svx vs conquest....
 
so for awhile now ive been wondering how a 5sp svx vs a conquest would end? i ask this question cause that is the car i wanted for my first car but ended up with the svx and now my younger brother got the conquest and a race sounds like fun....at the strip of course.

this race hasent happend yet do to the fact that my 94 L tranny is gone...again:rolleyes:lol and my recently acquired 92 Lsi is in the shop for a 5sp swap:cool:...and my brothers conquest has a lil tlc needed

but i was curious if anyone has any ideas on a winner? for those who dont know, the chysler conquest (mitibishi starion) is a turboed 4 banger 5sp (most of them anyways) rwd coupe that makes 198hp and have become a good car to tune and drift....look them up!

Christmas tree drops, Mitsubishi engine grenades, Subaru transaxle gives up, race is measured in how many feet they traveled.

If you knew how to use google you would click on the images tab.

Better yet try: conquest car in the images section. - Gee, do you see any now??

Maybe you should google: 'how do i use google" first.

No, no, no.

I will NOT extraploate the word car into the images search!

That requires me to think for myself, and this country is no longer built for self thinkers, therefore I must go with the flock or herd. Your choice, since I cannot be expected to think/care for myself!

I did do an image search on the word "Conquest"... lots of history in there... a car or two, but not sure a Chrysler is what you were looking for.:lol:

Since the original poster did not specify, i'm not sure either. :lol::lol:

What do you say VICSVX - did you find what you were looking for?

.

The Chrysler Conquest TSi (Turbo Sport intercooled) was nothing more than a rebadged three-door Mitsubishi Starion hatchback. The TSi existed briefly when Mitsubishi upgraded the Starion as the ESI-r.

The Starion was produced from 1982 to 1990. The Conquest first appeared in the United States under the Dodge and Plymouth nameplates from 1984 to 1986 and as a Chrysler from 1987 to 1989.

The Starion/Conquest was another car that I really liked back then. I think it was that aggressive flairing of the fenders and the sharp angles that I liked so much. I still like them to this day. I think a recently saw one in a segment of Topgear in which they raced it against a few other beat up old cars.

Depends on the conquest, but it might just "run off and hide" from the SVX:(

The conquest was my first car. I had a flat body, non intercooled turbo version. It was fast compared to many friends cars in 1997. If your brother has a TSI in good condition, I think it will be a tight race towards the end. The SVX is faster than my non intercooled version as far as I remember.

I have been no help to your question, I await the outcome.
I miss my conquest, I got it because I couldnt afford a SVX!

Re: svx vs conquest....
 
K Dub, thats not my bros conquest...i wouldnt think of goin against him if it was lol:tard:

but i hope to get my SVX out the shop soon..just waitin a last few parts and then it will be on! i hope to get it on camera to post on the forum:)

my dad had a 89 and he said it was fast stock...

Nevin 09-21-2010 08:32 PM

Re: svx vs conquest....
 
I would think the outcome of the race would come down to how good of a driver is in the conquest.

I do love those cars though, and would love to have one of my own.

I take it that there is no love for the Starion.

VICSVX 09-21-2010 09:08 PM

Re: svx vs conquest....

Just bustin' your chops in the spirit of the thread.;)

I've got plenty love for the Starquest, but I'm a sucker for '70s-'90s Japanese cars. I showed that video to a coworker who's only response was "It's ugly". I wanted to slug him.:bash:

I would say that I have equal love for the starion, but since it wasn't named by name by the poster, that's just how I answered the question. :)
