1997 Mitsubishi Mirage Cyborg ZR review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great bang for the bucks!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Randomly my dash lights stopped working after my power steering belt snapped doing 110kmh around a sweeper bend... exciting stuff though...
General comments?
This car, for how inexpensive it is, is unbelievably quick.
Timed the car doing a 7.1 second 0-100kmh run (0-62mph) with only basic modifications!
Great interior, MOMO steering wheel, Recaro racing seats, short shift gearbox, white dials, good speakers.
I4 and V6 slayer; haven't really raced a turbo yet, so looking forward to that!
