I picked up a mitshubishi 3000gt (gto) imported straight from japan.....its running on dohc 24v v6 vr4 engine thats twin turboed and intercooled.....i brought it out for the first time last weekend and amzingly hit 290 kmhs without any hesitation.......im looking to to get the engine completly rebuilt this winter from the ground up including crank and eveything.......i have yet to meet a car that will beet mine.....i have even raced my buddies nissan skyline gt-s with an rb20etc1 engine in it by almost 10 car lengths....the car is running on 375 hp at 4800rpm and 386 pounds of torgue at 4400 rpm.....each turbo is is running just shy of 13 pounds of boost

hahah you bought an awd boat. there is a few of them in town. the twin turbo ones are ok. single turbo conversion better still. they are still too heavy to be anything good. assuming yours is the 3800lb end of the scale, wow....

and wow u beat a puny 2L skyline? feel proud.

seriously don't come here and talk shit :roll:

I wonder if that's why there was a dead troll in your trunk at the meet.
