taken everything from my 08 lancer and threw it on my evo, which included

bride seat
takata harness
prodrive wheels with toyo t1rs, rays lug nuts
seibon front lip
seibon cf hood
cf trunk
personal steering wheel
rexpeed canards
Blitz radiator cap
HKS Limited Edition oil cap
Sprint Booster
cusco strut bar
T1R Shift Boot

i remember taking my bbs wheels off rite when i got home from the dealership, good times
all of these were sitting in my garage so i put them on the 1st week i got the car

and on order i had
voltex 1700mm GT wing
Arc airbox
Tanabe GF springs
Autopower roll bar

 

1st thing for me was swift springs and enkei pf01 18x9.5 wheels both in the same day.

 

Blizzak ws-60s to survive the day after christmas blizzard up here in the northeast (brilliant tires by the way)

Next mod was big **** holes in my front bumper to mount the mitsu license plate frame. Scary but happy I did it.

 

Rims, ARC intercooler,AMS o2 down pipe,test pipe tanabe exhaust..And much more...

 

The first things I did were get it tinted and cf wrap the interior trim pieces cuz I couldn't stand the plastics. My car's 2 weeks old now n I've installed HIDs, debadged the trunk, installed HKS tt, ARC shift knob, ordered the Do-Luck duckbill and the BLITZ carbon intake's going in on Monday.

 

Shift knob. Because whoever thought an aluminum shift knob in the heat or the cold was a good idea, needs a kick in his knobs.

 

Week 1 - debadge, ventureshield (full front), tint, RA mudflaps

 

partial debadge, professional detail, aux input cable.....crazy mods I know...haha

 

Now, I'm worried it may be too low.

 

window visors, all weather mats, Snow tires

 

how low? and what kit?

 

Eibach Pro Kit, it lists itself at -1.6" / -1.0", although the data on the site here lists it as -1.2" / -1.0". By eyeball, I'd say it's got that extra 0.4" as listed by the manufacturer.

At first I thought that about half that drop would have been fine. Now, I think it's peachy. We'll see how I feel as I scrape the lip and/or catch road debris I might have driven over. meh.

As far as performance... since the springs are semi-progressive, I don't really notice a difference driving at 8/10s or below on the street. Actually, if I was to whine about any of the Evo X's suspension or handling deficiencies, they would begin and end on its excessive weight. That said, the lower you are into the performance envelope, the less odious it is.

 

Eibach ProKit and Rota PF45's. Later that day, Invidia Q300 CBE, 3M clear bra and window tinting.

 

first thing would be invida q300 exhaust
