Few of my many SQ's lol...

[tsiconquest88]

Here is pics of my 89 fiji blue quest i am in the process of making more of a monster than my past black 89 mpi quest and my 89 starion (1 of the 159 actual mitsu starions made in 89 to the USA). I no longer have pics of my 88 quest with the 350 v8 i put in it or any of my other SQ's. Here is a couple pics of each in order as mentioned and i will edit pics as i start putting the carbon fiber body panels on the fiji and all the stuff going in the engine bay. Still havent gotten around to taking pics of my 89 turbo voyager lol. I have a few pics of my addition of a SQ front mount i added to the van but thats it. Anyway here we go.

In its stock form. No engine or tranny and awaiting the build and Blue tinted Carbon kevlar updated bumpers, hood and some other misc body parts of the like.


T-70 powered, MPI converted black 89. Sold off a few years ago. Guess it dont count anymore but i figured i would toss the 2 cars in here with the fiji and the soon to come van pics lol which will bne in the regular section of the site. the pic of the engine bay is after i sold it all to a friend in CT and the pic is of it all in his 88 silver starion, all of it was mine except the turbo in the pic for the most part, he added that turbo on and I sold the master power T-70 seperately from the car and engine bay stuff and other goodies it had. I still have the engine from the pic and its being used in my fiji.


1 of 159 89 starions in the USA. I'm friends with the guy i sold it to (originally bought it from him just about stock) so, in turn at least i always know where it is lol, as far as i remember him saying, his uncle, himself and me are the only owners since it was new. Stats on it were a complete customized TBI setup modded from stock. Bigger injectors, evo 3 ported big 16g, all braided lines on fuel and turbo, etc. HDI electronic boost controller. 2.5 inch downpipe to a 3" KDM stainless exhaust and SFP tube header. 20 psi daily. Stock but new non-jet valve head casting with ARP head studs and felpro perf 9116 head gasket, stock bottom end. Actually i will stop here cus the list goes on and pretty much nothing was stock except the bottom end and tranny as well as interior with the exception of a custom radio bezel and gauge cluster. Gotta find a pic of this engine bay as i dont remember where i have them, if i even do anymore. It was a very nice clean setup as well.

Nice man!

I like those cars, and I can't remember the last time that I've seen one on the streets... very cool.

[tsiconquest88]

thanks man, i love them too lol. I have been into the cars before i was even old enough to get a permit lol I owned my first one in 95 just before i got my permit lol. My cousin had a fiji blue (same color as the one i have now). He had bought it 2 or 3 years old at the time (1992 or 93 i forget, something like that). My other cousin had been into the other dsm's- eclipses etc. and had a 90 eclipse gsx in a blue color. Overall i like the SQ so much more than the other dsm's. Although i love the vr4 galant and def plan on owning one, one of these days. Of course lets not forget i am diggin the TD's too lol. Somehow my mindset changed. I didnt like them and my friend had a 90 daytona shelby VNT, i thought it was kind of ugly but yes heck fast. Didnt think i would ever owne a TD till i had got my 89 2.5tona years after that cus it was givin to me by a dude that owed me money. I loved the car actually. It blew up as some of you may remember my posts about it on my other username. Now i got a turbomini. I love it too. And i plan to grab some other TD's too lol. Plan to get a spirit R/T and any of the turbo omni's. GLHT would be my more enjoyed one lol

When I was a kid (which wasn't that long ago lol) I lived in the bay area, SF California. I remember walking to the mall, hearing a PISSED off spool up and blow off...conquest! I would have to say that I've seen as many of them on the road back then as I see WRX's now( ok! not THAT many, but ALOT)

I wanted one back then but pops said

[tsiconquest88]

Thanks man lol. My black one actually came from cali, i dont have it anymore and i dont have the blue one now either lol. Im moving away from them for a bit to put money into the mini i got and i want an omni glhs and a spirit RT. Othet TM i want too but for now i will go with that haha. How old are ya? i got the impression u were young in the beginning of the post then u said back then u seen a lot of the cars so im like huh lol. The guy i got the black one from back when i flew out to cali to get it, had about 20 of them, 5 or so at his house he took me to and the rest at a huge shop he had with a bunch of other cars.

[2point3]

Holy shit!!!!!!!! Was the shop in Daily City california?! And there were alot of other hot rods and weird projects in the garage as well, huge garage.....that would be really weird. Was the "guys" name Turbo? Let me know, that would be so crazy.

I'm actually about to go pick up my first starquest, just a shell but its an 89 tsi and in great condition other than the fact it's missing a motor and trans. I am going to squeeeze a 350 into it....possibly twin turbo in the future?

[tsiconquest88]

Wow it is the same guy hahahaha. turbo is his call by name for whatever reason lol. his real name is tyrell morris. what did u go over there for just curious? Boy he is a weird guy with the black spandex he was wearing and what looked to be lipstick. Wow i thought it was a girl when he climbed out of the car from picking me up from the airport.

[2point3]

Dude, it is the same ''guy'' LOL!!! I went over to his shop because I needed a pair of conquest rims and my buddy Clay Adams knew him some how......geez, he must have many pairs of spandex pants because that's what he was wearing when i met him as well, oragne wavy hair....ugly guy and EVEN UGLIER CHICK(if you could even make that mistake). Dude, the world is crazy small!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I seriously almost cant' believe this
