Already eliminated that possiblity, it has been felt with the stock rims/tire and my new winter rims/tires. And the 464km Brand new RA did the exact same thing. Its definitely not tires/alignment related.

My car still has a very noticiable shake while decelerating from 70-60km. I took the tech for a drive he confirmed it. Then we took a brand new RA with 464km on the clock for a drive. Same thing, just at 90-80km.
Apparently this shake is normal/acceptable. Im not all that happy because its a huge **** off for a new car to have this issue. Furthermore to have the tech say "sorry man it seems like just a driveline vibration" which they deem acceptable.

I've heard the same, part of regular maintenance is to get an alignment. I want to do that after my summers tires wrapped around GSR wheels are on the car.
Factory Alignment = crap. Looks like they are consistent too.

Aparently (as I had always thought) the Ralliart and MR TC-SST's are NOT the same:

Read throught the end of Paragraph #2.
I know it has to be the case, otherwise the RA tranny shouldn't be failing with mere stock MR power :-/ (meaning after a reflash and simple bolt-ons).
Damn, mitsu!... I think I'll just buy me an MR Tranny and get an SSP Clutch Upgrade on it right after!

but I thought getting a MR tranny would guarantee me what, hum... another 60,000 miles? I'm assuming that's how long MR TC's will last without issues

It's bleeding edge tech right now but it's becoming more common (R&T mentioned Ford is beginning to spec out twin clutch gearboxes for their cars to replace conventional automatics in even entry-level vehicles)
