Answer:
I had a 99 RS (hence the SN "Telena n her 420A" 420A is the engine code for the non-turbo rs) Mitsubishi's are actually good cars... I don't know about the automatic though... Don't try and race it because you'll just f*** it up. As for it being a GS and not an RS, GS-T or GSX, you can add whatever aftermarket turbo you want onto it. The Eclipse is known to have leaks from the head gasket. They're usually on the front driver side... you'll probably see the oil leaking down the block on that side. They still have strong engines non the less. Replacing the head gasket isn't that hard to do. Just about any DSM website will be able to help you out and give you some advice. If you're a myspace member there's a ton of groups for DSMs. Two good ones are Sick DSM and Diamond Star Motors. Another thing with the Eclipses... if you have disk brakes in the front and drum brakes in the back, you will need to upgrade to disk all around... the drums are known to warp badly on those. I don't think you have to worry about that with a GS though. Good luck on deciding!!!

I would recommend selling it and purchasing a bicycle. You just don't appear to be intelligent enough to drive a car.

What kind of noise? Also, what do you mean by is it good? They nice looking cars IMO and they can be reliable if taken care of. Don't expect to make a lot of power from the 420A engine though.

Sell it. Save some money and buy something with less milage. Eventually you'll have to change plenty of things in that car with that much milage. Good luck
