Is that a...a...a...window winder I can see on the passenger door? I'd almost forgotten what they looked like :wink:

BTW, straight and tidy - good buy :beer

Thats a very tidy looking example you have there :D

Love the chrome window rollers! Only found on the JDM GSR-I Starion, which cancelled production in 1983, so a manual winder winder = DAMN RARE. And it looks fabulous.

65,000Kms?
God damn!

I will buy a LOT of parts off it. Really I should just buy the whole thing off you. But I already have 3 and I'd get murdered if I brought another chassis home.

Engine, gearbox, steering components, might make my GSR-X in to something worth driving :D

Really?
Yeah,I did think of using the window regulators and door trims in my 86.
I'd have to paint the panels black tho.
Just had a look on the 1/4 and it says GSRII??

Yeah the GSR-II thing confused me as well.
I have a 1983 GSR-II and it has air/con, electric windows, and electric mirrors, so I figured that was a GSR-I and I couldn't see it properly, eck I will never figure out these cars. Crazy Mitsubishis.

I've re-registered a car before. Its like a slighty harder WOF, cost me around $800 including a few new bits on a Galant I had. With only 65,000Kms on the clock, I'd get it re-registered but I am a Starion nutcase. TC06 + intercooler and it'll fly like an EX :)

If you decide not to strip it, but can't be bothered doing it yourself, we might be able to make a deal, so yell out if you have any ideas. I have spare doors and two road legal spare Starions :wtf: I'll also be up those ways at Christmas.

If you do part it, I'd really love the front steering setup :) My GSR-X has made it through 235,000Km and both the engine and steering are getting tired. 65,000Km and that car should still feel like new to drive.
