I can't wait.....It sucks that it's coming around May, but at the same time it's better for me. I get a higher down payment saved up, plus I can buy AMS line-up as it releases :o


From EvoM;
I have official word today that the MR has been validated and on track for roughly May delivery. This can finally put an end to all the rumors swirling around.

The hold up was a final flash update for the ecu/transmission. After tough scrutiny from Mitsu Japan, it has been released

Exactly why I'm buying the Mods before the car. After I make monthly payments+insurance, I probably wont have much free money for mods.

So you see why this delay is good for me. More time to save up.

Yup, first 2 weeks if everything goes right. lol, and you guys scared me out of the Tenzo's, but I'm still keeping my eyes on them as a fall back if I can't get the Advans.

If I can get Coilovers for around $1,500 then I'll do it no question....

I agree 100%. All this money is me dipping into a long-time savings. I should only come out of pocket $3-4k and then I'd be done modding for a long time.

You DO know that the tq limits on the SST is 340ish to the flywheel?

Yes, and I'm sure the aftermarket knows this as well and wont release all this power without offering supporting mods.

Hey Sebastien why don't you wait until more X's are tuned and see what kind of results come out of different stages of upgrades. You might run into an issue of dumping hella money into mods which may not really do much.

I know, I guess I'm just getting a little excited. :(

I spent all kinds of money for parts for my VIII that I never got to install, so I'm blindly anxious to just get something and mod the shit out of it.

I put spinnerz and a SRI on my lawnmower. I'm up 0.0002 whp :oops:

Yeah but just wait it out, dude! Maybe wait for more of a market to grow so you can pick and choose the best for your particular goals.

so you're going to upgrade the transmission? because if you think about it, 340 to the crank does not give you very much room to play at all...especially since the X's are responding so well to mods.

whats a stock X's hp/tq numers, advertised from mitsu?

I'm really concerned that SST is going to be FTL.

+1 it'll be a fragile tranny. i think the best bet is to keep the car stock if you're going to own an SST.
