New member saying what's up!

Re: New member saying what's up!
Blink - Thanks, I'm coming from a beat up 1996 Mitubishi Eclipes Spyer GS. The top leaked bad so im glad I got rid of it and have a hard top again.
SL3000 - Thanks also, I got lucky and bought it like that. The sad that about my car is that it's a BASE model. I would be happy with just 40 more hp.

Re: New member saying what's up!
***Update***
So I thought I bought a BASE model 3000gt. To my surprise, that GTO on the back was not a fancy sign someone made up (like I thought). This car was listed as having just 161hp@5500rpm, SOHC, FR drive, etc... I checked out the FAQ's then did some research of my own.. This is what I have... Grade GTO SR, produced from 1998 (august) GENERAL Body type Coupe Drive FULL 4WD Transmission Advanced 5 speed manual Displacement, cc 2972 Frame GF-Z15A-MNPM Price of new car, thousands yen (Tokyo area) 2998 (~$24900) SPECIFICATION (SPECS) EXTERIOR Exterior dimensions (LxWxH), mm 4600 x 1840 x 1285 Interior dimensions (LxWxH), mm 1570 x 1510 x 1070 Wheel base, mm 2470 Treads (F/R), mm 1560 / 1580 Ground clearance, mm 145 Curb vehicle weight, kg 1600 Gross vehicle weight, kg Seating capacity, persons 4 Doors number 3 Min.turning radius, m 5.7 Fuel tank capacity, l 75 ENGINE Displacement, cc 2972 Engine model 6G72 Max.power (Net), kw(PS)/rpm 225 ps (165.49 kw) / 6000 rpm Max.torque(Net), N*m(kg*m)/rpm 28.0 kg*m (274.59 N*m) / 4500 rpm Power density 7.11 Engine type V type 6 cylinder DOHC24 valve Engine information Fuel system ECI-MULTI (electrically controlled gasoline injection) Turbocharger No Fuel type Unleaded premium gasoline LEV system (Low emission vehicle) No Compression ratio 10 Bore, mm 91.1 Stroke, mm 76 Final gear ratio N/A Fuel consumption at 10-15 modes, l/100km 10.8 Fuel consumption N/A

Re: New member saying what's up!
Yeah, can you post picks of the engine bay and of the rear differential. Not saying I doubt you, it's just pretty uncommon for them to be imported to the USA. Not really cost effective, you know. SR is the DOHC 222hp AWD version of teh SL basically. If it is in fact an SR, congrats you maybe the only guy on here with one.

Re: New member saying what's up!
Ok here are pics of the interior & engine bay. Although this looks like a SOHC, at this point i have a feeling that this is a true GTO. If base models dont come with Leather seats, whoever had the car before put alot of work in the interior..
 Here is a quote from Wikipedia Quote:
 Here's a side shot  Here's a tag

Re: New member saying what's up!
That's an SOHC plenum.
Easy way to tell, look under the back of hte car. Is there a rear differential between teh 2 rear wheels?  Is there a driveshaft going from the front to rear of the car? What side is hte steerng wheel on?
