Yes, lots of weight savings. Still though, I like the fact that yet another stock Mitsubishi engine can tear up a track with the right mods.

Crazy Quest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 3000gt's are one of my favorite cars. i don't know why more people don't really modify them to a big level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it really has to do with the engine bay, but in all reality, they're beasts. Was watching a video from 1993 where it was against a stock Supra, RX7, NSX-R, Evo3, WRX STI, and such and it held up pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbath Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 My 95 did 11.6 on the 1/4, and it was without any weight saving. Still had working A/C and everything. 3/@S's can be beasts.. but it just depends on how much you want to spend on them. It's an expensive hobby. With the amount of money I put into mods, I could've bought 2-3 nice clean Starions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project83 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 I've looked into getting one a few different times both non turbo for a daily and a turbo for fun and everytime i look for mods and parts and come away blinking in suprise. They are spendy boogers to mod way to spendy for me, cool fast cars though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are spendy boogers to mod way to spendy for me, cool fast cars though. No different than an FD3S RX7, Z32 300ZX Twin Turbo, MKIV Supra, and such. We're just used to a Starion being so affordable i didn't know the stealth's came with rear steering I'm still surprised at that, I mean I know its mentioned int he VR4, and I know the Stealth RT/TT is basically the same minus the active aero - I just always forget the steering part.

Shelby Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Roughly 3700lbs. they are heavy pigs. i was thinking they were in the 3700 area but want'd to be on the safe side,, thats some serious weight reduction to any car 900 lbs 900 lbs off a Conquest would put it in the 9's easily with 375hp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
