alot of people have beat me with there builds LOL parts sat in the closet for one year you really think im in any type of hurry LOL. Long as there is progress im happy and besides alot more parts and advancements since i started collecting like fortune auto parts and the creation of mona lisa i would have missed out on if i rushed the build. . only part left to obtain is strictly modified built Transmission and fortune auto bolts. JMS has every single other part in there possession it will be done in august. they had to get two cars done before mine

dang dude treating you like a deadbeat customer that owes them money lol. They probaly have no clue on why its taking soooooooooooooooo long to get these pistons. They know your on a time limited but they have no control of the situation so your left with your finger up your *** wondering how you got into this whole mess. Im positive once they arrive and are installed and once you get the motor you will be stoked but until that happens all you can do is play the waiting game as we all do when waiting for parts

Side note: Rock you remember that JDM group buy thread you posted in yesterday or so? I posted in it also.....

Well it just disappeared! I was setting something up with someone about hooking us all up, and the thread just magically got lost....

haaa i know right. LOL i still think oem is the best im sure the group buy was for the replica from extreme dimensions and when everybody was pro OEM they pulled the thread but YOU KNOW you will not get the bumper less then 750+ shipping its up to like what 850 now lol. price will continue to raise your better off buying a used one and repainting it.

Well i had a vendor setup that could get a pretty nice price on them.... and everyone in the thread said they wanted oem, so i dont think thats the case. there were only a couple posts related to extreme dimensions....

So looks like another case of over-moderation....

Yeah I actually do. I'm getting the headliner from you. Sending you the $45 tomorrow or Friday. Seats, eh there alright but I would like Brides and turbo, still deciding if I should actually go ahead and do it or get a used evo 9

if you could transfer everything over it would be a go for it you have already put WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to much money into the lancer to only be able to bring the rims over. Kind of a wild ideal if you ask me. If you build the motor and turbo it sky is the limit hommie thats the point im making. We are missing each other on that. the only thing you really miss is AWD preformace lol ill say that but again your at a nice point with lancer that a turbo and built motor guages would make it hella cool. selling it to start over and get a evo is a rough start. If you were going to do that then you should have never put money into the lancer just use it as a car.

Yeah I understand but again my cars an automatic so plus there's no company that had fully made a turbo kit accept for m/t and that company is RRM. So I would have to wait a bit longer unless I do a tranny swap then go with RRM's turbo but I'm not going to do that...

Most likely get all the other things I want to get , wait 2-3 years then get a slightly modded Evo 9.
