Die Hard Mitsubishi Driver
Sup guys.
Let me start off by saying I have been a Mitsubishi owner since high school. My parents have Hondas and Toyotas and they are just so bland and boring. The styling of Mitsubishi is sharp and the Lancers look like fighter jets that the average person can drive. My first car was a POS 97' Galant which initially started as a rental car in Flordia. I didn't do to much to it as I am not a huge car person and I am slowly learning the ropes. I am mostly into electronics so I am looking to learn how to wire my own stuff.
After that car died I purchased this.
2003 Lancer OZ Rally. This was the closest I could get to an EVO when I graduated college. Evo has always been my dream but I didn't realize how fun the Lancer was till I started driving was. It is so much fun to drive. The EVO VIII is my favorite version because it's nice and smooth and not being to big of a sedan. Sadly after almost 7 years the timing belt blew on it and took my water pump with it. It also bent my cylanders so the engine was pretty shot.
At this point I am a poor college graduate and I needed another car to last me another 10 years. So now I have just recieved this.....
2009 Lancer RalliArt GTS. Machine is lowered in Electric Blue, and is a beast. I am over joyed. This is probably the closest I will get to an Evo in a long long time. Got a pretty decent deal on the machine as well.
Current Projects:
Install Clarion 1300 Watt AMP
Install Dual 10" Subwoofers
Install Replacement door speakers and tweeters
Install Replacement Head Unit
Install Replacement incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs.
Little about me.
I am a computer nerd. I am all about tech. I am looking to learn more about how to do things in my car on my own. Any help is appreciated. I will have a lot of questions and I work better by doing. I bough the GTS because I love driving. Not to get from point A to point B but because I love to drive from Point A to Point B.
This is my everyday car and I am looking to get better gas mileage out of the thing . I get about 23 city, 30 highway in the machine (BTW I drive it using the manual tranny option). I have the automatic option in case my wife's car dies and she can't drive a stick. Any other suggestions are helpful.
I am a car newbie so begin the flaming.
