Welcome to Pixel Car Art

[Mkid]

Bye bye Civic... Hello Evo lite:
(IMG:http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs061.ash2/36418_399682099354_508514354_4415779_658898_n.jpg)

[DMC-12]

I saw on facebook! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)


(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)


Awesome car dude (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif)

[Josh]

ME TOO (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)

make it cute

[M.I.V. Design.]

do i spy a ralli//art emblem?

[DMC-12]

You shouldn't (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) cause they're dead (IMG:style_emoticons/default/gasp.gif)

[Kubason]

nice one, my father has this one, too but without spoiler and different color
is that 1.8?

[carhartt]

congratz bud (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

[Shafz]

Judging by the pic I'm guessing its a 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart, quick cars.

Shafz.

[Kubason]

woah look who's here ^^
it isn't ralliart I think, just lancer sport sedan with everythink you can have on it

[FnF_Racer]

wow. just wow.

don't rice it up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

[EE8Kev]

OMFG! You did it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)

[Shafz]

Wow Kubason you remember me? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)

And yeah the bonnet/hood isn't like the RALLIART one, my mistake.

Shafz.

[Mkid]

This is the Ralliart one... lmao

its a turbo 2.0L to whoever asked... i think thats what you were askin.

So yes... you do see a ralliart emblem. and the hood is an aluminum hood from an evo X (it comes on the ralliart)

[Shafz]

Yeah I just realised it does have the hood vent, just the colour didn't make it obvious!

Its subtle, I like it, 235bhp/253lbft so its not exactly slow, not exactly what I'd buy with the money but I suppose pricing is different in the US..

Shafz.

[Mkid]

Its very quick. It does have a pretty noticeable turbo lag but its kind of cool in a way. You only get boost around 3k RPM

Then again, I have yet to put it into its "sport mode" (or whatever its called) yet... its in sort of "economy mode" right now.

And I payed 19,000 US$ for it. I think it was a pretty good deal.

[Shafz]

Oh at $19k USD Its cheaper than the car I would've got, forgot how good value these lancers are, I've been in a few turbocharged cars and tbh.. I kind of like turbo lag, not for me but for the passengers, the sudden kick they get is so awesome, watching them fly back..

Shafz.

[Mkid]

Hahaha, yes, it does stick you to the back of your seat when its ready to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif) its like "wait for it... WOOOSH!" haha

[Ed.]

I approve. f**king sexy update mate (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif)

[Angrybooger2]

you lucky dog!
it's beats man .
my pal just bought the base 09 lancer with a 5speed and put a full evo body kit on it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif) looks happy and is slow as heck i wish i couold have a rally art them mugs be sick but at that price i might have opped for a 2011 v6 stang :U

[Carly.]

OMFGWTFBBQ! LOVE IT! MAKE IT GO SIDEWAYS! OR GET AIR! OR BOTH! GYMKHANA, HOMIE!

[Noodles]

looks like a budget model (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

[Angrybooger2]

it's one step below the evo..
so it's not the budget model but the most expensive lancer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[Hellrazr]

I dont like the chrome accents around wheel arches they look cheap (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif)

i like the rest it is a sweet car

[Mkid]

You actually don't notice those chrome accents in person for some reason, I thought it looked stupid in pics, but when i'm near the car i never even notice them. *shrug*

[Hellrazr]

i still say they looks cheap but hey like they say the camera adds 10 pounds lmao (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif)

[_RX7 _]

hells yeah bro awesome buy man (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

[Carly.]

Get some sexy rims on that b1tch.

[Mkid]

everything is still under warranty. no mods yet. even the tires are under warranty (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif) its basically brand new still.

[Carly.]

Ah, I see. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif) Well, have lot of fun with it! It's already great.

[Mr.Acura-te]

Dont do any crazy slides and pull 400 G's or the black box in the car will pick it up and void yo warranty.

[Kubason]

wow, so it is ralli art! that's much cooler then I expected (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

[Mkid]

haha, yeah. it states that "racing" will void the warranty

[Victor.]

Just came. So awesome.

[M.I.V. Design.]

wow, so it is ralli art! that's much cooler then I expected (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

not wanting to believe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

[Wolf]

volk te37's nao.

[Mkid]

no warranty voidification yet guys! gotta keep it mint.

[Carly.]

But if you paint it mint green, won't that void your warranty? (IMG:http://www.pixelcarart.com/style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

[M.I.V. Design.]

no warranty voidification yet guys! gotta keep it mint.

you can always set it back to standard?

[Mkid]

you can always set it back to standard?

Thats true I suppose. But then I'd have to swap them out every time I take it to the shop.

To be honest, I'm so happy with the car, I don't want to violate it yet. maybe when I get more used to it and want a change. Really, the only thing I would change would be wheels. It already looks nice. The wheels are the worst part of the car in my opinion. They are chunky and give it an OEM look, in a bad way. They make the car look more tame.

[Daniel.]

f**kING HOT

I WANT IT

Gratz with your purchase, have fun with it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif)

The only Ralliarts we have are Colts -.- I want a ralliart, because an evo would be too expensive and a normal one too basic. The 'normal' Lancers have 4 cilinders (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

5 minutes work
i'm willing to swap my rims every week if i have nuf sets of m lol

[Carly.]

Five minutes??? Did you forget that he has to lift the car off the ground at least twice, and pick up and carry a grand total of eight wheels? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) I understand why he doesn't want to do that.

Stoere jongen (IMG:style_emoticons/default/facepalm.gif)

He was talking about everytime he wants to drive it, so everyday switching back to his normal rims.

BTW Mike, it's alright, leave it like this for now, there's no need to f**k the car up already (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

My car is a 4 banger too... its just a big 4 banger (2.0L) and has a turbo.

[Hellrazr]

Doesn't the Rally Standards state the motor needs to be a 2.0L so it would make scents that the motor a 2.0L being its a Ralliart and all in all its just a detuned and cheaper version of the Evo X. Yours has AWD?

[Mkid]

Its not so much a detuned evo. its more of a regular lancer with evo parts. It has the same 2.0 block as the evoX. and yes it is AWD. It has the AWD system from the Evo IX. it's basically an Evo Frankenstein. lol

[Hellrazr]

like i said detuned Evo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif)

[Unox.]

like i said detuned Evo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif)

more like OEM+ Lancer

[Josh]

[Cooper]

Don't steal my drawings.

[Daniel.]

Well, it has the same engine, that's the most important. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif)

[Guest_Alex (Ghost)_*]

rallyart lancer has the exact sam running gear as the evo just the ECU has been detuned slightly. Easy fix is to get it flashed to evo settings and tada! instant evo LOL

[Andrew.]

old ralliart has also 4wd???? :Uu??

[Mkid]

nice bump guys. lol. I don't mind tho :3

and yeah, I could get like 50 more horsepower with like $25 worth of parts and a retune/flash. lol

[Mkid]

The evo does have some different hardware though. it has a bigger turbo, bigger fmic and a different AWD system

plus more obvious stuff like a wider wheelbase and wider wheels

[Cooper]

Well, you buy the same turbo that hmm, this car has.

[Guest_Alex (Ghost)_*]

ive seen that supra in the flesh. was like "O_O farrkk" and the turbo lol

[Andrew.]

wait wait wait a second it has a flappy paddy gearbox :U?

does it has a clucth?

yes, and yes, twin clutch actually :3

[Mkid]

I'm thinking about doing this to my RA:

(IMG:http://clubralliart.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10139/0920100754c.jpg)

A little EvoX style blacking out. I'd probably leave the emblem chrome though. Not too sure if I would carry it down onto the lip like that or not...

just to refresh your memory, this is how it looks now:
(IMG:http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs041.snc4/34391_440681359354_508514354_5331009_2084335_n.jpg)

[Carly.]

It haz lipstick. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)


Make it black mang.

[Mkid]

all the way down or just the chrome ring?

[Mkid]

(IMG:http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy133/Jorgeluisferro_photos/e6fc4908.jpg)

this would be with just the chrome ring made black...

excuse the wrong color and the tuning on the rest of the car. only focus on the grille (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

[Helmasaur King]

DANGGGGGGGGGGGGGG dude thats a cool ride whered you get it

[Mkid]

craigslist... lol

literally.

[EE8Kev]

It needs LOWER!

[Andrew.]

but cluthc pedal?

yeah only the grill like the second pic u posted

and yeah it needs some sort of stance

do not hellaflush it
and slam the enkeis

[Mkid]

Okay, I'm going to paint the grille and fender trim black. My first mod because it can't hurt the warranty :3

now just need to find time to do it.

Andrew, no clutch pedal. I don't think you could have a pedal with twin clutches... what would that be? two pedals? lol

Once my warranty expires I will do more.

I've ditched the Enkei RPF1 idea... the 18"s look small because of how much lip those wheels have... and 19" wheels are just ridiculous... both in price and fitment.

I'm planning on getting these wheels:

(IMG:http://dudesphotography.smugmug.com/Cars/Torque-on-Detail-Addicts-EVO-X/IMG0108/779736029_JJc9n-M.jpg)

Rota Torques

Basically Work Emotion CR-Kai knock offs, but they come in nicer colors such as the above picture, which is the color I want :3

Those are 18" in the pic and they don't look near as small as the 18" Enkei's because the spokes go all the way to the edge of the lip.

mine won't be that concave though because the ralliart has shallower wheel wells (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

They would look more like this:

(IMG:http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f175/striklymyn69/wheels.jpg)

Flatter, but still nice

They are also a heck of a lot cheaper, like $150 less per wheel, if not more.

I want to get a mild drop, maybe like an inch or something. I'm still looking for comfort and not f**king up my lip on everything, just a nice(er) stance.

[Noodles]

coil overs, and does it have recaro seats?

[Andrew.]

sorry mike my mechanical knowledge is as big as knowing how to change my bike´s flat tyre (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

works look cool
or rotas what eva
the stance that mazda has is cool
it would look beast in the frankenevo

maybe painting the grill trim and the whole lip black idk something like that

and it needs a proper gearbox (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

bongrats

[Mkid]

No Recaros thankfully... every review I saw for them said they were horribly uncomfortable and are unadjustable. Basically would be the kind of seats you would put in at the track only. They said it was a bad idea to put them in a production car, especially one thats supposed to be more practical then the EVO. Good thing it was just an option (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Andrew, I was talking about the flatness of the spokes, not the stance. On the pic of the evo, the rim spokes curve inward. on the mazda3 they are more flat and flush with the outside of the rim.

If I got those wheels, they would look more like the mazda3's wheels because the fenders aren't deep enough to support that much concave. The EVO is a widebody car so you can shove like 9.5 inch wide wheels in there with +20 offset.

[DMC-12]

No no no! keep teh chrome!! The blackout would only really work on a lighter coloured car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/gasp.gif)

[Cooper]

that mazda 3 reminds me of a car a saw with plates 7ORQY I think

(IMG:http://www.boostcruising.com/database/forums/files/post-178202-12875808791305815880.jpg)

i think fitment like that works

look at the first picture above... its done on a car of my color... you don't like it?

[Cooper]

Do it. I like it, buy some CRkai's

[Ben.H]

What's the wheel fitment on your car?

[DMC-12]

look at the first picture above... its done on a car of my color... you don't like it?

I Prefer the chrome tbh, have you got chrome anywhere else?

[Mkid]

not really. there is some chrome over the fenders, but that looks dumb too and I was going to make it black as well. other then that, just the window trim and emblems.

Wheel fitment recommended by tire places for my car:

5x114.3 bolt pattern 18"X8" +48 offset



I would like to get 18X8.5 +40 or +44 offset or something close to that... I might end up with 18X8.5 +48 instead and just use spacers or something because its hard to find offsets between 38 and 48

[DMC-12]

I think you'd have to black out all of the chrome if you were gonna do it

[Daniel.]

Make the trim on the grille and fenders black, make the emblem red, like the old Mitsubishi logos, we had that on our Lancer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif)

[Ben.H]

5.114.3 is the same bolt pattern as the Evo 5, 6 and 7. I know you didn't get them in the USA but surely the wheels off them must show up on eBay from time to time? Just an option

[Mkid]

aren't those all just BBS wheels anyways?

[Mr.Acura-te]

please dont buy rotas (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

and please paint the stuff the right way. dont rattle can (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

[Mkid]

all the guys use plasti-dip. It is super rugged and doesn't chip.

I'm probably going to end up going with the Rotas because they are so much cheaper. even if they don't have as many sizing options, I'm willing to take the hit if I can save like $500

[Ben.H]

aren't those all just BBS wheels anyways?

Nope, Evo 5s and 6s had ones from OZ Racing, dunno about 7. Everyone only bashes Rota because it somehow became the cool thing to do, they aren't even that bad, there's about a million worse brands out there.

inb4brokenrotaphoto

[DMC-12]

(IMG:http://i35.tinypic.com/24dmy5c.jpg)


Oh... right. nevermind me

[Mkid]

Rota was bought out by a different company quite awhile back and have since changed pretty much everything but the fact that they make knock offs of other rims.

Before they were bought out they were known to often be defective which is when everyone started to hate them. They are still trying to live down that bad rep from the previous ownership.

[Mkid]

I take that back... according to this:

http://www.rotawheels.com/hist.shtml

They have always been owned by PAWI... if PAWI only makes rota wheels... why isn't the company just called rota wheels? idk... throws me off.

Either way, they mainly make OEM wheels for a lot of manufacturers and have done so for a long time... so they definitely have experience.

It may have been when they started making replicas of after market wheels instead of following their own designs where things went sour... either way, they seem to have their act together now.

[Andrew.]

rota means broken in spanish LOL

buy some second hand og work wheels

and ben its not a cool thing to insult rota wheels
but is like the same thing chinese people are doing when making cars :S

[Mkid]

Where the heck am I supposed to find used Work wheels? They aren't exactly all over the place. I'd have more luck finding used RPF1s lol

If anything, I'd get a quote for the Rotas I want from the WheelDudes guy on the EvolutionM forums and then take the quote to my local Work distributer and see if they will match the price.

I will probably end up doing that anyways just because the Work distributer is like 10 minutes from my house. Pretty surprising to me! Some of the cars on the Work website are actually cars from the shop near my house!

anyways, If I do get Rotas... I'll be sure not to get these (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

http://www.rotawheels.com/wheels.asp?wheelid=15

They only come in 15"s anyways... thats like the stock steelie wheel size on my old civic! What the heck kind of car did they have that on? a mini?

[Andrew.]

its soo close to your house because its your destiny

OO MIGHTY LORD JEEEBUS

[Cooper]

hahaha. Agree.

[J.red]

just get enkei wheels.

problem solved.

[Cooper]

I like Fiske and 5Zigen, and Konig. I think they are quality, but I havnt looked them up to see so.

[Mkid]

To me, its all pretty much the same s**t. They are all aluminum, there are only so many ways you can cast something... and either way, its only going to make it slightly stronger.

[Mr.Acura-te]

The more you spend on automotive parts technically means the more quality it is.

cost - 80?

(IMG:http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/1602/img05087ep.jpg)

cost - 500

(IMG:http://fifaracing.com/catalog/images/hre540r.jpg)

basically what im saying is.

if you put so much time into earning that money and put quite a bit of money into the car. why cheap out on the rest of it? wheels are pretty important for things other than looking good.
