Hey, Ive been floating around this forum for a couple of months now. Got my FTO then. Heres some pics and specs:

Mit FTO GPX
MIVEC
Manual
87000km odo

Its completely stock besides the tint I had put on last week. I was planning to start modding her with a nice suspension package and maybe some rims and go from there, but am desperately saving for a house now :cry: . This pic is of my old Mirage with my new FTO.

as u can see for a lancer it is more than qualified to be in this club, so I hope thats fine with all of u
it currently has the engine, gearbox(manual), suspension and brakes from the FTO with a 2.5inch catback exhaust and pod filter plus a cadence sound-system with panasonic head unit

this made 119 kW at the wheels, future mods include a retrim and respray plus some little additions here and there

thanks man, yeah bought the car stock as in '04 and went to the shop the 3rd day I had it with the deposit and then before I'd even had it 12 months it had all the work done, I'm extremely happy with it so far but of course I wanna get the thing singin even better, keep it N/A, of course and try for as much power as possible, mine is one of only two so far in Qld, hopefully wont be the last but for now its the only sedan, the other is a coupe with the plates 28NVD, appeared in Hot 4s, mine has been in Queensland Street Car in its current guise but at last years Jambo I had a couple guys from Fast Fours come and say that I should let them know when I get the mods complete and they will put it in the mag
