I like what you did with the windshield wiper, so that they match the racing stripes...

CLEVER!

more pics

[WTF?]

other than the white wiper blades the car looks really good

[SiRed94]

Wow, you started it all.... nice to meet you. I wonder who is going to start the REPing for you today.

[SiRed94]

Nice car though, would look better w/o those stripes and wipers IMO. What's done to it?

started it all. The turbo craze comes from the conquest/starion. Dont you forget it

Agreed!:goodjob:

[87 Turbo II]

Wow, that'll be nice for as long as it runs. I do believe the GNX Grand nationals were turbocharged too, as well as some older Porsches, oh and in the early 80s, the Mazda Rx-7 12A were sold in Japan with turbochargers. this is the part where you stop acting all high and mighty.

[osnap]

your car is alright. your attitude, not so much. welcome anyways i guess.

[twinj]

I rather have a Grand National. Between the arrogance you have of your car...I lol @ you.

25psi, so have it dynoed?

but what car started the craze? wasnt the shitty porsches, thats for sure. really though, im just kiddin around with the whole high and mighty thing. just effin around

[PURP]

[MidLifeCrisis]

your car....i hate it. 1995 called and they want thier stripes back. seriously.

[Whiteboy572]

Your car is sh!t and so are you doogan licker. :taun: :2cents:

[Ol' Gregg]

I would rather have a grand national....well i would rather wipe my own ass with a knife than drive this car

[m3dic8d]

[Motivation]

Car looks alright minus a few details...

[Motivation]

And wth is up with showing us a "real ride"???

[Kamikaze]

I'd rather have the "shitty" Porsche.

[BUGMAN]

The Mustangs also had turbos with the GN craze. I think they started the turbo 4 cylinder back in 83-84.

I have to agree with taking a GN over a Starion ricer look.

When someone post up a "real car" I was expecting a 66 vette or something with "real" muscle.

Glad you like your car. :goodjob:

[alpine_aw11]

I like Starions, as long as they don't have racing stripes and Pep Boys wipers. I was leaving Pep Boys one day and saw a guy putting yellow wipers on his perfect E36 M3 and had to talk him out of it.

[The BUCKY]

hahahaha this thread is fail. noob fail

[SiRed94]

That's pretty good. My car on 25 psi only went a few seconds faster than that.

[K-Rock]

i wouldnt mind flexin on that.

Nice ride.

Wanna trade for my Z32?

[greasemunkey]

get rid of the wipers...LOVE starions though. been riding in one all week. drift car ftw!

Holy crap...this thread is awesome!

I am not much for bashing people and people's cars but what the Fuck ? That car is the biggest hunk of shit and only because you own it. Other than that I am a huge fan of the late 80s, early 90s sports cars.

[Atlblkz06]

What trend? Turbocharging was a diesel thing even before gas engines. It used to be about improving efficiency and power.

These days its all about making "That noise" from the BOVs.

dont get me wrong man...i respect the fact that you've put a lot of work into your car...but bro..if i did all that work and put all that money into my car, id really want somethin a lot better than a 13.5

[MachNU]

is it just me or did no one check this kids age? hes 19 and says he started the craze when he has a car thats dam near older than him?

Well, not too sure about this particular car but some cars just don't do well in the 1/4 despite the amount of mods/$ in them. Mine, for example, I'll be lucky to get a 13 in the 1/4 but will make a corvette my bitch on the hwy... and my list is a bit longer than his.

Just sayng... :goodjob:

I think i would take any old european turbo cars over that. 930 turbo, 911 turbo all way before your chrysler.

I own a 84 mustang svo that is 2.3L turbo.

I told my friend one time who owned a dodge avenger "you cant polish a turd it just smears"

but what car started the craze? wasnt the shitty porsches, thats for sure. really though, im just kiddin around with the whole high and mighty thing. just effin aroundWOW! So you're saying the Conquest/Starion was built in 1962?! I imagine that would be an awesome car sitting next to the Corvair Monza :rolleyes: Then BMW did what in 1973? Porsche did what in 1975? Saab did what in 1978? What do they all STILL produce today? Turbo'd cars. Of course you have the Evo & SRT4.

Sorry, I don't think much of models that have 4 manufacturers: Mitsubishi, Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth. It's either an identity crisis or multiple personalities...both considered mental issues.

Clean wide body Starions are really nice though, I've seen a few around.

actually read the mod list.. he listed an alternator and spark plug wires... there really isnt that much done, i think he just tried to make the longest list he could to seem like a badass :rolleyes:

Stock for stock a Starion rapes an SVO - same engine as a Merkur XR4Ti ( and I've raced one quite often ) - and Jesus Christ you are a fucking moron to think this thing is a Neon :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmao: In no way, shape or form is this thing in anyway related to a Neon.... :lmfao: That was sig worthy


Szester - errr, I'd loose the ego trip. You'll get raped here :lmao:
Honestly, the stripes and wipers need to go. They just sort of don't flow well with the car like they do on say an old Camaro or a Viper.

[amped4life33]

actually read the mod list.. he listed an alternator and spark plug wires... there really isnt that much done, i think he just tried to make the longest list he could to seem like a badass :rolleyes:

cammed? forged internals? 25lbs of boost intercooled? dude if i was cammed forged and runnin 25lbs of boost id run 9s maybe high 8s...i realize displacement is an issue here but dude...seriously...a 13.5???? thats rediculous my car does almost that straight outa the showroom.

eh - you need to do your research about the car first. its a 2.6L SOHC I4 with a two injector throttle body setup. It's why a lot of us are going towards MPI more and more.

Let me put it like this. Stock car has about 190whp. Give or take. A guy in Cumming, GA put MPI on the car, and a S16G turbo @ 18psi. Car dynoed 364whp before the stock original clutch vaporized. One of the most awesome sounds I have ever heard.

HA!!! Remember when "hatin" was the logical response to ALL disagreements? Good times. Aaaaaanywho, Starions are s3x in a can. Kids with ego's buttcheese. Put the two together and what do you have? BUTSEKZ!!!! Sure, some people like it, most have done it, but it's generally looked down upon.

[kfzemx3]

25psi and all you could hit was 13.7? thats not good lol

i like starions and all but meh this one is sub par to me and definitely did not start the trend.


I say StromHammer is better :)

[Stormhammer]

Szester - just a word of advice from being around these for a few years

25 psi is a wee much unless you've seriously reinforced the engine. 20psi is the most people will really run.

Also, if you want to make the most out of the car, cut the boost down to 18psi, get a GM MAS, a wideband O2 sensor ( like an AEM UEGO ) and a MAF-T

i dont really know where you are going with that...its like you are agreeing with me in a really defensive tone...

i was saying that with all that done to his car it should do better than a 13.5...and it seems like you just pretty much backed up what i said...did i miss something?

The turbo craze comes from the conquest/starion.

Actually.. it all originated from Porsche..

Dont forget that..

[EP3sAreFun]

Dont forget that..

you mean.... airplanes right? cause thats where Turbos came from


Production automobiles

The first Turbo-Diesel truck was produced by the "Schweizer Maschinenfabrik Saurer" (Swiss Machine Works Saurer) 1938 [1].
The Corvair's innovative turbocharged flat-6 engine. The turbo, located at top right, feeds pressurized air into the engine through the chrome T-tube visible spanning the engine from left to right.

The first production turbocharged automobile engines came from General Motors in 1962. The A-body Oldsmobile Cutlass Jetfire and Chevrolet Corvair Monza Spyder were both fitted with turbochargers.

The world's first production turbodiesel automobile was also introduced in 1978 by Mercedes-Benz with the launch of the 300SD turbodiesel. Today, nearly all automotive diesels are turbocharged.

funny... i dont see Porsche mentioned.... how odd

I love the mob mentality on here. One guy posted something in a joking manner, and everyone mobs him. *sigh*

I think what he was trying to say was that the Starion was a very popular turbo car and helped start the RWD import craze back-int-he-day. Notice i said help start, not that it was THE ONLY CAR.

EH WHATEVER. go back to Canadia


History

The turbocharger was invented by Swiss engineer Alfred Büchi. His patent for a turbo charger was applied for use in 1905.[1] Diesel ships and locomotives with turbochargers began appearing in the 1920s.

[edit] Aviation

One of the first applications of a turbocharger to a non-Diesel engine came when General Electric engineer Sanford Moss attached a turbo to a V12 Liberty aircraft engine. The engine was tested at Pikes Peak in Colorado at 14,000 feet (4,300 m) to demonstrate that it could eliminate the power losses usually experienced in internal combustion engines as a result of reduced air pressure and density at high altitude.

Turbochargers were first used in production aircraft engines in the 1930s before World War II. The primary purpose behind most aircraft-based applications was to increase the altitude at which the airplane can fly, by compensating for the lower atmospheric pressure present at high altitude. Aircraft such as the Lockheed P-38, Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress and Republic P-47 all used turbochargers to increase high altitude engine power.

I didn't say they didn't HELP, but lets face it, 1982-1990 isn't "back in the day."

1983-1989 :)


The Mitsubishi Starion is a three-door, turbocharged (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbocharged) four-cylinder (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-4) rear-wheel drive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rear-wheel_drive) four-seat sports car (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports_car) that was in production from 1982 to 1990.

quoted for truth haha

[DeutscheBAG!]

Wow, that'll be nice for as long as it runs. I do believe the GNX Grand nationals were turbocharged too, as well as some older Porsches, oh and in the early 80s, the Mazda Rx-7 12A were sold in Japan with turbochargers. this is the part where you stop acting all high and mighty.


lol

beat me to it

[05IONREDLINE]

I always liked the Starions/Conquests

[Ol' Gregg]

Wow seriously i would rather let a fat bitch sit on my sholders, while i ran a mile in horse sh*t, with a lamp shoved in my ass than drive this car!

HAHAHAHA. Very true. I think this car is hideous.

[Catnip]

I matched the OP's quarter mile time with my 1.8 liter stock engine. LOL.

[EP3sAreFun]

is that really all that matters? ;)

hes also only got 2 injectors.

[EP3sAreFun]

lol some of you guys shouldn't jump on the bandwagon when ya dont know much about these cars.


I'm throwing the bullshit flag on those numbers lol noob. You started the trend eh? Well then I guess us "youngsters" do better with the math. :lmfao:

Actualy 13.5 is pretty decent for a Starion, with weighing a ton and a half and only having 2 injectors and a small 52mm throttle bod AND a very inefficent stock manifold... it can be hard to turn numbers out of what mitsubishi gave us. And don't even get me started about the stock intercooler routing! Damn, that was such an after thought.


actually read the mod list.. he listed an alternator and spark plug wires... there really isnt that much done, i think he just tried to make the longest list he could to seem like a badass :rolleyes:

I also have the Alternator mod, which requires you to engineer your own bracket since it won't bolt up to the stock bracket and also source your own Alternator. This is done because the stock alternators run outta juice and can be very pricey to repair/replace. Also i'm sure hes talking about something like the 8.55 mm Taylor or MSD plug wires where you have to buy a universal kit and kit and crimp them for your application. :) Just like i've done.

Keep the questions comin' guys :)

[Sport1.3]

can you fucking read? I said they helped start.

goddamn you ppl


I was refering to the Original Poster's remark


The turbo craze comes from the conquest/starion. Dont you forget it



Yes, i can read quite well. Please drink bleach and then laugh yourself to death at the utter failure that is turbo + Throttle body injection

[Sport1.3]

\

hes also only got 2 injectors.


That's not a positive trait lol

[Stormhammer]

i dont really know where you are going with that...its like you are agreeing with me in a really defensive tone...

i was saying that with all that done to his car it should do better than a 13.5...and it seems like you just pretty much backed up what i said...did i miss something?


Honestly, he probably should have blown a head gasket, or probably will soon enough with that boost pressure. Really the limiting factor of 1/4 mile times is the injectors with the ECU, hence why I voted up the MAF-T, wideband O2 and GM MAS. You're essentially talking about a car that hasn't had a single thing tuned ( you need stated mods to tune the car ). With a self-tune, he should be able to pull off a better 1/4 mile time.

drink bleach? goddamn your a loser. This was what Mitsu designed the car with so ppl run with it and pull the best they can from it. I guess some ppl work on a car for more than the fact that its "OMG so JDm- sht tye kool yo" i guess you didnt think of that.


That's not a positive trait lol
its also not negative, hes working with what hes got.

[Catnip]

its also not negative, hes working with what hes got.

If it's not negative then don't use it as an excuse why they're so slow, as with the intake manifolds, throttle bodies, and whatever else you mentioned. It's still a 2.6 (?) liter turbo...

It's not so much as slow as that after a certain point with modifications it becomes a limiter of the power you can make. I personally am quite content with my TBI setup. Well I will be more so when I can find a non-leaking primary injector ( I need to stop buying 20 year old injectors :lmao: )


I should go find the Starion that had a huge aluminum spoiler on it...

[james]

this thread is ending well.

[Catnip]

I mean, don't get me wrong, I've wanted a starion/conquest for a while. I actually tried to get a local one a few times, but 13.5 with 25 psi and then being cocky about it, is just lame.

no he was cocky by saying that he was going to show us "punks" a "real car" and then i open it up and see wiper blades from fucking 1988.

I know of one for sale in Lizella :D

[AFSil80]

I think I'd rather have my S12 200SX turbo than this Starion that thinks it's a third-Gen Camaro.

It was as old as me, and it was missing all the interior panels except for the dash, and the previous owner cut the exhaust off. I couldn't get it to go faster than 78mph. It was a pile.
