1997 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 - 11sec car This is not sold by Katech. This is my personal car. Please email jason@Katechengines.com
_JASON
It is the fastest 9B-equipped (stock turbo) VR4 in the world at 11.83 @ 116mph w/1.68 60ft using a 75hp shot of nitrous. Without nitrous it ran 12.31 @ 109. If you're thinking "I don't want a car that has been running a lot of nitrous" I have only ran about 5 bottles of nitrous through the car since I got it, so its not like it has been beat-on at the track for years. It has all the supporting mods for turbos because that was my next step. This baby is ready for a set of 15Gs and run 10s!

This has been a great car to me. It has only needed gas and oil and a vehicle speed sensor. Everything else has just been for fun.
Mods:
INTAKE: K&N cone filter, LS1 Mass AirFlow sensor, MAF-Translator, vacuum hose reduction, Zex N2O 75HP shot, Zex purge.
TURBO: Greddy Type-S Blow-off valve, APEXi AVC-R Boost controller, APEXi turbo timer.
FUEL: Rewired Walbro 255lph fuel pump, APEXi S-AFCii fuel controller, 450cc injectors, AEM wideband mounted in A-pillar.
IGNITION: Denso Iridium IK24's@.030, MSD wires.
EXHAUST: Stainless downpipe. Eliminated front/rear pre-cat and main catalyst. Borla cat-back system.
DRIVETRAIN: South Bend DXD clutch, Unorthodox racing flywheel, CNC machined shifter bushings.
SUSPENSION: Tien S.Tech springs
ELECTRICAL: Optima yellow top battery.
INTERIOR: Reverse indiglo white face gauge overlays. Carbon fiber inner cluster bezel. Carbon fiber vinyl wrapped cluster surround. Autometer 2 5/8 Ultra-lite gauges; electric oil pressure, electric coolant temperature, mechanical boost/vacuum mounted in center of dash with blue LED backlight. A-pillar gauges; Autometer Ultra-lite EGT and Nitrous Pressure. Blue LED courtesy lamps, keyring. Custom fabricated carbon fiber radio trim.
EXTERIOR: APC Super white frost headlamp and fog lamp bulbs. LED tail/stop, backup and license plate lamps, blue neon underbody lights.
Flaws:
-The front fascia was repainted and I think they did a poor job prepping it because it looks like it has a lot of stone chips.
-There is a slow transmission leak. I believe it is coming from the case gasket.
-There is some chrome delamination on the wheels. It is not evident on the face of the wheel, but its there.
-The nitrous feed line has a pinhole near the rear and needs replacement
