Wheels are 17x9 +22 and on spacers as well. Fenders were cut to make the flares fit and the car is lowered on BC Racing coilovers. I'm the 2nd owner, original owner did everything to it so I'm not sure how much its lowered.

 

Do you know how big the spacers are? but thanks for all the info bro, I really appreciate it

 

iTz Curt, I knew that was K3lv's ralliart lol. Did he sell the VS-XX before he sold you the car?

 

I just had my first car which is a 2004 Lancer Ralliart about a month ago, and based on everybody's picture, looks like I have an unlimited opportunity to improve my car engine-wise and body kit wise. Anybody here from Kansas?

 

Went to race track over the weekend to watch the Pirelli World Challenge. One of the side races included the Road Race Motorsports Fiat Abarth. I went over to chat with the crew after the race and they were kinda jerks and didn't want to talk.

Maybe this was due to them finishing dead last and not even being competitive. Maybe they were the only one running in their class but they were noticeably the slowest car on the track.

 

Wrong thread. Meant to post that in the general discussion.

 

lol

 

Bought a 2005 RA for a really good price. It had around 101,500 kms on it when I purchased it.
Only bad part is one of the tail lights is slightly cracked but it's hard to notice, and the front lip is missing
Anyway I'm from Alberta, Canada and I paid $3,500.00 for it!
Currently no mods, but I would really like to replace the front grille to the mesh I've seen a lot of you have here.
As well, I'd love to replace my tail lights as I'm not a big fan of the chrome on them. Here she is!

 

Congratulations, and you've an amazing deal there so get ready to spend the rest $ on fabulous mods - take lots of pics for us.

 

The VS-XXs were for sale along with the car but I didn't buy them. I was only working part time when I bought the car and bought the car with all season tires instead of the summer tires mounted on the VS-XXs.

 

Purchased 2004 Lancer Ralliart 6 months ago
95% stock
RRM Race header and cat delete pipe
RRM Cold Air Intake
Car Now has 61,000 miles on it now Had 54,000 when i bought it.
Oh yea and I bought it for $300 with the race header and cold air intake

Now trying to decide what to do to it. Would like to get more power but not looking to spend 5K on a turbo kit just yet.. Any suggestions.

 

Sounds like your looking at RRMs turbo kit. You can piece a kit together for much less than that. Or you can spend as much money in bolt ons as you would a DIY turbo kit and only get a fraction of the power.

But if power isnt everything and you want a fun car to drive. Start upgrading the suspension. it really brings the car the life.

you got one hell of a deal! welcome to the group!

 

Yea I did. It was having issues and the previous owner was just fed up with trying to fix it. Turned out to be a throttle body and MASS air flow senser that was it. As far as the turbo is concerned Is there a thread on here that explains all that. I have never done a turbo mod so I am very new to that whole scene. Next mod I plan on doing is some TIEN lowering springs and going from there. Any and all sugestions are greatly welcomed.

 

Neither had I and this was one of the first things that someone turned me on to:



Be patient, ask LOT of questions, but most of all, have fun!

 

I had a budget of $4000 and ended up spending $5500. Cranswick spent under $2000 I believe, and others have spent up to 10,000 on their build. This is quite a large spread to work with.
