those are some sexy cars!

where in sydney are you guys at? and for the things you don't do yuorselves, are there specific "staz friendly" mechanics that you go to?

also, are the widebodies higher at the back? it looks like the rear has more ground clearance on your cars...

...just the slant in the driveway makes the arse-end stick out, although the rears are standard spring height!

A few differences in the sense my car has a clutch fan and a smaller TC05 turbo and no SHP struts...
whereas Shannon's car had twin thermo fans, a hybrid TD05 of some sort and SHP struts...
other pleasant surprises were the mesh wheels + good tyres and the nice dark blue colour.

And a not-so-rattly 2.6L engine :)

Thats because I've been banned for a year or so. Started up nwstarquest for the nw guys.

It's not going much anywhere right now. Got rid of the stock turbo setup and have been working on flanges for a twin td04h 14b setup. I should have the driveshaft done up shortly though. Just a bunch of small nickel and dime crap that all adds up. Also doesnt hel[p I have to drive an hour just to work on it.

no no, look at the angle of the rear windscreen, or the roof, or even between the front and the rear wheels.. the edge at the fron tof the rear wheel looks higher than the edge behind the front wheel...

or, compare the angle of the rear windscreen and roof between the widey and the flatty.. looks different to me..

yeah, also, the mechanic question..?

The narrow body has height adjustable coilovers in it and they are set lower than the springs in the widey. As for a mechanic i have always done most things myself but you could try Meek automotive.Chris has a great knowledge of all things mitsubishi and used to own starions.
