4G Performance and PHD are building a project shop car. The build is a 1988 Mitsubishi Starion/Conquest that 4G has had for a few years now. The main focus of the build is to display what both of our shops can do together.
The car itself needs work but as for the over all shape of the body is in good shape. Time will tell how well it is after we do a complete tare down.
As for the very tired 2.6L that came in this car, we are intalling a 4G63 from a Mighty Max or Montero because of the wide block 4G63 will bolt right to the bellhousing.
This car came complete with leather seats and top of the line options in 88', but that's about to change. We plan on putting in a roll cage, racing seats, custom dash panels, fuel cell, and much much more.
The tare down is almost complete, with the engine and transmission out. If you look close you'll see we need a new windsheild because ours has a big hole in it.
The only thing left before we pressure wash the car is to remove all the wiring so we can take out everything we don't need and see if the mouse that was living in the dash chewed any wires. Yes, that's right I said a mouse and you don't want to know how I found out.
Our goal for this car is to show what we can do together, plus to take it to the track. You might see it a the drag strip, time attack, drifting, or even riding down the road in the Atlanta area.
Stay tuned for more to come............
