1991 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX AWD Turbo 5 speed.
This happened to just fall into my lap. One owner. Mint. From an 80 yr old mans wife, he passed away a yr ago, car enthusiast, parked it on carpet in the garage, save every receipt for 24 years kinda enthusiast!
The car has 70,150 original miles. Never crashed. No scratches or dings. Never modded. No leaks or funny noises from the turbo or engine. Trans shifts perfect. Completely factory original down to the radio.
So anyways....
No plans as of yet. I'm just going to start dailying it. Keep it original for now.
Crank the boost a bit later in life... =]
But first. Timing belt change. Last done 12/2006 @65k which was only 5k miles ago. Do I do it again due to it's age?
And do I keep the balance shafts? Is the vibration THAT annoying?
Thanks! -JTe
