Ralliart Parts?

Does anybody know, or have an idea, what all parts Ralliart will be selling in the U.S.? I've checked the Mitsu website, and other Ralliart websites, and didn't find much. Thanks.

We were told by an official Ralliart Rep. at a local event a few months ago that Ralliart products WILL be coming, but he couldn't give us any additional info at that time.

Just keep your eyes peeled!

According to MMNA they are seeking U.S. speed shops that have in-house R&D facilities to contact them to possibly become a vendor to MMNA for U.S. Ralliart Products. There was no time line and they did not indicate what specifically they were looking for. They do want U.S. vendors to make parts for the U.S. market. I do know that there will be next year a Ralliart Galant, Eclipse and Evo. Specs?, or dates?, don't ask they didn't say.

My local Mitsu guy told me the parts should be arriving between December and January but they still havent received a list of the parts, they are very anxious to receive the parts because he owns an EVO!

Just wait a few months and they should be here. No much info now.

So, now we will get to see if they are ridiculously priced because of Mitsubishi, importers rapping us, or both. I can't wait.

I have a feeling I won't want Ralliart parts quite as badly once they are readily available in the US. It's that old want what you can't have thing but, we'll see.

The reason I'm so anxious is my local dealer agreed to sponsor me with RA parts.

The parts will be made in the U.S. for U.S. cars is what MMNA is saying. Doesn't look like you have to worry about them RAPING you.

We do carry most of the Ralliart parts. Is there anything you need that I can get for you now?

Forgive me for not spell checking. I didn't realize this was the scholastic spelling bee forum. I thought it was a car forum. Sorry.
