Mitsubishi RVR

[ygoslo]

I absolutely love the Hyper Sportsgear R.

See what you really need is an ST-R

Oh dear. We go down this road again Brad
The guy I bought my VR4 off had an ST-R but couldn't sell it as it was disallowed under the SEVS power-to-weight limitations. My rims came off that car.
If I could have, I would have ! :sad:

Tim. OMG we agree on something ? I like their look too... but it's specifically not the turbos I'm looking at.

 

[bradc]

Did they make awd magna wagons? what about a v6 adventra wagon?

 

[ygoslo]

There was a damaged ST-R for sale on carsales a little while ago. Might still be there?

But yeah I like RVRs. The interior is really flexible and useful, and they look great once you lower them and fit big wheels. I wouldn't buy one (if I wanted a people mover I'd get an Elgrand, if I wanted a 4WD I'd get a MU or something, and if I wanted an Evo I'd get a.......Galant ), but I still think they're cool.

 

[ygoslo]

what about a v6 adventra wagon?

Truly awful cars.

 

[bradc]

Well it won't get Brad much fuel economy, but it will be reliable, simple, and run on 91

Nah that my first idea, but the AWD system wouldn't fit on the wagons (go figure?)

Trying to steer clear of Magnas too.... & Holdens too.

 

[bradc]

Legacy H6 3.0 then.

 

[ygoslo]

What size does it need to be? Delica or 4WD Estima too big? I'm assuming you want 4WD.

 

[RaZZa137]

aren't RVR's 4 seater?? or maybe i saw wrong in some pictures...

 

[king_panther]

Small.... 4WD perferable... small engine/fuel use... particular price range.

yea eyeing a few Outbacks too...

anyways dudes let's get back to the mechanicals of the RVRs. Do they share a lot with the lancers or anything like that ?

I believe there's a lot of Evo in them, so they should be very strong.

 

[bradc]

That shape is the same drivetrain as an evo 3 basically

 

[ygoslo]

I'm sure I'll get yelled at, but.......why not a Caldina?

Reliable, right price, heaps of room, better on fuel than a VR4....

 

[bradc]

True. Can you get a non-turbo Caldina over there?

What about a Mark II Blit?

I actually just found one. (non turbo Caldina).

How about them ? Do they share parts with anything ?

 

[bradc]

and the Blit?

 

[king_panther]

and the Blit?

No idea what that is ?

 

[ygoslo]

and the Blit?

Only as a personal import.

The Caldina shares a 4wd system with the Celica GT4, along with other things no doubt. Toyota ALWAYS re-use their bits in a bunch of cars.
