Mitsubishi Airtrek

[karlous54]

Well the ms is picking up her new car tomorrow.

Somthing different, didnt like the seats in the photos but in the flesh they arnt that bad.

Has radar jammers, parking sensors, reverse camera that pops up in the mirror, boost gauge on the pillar, custom sun roof, tein suspension and a really nice sounding remus exhaust.

Im a little jelous, but at least its a mitsubishi :laugh:

Good choice!!!

Im interested in how it sounds with the Remus fitted.

You will be very surprised with it! Im also interested in the teins - it looks to be a nice height.

Are you able to tell me the size of the tyres when you get it?

[karlous54]

Yeah will take some pics of it tomorrow, getting the cambelt and stuff replaced so might be wed. Pretty sure the wheels are 18's. Not sure about width. Car actually went all right. Not much down low, but once she got going it was great.

I actually think my one is quicker then my vr4 was when it was standard. It's not as quick off the mark but it's not exactly slow either.

Make sure they change the balance shaft belt as well as the cambelt and water pump

That one does look pretty good, apart from the evolution on the rear!

What he said :)

[miller]

I like those wheels...are they 18's?

and agree with Brad.....lose the evolution badge!

[karlous54]

hahah yeah, there are a couple of things i wouldnt mind to alter when she gets her hands on it.

On another note, does anyone have a factory intake for one of these ? just now it has some fancy pod filter on it that we want to take back to standard.

As far as i can make out a standard Evo 7 intake and box should fit.

[karlous54]

Sweet as.

Dealer has just brought a new one for us so all good!

The Dealer has been bloody awesome, looked after everything for us and made it really really easy!

[Ryan]

So Mr Mettam Jr is still in the game then... LOL

His old man used to own Habour City Subaru. :)

[karlous54]

yup he sure is, he owns Auto Marque

Tis a very tidy car matey. :) Hopefully the missus will like it. :)

[karlous54]

Well so far so good. Car is in great condition. Only thing where waiting on is the snorkel for the air box. It goes fine but isnt running right as its just sucking hot air from the engine bay. So once that is sorted we should be sweet as!

Heaps of extra's to figure out in it. Really impressed with it but i still love the VR.

[karlous54]

Hey guys, would anyone be able to help me out. I need the snorkel part for the airbox. Mitsubishi cant supply one for another 3 weeks which is no good. Can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction? Apparently the evo 7 ones fit. cheers
