SPEC RA-400 Ralliart

What would you guy's say if someone came out with a kit that possibly could be licensed by Ralliart Inc. That would be simillar to the FQ-400 mods done on the EVO 8, but would be more for the Ralliart with say, a numberd Plaque in the dash, both front door graphics that say SPEC RA-400 and have some goodies to go along with it, like slight areo dynamics, maybe small engine mods, etc.


Gimme some ideas on what you would like. Oh, and of course, a Certificate of authenticity would come with it, with your limited production kit to say you have somthing that very few people have.

I agree with rocketman, more power rather than looks, the stealth method is the best

I know the FQ is way out there in price, but i was just thinking that maybe a company would specialize in producing a limitted production kit, something that not all Ralliart owners would have but would still find an interest in getting

So, basically the question is what would you wanna see in a FQ-400 type of package but taken down to the level of the RA, right?


1- 20 to 25 more HP.

2- A nice aero package to make it look just a tad more agressive (a bit more like a GT or Touring Car look).

3- Some really clean engine and interior trims.


Target price for me? Less than 500$US...


I would save like crazy (and it's quite a difficult thing for me) if such a kit was available and it really made the car perform a bit better and look better too (but not ricey, which is quite difficult to acheive).

the FQ-400 is a 90k car lol it's about 60k above the base price, and the biggest upgrade is the power...it's got 400hp. if a special edition lancer was released with the FQ badge it would have to live up to what FQ stands for which as everybody knows is, F-cking Quick. They'd have to drop at least 250hp in that thing. wheel and tire package would be added more than likely, but it would have to be a turbo...and would hike the price up pretty good... might as well just buy an EVO lol

More power. If they could bump it up to 200/200 for less than $1000-1500, I'd like that.

Limited-slip differential would be a necessity to get that power down.

Tighter suspension, thicker rear swaybar, etc. I'd relocate or do away with the stock sub to make way for a rear strut bar.

No aero/body changes, I wouldn't want to advertise what I had.

Deff more power. Maybe rims / tires. I'm not crazy about splitter / canards.

How about this for under $2000

-engine mods
-lip
-special graphics (tastefull)
-wheel/tire package


Problem is, most of us have some or all of this in some way. Therez no way I'm going to ditch my stuff for this kit. Mabye if my car was stock, this would be the way to upgrade all at once.
