turboed?

Wondering if anyone who has previously or currently owns a GTO can fill me in on any pros or cons to this car. I am mostly looking for any cons but if have some pros curious to known them as well.
Also if know of any weakness or anything to look out for.

okay, i cannot seem to find a pair of 360cc injectors, so now i was curious would the DSM 450's suffice if i turned the boost up to compensate? i have a wideband so i can somewhat monitor the balance

Hey guys,
I'm looking into purchasing a pair of racing seats for my 3KGT. I've been looking around and have decided that I'm not prepared to dump about 600 bucks for an individual seat. However, I've seen some Corbeau seats for about 300 each seat, some Matrix's (Matrices) for about 350 each, Yonakas for about 300 a PAIR, plus about 100 for the mounts. Anyone have any...

Hello Everyone,
Well i have been presented with an opportunity that i am having trouble with. My uncle (who is a mechanic) picked up a 91 3000gt SL off of a friend of his for really cheap. The car itself has 160,000 miles on it but the previous owner blew the VR4 motor that was previously in the car. It now has a 34,000 mile VR4 motor without the turbos. I was told it was ready to...

Where do i buy the oem mitsubishi 4wd fluid and the prestone premix coolant.

Hi,
I have a '93 VR4, and everything was working fine until recently.
My engine just seems to cut off. to be more accurate(choking), The engine will fire up each time, would run for about 5-10 minutes. And then the engine would start bucking (Rpm's looks something like ...Start Idle:...

I have a 93 3000GT with Automatic tranny that I recently replaced the motor in. I had a timing belt break and bent all 24 valves. Now the tranny will not go in any of the lower gears, just reverse and DRIVE.....any ideas on what the problem might be? Thanks

I have a 1999 3000GT and I am missing the piece that is on the front bumper that covers the opening under where the liscence plate holder is. Is it called a "grille"?

Does anyone know where I can get a new piece for that spot? I did internet searches and didnt have any luck. Thanks.

Help... yesterday I took my 96sl to a local car wash here in Vientiane (capital of Laos). They drive it up on a rack where they power wash the underside also. Apparently after that it wouldn't start.... (they coasted it down the rack). After all the normal battery connection checks.... still nothing. When you turn the ignition key, there is no starter motor turning, nothing. All the lights,...

Anyone know where to get one? I'v been lookin but i cant find one..

Hi ,
This might sound like a **** question but how on earth do you change the bulbs on the pop up headlights on my GTO. Any help appreciated.

Hi,

Just tuned my 96 3KGT. First I want to thank those who put the information on I got from this forum for making the job go so easy.

I would just like to add one thing.

Before you torque down the plemum put the bolts for the pipe and ERG valve in hand tight in the back. Otherwise they may not line up after they have been apart.

Thanks

The last couple of times i have been out in my Gto TT and got home, the turbo timer is telling me i need to keep my car running for 5 and half minutes. Usually its only about 1 and a half minutes.

Hi.
I am a new member to this forum and I have recently purchased a 1991 Mitsubishi JDM GTO Twin Turbo AWD 4WS.

My rotors are rusting and I am in search of a replacement set. I have found several websites containing aftermarket rotors and stock rotors for the 3000gt. In addition, I found seperate listings for 3000gt and GTOs.

However, I have spoke with a local...

ok i have study alot about mitsubishi and performance my self and engines.

however i realize that if anyone out know that this is possible for the base which is

a 3000gt base model (6g72) to swap the head of a 3000gt vr4 (6g72tt) it the same

engine but higher compression which if u rip half the motor and rebuild the

internals to lower compression i...

So my 1993 3000gt, is just back in running order. and next on my list to fix is the air condiditon.
basically the problem with it is, it is only blowing air.. .hot air at that. but i believe its only air because when the engine is cold it will blow a good breeze when i put it at the lowest temperature. but when the engine gets hot, even at the lowest temp it will start blowing hot air.

Hey guys, im new to the forums here...but i have been trying to do some searching before i post my information.

Bit of a long post but i appriciate any input!

Hey i just sold my 1991 3kgt sl and bought my 1991 3kgt vr4 last week. The vr4 is quick but it doesn't seem to be as fast as i thought it would be. For some reason, my sl almost seemed to feel faster and it also seemed to pull a lot more...Any ideas or thoughts?

hello,
i was simply wondering if a 1992 3000gt vr4 for 6,000$ is a good deal.

I have 90 GTO TT and my demist air vents have warped and cracked. I have bought some new ones but am not quite sure how to get them out. I was hoping it wasnt a remove the dash job. Can anyone advise me of how to change them?

Ok heres the problem my automatic tranny whenever it downshifts into 1st gear it shakes the car up a bit, When it shifts from 1st to second it shifts really hard too but in all other gear shifting up and down is normal. Why would that be, also in reverse the car sputters and the rpm jump from 500-1000 rpm within a given second.

Any insight, thanks guys!!!
