Changes coming to the Lancer Forum

[matada]

Ok,

I recently purchased a 2002 EVO VII here in Japan, and have been popping in here to see if there is any worthwhile information.

As you all know, there isn't. I feel it is time to change this. I will be a regular here from now on, so I guess we should get a few things straight.

1. No more insulting or flaming posts. There has been a rash of this, and since there have been no Moderators here to fix it, it has gone unchecked. Consider this a warning.

2. I will institute a FAQ section. There are a few members here (very few sadly) who have a plethora of knowhow, and I will be asking you to put your 2 cents in. I will delete any crap that is added and remove the user responsible.

3. This is not a car comparison corner. The Lancer was not designed to beat a Viper. Use the search function to find if your question has already been answered.

4. Any questions for me can be addressed via PM.


Thanks, and I look forward to sharing info with you all from here on.

Finally someone who's serious about his shit!

hey man maybe you can help since your from japan.
I got an evo 8 i think you guys call it there a GSR. I've been looking for advice on how to mod my car. I dont know if you heard of the mr FQ 320 for the uk, im pretty sure you do, but i want it to be mod up just like it. 320 hp on my evo is a reasonable and ideal numbers for me, and most importantly, i dont want my mpg to go down as well. i want my car to be a daily driven. Anyways thanks in advance if you have anything you would recommend.

ohh yeah a lancer can beat a viper.

[Dreamspawn]

No offense to they guys that actully own a lancer and not a Evo but i think the to should be seperated. Sure teh evo is based off the lancer but it is so much advanced/better. Othen than that as for a FAQ i would try looking at some Sites dedicated just to evos and getting a idea maybe going into a collebaration with them on one. Just my 2 cents.

it,s nice of you to volunteer for such duty. thanks. question #1 = do you think a 2002 lancer es,a/t with 42000 miles is worth $6300. in the usa?? thanks again.

Hey, Mark, congrats on the car, they're phat

If you're planning on making any changes to the forum the first one really should be to separate lancers into "Lancer," "Lancer Evolution," and "Lancer Sportback." i found it kind of confusing that the catagories haven't been sub-divided or anything.

I would hop on that if i knew how, but this is my first post... You've got some worthy aims though, and i'll help ya out if ya lemme know how...

I have been on evolution forums for a while now and have a good deal of EVO knowledge from experience. If anyone needs to know anything, just ask. If I don't know it, I will definitely find out.

sweet,you might be able to help me so. I am having a small problem with a loss of boost pressure in my gsr lancer. iknow its not an evo but my little jap friend got it up to230 bhp and it goes like shit off a shovel. its only down 3psi but i don't know much about turbos so any help would be greatly appreciated. its a 95 one 4g93. cd5a.

Since no changes were ever put into place, that I can see, and nobody seems to be keeping watch on the Lancer section. I have volunteered myself to be your moderator... If you have any issues that need to be addressed concerning moderation of this area, please feel free to send me a PM. I will be trying to learn more about Lancers/Evo's as time goes on so that I can help newer members in the future. As of right now, all I know are the basics that parallel the DSM's. So I won't be completely useless.

[hakimitsu]

how about my drifting technique?

[hakimitsu]

i want to know about drifting technique?that you know about that?

[STikiller]

low restriction headers, turbo-back race exhaust,
as long as you dont change the air fuel ratio your mpg wont go down

[RahX]

AFR isn't the only thing that affects MPG. More air in/out means more fuel to keep AFR where it is supposed to be. More efficient does not always mean better mileage.
