Hi MattR, Chef and Primo,

Thom here form Japan Imports, I am looking at our Airtrek as we speak. Sitting quietly in the back of the shed. We are still about 3 months away from having the evidence package completed. Not long to go now. It does drive well and looks heaps better than the Aussie Outlander even in big stock form.

Yes 4G63T, 5 Speed Auto.

No manual version? An auto would make a decent enough daily but I suppose if not a manual conversion wouldn't be too hard.

Don't call me Mr.Scorpion. It's Mr.Scorpi*o*, but don't call me that either. Call me Hank!

;)

Just wondering, is there any word in regards to compliance coming through?

One website is listing them for approx $10,000AUD Landed and Complied (minus tyres and normal registration costs), however another website is listing one for just under $20,000.

That's a huge difference, and would like to know which is the more realistic price, and if compliance is available yet.

Resurrection Time...

JapLink Motors - now JLM - has successfully been able to comply the Mitsubishi Airtrek.

Some other importers in Sydney have had trouble with getting "emissions" testing passed.

JLM does not keep stock. They will accept orders as I'm sure Iron Chef will too.

From the Lancer wagon thread. Best to ask JLM or Chef for a realistic price guide. I would guess compliance will not be as cheap as other vehicles but quality work costs.

From what I hear off many people the Evo GT-A boxes are a heap of shite. Planetary gearsets can move and in turn destroy your box. They're also hard to come by and therefore expensive not to mention the costs of having the box taken out and having it all replaced.

This is the one thing that put me off getting one. They are a hoot to drive. Quicker than their specs make out.

Hey guys, so sorry to dig old post! But I am looking for a daily suv/4wd and quite interested at getting a Mitsubishi Airtrek.

Did anyone actually got themselves one of these? Would love to know any pros/cons or known issues!

Cheers

      Starting again

      By Ozdavroz · Posted

      So my R32 GTST has been sitting around at my old mum and dad's place for a few years now...and it's time to bring it home. Main issue I have is that she hasn't been started in about 5 years or so, so I'm not too keen on just kicking it over and hoping that RB20 reputation for being un-killlable extends to long periods of neglect. My plan is to get it running there so I can move it around,  then get it towed back to my place where I can start working on it properly. The old folks driveway is a bad place to start a project like that. I'm getting old too and also haven't stuffed around with cars since forever, so kinda learning this stuff again. So far I've siphoned out all the shitty old fuel and topped up the coolant (thought it was fully dry but took 2 litres to fill the radiator). Planning on hitting the rusty rotors with some brake cleaner in case the tow truck driver gets a bit gung ho loading it up. As far as oil, it's got plenty although it's now dark in colour and obviously needs a change sooner rather than later. Was doing some YouTube research and was planning to hand-crank the motor from the harmonic balancer with a 37mm socket and breaker bar, removing the spark plugs and spraying some "fogging oil" in the holes but there's not much room to get in there with the radiator fan right up against it. Jacking the car up takes too long and I can't leave it half done between visits. So now I'm was thinking of cranking a few times it using the starter (removing plugs and spraying oil first). Reckon there's any chance it will do more damage that way if something's stuck inside the motor? Should I really change all fluids completely before I go any further? Grateful for any other advice you guys have to get her going safely too.

      Well, that's just wierd. Amongst a string of seemingly benign introduction and request for help threads, we have this one with a link.... to another, unrelated thread inside this forum. Colour me suspicious.

      Import insurance in 2025

      By Duncan · Posted

      So it looks like Lumleys are closing other than in Victoria, with the kind offer that another brand from the evil IAG multi-glomerate (NRMA) might offer insurance under their price and conditions if they want to, as an alternative. Lunmleys was good for us because they covered JDM and USDM imports, had 2 car "stable" insurance (ie, insure many cars but max of 2 can be driven at once), covered mods, reasonable overall prices. So, with them gone, who else should I consider? Shannons is last on my list, we used to be insured with them until we found they were helpful at taking premiums but much less helpful at claim time.
