Hello everyone, I am Richard Parker, I live in Minnesota with my parents, I am 17 years old and do my stuff out of the driveway xD.

My car:



This is a really rare 1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 Twin Turbo, it makes 270WHP and made 320BHP when it was stock, at the flywheel, she pulls nicely and wasn't the most reliable thing.
Mods: Brembo 2nd hand brakes, the diks and pads are kinda done for
Greedy Coilovers - Bought them cheap from Ebay
Advan Rims.



That's the engine, the 6G72, not the most reliable thing ever, bone stock.


The story:
I bought this car from a older man that bought it new, it stood in a garage since 2002 which means it was pretty knackered, I needed new ignition coils, spark plugs, battery, injectors and belts. The car still has electronic issues which I am working on fixing but mechanically it's a-okay and has really low mileage, about 20K

Looking for:
A stroker kit for the 6G72
2000CC Injectors and some bigger turbos after I mount the stroker kit
Sway bars.

Plans:The car for now is gonna be my daily, I am thinking of making it a drag car, we'll see xD

My dad's car:




He sadly died of cancer 6 years ago, his car is still in storage but I may take it out sometime.

Nice Mitsubishi, it's strange that it lost 50 hp with a low mileage like that. And i hope you can get that 240Z back on the road :)

It has a ancient 4WD system so I am guessing it lost quite a bit trough that xD

I am doing a swap quicker than expected, buying a 6g75 with 95mm parts to have a displacement of 3.8, next on the list is getting some beefier turbos and fix my brake issue.

So this whole day I stripped the engine down because I am replacing the whole bottom end, quite hyped for the performance improvement.

Added 10 minutes later:

Also oredered some Competiion Camshafts and massive injectors for another 1500 V$, I'm gonna be making a crap-ton of power.

Okay so, we just got it off the dyno after we tune'd it on E85, and I am making 600 freaking horsepower somehow, it's running as much boost as the turbos can push (that beign around 12 pounds). I also got a new set of coilovers and brakes, it runs like a champ now, can't wait to share some pics.

Well, I passed on the 3000GT, I didn't want to but I got an offer I couldn't refuse, that beign 18500 V$ from a friend that helped me build it. ((I lost my save-game so ye, I'm gonna start over)). I still have the Z but I doubt I'd be building it anytime soon...Or maybeeee I will, I dunno'.

Added 1 hour 5 minutes later:

Sooo! I just bought a new car from a friend of mine's father, it's a Corrado VR6! and guess how much I've paid for it? Only 2500V$! The reason it's that cheap is because the front suspension is kinda collapsed and the ABS pump is gone which is gonna be expensive to fix.

So guess what I have done with a collapsed front suspension? WENT FOR A TOP SPEED RUN!



Yep, I did 180KPH till the front started getting too wobbly so I lifted off, it's so good, it pulls so hard and the N/A is just amazing, I love it naturally aspirated and that is how it's gonna stay!


My friend snatched a picture of me passing by, the front really look unhappy.


The front end also has some chips and scuffs but it's alright, I'll fix it later.






I have some great plans for it which I am really excited about, those beign:
VR6 3.6 DOHC 16V Swap, as the current engine is a SOHC 8V 2.8 VR6
New coilovers and brake system (with ABS pump) ASAP!
Maybe some new rims and tires to support the swap and whatnot, it's gonna be lit though :3

So ehm, I found a cheap bolt-on supercharger, so as my horsepower crazy mind told me, I had to get it. It was 2000VS and it gave me a pretty massive 80 horsepower bonus f rom the stock 200.

But then...


I went to the drag strip and the car was FAST, 13 second 1/4 time, it was stupidly fast, then I kept going trying to reach the top speed and I went to 240KPH which was really scary.

The problem was...



I braked to turn around, popped it into first and then...POW, first gear went out, after 250,000KM on this transmission, upon further investigation the fluids for the transmission were really old sadly. Currently looking into getting a 6 speed transmission.



Also I got these sick RBW rims with Toyo R888 tires, and H&R Coilovers with Brembo brakes, now I have 10000 left which most will probably get into buying a new trans. Now I need a daily :(

That's a nice color on the Corrado. Reminds me of a mix between Midnight Purple and Plum Crazy for some reason.

It kinda is I belive, it looks great though and I am really happy that it's the stock color.


I'm awaiting to recieve the Stagea this morning, the shipping services have messaged me regarding it and it should be coming soon.

So this happened yesterday...I was getting off a free-way exit, and some jackass in a BMW blew past and cut me off, side-swiped the shit out of the Corrado and pretty much totaled it, the insurance company considered it completly totaled and gave me 15K because it's a "Historical vehicle" which means I am making mad profit, but also meeeaaaans.

My parents got hella mad at me, and they are sending me away to live with my older cousin in Canada...I'll still have the money for a car but yea...


RIP the Corrado, died for our vapes...Also sold the Stagea for 10000VS ((My save-game took a shit))

Added 15 minutes later:

((Me and Boosted merged our topics togheter as we are doing some pretty dank RP and all))

First update since I came to Toronto and it's fucking cold here, Minnesotta wasn't much better though, but yea, I got picked up by the Uber driver and Matt, who then brought me to buy a fucking....DSM -_-, really though, he has a obsession for these things, and he also had my money so he obliged me to buy it, but basically. It's a MINT 99'GSX, with no rust, low mileage and looks in perfect condition, it's also fully original (not for long tho). It feels slower than the Corrado (especially after the Supercharger), but it goes hard off the line. It's pretty quick, I like it, small and the engine has a lot of aftermarket support...Now let's hope I don't have another Lemon.
