More pics of my mirage

*PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE keep in mind these are 35mm I get sick of all the DSLR fools saying that quality is poor :P

Anyway, I was very disappointed in how these shots turned out, whitebalance is terrible is some, and with the way the lighting is some shots were, I was tricked into over exposing in some when I shouldn't have. Lighting was tricky, but I did what I could in Adobe...

In case anybody is wondering, the camera is a Canon AT-1 SLR 1.8F/50mm lens. I'll be taking more pics next weekend when my EVO 5 tailights get here.

My favorite picture of all, too bad quality is bad due to film












My Cusco tie bar came in this weekend. now I have a wonderful 3 inchs of ground clearance, instead of craling under the car, this'll do....this picture is way over exposed...damn it


over exposed

Sick Mirage man, I used to own one. Would be a great car if it had more power and 4wheel disc brakes.

Keep at it, there a lot of potential..

more power, I know.....no turbo isn't finished yet. I'm jobless as of now, but I'm out of school in December. Hope to finish buying parts throughout winter and getting the work finished in spring followed by Cusco coil-overs, EVO V trunk lid and JDM headlights.

4 wheels disc brakes would be nice though...

No engine bay pics because there's nothing to show but a bone stock 4g93. Kinda sad, but I have a whole slew of turbo parts sitting beside my TV But right no I'm happy with it because belive it or not, these mirage have a little EVO heritage in them...they handle AWESOME. Just springs, strut bars and tie bars. front tie bar is Cusco. I plan to replace the front and rear strut bar ith Cusco ones later.

yeah, I didn't do any shots of the rear because I have EVO V tails on the way. I thought I'd have them by this weekend, so I was depressed and ignored the rear.

The rims are Konig Villans painted bronze. I plan on either getting BBS, Advan or something. These rims look good for now though.

I'm sorry, but any picture that isn't taken with a $5,000 digital SLR camera just isn't worth taking my time to look at.



Just playin', that's a gorgeous Mirage

Yeah, I always thought of that. Look like an RC car.

But besides that, I like how it set up (just need a pass. seat to match).
