Speaking of Mitsu engines, why did they ever switch from the common 3.0L down to a 2.5L version and then back to the 3.0? 3.0 was very common in the early 90s, then mid 90s Avenger, Sebring, Eclipse went to the 2.5, then back to the 3.0 around 2001...?
Anyone ever notice Mitsubishi FWD drivetrains are backwards to ours? Chrysler uses an East-West arrangement, whereas Mitsubishi cars use a West-East style...(our engines sit with the front at the passenger side, their drivetrains face the drivers side)...meaning that, when we choose Mitsubishi as our Japanese partner, we couldn't even easily share powertrains.
Dodge Challenger...Imported from Japan, with the new 2.6L Hemi! Ugh!
I prefer my Mopar 10 imported from Canada with 5.7L Hemi!
