Where's everyone from?
 

Ok, seeing as all of us Mirage/Colt/Summit kids are so frikin boring, I thought I'd start a new thread and try to get everyone talking. Where's everone from? Whatcha got done to your car? Any future plans? Spanked any Honda boys lately? Just a few topics of discussion, feel free to add on. I'll start!

My name is Chris, I live in the middle of nowhere in good ol' Buckeye country (oh ya, national championship bound baby! GO BUCKS!). I own 2 Mirages, a 1999 canary yellow naturally aspirated 5g DE sedan. Nothing much done to this one, intake and a HP racing catback, some underbodies, short shift kit, ect. ect. ect.

My real pride and joy is my 1998 Silver turbo charged 5g DE Sedan. There are only a handfull of these here in the states, just about everything is custom built. Here's the list of mods for her:
-T3 Super 60 turbo charger, internally gated @ 9psi
-Hallman manual boost controller
-Custom turbo manifold
-Custom bent intercooler pipes
-FMIC (soon to be replaced with an Evo VIII FMIC)
-XSP blow off valve
-210cc injectors
-AEM fuel pressure regulator
-A'Pexi SAFC II
-Custom 2.5" turbo-back exhaust (no cat, she cackles when you pop the throttle :D )
-H&R lowering springs
-Front upper strut brace
-Stiffened shifter bushings
-Clutchmaster's Stage 3 clutch
-HSR Racing 15x6 5 spoke rims (flat black)
-Autometer A/F & Boost guages
-Pivot Race tach
-Sparco shift knob
-Pioneer head unit
-Jensen 220w amp
-2x Rockford Fosgate P1 12" subs
-Evo V body kit
-Vis Evo V carbon fiber hood


Soon to come:
-D2 36-way adjustable race coil overs
-A2 Designs valve springs
-A2 Designs Stage 2 upper intake manifold
-Ram-horn style turbo manifold
-T3/T4 hybrid turbo
-38mm external wastegate
-275cc Mivec injectors
-A2 Designs fuel rail
-Battery relocation kit
-Ground wires
-Evo VIII Recaro Racing seats
-Evo VIII Front Mount Intercooler
-Enkei 17x7 Evo V rims (gunmetal)
-Nitto Neo gen's
-Maybe a new paint job

So there's my baby in a nut shell. Still a lot of work to be done to her, but she's commin along.

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

^^^^HAHAHA. i always thought it was some JL Audio subs on the back of a power-wheels hummer.....but now that i look at it i can't really tell what he's doin. but i'm with Bryan, i want a REAL evo. I'm hoping to have one withing the next 2-4 years (whenever i get out of school and can keep the money i make instead of dumping it all into tuition)

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

You want my advice i say get an EVO VI imported. They are cheap as fank in japan and they are actually proveln faster than the 9

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

how much would it cost all together??

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

idk really. The price of those things change all the time and im not too sure about the prices in Japan.. the only thing i know is that they are alot cheaper than england. I would say the whole cost would be around 15k

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

what about the right hand drive, theres gotta be some kinda law that you cant drive that in america?

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

just buy a damn 9. they run higfh 12's stock. dont worry bout importing a car to the US. It is not worth it in my opinion.

RE: Where's everyone from?
 

i'm not exactly picky on what kind of evo it is..........but if it's the last thing i do, i will own an evo! [sm=partyparty.gif]
