    ^ haha so true man. Can't wait to see the progress on the car def off to an awesome start! Nobody automatically knows everything about stance when they buy a car lol. It takes time and lots of experimentation and I can tell you are workin' hard at it. Don't worry, the hard work will pay off!

Modifying a car is a learning process, and though the Lancer isn't 100% perfect, you're off to a good start in a lot of areas. Sure, you may not be on $4k wheels, but the ones you have on there look good. I'll never have an issue with building a car on a budget; and you seem to be coming around as far as taste goes.
    thanks, I appreciate it but ****** gonna **** though. I really dont want to argue with them cuz I know what they're talking about but then again they could of used better criticism.

    oh and to the '******' "The ruthless are untamed beasts, devouring and terroizing the vulnverable. They dont know of their works, for addiction runs deep in their souls and yielding to their actions is impossible. One to deal with the beasts must have impertubable ground, for argueing is like feeding a fire. Agitation of the beasts is a fragile matter and must be dealt with impeccable words of actions...."

    This sentence alone screams 'ungrateful brat' to me.


    Apart from that, the car brings a nice starting point to the table. I'm not a fan of the wheels. You need some legit wheels in ~10x18 for example, that would be tits.The 17s would only work if you'd put that thing really on the ground.

    History: I got the car from my mom, she made me a promise when I was a kid that if I did well in high school, she'll get me a car I wanted. Too bad the market went down and this was all she could afford. I've looked at other cars before this one but it was new and she wanted me to drive a semi-new car, not fast and made from japan. I could of got a RSX, Civic, or integra like every Filipino kid I know but my mom knew I loved Evos so we picked up this Lancer, for it looked similar to the Evo X and was affordable. 10k worth. I told my mom we didnt have to get a new-ish car but she insisted cuz I worked hard for it. I could of easily got something else but to my mom it meant a lot that she got the car for me.

    Yo Kielan, you lil Filipino kid

    car looks good, needs to be lower though. dont worry about the hat-ers , just work your way up to nice wheels, everyones gotta start somewhere.

    I got D2 RS coils. and I got rid of the stickers on the back bumper and 2 on the front, it was tacky and the stickers on my fender was cuz my sis hit me and i'm waiting till I can get it repainted. and if i get bigger tires like 235's, i'll still rub like crazy even with my fenders rolled and I had a photographer from canibeat roll them for me and he said it himself as well. anyways i dont want cholo wheels

    I dont mind. I get it all the time, I literally didnt know anything about fitment of wheels 5 months ago. I didnt even know what offset was, it was that bad.
    I'm trying to get rid of the XXR's and looking at Rota G-Force or Torque wheels, but still skeptical just cuz they're rotas. I know they're not as great as Advan, Enkei, BBS, SSR, Works, Raderwerks, Volks, etc.
    But they're better than the XXRs
