Re: Mitsubishi 3000GT / GTO

This is my second GTO - totally stock - targa top with performance coilovers, refurbished interior and exterior. Almost complete, few finishing touches left.

The pic of the second one was taken when we were figuring out height setting, and it was on absolutely low! Have raised it since, quite driveable now!

I get all the stuff myself on the net from the US, everything available by courrier. Fitting done by my mechanics in Bombay Garage, Chowpatty, Mumbai. For the elctronic stuff, have a friend, who is well versed on the GTO, and who helps out from time to time. Else, I try reading up on the net, lots of info available, just have to have the time and patience, and ofcourse a bit of money. Have spent till date approx 8 lakhs and there is no end!

Re: Mitsubishi 3000GT / GTO

Boost controller controls turbo boost, which can be increased thereby increasing power
MAF translator, controls air / fuel ratios, tuning for optimum power output

Re: Mitsubishi 3000GT / GTO

Congratulations for the GTO. You’re a fortunate owner of one. Did you imported or bought it as Pre-owned? The car looks stunning but personally speaking, it would have looked even better with less graphics. Can you share the maintenance costs involved to own a sports car such as this, in India? I’m sure that there are many curious souls who would be interested to know more on this.

Drive Safe,

Re: Mitsubishi 3000GT / GTO

Bought it preowned, graphics are a personal preferance, there are many who like them and more who don't, to each his own, I guess!! Maintenance costs not much. being a Japanese car, spares are quite cheap, and easy to procur, is not locally, then on the net.
