Good to see you again Toadie.Fri, 10 Jul 2026 18:22:09 +0000Welcome. What part of Texas are you at?Fri, 10 Jul 2026 18:21:26 +0000Been a member for a little over a year now but was just reading, learning, etc and just never got around to ever posting anything. I bought a car from Starquestparts early last year and have been busy with it. It's an '88 Conquest (sort of, lol). I found the prior owner on Reddit by chance and learned that the car is a mishmash of parts. Rebuilt engine was from an 84, has an upgraded flywheel, clutch but has had some not so good things like ac removed (I'm in TX), MAFT was put in but neither prior owner or I could get it working right so now it has a mega squirt ECU in it. Just pending the dynotune now. ThanksFri, 10 Jul 2026 16:03:54 +0000I archived SOS manuals site when it was still up and running. Excellent repair info here. Here is the download link. It is a zipped file, extraction can take a very, very long time, there are thousands of tiny files there. If you know your HTML feel free to optimize this and reupload. https://mega.nz/file/SEgBQJiS#tEeO3yRaCzjkYmJxzCBanQAClrUifO_1uwEwf1OVM7o ps, this place seems very dead, where has everyone moved to?Fri, 10 Jul 2026 03:59:47 +0000www.carsandbids.com also has them from time to time. I got a runner and a roller from Steve and he was great to work with.Sat, 04 Jul 2026 17:00:39 +0000Welcome. Hopefully you can find your new baby how you want it. Bring A Trailer has some really nice ones from time to time.Fri, 03 Jul 2026 04:35:02 +0000welcome to the family.check out starquestparts.net steve has a bunch of cars for sale.Tue, 30 Jun 2026 12:05:48 +0000Hello All; As a owner and fan of European cars all of the 80's and 90's, I never owned a japanese car. But the Conquest/Starion ALWAYS caught my eye back in the late 80's. As I have retired, I now have a bit of time for a fun car. In the market for one but narrowed it down to: 1988 or 1989 only. And only a manual transmission. And overall condition would be no lower than say, 7 out of 10 condition. Should start/run fine, and all accessories (including AC) should work. Not seeking a modified car, but as close to stock as possible. Colors: Blue, Red, maybe black. And only black leather interior. I have tools and have done all of my cars' maintenace and most repairs, but really not seeking a project car (nor anything close to a project car) at this time. Yes, I know. Im seeking whats essentially a unicorn at this point. But Im in no rush and Im patient. If anyone has one for sale or knows of a reference who might be willing to sell, let me know. And yes, I've already found starquestparts.net, and have already been in contact with Steve as we are both in the same state. And yes, I have searches set up on marketplace and cargurus and I check other sites every other day or so as well. Thanks for having me here.Mon, 29 Jun 2026 18:08:28 +0000Looking through scans of old StarQuest articles I found one titled "Return of the Sudden Samurai" comparing the 1983 Starion, Supra, RX-7, and the 280ZX Turbo. The specs table says the Starion was equipped with "P215/50HR15 BFG Radial Steel Belted" tires. Don't know any better details than that. mike c.Fri, 26 Jun 2026 18:09:57 +0000Thanks, guys. I'll report back if I'm successful!Fri, 26 Jun 2026 15:54:19 +0000I don’t know about the flat body cars but the wide body came with Yokohama A-008 tires (at least for 1987), which they actually still make for vintage applications, but I don’t think they’re available in our factory sizesWed, 17 Jun 2026 21:43:20 +0000I don’t know but you can get tire stickers from tire stickers . comWed, 17 Jun 2026 21:30:54 +0000Does anyone know what tires Mitsubishi equipped the Starquest with from the factory? All my build sheet says is the size and that they were RWL (raised white letter). Interested in this to keep the OG spirit alive! See image of my 1983 that I am getting back in the road.Sat, 13 Jun 2026 18:31:58 +0000Years ago I mounted one from the side of the block. Forgive me for not remembering exactly where I bolted it but this allowed me to connect everthing to the front and rear of the block before re-installing it. JimmySat, 13 Jun 2026 09:18:47 +0000I use the widest bottom bellhousing and the two top bellhousing holes. if you have the flywheel still attached you need to have some spacersSat, 13 Jun 2026 02:37:04 +0000I have the engine out and hanging on a hoist. I'm unsure where to attach the four engine stand "posts" to the engine. Here's the stand: https://a.co/d/0151UHcG. You've seen the engine before. Any suggestions? My mechanic friend is pretty sporadic in his help and I'm about to tackle this whole project by myself (with frequent posts here, most likely.)Fri, 12 Jun 2026 19:38:25 +0000thanks!Fri, 12 Jun 2026 13:56:53 +0000congrats on the purchase .starquestparts.net will have everything you need.Fri, 12 Jun 2026 12:04:47 +0000Looks like they are available O'Reilly. https://www.oreillyauto.com/shop/b/brakes/brake-drums---rotors/brake-rotors/d133f11235f8/v/a/7062/automotive-car-1987-mitsubishi-starion?q=brake+rotorsWed, 10 Jun 2026 11:23:32 +0000I have an 87 Conquest that is my daily driver and it now needs front rotors, I am struggling to find these. Anyone have a source?Wed, 10 Jun 2026 04:50:43 +0000I have an 87 Conquest that is actually my daily driver. It needs front rotors and not surprisingly I cannot find them anywhere. Anyone have a source?Wed, 10 Jun 2026 04:48:31 +0000I have used nothing but Redline MT90 in the trans. This thread talks about the rear end oil.
