Silver Rocks!!!

Mines been protected by Mitsubishi's Diamond Guard and I gotta say that the stuff is amazing...hardly a mark on it after 12 months. If there is any marks I can usually just rub it off with my finger nail.

What the Ram rod stuff cost?

Fast and Furious

FYI:
The green car at the start is a Mitsubishi Eclipse.
The orange car is a Toyota Supra.

Personally, I think that green is a bit yucky. I have a deep metalic green lancer, but that bright lime green looks ill.

We will be getting the lancer that the us ppl have had for a while.

We will get a new bumper and grill.

Also look up drive.com.au They have a thing on our new lancer under new cars.

I am saving up my pennies!!!!

i am in the same boat as you are in....one of the best sites i have found is - www.carmate.com.au and from there check out the body kits, etc. they were really helpful for me, and i know they actually deliver goods ( mail order wise), but if you are in the sydney area even better.

any one know of any good QLD performance shops around?

I can help with interior mods, go to http://www.emtechautomotive.com.au/c...er/lancer.html
All these products are available through all Mitsubishi yards. Should be what you want. I can also get many other interior and exterior parts for your Lancer.

You will probably get bored with it soon. I had mine for about 6 months before i started getting too used to it, so I changed the factory airbox to a K&N pod filter, at the time I was impressed with the induction sound but now I am getting bored with the car again, so I am thinking about changing the exhaust to RPW 4-1 extractors with a 2.25 pipe through to the back.

yeah probably...ive only had it a few months so the "i'm bored with my car" bug hasnt hit yet.
but there is also the fact that i ride in a lot of my friends cars that have loud exhausts, intakes, turbos etc, and sometime i think how they can live with such a noisy car. personally i like the quietness of a stock car sometimes....... or maybe i am getting old?

i dunno i just get in moods like sometims i wanna race and sometimes i like it nice and quiet.
anyways im happy with my car. My aim is to do up the interior before any performace mods. i am planning to get a tv/dvd player soon hopefully... so i can play gt3 in the maccas carpark hehe.
