Heck, I'd probably be more than happy with just half that.

They sell them in America and that means once I get a real paying job I am buying one!

I'll settle for 2000lbs if it means I get a hard roof and an engine bay big enough for a turbo V8.

That's easy... make your own. Do as my buddy is doing... (or is it me doing all the work) and put a 4G63 in it—you'll have more than that without having to tweak anything.

That sounds scary. . . but think of all the fun I could have trying to kill myself!

The problem with the 4G63Ts in this configuration are that all you can get with respect to rear-wheel drive transmissions are the ones used in the D50/Mighty Max, which aren't really built for high horsepower applications. While I like the 4G63T better than the SR20DET, the SR20DET tends to be a better choice for rear-wheel drive project cars.

That's easily taken care of. We have a custom bellhousing to bolt up to a Supra transmission... we have the supra rear end as well.

You, sir, are far more craftier than I was when I was into Mitsubishis. :)

But from my personal experiences, it's a shame the Starion never came with the 4G63 in the U.S. the ability to add a rev-happy motor with a modern fuel injection and plentiful aftermarket support would have been amazing.

Best of luck with your build.
