Congrats Karthik!

Did u buy this new or is it a used one....cause a K&N on a new machine is not very Warranty friendly!

BTW, dud i buy the Aveo as well or not?

Cheers

@Devarshi, read the details in my garage, body kit is in for sure.

@Artofzen, i don't feel that the ride has become bumpy. Its not harsh at all actually. But is it cuz i'm running on 30 or 32PSI at the moment.

neat.. always wanted to have a black and a yellow lancer parked in my garage

whats your view on the aveo and the lancer now that you have bought the lancer?

Aveo is more comfy, upmarket and is of better quality, but surely not as fun as the Lancer.

Aveo can be a more of a family car while the Lancer is like a modders/tuners car.

In the end, for comfort, refinement et all, the Aveo. For hard driving and lots of fun, the Lancer!!

Hi Karthik, i came to know about your change of plan from Aveo to Lancer from J.K....what all mods are you planning? and from Autopsyche???...looking forward to a drive and the TREAT!!!

Guys,
Can someone tell me if i can get strutbraces or adjust the current shocks. And which one will be the better thing to do? I don't feel the ride is harsh at the moment, so i guess making it stiffer won't affect all that much.

And how much will the struts cost?? Also the steering shakes a lot while turning fast, what could it be? Just done the wheel balancing and alignment 2weeks ago!
