Looks mean, these cars do have some sweet lines, found myself liking them more once I got my sunny coupe. To be honest I'm more impressed with the house/wife combo at 21. Clocking life there son.

i do reckon mitsubishi cocked up the rear end though....

the rears too sudden and flat, so thinking of complimenting it with a small duck bill spoiler maybe???? just enough to make it look more fastbackish like a gto

and the angle from rear quarter up to the bumper is too steep so even if its on the bumpstops it still looks like a 4wd if your looking at it from behind

it annoys the hell outta me haha

cheers for that man, its cos i dont spend 4 nights a week on the turps like the rest of my mates haha

just caught up on your thread.

 

wow man! top work    that engine setup looks like it was made to go in there.

 

noice!

yeah i wanted it to look period rather than blue silicone hoses everywhere ha

it will be all braided line eventually with a decent stainless cold air box

Sweet car alright! Have seen you post the odd pic on the mitsi pages on fb before. 

Good things take time so 10 years into it isnt bad, I'm 8 years with my ex lancer and it's still nowhere close to how I want it to be, keep getting distracted with other cars

I think a lot of people are in the same boat re having kids / life getting in the way of projects. Glad to see this is set to get some more attention!

I've had my lancer over 10 years now, 3 kids a wedding and now some serious house renovations later its getting closer to where i want it

Hi I'd be interested in anyone's celeste project car. 

I owned an 82 gsr back in the day. Had rear louvres and front air dam. Added twin carbs from a galant which made a real difference to performance. 

Anyhow if anyone has a project celeste let me know. I'd prefer celestes with the rectangular front lights.
