southside crew,yea man, let us know how it works out.

janfar,i myself want to know this.

currently i find my gears going in a lil hard, not as hard as b4 since i change my Master cylinder but still a lil hard until i run the car a lil hard. then it goes in smooth.

^ typical of early model lancers. notchy when the oil is fairly cold till it warms up.

MISHI,any way of solving this? different type/grade of oil? what do you recommend?

Death-Row · Posted: Mon Sep 07, 2009 1:53 am Post subject:

also, im interested in doing over my exhaust, what are the differences between brand name systems (HKS etc) and making one here locally in a shop and just welding on the HKS barrel/tip after. other than price.

hmmm, any info on shipping an exhaust system from japan? nengun says ill have to organize my own shipping since its too big for them or something.

Why don't you browse the mitsubishi lancer register foruma and see?

You may find places recommended to buy CD/E 9A systems...

MISHI,thnx for the links. will send them along with some other sites some emails on shipping. im getting the systems, just shipping is a prob since some sites say its too large and i will have to organize the shipping on my own. Mad

How much will it cost in total for the exhaust including shipping.

Like i said, I did mine locally and the difference. The guy i went to has a lot of experience in what he is doing. To each his own eh but i think the locally will be much more feasable. I have heard on many occasions on the 321 and LR forums of guys buying ready made kits and having to still modify them in some small way of the other to make it fit perfect without touching. I would not like to spend 5000TTD on a ready made brand name system only to have it cut in some places to make it work.

MISHI · Posted: Tue Sep 08, 2009 10:02 pm Post subject:

Well if it costs 650 sterling which is $6825.00 TT (which i find is crazy)

Then you have to factor the 30% duty in this case $2047.50

Then you have to add VAT 15% to that which is say $1330.88

Then usually a package like that is about 20kgs which would be about $ 840.00

So your looking at total $11043.38

Which is honestly ridiculous as in the first place, UK prices MUCH more then US...

But that would be the WORST CASE scenario as someimes depending on the box size & on the good graces of the officer dealing with your package, the prices could be less...

not disagreeing with you at all... agreed on the fact that it is a good option, but i'm just working on the basis of longevity and ease of install (and removal) for cases such as removal of your gas tank...

Personally if i could do it all over again with 9630 or the day i decide to buy an AWD gas tank, I would go with the bolt on item.

I am sure that the prices can be found cheaper...

Death-Row · Posted: Wed Sep 09, 2009 2:07 am Post subject:

what about shipping the item to a "yard" where a friend is packing a container for trinidad? domestic shipping in japan cheap?

i need to do over my exhaust, wanna do something good and done.

MISHI · Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 12:04 pm Post subject:

no it's a valid point...not much to say after that. once they can do that properly here it's all well and fine.

Death-Row · Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 12:59 pm Post subject:

janfar,well that should be a good thing, that everyone quiet Laughing

well so far, my car has been doing well, shifter probs down to a minimum. basically, just enjoying the car for now as a daily driver. i still wanna do the poly bushings tho since my current bushings are GONEEE

janfar · Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 2:50 pm Post subject:

See if yuh could get W2J to bring them down as a set... soldave stop answering emails completely so I aint know whats going on with him.

janfar · Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 4:21 pm Post subject:

Well, he get banned. I was communicating with him via email and not PM. He is still on geekmapped (http://www.geekmapped.com/forums/index.php) and frequents the DSM sites.

Death-Row · Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 11:41 pm Post subject:

janfar,yea, w2j said to bring in my stuff once i take it out from the car and he'll compare it to what he has, if its not in stock, i guess he can bring in a set for me. just time. past few months was spent on the car, everyday doing something, so im taking a lil rest. will start back next month. my starter playin the ass now too. Confused

yea, soldave not responding to msn messenger messages or emails.

janfar · Posted: Sat Sep 12, 2009 10:21 am Post subject:

If hes getting poly bushes i will definitely be taking a set.

I need to install an external to stop all the mad spiking when i get back though, that priority right now. I was thinking about modding the original exhaust manifold with a flange on top to take the wastegate then plumb it down to join the down pipe. That means pulling down my exhaust again, for the millionth time...
