A couple of months back I guess I was looking into a brake upgrade for my Blue GK thats been converted over to efi and was reading up on how the starion struts bolt right up etc and back starion discs+ caliper on the scorpion diffs (actually been playing with the idea for a while)
so it all started by keeping an eye out for some one selling starion struts or some one parting out a starion. came accross an add on gumtree saw the price so organized to go look at the night after and left a deposit, my original intention with the starion was to part it out grab what I needed and get rid of the rest. how ever yes
I know. ive decided to slowly fix it up, not my main focus but something to play with if i get bored of other stuff.Keep in mind here I bought this car not running
shes got little bits of rust and some damage but nothing that really cant be fixed
after a quick wash
Car is a 1982 Mitsubishi Starion and comes factory with a SOHC 4g63 single point injected turbo set up
was told from the last owner that a couple of owners before him had used it as a drag car at some point in its life, so came back and did a little research
found an old forsale ad from 05 some pics and some videos on youtube.

other vids of the car can be found on that persons youtube page
one of the previous owners im guessing so back to info and stuff.
its been sitting out the front now for a bit and im in no immediate rush to have the starion on the road or anything but at the same time you dont see very many
last couple of days and what not works slowed down to pretty much a dead halt for me and ive been going bored out of my mind, not so much feeling like doing anything to the other cars but wanting to do some pulling apart of the starion, so had to get cottees to come help me swap the lancer and starion around so I could get an engine crane to the front of the damn thing.
well to start, this is what the engine bay looked like when I picked it up
the rest of it was in the boot
next to this thing
any ways, engine finally came out
started pulling things to pieces, its all broken any ways so whats it matter
hmm
hmm
hmm
see if you can see it
yep thats what I said too
w58 box with a modded cross member
borgwarner narrow block bellhousing
thick as adapter plate
some one couldnt resist looking, but good thing came out of it since the little plastic shifter bush had broken and fallen into the box and probbaly went around the gears a couple of times and the speedo gear had fallen off the output shaft ah yeah thats about it for now
if you know somthing about the car seen it or have stories about it please share?
