I forgot to mention that when I had my car at the las cruses dealership that I used Pentosin FFL-2 which Mitsu just tested in my car and it passed the test. Just wanted to inform all :-) |

I think that you should do whatever makes you happiest, don't worry about what people on the internet say because it's your car and your money, so you should do what means the most to you.
From a performance standpoint, stretching a tire too far actually loses the purpose of running wide wheels, which is to be able to run wider tires and increase contact area/traction; but if you like the way it looks and don't plan on taking the car to the track on a regular basis, then go for it. |
GREAT NEWS!!!
Well my insurance has decided to cover my transmission! So I'm trying to see what is the best plan of attack is and what the insurance will allow me to do when I get it fixed! I'm waiting on the adjuster now to get back with me so I can get this rolling! If it goes the way I would want it that means 600 hp clutch upgrade and much more. This will mean FP BB Red and ETS tubular manifold will also be going in :-) with future plans of a engine rebuilt right here at home. For those who have transmission issues like I have then you should call your insurance and explain to the all the information. I had to give my insurance proof of purchase, all maintenance done by me, they called the 2 dealers I went to, and mitsubishi HQ. Once they did all this then they made the decision to cover the issue. I did nothing special but call them and explain to them my situation and they did their own investigation into it. |

Personally, I'd put a perfectly stock one in there, use Dia-Queen fluid... and maximise the chance of hassle-free motoring! But that's just me - I'm funny that way. :D Rich |

4th Gear Log!
I did one when the car was cold and one when it warmed up (30 mins later) and they look about the same. As you can see it looks amazing compaired to when I first started to have this issue. I do thank you Rich and all those that have helped me through all of this. {thumbup} |
Hopefully not when the engine itself was cold... 7000rpm and all that... :p
That looks completely normal - no lumps and bumps at all. Is that your current trans, still? Before any replacement? If so, that's a fantastic recovery. Rich |

Update!
I installed the ETS HFC and it fits perfectly. I will take pictures later this week. I ordered the following from MAP Performance. 8K front and rear Swift springs for my BC Coilovers. DeatschWerks DW300 320lph in-tank Fuel Pump w/ Install Kit. AEM Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator kit. I spoke to Kozmic Motorsports (used to be SSP Texas) about a base tune and once I'm ready to install I just have to send the payment and they will send me a base tune and I will e-tune with them. Now all I need is a small battery kit and time for I can install the Evo X turbo. I'm hoping to install the 5" ETS Black FMIC next week. Just waiting on the adjuster and the insurance to update me to see what direction I will take with my transmission claim :-) If it goes my way I'm planning the following then: SSP full transmission kit, MAP EF4 or MAP EF3 upgrade turbo service, ETS Exhaust Manifold, ETS Evolution X Recirculated O2 Eliminator Downpipe, and my tires and rims :-) If not then I will just be doing Evo X turbo and the tires and times soon. |

Borla and 5" ETS FMIC Update!
So I called Borla and they told me I need a Venturi for it. They sent it to me for free to my house. i still went ahead and ordered a Vibrant 1794 Bottle Style Resonator which is the only one that will properly fit. I should have it installed either thursday or friday. See attached picture of the Venturi. On Friday night I started installing the 5" FMIC and all of the intercooler pipping. That part of the installation was not to bad. The hard part was figuring how to properly attach the JDM crash bar. I used Steel 1" spacers with M8x1.25x50 bolts and a bunch of washers. My son help make sure that all the T-Bolt Clamps were nice and tight! |
Looks great man! Love the build.
|
so you have the vented crash beam, do you have vents for the bumper?

In all honesty he tightened most of the t-bolt clamps as us saw in the picture and I went behind him and finished it. Sometimes he hands me parts and tools (usual takes a while before I get the one I want, lol, but it's all good) ! Father and son time together is what counts the most. {thumbup}

Borla Update!
Venturi and the Resonator have been installed. What a difference! When I cruise you can't notice it. When I give it gas the beast sound of the Borla comes out! I'm loving it! {thumbup}{thumbup}{thumbup} |
Innovative LC-1 Update!
Man, I had many issues with it and it finally died on me. Most issues was trying to get it to work. Only worked for a while. Finally ripped it out of my car. I was able to connect to it using the laptop and kept getting error code 2 even with a new wideband installed and everything. It was just fustrating. After doing much research I hear that the best one to get to use with EvoScan is Zeitronix Zt-2. I also heard that the AEM Uego is really good but for my use I think the Zeitronix Zt-2 will be better. So I'm planning to get the Zeitronix Zt-2 and ZR-2 Wideband / Boost / EGT Gauge Package. As always I will keep you guys updated. :D |

I'm only doing the catback with everything else stock, so I know it won't be as loud as yours was, but if I do need the Venturi or resonator, how/where are they installed? Thanks! |

Transmission Update
Sorry for the long delay! Been crazy busy and I just got my car back. So here is what happened.
My insurance covered my transmission and I decided to go with upgraded clutches (SSP 500). Now no more clutch slipping :D |
Mod Updates!
1 Attachment(s)
I had Kozmic install my Evo X turbo, AMS DP, Bomba Fuel Rail, Evo X spark plugs, ETS Air Intake, AMS Small battery kit, FID Front motor mount, 1100 CC FIC injectors, Evo X Exhaust Manifold, Grimmport EBC, MAP Evo X Fuel Pump Install Kit w/ DW300, and MAP AFPR Hose Kit w/ Turbosmart FPR. They did this at the same time they did the clutch upgrade. I'm not sure if i'm forgetting anything but I believe everything is listed.
Car is making amazing power. I'm really happy!!! I try to run on E85 when I can (only one gas station here has it and it's out of my way :mad:) but I can easily switch to 91 and remap the vehicle by putting it on the on position and holding down the gas pedal. If cruise control is blinking im on E85. 91 is the highest octane we have here in El Paso. I attached of my before mod and after mod Dyno! |
Springs Update!
I changed the springs fof my BC Racing Coilovers.
I installed the 8k front and rear swift springs and what a major, major differance! I love how it feels and rides! |
Tires Update!
Tax return coming soon and I need new tires. Which means new rims {thumbup}
This is what I plan to get: XXR-522 18x9.5 Chromium Black Yokohama S. Drive 265/35 R18 I want my tires to last longer then some of the options that are out there and that why i'm not going with RE-11 or something similar to that. I might even change it to something that is 265/40. I will also be going to the field in May and hope to bring my car to the body shop and finally get it all done. |

The only thing I want to do is finish the body, BBK, nice sound system, and a couple of minor stuff. Then maybe in the future a Map Turbo. The clutches are holding great on the current setup with no issues and I still need to get the Super Sports Mode. |
I see that Ralliart from time to time lol. Mostly in Northeast sometimes lol. Looks good man, I also saw you pass up I believe a challenger trying to race you like nothing if I recall.

lol... That would be me. I live in the Northeast by MLK. I will be going to the traks next friday. My friend who has a 370z has been bugging me to go. Hopefully it will be a sad day for him :D It's been a long time since I been on the track so it will be intresting. Also, I will be calling Sisbarro Mitsubishi in about 1 hr to see if they will be able to help me get S-Sports mode on the car. Will find out later today. They told me they have to talk to the Mitsubishi tech and see what he says but that they dont' see why they can't. If you ever need warranty work on your car. Go there and talk to Tony. He is always a great help and their service is great. |
Dude that's sick. Post your times, I haven't gone yet to the track with my Ralliart yet. All I know is your gonna kill it on the track.

Best time I had and my friend has was against each other :lol: I have a lot to improve and I mean a lot!!!! The first slip was against my friends 370z. The second one was against a GTO but has my fastest speed. He wanted to race me also.

Cooler was installed and working great. Got the brackets at lowes and new 1/2" hose and hose clamps at autozone.
Today I will be doing the electrical for it. I'm doing a SPDT switch that was I can turn it on when I want to for track days. Otherwise it will go on at 180F and turn off at 165F. For the switch I will have the top for manual turn on which will go directly to ground. The middle goes to the ground on the fan. The bottom goes to the oil temp switch. |

Plasti-Dipped the windsplitter support rod.
I also added smoked side markers. I'm hoping to make the final touches on the body kit tomorrow. Then on monday morning the car will go to the body shop to be completely finished. :D I should be picking it back up on June 15th when I return from Houston.

So my car is in the body shop getting all done. i'm hoping to order the vortex and get it wrapped in CF. The one that rexpeed was going to make feel through :( Take a look and see if I want to install my carnards Plasti-dip with glossifier to protect my clear coat. This should all be done hopefully by the start of june. Complete wiretuck and weight reduction by end of june.

Will keep you guys posted. |
The car would look so much more badass if it were lower!! Car is awesome but I just cant get over the wheel gap you have. If the cars goin to the body shop have them fix the body kit so the car can be lower.
|
I would but I would not be able to drive around with out scraping :-(. If I go out of my driveway wrong I scrape now. I'm 5.5" from the ground I believe. Can't to a few people house because they have large dips in the roads. I used to hit them when I was lowered then I am now. If I did not live here then I would drop another 1". Would the car look better lowered yes but I also don't think the pictures do it justic. It don't think it looks like it needs to be lowered till I see a picture.
|
Texas roads are that bad?! Here in Indiana & Illinois Ive never seen such terrible roads and Im lowered on springs 2" and have a front cf lip. Never scraped anything but that little flap under the front. My parents have a monster curb to pull in their driveway and if I go in at an angle I never hit. Ive had major practice driving these roads lowered as this is my 5th lowered car Ive owned and my previos car a 350Z was 2" off the ground with a full lip kit and that was work not hit things.

Well my car should be ready when I get back into town. The car is looking good! The hood is finally redone, well almost lol... I went to the body shop today to get an update on it and to see how it looks. It looking amazing. I plan to use plasti-dip glossifier on it when it comes out. I should be putting the carnards and the Vortex wrapped in CF on. I do want to put the CF side skirt extensions on it but I might have to wait.
I also got invited to a car show. Still waiting on more information but if eveything goes well my car should be in it. |
Car Show on Saturday. My car will be there and I'm very excited as this will be my first car show I'm actually in. Finally got the body finished and it's looking great. Just some minor parts I still want to add which I might add everything that I have before the event which is the front carnards and ground effects. Need some new pics and will be taking them at the event as there is suppose to be models and everything like that there.

Just did not want the horns that most STIs have on them so it's different and I like how it sounds a lot more than the OEM ones but when I can I will take a picture. |

Before I decide to cover my car in full plasti-dip I started to experiment. Clear and metallic gold. Here are the results and the metallic gold does give it a metallic look to the paint. First I did one layer of glossifier and then 2 of the gold and 3 of the glossifier. The one on the driver side is the one in plasti dip and the passenger has nothing added to it. What you guys think? I believe I need one more gold layer and 2 more clear layer. It was put on very lightly and these was with the spray cans.

Thanks everyone! Sorry for such a late reply. I have not been on here for a very long time. Just a quick update. The car is running great and I painted all the carbon fiber black. The carbon fiber took a beating because of the heat. I actually like the black look and maybe later today I will take a picture of it. The transmission is holding up well after almost 4 years. I did change my headlights but I think that's about it.
I'm getting ready to do some stuff next year. I will post when time comes. |
Not clean though, has a light layer of Dust

My Transfer Case is dying. I ordered a used one and it should be here soon. It's used but has 36k miles and I got it for $650.
I notice some issues with my suspension. A lot of boots leading from the axel and the control arms. I got CV joint boots for all the axels, total of 8. Got a ball joint for the lower control arms and some whiteline parts that I will be installing also, wish they had everything I needed as a product. Whiteline KLC163 - Front Sway Bar Links Whiteline W53382 - Front Lower Control Arm Bushings - Inner Rear Position Whiteline W0593 - W0593 Front Control Arm Bushing Ordered some Nylon And Stainless Steel Braided Fuel Oil Gas Line Hose Black because some of them are starting to look bad on the car and some High Temperature Silicone Vacuum Tubing Hose. Will be ordering a new transmission radiator fan as my fan is DEAD. That means when I get to the shop, it will be a busy day. |
