The Stealth is made by Mitsubishi. It's a 3000GT/GTO.

Dodge stealth TT is the same as a Mitsubishi 3000GT. IT is just cheaper and will not weigh as much due to the folding roof on the VR-4. The Stealth is a great car with a few mod but the 240 is better with a whole new engine.
My decision was due to the fact that too many newbie drivers are getting a 240 while no one has a pimped stealth. A built RB25 definatly will beat a stealth but i will not have to go through all the trouble of getting a SR, RB or CA delivered to Canada. The cost would be in the thousands for shipping and tax. Some day i will gat a 240 to make into a track **** but for now i'm goin with the stealth.

Couldn't you just drive your car to the US and have the motor swapped down here? Then drive back with the new motor in the car.

I know you've already decided on the Stealth, but I would think the drive -> install -> drive home route probably makes sense if shipping and taxes kill you that much in CA.

And very few 3000GT's got the folding hard top. Most got a fixed roof just like the Stealth. But when you start getting close to SUV weights, does a few pounds really matter?
