EPIC!!!!

Thats what I want my RA to look like. Ive been debating on ordering those rear window vents for a long time now. That makes me so jealous...

I wonder if they are a member here?

Did you see how much the rolled the rear fenders?

I had an awesome realization the other day.
Everyone knows the 1G and 2Gs had the motor sitting on the driver side of the engine bay right? Well I realized that the base model 2Gs that came with the Chrysler 420a motor had them oriented the other way. The same way as our cars and the evos with the same mounting points as well! How awesome would it be to find an old cheap 420a 2G and swap it with a turbo'd 4g69. Maybe even throw in an Evo tranny, and 2g AWD rear end. Ugh... I think it'd be sick... You could always just guy a GSX or TSi AWD. But having a one off would be much much cooler in my book!

Anyone else who is experiencing winter weather having any problems with the driver side key hole freezing up? Every morning I go out and its apparently frozen on the inside. The passenger side never does this though... :/ I guess I should start looking for my key fob... lol

I have a little lock de-icer, it's a little compressed gas can, about the size of a 3.5" 12ga shotgun shell, with a nozzle like a butane refiller. you just ram that in there and it frees it up...haven't had to use it on my lancers, but my old ranger locks would freeze up sometimes, and rangers didn't have power locks in the 80's

That is awesome! Ive never seen anything like that. I'll hunt down my fob, for some reason Im thinking the battery went dead in it. Im afraid one day I'll go outside and both locks will be froze up.

So I am setting up my netbook to be my tuning/car computer cause I will be getting a Tactrix cable here soon. Im planning to go ahead and install Mitsubishi ASA, TeamViewer, and a few things.

I was just wondering what programs you guys who have the reflash use the most when tuning and looking at things? For the eclipse and ECUflash they say to have a hex editor, excel, and notepad++.

Awesome. Thank ya sir!

Anyone else seen this on youtube?

2015 Mitsubishi Eclipse R Concept

Starting to think mitsu should chill out on the electric motors and start listening to their fanbase... Lol we need more AWD and turbos!!! Turbos can be fuel economic if need be, just look at fords eco-boost engines...

Put the straw on a WD-40 can and spray inside the key hole liberally. (10 seconds) This is for prevention, not fixing once frozen.
