'04 Lancer vehicle code

My old '90 Nissan 240SX had the vehicle code S13. The best Skyline was a R34. Initial D's Trueno was an AE86. Anyway, my question is, what is the Lancer's number? Specifically the '04 ES.

Thanks. Everytime I tried to Google it all I came up with was 4G94. I Googled CS6A and found something. Says 02+ CS6A and 04+ CS7A. I already knew the Evo 8 was a CT9A ... T I guess for turbo. But why CT9 instead of CT8 for Evo 8?

EDITED

PS - the Skyline was BNR34. The R34 alone was a trim level, like ES.

I know. Just like my old 240SX (called a 180SX in Japan) was a RPS13, but commonly shortened to just S13.

Because they didn't do it the way you're thinking.

1992-1995 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 1/2/3 - CD(E)9A
1996-1997 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 4 - CN9A
1998-2000 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 5/6 - CP9A
2001- Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 7/8 - CT9A

I also heard in Japan they don't call it an "ES" but an MX-E. I tried finding an MX-E emblem to replace the ES badge, but instead bought a MMC badge. I also bought the Lancer badge from the 96-00 JDM Lancer's. At least so I was told.

Sounds good.

I would love to find a GSR badge - that should confuse people pretty well!

I don't suppose JDM Cedia's had an Enkie Rallye Edition, eh?

Thanks. It was the first and only of it's kind I've seen for sale on eBay. I like it more than the current Lancer emblem. I just hope it fits. The seller told me it's 5 1/2 inches which I measured on my trunk where the current Lancer emblem is. Unfortunately this guy is a slow sender and I still haven't received it. If it doesn't fit in place of the current emblem I may put it under the Mitsu diamond. I'm not sure.
