I beat a 3000gt tonight, so after I thought he had enough I let off & he came by me thinkin he beat me & shit. But thats ok.

 

your lucky it wasnt a VR4 he would of smoked you. its twin turbo charged.. but hey a win is a win.

 

Yeah I know I thought I was goin to lose but hey.......like you said a wins a win

 

So details, what's up? Was it from a roll? If so, what mph to what mph?

It was the SL model obviously, so by how many car lengths?

What do you have done to your car? Do you have a sig?

 

reg 3000gt a modded 2.2 or 2.3 could keep up.

SL or VR4 is diff story

it handles nice. i loved my friends SL when he had it. then he got a 00 ta. what a waste.

 

mitubishi makes shitty cars.

 

ditto on that one insyone

 

triple ditto

my buddies eclipse is a big POS, it always has problems, hes invested more in parts than he paid for it :thumbsdn:

 

i dunno...

i like the lancer evo's alot...

 

look at the older mitsu's... they look like theyre going to fall apart. my friend had a gsx, and he locked his keys in his car.. we unlocked the door with a wire hanger.. that was sooooo ghetto. fuck mitsubishi. i pimp an acura.

 

haha he did a :ghey: ricer flyby at then end

 

i have to disagree the only difference between the sl and the base was the leather seats and the stereo it had the same amount of power.

 

maybe it was just the 2 buttons, one made the suspension firmer and the other changes settings in the ecu for more perfomance. i think it adj air/fuel.

 

Both base and the SL run about the same times. High 15s for the manual, low-mid 16s for the auto. The manual would be a good race with a 3.0CL, a 2.x 5sp would still be go to 60.

The VR-4 went from mid 14s to mid 13s during the years. Should smoke a NA first gen any way you look at it. Good luck finding a stock one too.

[/silvia]

 

it was the dodges that had a3 diff engines, not mitsu. oops.

 

the Sl onlt had the button for the stiffer suspension, it was the vr4 that has both buttons. i used to own an Sl.. piece of shit car.

 

Whatever guys! At least say that's YOUR opinion cause that's what it is! It's NOT a fact!

My Mitsu w/over 127K miles would make your shit look silly anyday...looks and performance wise! I've never(knock on wood) had any problems w/my car in the 5yrs of owning it! So don't comment on shit you hear from other people if you haven't experienced it yourself!

 

for the time being that i had my vr4, it never gave me problems....oh and the SL model and the base model dont have the same power...the base was like 186 and the SL is 222. something like that...pretty sure the base was SOHC and the SL was DOHC.

 

i love mitsu's...but i love acuras now too.....this CL has been to hell and back with me, and it still runs strong as hell. I'm sticking with these japanese cars forever....well...having a german car wouldnt hurt either, hehe. (BMW's, Benz's...oh my)

 

damn jq! thats a nice eclipse!! keep it up!

my friend had an eclipse, but he sold it. here are some pics:






he sold it for $10,000

now he has a orange 2003 mazda speed protege.. its so freakin fast... ill try to get him to take pics..

 

ewwww...automatic

 

It was a roll at from 50 to 125. We were playin with each other & I passed him & he got back next to me & passed me so I got neck to him & looked at him & then I floored it & he nailed his at the same time. I probably had about a half of a car on him. My cl is stock. Its a 98 2.3. auto tranny.

 

a9c8uCrLa, is your car totally stock, if so, I know from 100 to 125 your car took a while to get there, especially if your stock. My car runs strong as hell with the little mods I have done to it, and I do beat a lot of things top end, but from 100 to 125-130, it's taking a minute to get there, I don't care what anyone says about that. And about Mitusu's, I had a 93 Eclipse with 130,000 miles on it, burned a little oil but the car was like a rock!!!! and my boy just imported the only VR4 Twin turbo AWD galant and I will put any amount of money that he rips anyone of our cars a new Ass!!! So like jqturbo said, make sure you are going off facts before you open your month about what you "DON"T KNOW"!! If you got beef about my post you can take it up with me!!! I got a die hard mitsub cat that will proabably see all this talk about mitsub and post so be prepared to back up your opinions. Holla

 

Good kill, doesnt matter what model 3000gt it was as long as you got satisifaction out of it your good! Its to often people buy the bottom of the barrel models of cars and "believe" they can handle anything on the road!!!

Wow sounds like the two ladies want to line up for keys? want a head start?? 1 to 3 car lenths, choice is yours..after, like 5 feet off the line Im going to pull over infront of you turn on the hazards and escort you out ofyour ...MY car. You will then be able to buy parts of it off ebay!

Thats called Being owned Mitsubishi style!

 

I dont think Acura's look silly, unless if it is riced out with crap. I did not base my opinion on word of mouth. I have experienced driving in my friends GSX. It was a fun to drive, although it his car was falling apart. I am glad that you love your Mitsubishi. I respect you for that.

 

Whoopdy fucking dooo!!?!

I could careless about you, and your car. Hard ass internet racer.

 

That's called being OWNED Acura-CL.com style!

 

would you like NOS with that? Are you too fast, and too furious? Go home and make love to a tree, you hippy.

 

What does this kid drive, 3KGT? Unless it's a VR4, might as well race a brick wall.

 

I like the VR4's They're pretty quick for a stock car. I've race 2 on the highway with a 75-shot. I beat one and hung with the other.

Usually, when racing any car on the highway, (if they've already started in front of me), I just hang behind them and see if I can keep up, or see if I'm pulling on them. I can't afford to get another ticket!

 

lnsyone: Frankly if you wasnt stranded on hawaii you may get to experience losing to a 99 GALANT VR4 personally. Trust me call me what u wish but we can compare dyno sheets. net racer thats cute, i will refrain from name callin cause its beneath me. Speakin of which what do you have done to your CL? I probrably forgot more then you ever knew about your own car...hmm

 

not hating or anything, but Mazda Speeds are not that fast, I've cleaned two of them since my swap! Just saying not beefing!

 

hehe.. i know.. but its faster then my car for sure..

 

2003 mazda speed protege:

0-60 - 7.38

1/4 mile - 15.85 @ 92 MPH

1998 acura cl 3.0:

0-60 - 7.84

1/4 mile - 16.20 @ 88.80


its about half a second faster then my car on 0-60..

and 35 seconds faster on the 1/4 mile..

 

Thanks for the props on my ride! Your friend's car was nice too!...auto or not!

As for the MazdaSpeed, they are not THAT fast stock, but with mods, they can be real fast! Any factory turbo has plenty of potential!

 

No, you right, Acura's don't look silly cause if that was the case, I wouldn't have picked out my girl's Ack for her!

Just didn't appreciate the comment about Mitsu's when they ALL are not like that! Mine has also been through hell and back, and we're goin' again! It runs like a champ and I'm about to upgrade the turbo, so it should haul w/in the next month once it's all tuned! Thanks for the respect. And I am understanding and agree that there are ALOT of Mitsushitty's out there!...just not all of 'em!

 

I agree!

 

Yeah my car is stock........I mean you may think Im lyin & thats cool but I know what happened & I had 3 witnesses. I mean Im not talkin shit or tryin to get anyone mad.......
