hmmm..... ugly as sin but yeah it probly is a blast to drive.
I never seen this type of car here in Canada. Wow is all I got to say!
For 200$ your gonna have a lot fun with that car!
I know a few guys local to me that own those cars. They are the only 4-cylinder that i have ever heard that does not remotely sound like a 4 banger.
"Project 69'"
1969 Chevrolet C/10, 1/2 ton, 2wd
-Boosted LS1?
-Richmond ROD 6-speed(will get sometime)
-Posi 12-bolt(built w/eaton posi unit and richmond 3.73 gears)
-Disc brake and 5 lug swap
+little extras
I've always wanted one from the last two production years. They look better and the rear end is a BEAST.
4G63 swap it, and get that 2.6 junk outta there
fortune cookie say: better a delay than a disaster
haha i wanna do that actually! just gotta find the money for it!
it sounds like a beast and the stock turbo in it whines like a SOB! lol
me and my buddy (in picture) are gunna paint it flat black and make it some what of a sleeper.
also to say the least, the rear end is basically the same as a corvette!!! its gunna be fun this spring

It doesnt matter what colour you paint it, its not like a civic, its a starion and car guys will know it was a rally car.

Dont flat black it leave it white I think flat black will just draw attention plain white will get ignored more.

Pfft, why bother then. @!#$in weak
my buddy had a conquest in high school and the turbo was bad on it so he put on a new one and that thing would scream!! wasn't a lot of cars around town that would touch it.he still has his sitting in his backyard in great condition with a blown motor though. His looks just like this.
Those 2.6s eat headgaskets, even that withstanding I have loved the Starions/Conquest TSi cars since I was youngster. The older they get the less they seem to be recognized. They always reminded me of a squared up Porsche 944.
Hawtness.
they remind me of a supra/porshe combo.
i wish we would have been able to pick up a widebody starion, but hey, its the same car just different bodies!

Theres a guy in the next town that has about 4 of them sitting in his driveway.
My buddy has one on bags and the bottle with a muliport conversion. I've learned about them from him and think they are cool. He posts by ELkidminoLTU on starquest forums.
They are a great way to go RWD but still enjoy your four-cylinder habit. I'd like to see one with an Ecotec engine conversion and a Solstice-Sky transmission!
