This is horrible to hear, especially since you just bought the car 9 days ago.
-
Car is well worth it, enough for me to consider even though I want a stock Starion. GLWS

HKS exhaust comments were funny
-
I'm very surprised at that, but now that I think about it, I've never seen one that's white on black. It doesn't NEED to be white, I just prefer it.
-
I did, I'm looking for more of a stock example however. Your car is very clean, just not what I'm looking for.

Looking to buy a very nice 1988-1989 Starion or Conquest around the $10,000-$20,000 range. Preferences are 5 speed, black interior, and no sunroof, mostly stock to completely stock. Minimal rust and very clean inside and out. I will accept white cars with any color interior, as well as Durban or Fiji Conquests. I am in CT but will buy from anywhere in US if seller is honest (shouldn't have a problem on this site). I will edit this listing when I find a car, or change plans. So until then, feel free to reply with your own car or listings you've found elsewhere. Thank you, Troy

If anyone has even the part # for the F-CON let me know.

They're Starion specific I believe...

Bump. Really want a PFC-FCON...

DG-5 Coilovers from Japan
StarionTroy replied to StarionTroy's topic in eBay/ Craiglist notices and alerts
The price isn't just $2200, it's $2200 plus shipping from Japan to the US. -
What generation is it? I'm only interested up to the 4th generation www.hks-power.c0o.jp/en/product/electronics/timer/tt10/index.html

I usually am on the Japanese websites like Mercari and Yahoo Auctions, but I am never really looking for new stuff so I filtered all of it out. Today I didn't and I found that DG-5 actually MAKES coilovers for our cars. For those that don't know, DG-5 is a suspension company that used to be Kei Office (or Erfolgkei), the legendary race car driver Keiichi Tsuchiya's brand. I've looked into them and they seem to be a really high quality street/track coilover. Unfortunately as how things are, these high quality coilovers are expensive (around $2200 given the exchange rate from Yen to USD) and would cost even more to ship. I doubt anyone will actually buy these over D2 or K Sport given the price to get these, but I'm just putting it out there that there's a higher quality coilover for our cars than what we all thought previously. For anyone interested, here's a link to DG-5's website where you can see them: http://www.dg-5.co.jp/lineup.html And here's where you can view listings for them on Yahoo Auctions Japan: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/search/search?va=三菱+スタリオン&exflg=1&b=1&n=100&s1=new&o1=d&mode=1&auccat=&tab_ex=commerce&ei=utf-8&aq=-1&oq=&sc_i=&exflg=1&p=三菱+スタリオン+DG-5&x=0&y=0 You'd need an independant proxy other than Buyee to ship these however, as Buyee will not ship anything filled with fluid.

Mecum 2023 starion 54k mi/ 40k$
StarionTroy replied to t hall's topic in eBay/ Craiglist notices and alerts
That car had a good amount wrong with it, like the shift boot, the rear seats not matching, and various other condition issues like the marks on the airdam. If it was 5 years ago, that would be a 10k car max. Today, a 20k car simply for the miles and lack of rust. -
Like I said, I'm looking to make a HKS themed car, so I'm not interested in any of the Greddy items. Hopefully someone else will see this thread and want them! Thanks for posting anyways, if you ever feel like selling those hardpipes, let me know.
-
I've been planning on building a period correct Starion for a while now, and decided on an HKS theme considering they're one of the only high quality manufacturers that made anything for these cars back in the day. If anyone has anything like engine electronic devices (PFC F-CON, AIC, EVC, GCC) or even old merchandise like stickers or t-shirts, send a PM! Only really interested in things from the 80's, and especially anything HKS SPORTS branded.

Bump. Is everyone running D2/Ksport, or just have blown rear struts like I do? I just want to have a quality setup that involves as little aftermarket components and fabrication as possible...
-
Seems like the OP is asking a lot of good questions, I'll rephrase them a bit though: 1. Can I reuse the stock springs on the rear? 2. Do I need camber plates or can I use the OEM top hats both front and on rear? 3. With the MR2 front struts on the rear of the car, will the rear now sit lower than the front? 4. In the case that the answer to Question 3 is yes, do the Starion Mookeeh front struts have a shorter stroke to match the MR2 struts? Then will I have to also change out the springs/top hats? Like the OP, I want a cheap option that works as factory. Please tell me the answers to these questions if you have them.
-
I just want replacement rear struts. Is there no way to keep the stock springs and perches? Or do I have to cut/weld or run Mookeeh?
-
Unfortunately I can't see the pictures, but I'm right in CT and go to URI, it'd be nice to meet up at some point! My instagram is starquestpilot, if you have it.
-
I've seen many talk about using MR2 struts as inserts for Starions, but for some reason I can't find a write-up on it. So, which exact struts am I looking for and what modifications (if any) need to be done to install them? I have a 87 widebody for reference.
