Lancers and Lan-Evos| bunta_boi |  Posted: Feb 27 2003, 05:33 PM |
Billy Jean is not my lover ...  Group: Advanced Members Posts: 586 Member No.: 68 Joined: Nov 1st 2002 Location: Update Profile | What distinguishes an Evo from just a regular Lancer? And could one install Evo parts in a regular Lancer? |

Also comes with full body kit, wheels, and a sports interior package, with bucket seats, momo steering wheel. Exhaust is better and engine management is tuned for performance. In theory, you COULD put all that stuff on a normal lancer, but you would probably end up paying more, so you would be better off just getting an Evo, as it would be less hasstle to do, and easier to register adn insure. |

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 104 Member No.: 222 Joined: Feb 2nd 2003 Location: Update Profile | Yeah, it makes me wonder why you call a Lancer a Lancer, and why you call an Lancer-EVO a Lancer-EVO when they are so different. |

Unregistered | Lancers also have extensive strenghtening work done to the body, and several lightweight components. |

still, they share the same body (basically). Also, it helps to improve sales of normal lancers. When people see the Lancer win in rallies, then people want to go out and buy them more, even though its a completely different car. | ||

to my knowledge (i could be wrong) the new Evos use the same base chassis with modifications made to it. | ||

dampachi! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 4,164 Member No.: 177 Joined: Jan 10th 2003 Location: Adelaide, South Australia | dont think so, although it shares many of the same components, eg engine etc. |

IDW Regular Member Group: Members Posts: 210 Member No.: 253 Joined: Feb 19th 2003 Location: vegas | According to Mitsu the Lancer in terms of size is larger than the Mirage but smaller than the Galant. Toyota has TRD(Toyota Racing Development), Nissan has NISMO(NIssan MOtorsports), and Mitsubishi has RalliArt, but does anyone know where the RalliArt name came from? |
