How much would a 2L Mivec (with tranny) cost? Say a 6A12?

Around 2Lacs i think.

Sideways would be the most accurate resource for Mivec clarifications.

the front bumper almost done

the rear with the spoiler

finally getting some shape

The car is shaping up very beautifully

badboyscad · 6th December 2007, 23:32

mmm..yummy...eager to see the finished product..

razor4077 · 6th December 2007, 23:33

Nice progress. Starting to look very good already! Am not a huge fan of the big fog lamps, but hey, its EVO inspired

Do fit some wide tyres once done, else the big skirts will make the tyres look very skinny and funny. Would recommend 205's.

@ redeye

The foglamps on your car look to be very "out of focus" as in they seem to be aiming too much on the side & not the front, hope that is correctable - or else IMHO the whole purpose of the lamps is defeated..

redeye- the cars coming out realy good,make sure if you going for red, go for dupont-passion red ok??

blueraven316 · 8th December 2007, 18:32

When ra When ?? When is the car coming out ?? When will I see this thread with pics of a complete car ?

redeye · 8th December 2007, 22:24

@ricky 63- The cuts on the bumper makes it look like that . the lamps inside are straight but .. I double checked it with the evo 6 the cuts are slant which go with the flow of the bumper.But i can still change the angle of the lamps inside the bumper.

@designnation- the paint is going to be formula red . similair to the palio red

@blueraven316- It's going come out very soon , but as soon as it leaves ss concepts the car as to go the show room for the new suspension as my old ones are really bad.. then to Raj for the green filter i purchased to be fitted and also the ss end can. Then for audio install to you

looks like i still have a long away to go...

redeye · 8th December 2007, 23:13

i had been to ss concepts today . we tried the wheels for the car.

the problem is i feel the wheel (tire & alloy) are small for the car . they are 15 inch 205-50-15 . the gap between the wheel arch and tire is big.

What do you guys suggest i should do. If the lower the shocks the car bodykit will be very low.. what should i do

should i exchange them for 16inch

which is the size that suits the lancer -15inch or 16th or 17th

If i increase size won't there be suspension problems .
i drive alot on high way.

Please help me guys , i'm stuck

and for the head lamps i planning to buy new stock head lamps from the show room .

Since most of the after market lamps have very bad light quality decided to go with original stuff ..

the tail lamps are also going to be new stock lancer tail lamps thats what is in my mind right now.

confused actually if i should buy after market or company tail lamps.

anybody who has used the after market ones please tell your experiences with it.
