So is anybody planning on purchasing any dealer accessories???
come on, it's coming down to that time when the cares are in and somebody must have something to say on this.

 

Im looking at them putting pedals on(silver) , and maybe the cluster gauage, and possibly the shift knob......

I have an extra $1000 to spend..

I think the pit pass is a pay now or pay latter type of deal, dosnt look like you get a lot for your money except paying in advance.

 

$112 for a ****ing shift knob !!! ?

I'd be worried about somone stealing it ... being made of gold and all

hehe .. maybe it shifts for you

 

That's more than the titanium knob i purchased for my M3 i've had. It looked exactly like stock except half titanium which was imported from germany. And that cost me under $100.

For that kind of price i'm going momo

 

So there is no factory cruise control??!!

My current car doesn't have it, but if I decide to actually drive it further than say an hour I might like something like that...

but no serious complaints

 

Don't buy any parts from the dealer. Try partznet.com They have discount Mitsu, Nissan, and Toyota parts.

E in LA

PS That's where I'm going to get those from when I get my car

 

Is the sports meter kit worth the $464? Or im I better off getting a aftermarket one?

 

Aftermarket.

 

Actually, I'm going to get the gages.. I think their a boltin with only electrical connections and no additional cutting or mods.. But don't hold me to that. I know the stock ECU has this information in the computer even though its not displayed on any gages.. which means the info is available to display on gages if they had ones that plugged into the harness.. Its possible that is why their so expensive.

Yeah, I think the gauges are plug and play. Rollo showed pics of an empty harness behind the cubby where the dealer gauges go. If that's the case then aftermarket with a harness will work the same, be cheaper, and look nicer.


I like the pedals, if they are direct REPLACEMENTS and not a metal pedal that attaches to the rubber OEM pedals. If that's the case then I might go with those. The shifting knob looks nice, but too pricey.

 

i need a short shift kit, will the EVO7's work?

 

basically everything aftermarket is better......the dealer just wants more money

 

jovani, where are you getting your Evo from?

 

I asked my dealer to add-on the Blue Al shift knob, thats all. I just don't like leather ones.

My dealer, Swope Mitsubishi in Radcliff, KY gave me a $200.00 credit at parts when I bought my EVO and I got the sport peddals and shift knob in blue. The gas pedal screws into the factory rubber pedal, but you remove the rubber brake and clutch pedals and drill 4 holes in the metal peddels andthey bolt on with screws and nuts. I would recommend putting some loc-tite on the screws to keep them from loosening after time. It took me about 20 min and they look great. Just be carefull because the holes you have to drill are very close to the edge of the pedals.

I was gonna have the sport meters installed by the dealer, but after reading teh below post, I know I can wire them better. I think I might go with some aftermarket gauges (boost/oil temp/oil pressure) and install them myself. (I put them in my 2000 Eclipse with no prob). I don't like the idea of putting a sender in teh oil drain plug though. Blitz has a oil fiter adapter plate then screws between the filter and housing. Looking into that and will let you know.
