Dear all,

Is it possible to get a Mitsubishi eclipse in Malaysia..?

[import2NR]

well so far no... when i was in United States back in 1996 , there was so
many Eclipse around on the road. But anyway its a nice car, looks good
too. Dont know what engine is inside, cant remember ,i believe maybe VR4
or any of those Lancer engine such as 4G91 or so ??

its a VR4.. n u cant get one here unless you import yurself.. cos its
LHD, its very troublesome

[Conrod]

For information , those cars are SOHC , but I really like the car shape ,
but not the engine , they should put in DOHC , at least becoz DOHC is
almost considered a de facto standard on new cars. But nice car shape

Hmm.... very nice car actually. i kinda like it too but i guess too much
trouble to bring it here. I have seen it once, here in malaysia.... i was
on my way home,saw it at taipan usj and the car chau damn fast when the
traffic light turn green.The car is red in color and the registration
number is local. Young guy driving it..... damn......you guys like it too??

The new Eclipse are crap. Utter crap. No longer you get the turbocharged
AWD Eclipse of the old. YOu end up with a FWD front heavy stilly "ribbed
for your pleasure" styling that is slow slow slow. Oh and it handles like
a wet noodle especially the Spyder version.

Mitsubishi Eclipse like they said are ADM (American Development Models)
where Japanese themselves dun get to eclipses back in Japan...
the engine that the eclipse uses is not a VR4...but as all mitsubishi 2.0
turbo engines are coded as 4G63...as a result the eclipse's engine's 4G63
and so does the VR4 Galant's and Lancer Evolutions...
but all three are not the same block..probably..similar in components but
not all..and most obvious difference is the ECU..
but i do believe there are also NA eclipse models...

well gettin' an eclipse in m'sia aren't that easy..as i only managed to
spot one or two eclipses here b4...
anyhow..even if u r lucky enough to find/own one, guess it would be u'll
have a tough time lookin' for replacement parts here..

and not forgettin'..since its an ADM..the eclipses usually comes with left
hand drive only..
