well that answers my above question

 

holy long thread to read through.. took me forever

nice project man

 

Actually the Europe version have fog light.
They are on the trunk doors, please look on mine VI


The one shown here is from UK, isn´t it?
It is for the JDM cars which came to UK to pass the MOT test and be road legal.
Recently they have small version which fits more neat.

Anyway I look forward for the big things

 

Awesome progress you've been making can't wait to see whats next

 

JDM has no rear fog it's installed on cars that are imported into the Uk from japan thats all and is usually put into the bumper, the one pictured above has fogs in the door of the trunk which mine has also, it's an option asfaik some have a clear boot and some have the lights, here in ireland we are allowed to keep the cars as they came in from japan so we don't need foglights installed, and they have amber indicators, i've had three red tiommi maks imported from japan, clear indicators are put on aftermarket by some guys but are not original, the dude in the earlier post from australia who told you you were sadly mistaken is himself sadly mistaken he just bought a mak that had them installed.. great job and keep it up

 

Haha yeah lots of confusion. It's either JDM, UKDM, or EDM. I'm not much a fan of the amber corners now I that I have them on. I only bought them because my other corners had crap fitment. Maybe in a month or two I can source some genuine E6 clear ones.

And as for the rear fog, it's cool, but I'd rather gave the boot garnish ones. After fixing up the one (which I just sold), I decided I didn't want to cut up the bumper, for a show piece.

 

Very cool project sir.....just went to all the pages

can't waith to see more.keep up the great work

 

I think they may come with either. Because I don't think I have ever seen a white TME with amber indicators only clear, like the factory pic in my avatar. My TME RS has clear that are factory and I've look through a ton of pics of white TME's and all seem to have clear indicators. The red one do have amber though. It could be like the rear decal they are different shades for the different color cars.

 

Very nice

 

The indicator color is not the important thing.
The thing which is counting is the 4G63 under the hood.

Put TME in google and you will find them in both colors, so confusion yes.
But I don´t care

 

That's right, and it will be the next thing to take care of (after an upcoming shipment). Apart from putting on the flares and skirts, there's not much left but turbo and AWD!

 

will you be changing the steering rack to a tommi makinen one also? it takes 2.2 turns lock to lock as opposed to the GSR's 2.6 turns. i love driving mine on the twisty roads, you can hit the apexs with pinpoint acuracy and assurance, also the mak has a titanium turbo for better low down power with a quicker spool up they may seem like small differances but they make the makinen stand apart from the GSR and when both in factory spec they will outpace an evo 9 so they had it just right in the year 2000

 

I would love to convert to a Tommi steering rack, but it'll be near impossible finding a LHD one. I have a RHD GSR rack coming next week (along with the lower arms) so I'm going to see if I can swap some parts to make it LHD.

 

There are actually places where to find original LHD parts for the TME as this model was also available in LHD.

Read this article on a garden Lancer successfully converted into a TME. I know the owner of this TME, and he used the same Rack and Pinion for the steering. Up to now, the car is in perfect running condition taking on the tracks
