Its for my GF. She loves my car and wants something turbo, but not wicked fast. She wants a 96-99 GST or GSX. Anybody know anything bad about them, or anything I should look for? I've heard about the crankwalk thing but other then that they seem pretty good.



Any opinions?

haha Actually I heard the suspension on the mitsus is shitty, and I know it is cuz my bro had one, but GSX is nice.. AWD abd Turbo..

check out www.turbo4wd.com



thats a friends site. The motor is good, but the drivetrain cannot handle abuse if you plan to drag race it.

Nah no drag racing. Its for my GF. Just a BOV and exhaust for her

Get a new timing belt as soon as you buy it. Plus the crankwalk as you already know.









Do not let her see THIS, or you will soon have a very thin wallet.

just be careful cuz the engine in the 2g can go up out of nowhere, as well as the tranny. most of my friends have dsms and anyone that has a fast 2g has a 1g engine in it, i don't know anyone with a 2g that hasn't crank walked. If you want to avoid all these problems you'll need to get a 99 or at the very least a 98. I haven't heard of any 99s crankwalking and very few 98s.

Yeah most of the ones for sale are 98's. Thats probably what she'll end up with.
