gonna stick with my VRX and see what i can do with it. Was looking at trying to do a JDM style but i have given up on that since i have the metalic red and im going for a high tech tuner style instead. So Some enkei RPF1's in the SBC finish will go on eventually. Still praying that some decent coilovers are released (megan's dont count ) ... if not then ill just get some custom adjustable shock inserts and lowering springs. Engine wise i'd like to stay N/A and see what i can do but i may go turbo down the track if i cant get the power im after. Im also looking at some serious weight reductions. Want to remove the rear seats and possibly all the interior from the front seats backwards and then if i can manage to get permits ( CF panels arent legal here ) then ill get CF hood and boot, otherwise i'll just pick up the evo/ralli-art aluminium parts. If i can get rid of a couple hundred kg's i'll be happy. Where i go from there who knows :P

Once i finish university and get a second car i will further strip it etc and it will become full race/show car mostly for circuit work so huge power isnt all that important to have fun on the twisty bits so i may get enough power from a good N/A tune especially with full weight reductions... so bye bye radio :P

Would be nice to make 200hp atw to get that magic 100hp per litre mark but 180 atw would probably be fine assuming i can dump a good amount of weight. Should be able to get rid of 200kg's easy enough, but i'd like to aim for 300kg's. Pretty ambitious weight reductions considering i still want to keep some luxuries like the power windows and aircon but you gotta have something to aim for i suppose.

I couldn't see alot of aftermarket parts for us in the future so I got a Ralliart. I only miss the smooth driving of my Lancer es compared to the abrupt shifting of the Ralliart. It's like the only time you can be happy with ralliart is by speeding IMO. thats all i got.

Given the minimal and sometimes negative gains provided by our slim selection of boltons, as well as their high price due to our small market, I will not be wasting my money on that crap.

Instead I will accept that my car will never actually amount to anything without a turbo, and still suck even with one, and invest my money into making it look/sound cool until I can buy a car that doesn't suck.

Haha you guys are no fun, I love my Lancer. Cheap insurance, great gas mileage, and sure as hell looks better than any other comparative sedan.

I've got quite a bit of work done to mine, it's been in the shop the past month and I've been driving my brothers cobalt...can't wait to get it back
