Megan...

AU does get a different version, its RH drive, and doesn't get but a 2 year warranty. Also the interior is not as "nice", its still an econobox (without the econo part).

If its a gt25r it will be fine running 20psi. The gt28r uses the same turbine and a 60mm compressor wheel instead of 54mm. It would make more power and about the same amount of spool up (maybe 200rpms difference) and hold power to redline. WIth only a 6500rpm redline, your basically limited to a 25r,28r, and t3s60 since they all spool ~3k ish. Anything bigger is just a waste (gt2871r or t3t4 50trim) w/o atleast a 7-7.5k redline.

That's an inspiring project you got there. Im going with a sleeper setup yet, got the lancer De that's the cheapest version here in PR, BUT making it a evo inside, got evo MR gauges, center console, blacked out the interior pannels. with just a few things on the outside for the stock apeal exept for the huge 32x12x3 intercooler. right now I was just installing a 4G93 272 crower Camshaft and 97 mirage adjustable rocker arms since the stock lifter rocker arms would'nt reach the valve gap with this cam. next going turbo with a evo8 TD05HR turbo with evo 9 exhaust housing and clipped turbine wheel.

You broke the steering rack? Megan and Tein don't make replacement racks, they make replacement struts.

^^?? He was asking for peoples opinions of coilovers. The rack thing was just an unfortunate twist.

Ok that makes more sense. I would go Megan myself, Tein is nice but overrated IMO.

yeah i broke the rack....thats the part with little gear teeth on it kind of a straight bar and it connects both wheels right ...well i managed to locate one for 50 bux from a junker...brand new they run 200+ but i figure the junker should do justice..
I myself also thought tein was overrated, megan i was skeptical about though cuz i never heard of em and I really havent heard any feedback about em...im also looking for a front right fender...i dented mines when i was pushing the car to the side of my garage with a jack....also the trunk lol....the body panels are really weak lmao....
