I could go for a service manual too! I'd definitely prefer the print booklet too. I wonder if any place would actually be willing to do a group buy for that?

I asked that myself. They think that the Evo plugs will be a lot different than the DSM plugs. Possibly higher tolerance, or heat rating? They said they'll be different. We're going to look on our next Evo.

The only set of those that my car ever saw was the set that came with the car. Other than that, I buy BPR6ES or BPR7ES, depending on my mood.
Unless the head is radically different, I can't see why you couldn't just substitute with another, cheaper, NGK plug. You may have to replace them sooner, but you will come out ahead in the long run. And changing plugs on a 4G63T is a 10 minute affair.

GTR - If everyone can give me a few weeks, I can get a discount set up for us. I am at work right now so I am not going to go into it. But lets just say, in roughly a few weeks I will have access to parts for you guys. I'll write more on this later. But, I can say I can probably get a discount set up for you guys to get some of these parts cheaper. How much I don't know right as of now, but I can assume it will be worth your while. Let me talk to who I need to talk to and I'll clear things up for you.

What's with these crazy tires prices? And only from Mitsu? Rip-off!! Well , I guess we can be happy we arent going to be paying $1800/set like the guys waiting to get their STis. I read that over in NASIOC yesterday. Does anyone know if there are tires as good as the ones on the evo that we can get third party?

Conicelli Mitsubishi already sells parts at very discounted prices to mailorder customers. www.partznet.com It usually works out to list price minus 25%. I get all my DSM parts from them.

Fireball, I was wondering how do the prices of the brake pads compare with the normal lancer pads? A friend of mine was insisting that the usdm evo8 part prices should be *high* due to the fact that it is a limited production model. Those prices don't look bad to me!

im no math genius or anything but if the bulbs last 10,000hrs, theres 24 hrs in a day, then that means they will give you about 416 full days worth of use, now dont get me wrong or anything but i expect to have a car much longer than that, just sayin that cause you said life of the car and i know many people who are constantly changin their bulbs that say "10,000hrs of use"
