Hey I have a 1996 Lancer GLXi which I am thinking of selling to boost my cash to get my skyline would you be interested? i'm only looking for like 3.5 (just had service, new tyres + whhel alignment and rego) it drives great so my close friends who have driven it say (one is a mechanic apprentice) but i'm looking to start my skyline project and yeha won't need the second car... I know it's none of the ones you mentioned above but it could be a cheaper car until you find something suitable so you have a car in the mean time.

let me know if it's a possibility so I can borrow the company hi-res camera and take some pics for ya.

I live in south Australia, if I wanted to bring the car back here would it have to undergo any sort of inspection on change of state and/or would it pass these tests? (not a problem just things to be prepared for as most mods I put on it will be illegal)

Hi,

Just to let you know I currently drive a red series 1 Mitsubishi 380 VRX as a work/Hire car.

Trying to sell it as we speak... and trade up to an R34

Iv never had a problem with it, however it eats fuel and has huge traction control issues due to it being front wheel drive.

Another issue about the 380 is its size, its near imposable to reverse park and parallel park even with parking sensors . The car also auto tunes the gear ratios as to your driving style, which is a good thing if you travel long distances but for city driving it can get very sluggish and unresponsive.

The car cost 36K because I had the sports suspension fitted and a sun roof installed however now 2 years later its only worth 22K.

On the upside the car is smooth to drive and will do 0-100 in 6.8 seconds + sounds great.

Anyway good luck with the sale

Mike

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
