1991 mitsubishi 3000gt vr-4 3.0l

Description

Car just turned 66,000 original miles, I bought it when it had right at 64,000 just a few months ago. For some reason, out of the blue, car decided to spin a bearing sitting idle at a stop light, which is making a rod knock. Local Nissan dealership hardly found any metal fragments in the oil, so it could possibly be a cheap fix instead of full engine rebuild or replacement.

Car has never been wrecked, I have the CarFax report from when I bought it from the dealership. Car is now just over 30 days outside the warranty the dealership offered.

I have not raced the car, nor driven it rough. New clutch has 100 miles left on the 500 mile break-in period.
Here is a list of the things replaced, the Nissan dealership here in Columbia can verify and I have receipts for most of the work.

Tires are still in really good shape with plenty of tread left. These cars are known to have the capacitors go bad on the ECU's. The ECU has been checked and all capacitors have been replaced (none were found leaking but had it done anyway). I also have an extra working ECU and extra MAF that will go with the car as these are getting hard to find anymore.
Everything on the car works, factory Aero, Active Exhaust, Active Suspension, speakers, lumbar adjustment on the driver's seat, illumination bulbs, power antenna. There are a couple of internal cosmetic things such as the driver's seat and defroster grills (I have replacement grills but have not installed them yet).
