Now that's a nice ride..And an even better deal..Have you changed the timing belt, and water pump yet?I had to ask..

Got all of it replaced about 2 years ago at the dealer (had no mechanical experience at the time)

gettin close to the next change time though, gonna be doing it myself this time.
Hopefully if I have another car by then, so I can pull the motor and do a proper(or just easier) balance shaft eliminator

the 1g's that i know of with no hump are the 1.8l wet-dream version

I thought the laser rs also came without the bump?

I have a buddy with a 1.8, and It's got the bump..

You going to replace it already, man you must be getting close to 60k..Unless you just want to do it, so you can do the BS eliminator

I'd really love to see one of these hoods without the bump..
 
The one I saw personally was on a teal 1g that used to always be parked in front of a Korean nail salon around the corner from my shop. It looked as stock and unmodified as could be.

In the talk thread I linked to, guys were spotting them in junkyards all over the place, so I would say they are rare. Probably almost all crushed.
 
Of the 20 or 30 1.8 1ga I have seen all have been flat hoods. I even owned one.

But the only rare parts I have come across are. Tan rear deck lid still have in my atic. And a horn button with a factory "turbo" badge on it, wich is also still in my attic. And I do not own any 1gs to put them on any more.

Found that pic on DSMtalk, I'm pretty sure they were factory hoods on some 1.8L cars.
rare or not? Flat hood.... - DSM Forums: Mitsubishi Eclipse, Plymouth Laser, and Eagle Talon Forum: DSMtalk.com

Probably gonna get it all done at 110K

I meant 60k since the last replacement..

You have a 1g horn button with turbo on it, no way.You got a pic, I might want that..
 
Im selling my fully 100% stock one. i put the original wheels back on. took the gauges out, put the intake back on and the original stereo back on. 98k miles goes for 4300 bucks next saturday.
 
I think the OP may be referring to rare versus discontinued or hard to find now.

I would say mudflaps are one of the most rare items you will find.

had a 91 laser rs auto turbo. Had a hump. Only the DL talons and think the RS eclipse didnt have the hump and had 1.8L I know the talon did but not sure about the eclipse since they were the PREMIUM cars. LOL ;)
 
The rarest item you will find on a 1g has to be the darth vader cap on top of the BOV. Rarest part ever!
 
^^^^Well, then I have several of the rarest part ever. And so does another person in another thread exactly like this one.
 
Factory wired down AND up electric windows, window stickers from the dealer, a Japanese owners manual, that's all I can think of that hasn't been mentioned.
 
Help me out here... I got lost at a few places...

Factory wired down and up electric windows...??
Darth Vader BOV cap...??
Tan rear deck lid...??
CUP HOLDER...???????
We had a cargo net...??


Yea so pictures and explanations would be awesome for myself and anyone else going WTF right now...
