1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSXOriginal AWD model, excellent shape, not abused, 99000 miles. I purchased this car a few years ago and stored in our garage. I purchased this as a project car to re-build, or to build as a race car, but over time I lost interest. The car ran but had white smoke coming out of the exhaust and the owner said that it had a knock noise. One issue turned out to be a bad turbo which was replaced with a used one, exact stock same type, which cured the smoke problem. I took the pan down and found main and rod bearings to be in tact, in excellent shape and engine was very clean, oil was changed often. I did find a bearing in the pan, it was the center bearing from the balance shaft on the left side, toward the front of the car. I put the pan back on, and got it running. It still makes noise but it seems to be coming from the transfer case unit not the engine. The car does run, will drive forward and backward, but will need to be fixed before it could be considered driveable. Everything from the sunroof, tilt wheel, power windows, power seat all work, the air conditioning is cold, the leather interior is in excellent condition, the exterior paint is amazing on this car, plus the exterior trim is in excellent condition. Looks like the brakes are new, rotors were replaced with the drilled/slotted after market type and the tires are all in good condition. I replaced the battery (new) a few months ago when I decided to sell it, and over time I have a list of parts which I purchased that will go with it. There is a new front mount intercooler 29x8x3.5 w/2.5, a new TD05 polished Turbo, a new Walpro GSS342 fuel pump, a gasket set, used parts such as a coil on plug set, extra spark plugs, extra coil, extra throttle body, headlight bulbs, extra set of rear lights, body engine stress bar, a auto meter pyrometer, hks oil cover, extra used head complete valves to cams. This car is in excellent shape for someone who wants a AWD GSX to build for racing or just for the street, fewer of these in this shape are around. This car does not come with any warranties and is sold "as is", I will answer all questions as best as I can and everything listed will come with the auction. The car should be towed to avoid any further damage. Good Luck.
