I think my car had that problem before I bought it. There's a sticker under my hood telling me that the car had been reflashed by Mits, I guess to solve that problem. If I'm wrong....please someone correct me.

good luck, there are a million threads on this. My 03 had this and it is really, really, really annoying. Pick up a C Reader off rom ebay and plug it into your OBII port-this helps a lot. Go to VISHNU.com and he sells them there as well.
There is a recall from Mitsu on this, I believe. If your car is under warranty or stock, talk to them.
Good luck it is a horrible problem. It made me trade my 8 for a 9.

You need to diagnose why youre getting a random misfire. There isn't one single solution for any given cel code. Try to find a friend or a friend of a friend with a solus and vantage.

i believe the mitsu had a recall on this. they reflashed the ecus.
if you go to aktivematrix's download section, you can find a rom that the dealer flashed in a customer's car to fix the p0300 error, then with ecuflash and a tactrix cable, you can reflash your ecu yourself to fix it.
don't forget to copy your fuel/timing/boost maps if your ecu has already been reflashed.

If its any help I took my evo to the stealership to get reflashed. The reflash erases your flash if you have one. I simply took my car to ams afterwards and got reflashed. No problems since. GOOD luck.
