When Cody Nickerson sent in the link to this eBay listing, he wrote “Here’s one for McTaggart.” Well since Mc is in Scotland vacationing, I’m going to write about this one myself. The Mitsubishi Starion, also badged the Chrysler, Dodge, or Plymouth Conquest TSI, was one bad little sports car in...

I swear there was another on in a magazine years ago but I can't find it now.
Edit - nope, car I was thinking of was a 1990 Daytona:

Done smallblocks, but not a G3.
Nice thing about Mitsu built cars (Colts, Arrows, "Challengers" and the D50 truck included) of that era is that the automatic versions used a Chrysler-sourced 904 tranny- so crossmember, shift linkage, driveshaft and rear can all stay in place; even the speedo is an easy hookup if you stay with a 904.

Will you settle for a Hellcat in a Dodge Rampage?

There is a huge thread (or 2?) on TurboDodge.com of a guy that converted 2 Daytona's to RWD and G3 swapped them. Even tried to get Reilly Motorsports and US CarTool to build parts off his prototypes so others could do something similar. All for not.
Plus @BadAss71 had some pictures in a post of a similar conversion on a '91 Daytona using an LX rear suspension. But that was 3 years ago and nothing since.
But that isn't a Conquest. Sounds like one of those would be much easier since you don't have to do a RWD conversion at the same time.
Kiwis Customs and Classics on YouTube had started doing one, but I don't know about the current status of the project.

Not my car but this is a dodge shadow with 6.1, I’m pretty sure he is a member here.
