Speaking of which ... Is there a good source that you know about for replacement studs, both stock and extended?

Thanks,

Just a heads up, but i had a bad experience with ARP extended lugs in the past, the threads were horrible. Not normally like this company, but perhaps the QC isn't as good as it is on the motor parts. FWIW.

No worries. It was just kind of strange getting phone calls and PMs out of no where, but I guess that is good news for if I ever did really want to sell it.

Which Mitsubishi dealership in SLC (Downtown or SouthTown) would you recommend for warranty work? Which tech should I request for the service work? Thanks!

Evasive is where I get ours. Good pricing and customer service.

I'm running a 1 inch front spacer on the S2000 as well. Allows me to have same wheels all around rather than dedicated fronts and rears.

I went down to Brison Motors today to check out the white MR they have. That thing is a mess. It was in the shop because they killed the clutch on it. The trunk is wingless and it is a different color white than the car. Some 18 year old kid was showing me the car and was telling me that the STI that was right next to it is quicker off the line than the EVO, but that the EVO is faster. So he basically admitted that they have rallied it. I doubt I'll be buying any cars from them.

Did they still have the GG SE on their lot? I was thinking about that car for a week or so.

Good info though, I will make sure I stay away.

yeah that is still there. looked pretty clean except for a big scratch on the front lip. I just have a feeling those guys like to test their cars before the sell them.

SLC guys, can you recommend a REPUTABLE shop for doing a trans removal and re-install? An Evo buddy of mine just moved to SLC from DC and needs to send his trans to Shep for some beefing up, but he needs a good shop. I'm hoping there is a go-to place in SLC that can be trusted with race-prepped Evos.

Funny thing is they are asking more then SouthCoast and a few other dealers offer them new. Thought though if you could make a good deal it was closer then all the cheap dealers.
