$56.00 worth of quality mitsubishi parts 

 

[clone]

if you have time and don't need parts quickly, theres a website (cant remember someone else will surely) that you can order parts as long as you know the part numbers from japan/Malaysia at a fraction of the price.
 
have used them heaps of times previously and always worked out heaps cheaper
 

[mat]

is it the jnztuning one? they seem a fair bit cheaper.

[brisvr4]

Holy crap batman!
Amayama.com is the one that you want to buy from.
MB580253 BUSH, PLASTIC $5.46
MB949744 BUSH, RUBBER $4.49

parts i got with the car for clutch, are these parts ok to use, any issues?

 

[mat]

intercooler i have lying around, would this solve my problem of fitting the stock bumper? i didnt have a tape measure at the time but its similar in size but the inlet and outlet are in different places

[ENGINR]

The factory intercoolers are pretty good.... I'd think a bit harder about trying to make that work instead of swapping it for something else.  I think the effort you will go to trying to get the black one to fit and work properly would be better spent making the EVO one sit in there nicely.

 

If it's a fibre glass bar, spend a bit of time trimming it up to remove any fouls to the hardware behind it.

 

In regards to your gear shifter setup - please please please paint the rest of it too!  The base looks a bit neater but it's amazing what a difference some paint on the linkages and cable brackets will make (unless you're planning to put the centre console back in and cover it all up and then it won't matter!!)

 

Keep up the good work - I like how you're fixing/tidying up all the little things .

I used to have that exact same clutch. Careful.

thanks for the info, regarding the shifter setup, i ran out of sand for my sand blaster so i didnt do the rest, i did it mainly to get rid of rust, not for any other reason but the centre console is back on

 

yeah my goal is to have just a nice daily car that is looked after but something i enjoy driving

careful as in dont use it or its ok on a stock car? 

it came with the car when i bought it so if i should be looking at a different clutch id rather know before i put it in 

[Geo&Kez]

I'd be careful of that clutch in a 'driven' car, regardless of power level. I believe it was the shock loads that destroyed the rubber dampers. 100% street would probably be ok. I'd think again if you intend on any track work at all. That plate I pictured above wouldn't have had any more than a few hundred track Km on it.

I'm not poo pooing it, you just asked about issues, so passed on mine.

[mat]

hehe nah its fine, id rather know than not

the joys of driving through a forest on a dirt road every day   stupid rock!

 

 

so im going to try the ones off my old tj magna, see if they fit... if not can i use standard lancer ones? if not any idea where i may be able to get them?

Not having much luck with this car so far man.....

[Geo&Kez]

Geez mate, looks more like a star picket than a rock!! Bad luck!

Might want to look at some form of protection if your on those types of roads. A piece of 100mm Aussie duct cut to size won't look any good, but will help to stop shit like that.

[mat]

yeah i think my middle name should have been unlucky 

 

it pushed the floor up in a couple of spots and i just noticed it looks like its cracked in the second pic 

 

yeah ill need to do something, i might look into raising the car a bit aswell as look into your idea Geo&Kez

 

this is what happened last time i hit one of these rocks:

 

so if anyone can point me in the right direction for finding fuel lines, can i get them from an auto shop?, wrecker? will stock lancer ones fit or do i need 4g93t specific? is the correct name fuel line? are they all fuel lines, i know one definitely was as fuel was spraying out of it

is the floor able to be welded?
