But... The JDM Lancer Ralliart is 4G93 GDI 1800 DOHC 16 Valve Intercooler turbo engine.
There is a member here name pikachu that has a jdm ralliart (he is from singapore) and with a few bolt on he is now at 215HP.

hi everyone....looks like quite a discussion here.....
Regarding the interior, to be honest it looks nice, but you guys are not missing much. No doubt the seats are Recaros, the bolstering is kinda bad and that is why my seats are changed. The only thing nice about the interior is the CF panels, and thats about it.
Regarding the engine, yes its nice to have a factory turbo charged engine because the initial power gain can be easy by slapping on an open pod, boost controller, exhaust...after that it qets complicated. At the end it is a 1.8L block and a semi-auto...It would be nice to have a manual but that can be arrange by a gearbox swap with the previous CK4 1.8T GSR.....but than again it cost money....
While there are more things to do for an FIed 2.4 block but at the end, its still a displacement game plus the fact that you guys get a manual tranny.......Personally I think between the USDM and the JDM model its more or less equal depending on what one is looking at.....

^^^ Thank for chiming in, I was hoping you see this thread, since we have less than 3 members here with the JDM lancer ralliart and you post the most out of the bunch. Personally with all the options of tranny swap (manual) and upgrades for power, I rather go with a JDM ralliart than a USDM ralliart. Plus, that interior is to die for when sitting in our car.
Think you can post up clearer pics of your interior?

Still, I think the 4G69 is a better engine, for us. I don't know how tunable GDI engines are, or even if they would work on our gas. Having a 4G6X engine means having it being a relative of the 4G63 which American tuners know very well. And since it is FWD, I still think the American RA is the better car for this market. The seats do look sharp in that car though.

Tranny swap with the CK4 GSR is gonna be an expensive exercise because there were not many producted, and was taken off production once the EVO4 came on. I have found the box and it cost something like USD7000 estimate for a close ratio 5 speed with LSD and lighten flywheel......linkages included...but thats alot of money to spend....heheheheeee
Interior is nice to look at....but on long journey.....it really sucks....I am not very tall at 5ft 8in backaches and slipping butts......heheheheee
I just gotten my digital camera back from the service centre....I take better pics and post it back......

Its not very easy to tune a GDi engine.....If a standalone goes in, the GDi function has to be disabled.

Of all things, I don't mind the differences. THere's reasons for them all. But something like HID headlights should AT LEAST be an option in the US if not standard.
