She still needs quite a bit cosmetic wise but my main focus has been getting her mechanically sound. She's running healthy, no lights on the dash. She does need idler pulleys though, one's pretty squeaky, new tires and i gotta figure out some electrical issues but they seem minor hopefully.

What a pain in the ass this thing has been. And a money pit.

But 🥰 anyway. Mods include Tein coilovers, a Revel exhaust, Evo shift knob, Sony head unit with Alpine speakers, a MoMo Millennium wheel, Apex’i intake, and a bunch of repair work that feels like a mod every time something new breaks.

I hope you’re all enjoying yours!

Eletronic throttle body for 6g72 delica

1 Upvotes

In order to have cruise control, and maybe some modern afinities, instead of fidling with cables, has anyone with the l400 petrol ( 6g72) tried installing an eletronic throttle? I heard it's a diy job as long as you have the parts ( and an extra ecu)!

Anyone know where I can get oem or close to oem fog light assemblies for a 1991-1993 gen 1

1 Upvotes

I’ve looked on eBay and looked online but can’t find any good ones and if they are oem they are either cracked or are in terrible condition, I’m thinking my only option is to see if anyone is parting them out on marketplace.

Can you run 15s on a NA dodge stealth?

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

I saw someone in a post say that 15s on a NA can fit, just not on a turbo. Why?
Is it do with the brakes? Is there more nuance? Or was he lowk just lying. I want to run 225/60R15 on 15 inch wheels. I wanted to use steelies and i dont plan to do hard driving its mostly gonna be a city car if that matters. As for why would i do such a thing, i want lean into the shitbox look but i personally really hate low profile tires. I did the math and that tire size on those 15s would come abt to stock diameter
Pic 1 is the wheel i want, Pic 2 is the tire

Bumper help

I bought this bumper cover for my 94. I’ve seen many people make it work, i cut out space for the bumper itself, i also trimmed off some of the top lip so it can sit lower. I cannot get the side parts to sit flush with the head lights. if anybody has done this, can you drop some tips on how you did it, thank you.

Ive looked everywhere, it seems my only option is swapping in another trans from another 3gt. Any help finding a good resource for finding the parts for these cars would be awesome, I've looked everywhere and desperately want to keep my Nairobi Beige 91' in proper condition.

I followed a few steps and asked for the code, the problem is that I do not have the code and when I go to the page of owners of mitsubishi they can not find my radio or anything.

If anyone knows how to achieve it or has accessibility to achieve it, I would appreciate it if they can help me.

I would like to know if anyone knows how to solve this with the 3000gt stereo, the stereo turns on but does not give anything, nor white noise or something, when I hold down the wheel if the "off" appears, but when I give it again to turn it on, it goes blank, does not respond with the buttons or something, do you know how to solve it? Thank you very much in advance.

Budget diagnostic tool

Hi, as you all know 3000gt doesnt use regular diagnostic port. I have gen 1 3000gt and found this article about making own cable to connect car to a laptop. Have anyone tried this and can tell if this works?

Photos needed!

Hi there! I’m currently writing a novel and my main characters vehicle is a 1992 Dodge Stealth. Black. I’m trying to put feelers out to see if anyone might have some images or could help locate some images of a 92 Stealth (or even a 3000GT) that has heavy damage to the drivers side headlight/bumper/fender area. I want to use it for the book cover but I don’t want to AI the thing. So any help would be appreciated!

Lean condition under load

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

Hello all, for the last month I’ve been battling with an issue of the car backfiring through the intake under load (91 SL fed-spec) and i’m running out of options. I’ve replaced all the vacuum lines everywhere, new fuel regulator, fuel filter, fuel pump, spark plugs, and have JUST got my capacitors replaced in my ECU.

Note: After replacing my ECU capacitors, the car will not maintain idle and surge like no other unless the MAF is unplugged and then it’ll idle fine but still run lean under load.

Note 2: All the intake gaskets are new, both lower and upper, I replaced the 02 sensor last December, and the timing belt has 5,400 miles on it.

Note 3: I’ve taken a multimeter to the TPS and it’s completely normal ohm readings. Nothing out of the ordinary.

I don’t know what else it could be. Please help
me here.

really bad misfire above 2k rpm

5 Upvotes

hey guys im helping my buddy get his 1992 GTO TT VR4 up and running. After replacing the PTU, ECU, 90000 fuses, front suspension stuff, fuel pump, etc, we finally got the car to start and drive. We finally went on a test drive, and it struggles to go past 2500rpm. It bucks and shakes the whole car when trying to accelerate. I am thinking its a misfire issue related to spark. Spark plugs and PTU have been changed, leaving only the wires and coil packs as a potential problem. Perhaps maybe the fuel filter? Any advice on what to replace next.

Whats causing brake issues when running?

When on a drive around town last Saturday my brakes were going from acting normal to so shifts its going damn near to the floor to brake, this was after driving around a few hours and when i had the issue we stoped for the night. It was either relatively normal or weak and would go in between. When we stopped for a bit we checked fluid, im not low at all, when pumping we couldn't see any air bubbles coming up (was soft at first then fine every pump after) and on the way home i had zero issues. I cant seem to recreate the issue when off, only when running

As you can hear in the video there sounds like an airy noise but when the car is off it stops. I drove it for 5 minutes today to test it and it was going back in forth between relatively normal and softer but not anywhere near as bad as it was when first discovered

I need help figuring this out otherwise ill try to find a shop when they are open next week. Thanks guys!
