Alright so after nearly a month and a half trying to deal with courtesy imports I'm done with them. All I wanted was a spare key cut\programmed and they are too inept to even do that. So basically I need the key cut and I should already have someone that can program it. Any suggestions?

unfortunately only car dealerships will cut car keys, from my experience that is. That pretty much leaves Jim Marsh mitsubishi. You might even be able to go to a decent dealership and see if they can do it for you, esp if you already have the blank.

Take it to a machine shop if you don't have the tool, I did good luck and enjoy the fp.

There was quite a few evo's at the track last night. I took my evo out for the first time and had a blast!
Ran a best of
1.826 60'
12.663 ET
106.77 MPH

1.844
12.786
105.81

1.851
12.703
108.19

1.875
12.747
107.36

car felt good bogging a little off the line. I needed to bump my 2step up to 6k and could a removed some air from the tires and maybe cut a 1.7 but thats for next time.

Anyone have a 255/40ZR17 Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec ? I got a flat tire and didn't notice it until I was throwing rubber. I wish I have a warranty. Can anyone get me a deal on just one tire?
