Default 2001 Lancer Coupe` - Gotta love rice.

What can I say about my precious?

I call her betty ... dunno why but yh...

Anywho, she's a Mitsubishi Lancer (Mirage in US) Gli Coupe`

1.5L (1498cc) 4 cyl NA engine with 79kw or about 100hp.
5 speed manual.
No engine modifications, it'll stay that way for resale reasons.

I've put a 4 1/2 inch Carbon Fiber exhaust with a superheated blue flame tip. (cost me $1.25 on eBay)
Theres also 17" Lenso GF-7 wheels with a 205,40,17 profile directional V tread.
I've put 'Ralliart' style tail lights (see before and after shots)
I've got my little steering wheel and my custom button. (Autobots DEPLOY!)

I've also recently installed a 'fuuuully sick' audio system but haven't take photos of it yet...

For those on the Melb. FG Cruise, you'll hear me from a mile away images/smilies/tongue.gif

Its a Sony Xplod system. images/smilies/blink.gif

6" splits (w. tweeters), 200W
6x9" rears, 300W
12" 1300W Sub in custom Sony Box
500W mono block amp
600W 4 channel amp

And my head unit is nuts compared to my old one (it has a remote) and flashes green and red: images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

http://www.sony.com.au/objects/600x400/CDXGT560.jpg

Also, for the imminent completely unorganised roadtrip (www.freewebs.com/ftproadtrip) I'll be putting in a PA system with a Mic and control unit which has 40 different sounds (including 12 sirens for fun/prank much?) and a car fridge ... but thats for a different type of enjoyment

Pictures (forgive the camera phone)

Oh man, that car is begging for the EVO drive train swap. And yes, it has been done a few times. You could at least put an older generation 4G63T in it.

Hahaha ... yeah ... but no images/smilies/tongue.gif

I've pretty much spent as much as I want to and getting a 4G63T down here is easier said than done.

They don't let you replace the steering wheel here unless it has a fully functional and A-tested airbag module.

I'm surprised they let you do it, provisional driver and all.
