    Default HELP!!!! What to do with my semi-new '03 Lancer

    I'm soon to buy an '03 Lancer with tons of mods on it already. My problem is, I don't know what else I can do to it.

    Here is a list of mods already on it:

    Roadrace headers
    Magnaflow exhaust
    Aftermarket head and tail lights
    Custom interior
    Custom system and trunk
    17 inch Konig rims
    Lowering springs
    Roadrace ECU
    Injen Cold Air Intake

    What else can I do???? Help me, PLEASE!!!!

    Okay look, you need to get a life and actually give me so god damn advice. I'm tired of you bashing my fucking car. I'm not a rich fuck like you and personally, I don't want to be and I don't think you deserve anything that you have. Shut the hell up and get your own brain, since you can't make up any good sentences on your own. You had to steal it from the asshole that posted the same thing under my thread in the girl's forum.

    Sorry guys, but I don't want to buy an EVO. I have never seen another Lancer ES with mods around where I live. I have seen EVO's out the ass. I want to be different.

    I think its cool that you want something a little different, and if speed is not a top priority, then it sounds like a great car. However, if power is high on your list, you may want to consider starting with the high-end model of whatever car you want. Take this for example: I used to own a 97 eclipse gs. I was 18 and it was all I could afford or insure. But no matter what I did, I was getting spanked by turbo dsm's all the time and it pissed me off. Not to mention every time I stopped to get gas or something, someone would ask "hey, is that a turbo". Finally I sold the GS and bought a gs-t in the same color just to surprise some people. Now I get "hey, is that all weel drive" but that's another story for another day. Anyway, all that said . . if you like the car, be proud and drive the shit outta it.

    alright... you have a few options.. NO2 is not one of them! there are the non-intercooled road race kits. they give some good power, but not too much. this is a non-engine build kit... works on stock internals.
    you could also look into the ripp mods supercharger. still a little pricey, but gains like the RRM kits.

    your not gonna find any "cheap" ways to build high HP. you have the major bolt ons already. if turbo is too much for you, you have stuff like; ported throttle body, ported intake manifold, test pipe, spark plug wires, short shifter, camshaft, cam gear, valve springs, A/F controller, Fuel pressure regulator, and thats some for power.

    for looks, carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber trunk, body kit, lots of appearance upgrades from RRM.

    suspension, strut bars, sway bar, etc...

    theres plenty of stuff out there for the cars. you just have to look. check outl nopionline.com , roadracemotorsports.com , visionimports.com , rmrproducts.com , rippmods.com. that should hold you for a while.

    glad to help
    Paul

    P.S.- and Daniel, when are you supposed to get your boost?

    I have the carbon fiber trunk and hood...I'm planning on ordering body kits in the next few weeks. I have lowering springs and such but I want to get Tien adjustables.

    I don't know...I need to think about this a little more in depth.

    You can get the walker body kit from NGkits.com for the lancer for only $425.00. It's 800 dollars at extreme dimensions and erebuni, etc. I'm sponsored by them. They are really good people and the kits are really good quality. i've gone through three of them (due to female drivers....lol no offense to female drivers... except those short asian ones...lol j/k again) and all three kits have been nicely done. when you want it painted, just roll over to Sprayglo on Buford Highway (their link is on this site), and tell them i Sent you (Zack with blue lancer) You can go by their shop and see all the awesome cars they have painted.

    I'm thought about getting the Ken style bodykit. I like it so much more than the other ones that I have seen....its 600 including shipping on accoladebodykits.com. I love it. Keep the suggestions coming.

    Thumbs up

    Getting Bride, Sparco, or Momo Racing seats is not a bad idea. Well the good thing Raena is you have a good head start.
