Super chipped? Drake what does the superchip do, we have tough time finding chips here, If you could sort one out for me in the UK I would buy it from overseas!
As for your question, there is a guy here by the name of BB1970, he lives in the UK and drives a GTO as well, he's a parts manager for Mitsubishi I believe, contact him, he might know where to get the book since they often stock them.

3sxperformance.com has service manuals. but as far as a step-by-step book that follows your through the process of rebuilding, i'm not sure there's one out there. the 3/S isn't that popular. you'll most likely have to use the service manual and have an extensive knowledge of engines. but ya, send a PM to BB1970.

Yea, please tell all about the chip, if you have a link to a site that would be awsome!

want a superchip? Do a search on 3SI about the unichip, makes great power, but costs a grand.

Redline your car??? dude, you can redline the car anytime, do you mean it elliminates the rev-limiter? you have a link or something where we can read up on it?

drake9995 · #8 02-07-2005, 06:39 AM

more power to the enigne and a higher top speed (removing the limter means u can reach around the 200mph mark )

My friend said that she was in the UK and that her dad had rented a car and was going like 120 MPH, and the cameras caught him, but if he was going like I dunno 140 (so her dad's friend in the UK says) the cameras wouldn't catch him... Also I heard there's some kind of spray on thing that you can put on ur liscence plate so that camera's can't get an acurate reading on it or somthing????

Don't know about that, I would think that is only urban legend type info...

Depends what kind of camera...the spray is available on 3sx's website
But it only works on some kinds of the cameras. I just watched a British show about a half hour ago on the Speed channel and they went through about 15 different types of cameras. The spray will only work on those that have a flash and only take seperate shots.
There are some that take rolling footage and are reviewed 'LIVE' by highway personel in some office somewhere (similar to security room in a casino). There are also ones that inconspicuous cop cars can park relatively near and link up to, and monitor. Etc, etc, so the spray will only help on some.
Each camera has a different purpose, they can monitor running red lights, speeding, tailgating, and reading car's license plate and auto-checking police databanks to see if it's stolen.

It kinda sucks, I mean they even showed one camera that was in Denmark or Holland (forgot which) that was a camera hidden in a trashcan on the side of the road.

I just started thinking, if this type of traffic camera technology becomes wide-spread in the US, I will be kissing my license away pretty quickly. Almost feels like an invasion of privacy.

^ amen brother, that would suck! I know I would start a "bash in all cameras" campaign.

Then they'd just hide another camera watching that one, those bastards! Everyone speeds though so I don't think people would allow widespred use of it. In my town the Police set up radar things that tell you how fast your going and what the speed limit is, I think it would be fun to hook one up to the back of the 4Runner and take it to the woods and have my way with it lol. There aren't any cameras in them thank god.
