Bennoz changed over to evo brakes, so I guess he is the best man to get you the details. :)

FTO GPX brakes are identical to Evo iii..

I am told control arms and suspension is too. I haven't confirmed.. But may look at putting the FTO Tein's on my iii.. :)
I just had to add it ......

FTO's are a bitza. They share some Evo stuff, some Lancer/Mirage stuff & quite a bit of Magna stuff.

Anything in particular you're looking for?

I made Evo V brakes fit, but that also required control arms & hubs..

And Volvo stuff, toyota stuff, dodge stuff.

Eg. PCV grommet at Mitsubishi is $40.00. Go to Toyota, it's exactly the same and its $11.00.

I couldn't get a match for lower control arm bushes from another Mitsubishi make. Had to go through Mitsubishi! They were cheaper as well?
