[@RoadsUntraveled]

Welcome back! This is PART 1/5 in our Fast and Furious series here on the channel :D Next episode is on the HERO TRUCK (Used on screen) from the 4th movie. LIVE NOW! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bH_Ke4h8l756rsk. Remember, it's not how you stand by your car, it's how you race your car. You better learn that! P.S.! Seeing a LOT of comments on the movie car not being a GSX, but in fact an RS just like this one with the 420a. I feel like a lot of people are mis-interpreting what I said and quickly commenting. I said ""Brian O'Conner's" Eclipse in the movie was supposed to be a GSX." Within the FICTION of the movie. Because I said Brian O'Conner, the character's name. I know the ACTUAL movie car has a 420a... But in the Dodger's Stadium scene there are plenty of turbo and blow-off noises to be heard. So within the fiction of the movie (suspension of disbelief) the Eclipse is supposed to be either a GS-T or a GSX. I just assume GSX because why would he not get the top model with an $80,000 budget from the FBI. ;) Hope this clears things up. So yes, the car used on set was base GS non-turbo model. and yes, the car within the fiction of the movie is portrayed as either a GS-T or GSX turbo model. (Due to all of the turbo noises it makes)

Those DSM cars were built in my hometown of Normal, Illinois. I remember as a kid seeing the plants car yard full of gen 1 and gen2’s. The lot is insanely huge. Sadly, the Highway exit no longer says Mitsubishi Motor Way. The Plant is now owned by Rivian, and since been renamed 100 Rivian Motorway. I truly hope it brings us jobs if we can all make it through Covid-19. So glad I saw this episode, it brought me right back to my youth. I can proudly say I got to drive a Gen 1 with a 4G63 5 speed turbo brand new when I was 16yrs old circa’93. Amazing cars. Who knew those motors would still be animals to this very day.

Okay so a couple things. I owned a 1995 GS-T from 1995-200 ( I totaled it) This is an awesome car. Just 1 correction. In the car in the movie, was a 1995 RS. Not a 1999 GS-T. (Yes with the Neon engine) All the turbo sounds and engine sounds in the movie were dubbed in later. The RS is front wheel drive with a cheaper stereo, no rear widow wiper either, and no fog lamps Also the GS-T, has a moonroof, and is front wheel drive, The GS-X is the only one that’s all wheel drive (The other difference between the GS-T and GS-X is that the GS-X came with a power drivers seat that was leather.) The GS-X may have had more stuff, but the GA-T was faster because it was way lighter. Both the GS-T and GS-X had the same turbo 4, making 210 HP Stock. So this car was absolutely done exact!

Everyone bashing the 420a probably never drove a RS. Sure 140hp is SLOW but it’s shifty and very simple. Not much electronics to worry about, no boost probs, just a simple yet durable 4 banger. I have a $800 magnaflow catback on mine and I have a blast driving it. Sounds as good as a Type R. No BS. I beat on the motor every now and then and I’ve had no issues! I bought mine without knowing how to drive stick and drove it home (70 miles). You can imagine how much clutch wear that is. But 3 months later and no issues at all. DSM’s are definitely head turners when done right. I highly recommend a RS/GS as a first car or project.
