I hope you guys like this vid as much as I did.



Everyone likes to make fun of the 3G...I want to mod mine so bad now...after the Cosmo swap....



3G Tearing up a Road Course



This is a Road/Race Engineering tuned car, by the way.

I don't think it is a horrible car, but they sort of fucked up when they dropped the AWD and the 4g63, nothing can replace boost

Well, the thing is, I dyno more than the GS-T or GSX cars...just the lack of aftermarket stuff sucks.



HKS abandoned their turbo kit for the car some time ago...but other companies are taking up the slack.

it doesn't take much from the 1gs to get into the 13s though....gs are a lil harder, but buy a 16g and your there.



My friend just sold his 92 gsx and is buying a 99 gst

I thought the 3G was a horrible move for Mitsu. From what I read when they first came out they got slower and changed to FWD. wth were they thinkin?

The GS-T and GSX (1 and 2g) were FWD and AWD, respectively.

FYI, the DSMs you see in this vid were fitted with JIC suspension by John Mueller (RRE) as well as the 3G.
