they are the GTWorx springs. they only lower the car like .5 inch in the front/rear but have a much more balance rate to eliminate "porpoising" lol. whenever people see it in person they say, " dude when you gonna lower that thing"! hahaha this is the first time anyone has said the opposite. Awesome!

im around vinyled out cars constantly. and i just got so tired of hoppingin the same ol red mr everyday. so i had Terry(our vinyl man) take some pics and start laying out the Mitsu WRC graphics.

i dunno, i guess it just looked blank to me. i'm not out to prove a point or go rallying in europe, i just thought it looked more the part when sat/sun afternoon rolled around and it was time for some action.

right... with the camera on the pavement looking up. as apposed to my camera almost a little under 6ft in the air. its all about the angles son!

but check out the gtworx site if you're still un-easy about it. i think 20mm is close to like 3/4 inch for the front and 15 is around a half.

Looks nice but I think you could have done it more along the lines of the EVO IX rally car.
With the Metal Look instead of the grey, and better accents for the evo wide body.

Is this really all a WRC car puts down? I could see a low HP figure because they probably run restrictors but only 326 torque? I'd think it would be 500+.

as for the IX......

thats why id didnt use chrome vinyl and that design.. because i have a rare rally red MR VIII. i tried to keep it legit. just like the last 05 wrc car.
but the IX is badd-*** none-the-less.

as for the rally hp, i think all rally cars are limited at 2.0l and 300bhp with a peak of 340 ->http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Rally_Car

the "grey" i used isnt grey. its Oracal Series 951 metal flake silver. its very expensive 5 year vinyl. closest thing i could get to resemble the 05VIII car.

OH! and btw, that damn REAL MITSUBISHI carbon roof scoop with internal air box with vents and drain is 1,900 bucks!! i had to pass on that. lol

Sorry to get ot, but I just got into sign cutting and yes Oracal is super expensive stuff. But it is also the ****...

The car is amazing.... Love the lights.... I went the same route with flaps, built my own light bar, but didn't go with the graphics.... Kind of wish I did, my paint would be a whole lot happier...

sure i'll snap one at some point tonight. its nothing special either. i owe all my power attributes to 26lbs, Blitz Nur-spec exhaust, arc-style intake, and a bad-*** 4WS Tuning tune( wich i named: Make it RAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIN!) ;-) Tamer will get a kick outta that!
