Good trade, why does it look like your exhaust sticks out so much? www.roadracemotorsports.com and RPW http://www.rpw.com.au/shop/ make parts for the RA no where near the aftermarket of a civic, sorry.

im gonna do a real photo shoot as soon as i get my camera back, ill put those up in the S&S thread

yes it came with the wheels and exhaust, the previous owner traded it in for an Evo

and im already very impressed at how much better it is than the Civic in every way, the civic felt like a cheap toy and this thing is much more "grown up" feeling

fan for life now

I feeel u man! Ive been a Toyota owner for the past 4 years, and a Nissan owner prior to that, and never thought I'd be owning a Mitsubishi, but when the money was ready to be spent, the Mitsu won hands down in the test drives against its competition.

fan here too! !

that a boy!

btw: your ra IS S-I-C-K

lovin everything about it and the wheels on it especially!

if you don't mind me asking, since the wheels came with the RA.. how much did yo pay?


as to your question that you asked about where to find performance parts for RA's and I see someone answered and into their answer.. ROAD RACE MOTORSPORTS! RRM IS OUR GOD FOR OUR RA'S that makes damn, good, sexy lookin stuff for our RA's

take a good look under the hood, its possible that the previous owner might of done more to the car than you can see by just a quick glance.
