She's been a slow work in progress. Bought her in 2006 for $1000 with a cracked head. To make a long story short, she has a rebuilt engine with a stock 12a in her now, with 1 3/4" IC hard pipes, 1g BOV, fidanza flywheel, ACT HD PP, FIS short shifter, 2.5" exhaust, and too small of rear tires :boobies:

Things to be done over the winter: install new struts, bushings, strut bars, sway bars, lower airdam, and grounding issues ( some previous owner had put a battery in backwards :no: )

Pile of goodies building up

12A is the stock mitsubishi turbo :D

These cars have a 2.6L inline 4cylinder called a G54B.

Except my post stated I bought the car with a cracked head. We all know a 12A is a rotary engine. We also all know rotaries don't have heads...

Eh, car never had one - but I bought one for $10, spray painted it and zip tied it on. It's off for the moment because it makes getting under the front of the car a lot easier :D
