dude lol Great vid!! where can I get power steering pump there use to be a guy that would rebuild them on quest site, do you know anyone like that?? Stay cool, MA
The engine is from a Ford Mustang GT. It is a 302 with some mods. The transmission is a Ford T-5 5 speed. The car still has the factory independent rear.
Nice work! The car is beautiful and the engine sounds great! I would have went for a Mopar small block, but it's your car, so you get to pick. Well done!
Dude that is sweet!!! Im working on mine go check it out.....I threw that 4 cyl out too...hey can you give me and pointers for cooling and also where did you get the strut tower braces?
@RosieKR I have to agree. I have NEVER seen any wheels look better than the stockers on a StarQuest... the aftermarkets just don't fit the body and style of the car.
WOW man that paint is awsome whats the color? and i dont know what these dudes are talking about, the rims look sick on that car.! and no (im not mexican everyone lol) hey seriously tho i just primed my conquest im looking to paint it same color as yours .. what color is it?
i was told the color is sandle wood.i think its a factory chrysler color.i like the wheels too.they're not chrome,i just keep them polished.ive had many compliments on them
The first car i ever had was an 89 conquest back in 97/98, with the 2.6 turbo of course. I loved it and would love to find another one someday!!! I also love what you did with yours, AWESOME!!!
i bought this car about a yr ago.its an awesome car and drives like new.i posted a video responce with it and my other quest.its the only video i have of it right now.
Thats the best thing that could have happened to that car. Why do guys hate to see swaps into these cars? Like they were icons or something? I remember when they came out and how they were like $18-19k even way back in '87-89. Overpriced as hell. In the Chicago street scene they lost every race they ever ran from what I remember. I think there was one fast Black one until it blew up. They had shitty motors. Now you find them sitting in driveways for $500 with nice bodies and never running.
I had an 88 and the head cracked without me ever overheating it, parts where very expensive and the head was weak, I later found out that the mitsu mighty max head would work with this block and is alot stronger.
the car was iconic, it was one of the most advanced cars on the road. It has a drag coefficient of 32, The A/C system took climate readings at both the ceiling and floor and compensated according to the temperature. It even had a photosensor to compensate for sunlight heat. This car was getting beat in a line cuss everyone had LX5.0's, IROCs or GTA's. In the hills of Cali the TSI was kicking those 3's ass due to its suspension and brakes
too bad its a mitsubishi and not a chrysler, chrysler just slapped their logo on their, everything in that car is made by mitsubishi, so a 302 has as much right in there as a 340, but the 340 is a hunk of shit anyway.
Hey Boss!! Bad ass. How hard was it to do? I got a 1989 TSI 77,071 original miles. Fast but not fast enough for me. Had a 1991 Mustang LX love the 302 email me really curious about doing that. Thanks Joey
