1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST - DSM

[Jason08]

I am sad to say that it is finally time to sell my beloved GST. I have owned the car since 2004, and it has been my daily driver since then ÔÇô IÔÇÖve put about 50,000 miles on the car in the past 7 years, and the car has been great. I recently had a child, so it is time that I move on. Many of you have seen or ridden in this car - DJ can vouch for it.

It's currently listed on craigslist for $6000 - but for mm'ers i'll let it go right now for $5000 - i need it sold asap for day care money. I'll also throw in a butt-load of extra parts for mm'ers

Now for the bad ÔÇô The car has some dents and dings, as it is a used car - but they donÔÇÖt show up well in the pictures ÔÇô mainly the front bumper (easily replaced). One of the belt squeaks some times, it goes away after a minute or two. The AC works, but not super cold, so it probably needs to be recharged. There is a trim piece in the driverÔÇÖs side door where the window buttons go that needs to be replaced. I may get around to replacing it this week, I may not. The wheels have some curb rash on them. There is a wide band gauge, but I never got around to getting the bung for the wideband sensor welded in, so IÔÇÖll throw all that in with the car if the price is reasonable. Finally the overflow tank didnÔÇÖt fit anymore after the front mount intercooler was installed, so IÔÇÖve been using a Gatorade bottle, but it actually works great (although it looks a little funny). The car could use some additional tuning, but having the wideband installed would help for that.

Thanks,

-Jason

I drove his gs-t last night and holy crap the thing is quick. Wish I could have done a third or 4th gear pull. Even with 245s it was almost impossible to put power down, in second you have to extremely careful. I forgot the power these things make so easily.......

Buy this, refresh the suspension with new konis for $450, new bushings if you felt like it, and an LSD and this thing would be sooooo awesome.
