Ich bin Erikki und ich komme aus Holland.
Ich muss erstens mich entschuldige für meiner deutschen Schreiben, Sprechen und Lesen ist gut, aber schreiben, dass ist sehr schwer für mich
. Ich hoffe, Sie werden mir erlauben, weiter in Englisch zu schreiben.I own a Mitsubishi 3000GT MK2 .
I have bought this car back in 2008 in Switzerland.
In 2008 I was still driving an Honda CRX Vtec ’91. I tune the car to about 200Bhp en have driven more than 515000Km with the car now(still the original engine, no revision =D>) It’s a great car, rev limiter at 9500rpm
, its sound like a fighter jet!! And I’m going to keep it for a very long time, I hoop.But… I’m looking for and more comfortable car, to drive around, so I made a wish list for myself.
I want to stay by the sport coupé 2+2 , but more luxurious. But also Fast, AWD, leather seats, air-conditioning and safe.
The biggest problem was the AWD, there are a lot of cars with AWD, but not many are a sport coupe.
I quickly ruled out the Lamborghini’s and Bugatti Veyron’s, just a little over my budget .
so I found the Audi TT, porsche carrera 4 and also The Mitsubishi 3000GT. Well the TT, It just doesn’t look good in my opinion, Carrera’s are not that special anymore, So 3000GT is a good option.
After a long search on the internet I found one, a 1996 3000gt blue metallic with only 50000Km and in new condition. As I read here on the forum, it also has a rare 5 speed gearbox
In June 2008 I bought that one and imported into the Netherlands. Maybe not the cheapest option but I could not find a good car here in the Netherlands.
In the beginning I had some expensive repairs on the airco system and later on one of the turbo’s after a fast drive over the autobahn 31 from Düsseldorf to Bunde.
As of now the car has the following modifications;
-13T Turbo's Evil Empire Performance
-3rd Generation Hydrolic Lifters
-DN Performance Pre Cat Eliminators
-Front Down Pipe Amber Performance
-K&N replacement Filter
-Turbosmart Dual stage boost controller
-RPS Max Series street disc
-RPS SYN-R-G flywheel
-Ferodo DS2500 pads Front
-Stillen Sport Rotors, cross-drilled Front
-SPA Dual Gauge Boost & Oil pressure and Water & Oil temperture
-Splitsecond ARM1 Air/Fuel Ratio Meter
-Barracuda Superfast 8,5 x 18 with Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetri 2 (F) 245/40ZR18Y
-3000GT Original 17" with Pirelli 210 Snowsport 225/50R17 H
I’m also a member at the GTOuk Forum. But this forum is also very nice. My car has more in common that the UK cars. SO I’m going to read trough the forum :-" .
I have a couple of questions already and will ask them later on.
If I can help someone please don’t hesitate and feel free to ask!!!!
