FunkyR's new beast
Hi guys,
After 5 years of owning my DC5 Integra Type R I've decided to move on....
I must say it's been great knowing such a great bunch of people who liked modifiying cars for performance rather than argueing that 19" chromies with under car neons and phat ass decals arent as nice as 20" chromies with LED tyre valve caps......
Moving onto my next car was always going to be hard. My DC5R became such a quick well handling car that my expectations were very high. So as I couldnt afford my 997S, F430, Aston or a Boxster S I've crossed to the 'dark side' and bought a.....
lancer *gasp*

It's a 06 EVO IX with the performance pack (non adjustable bilstein sussy, BBS lightweight forged rims 8.05kg 17x8).
I optioned the vortex generator (but didnt get the dual phase plasma cannon as it was out of stock).
My initial impression is that the suspension is about the same in temrs of comfort as a stock DC5R. The interior is...... well..... lancer-ish (in the showroom I looked inside a lancer VRX and the dash was almost identical). The turning circle is as bad as Cher in a G string. The power and handling.... well I guess I dont need to say much there.....
Comes with stock almost everything..... GPS security with remote immobilisation and an emergency panic button that puts you through to the 24hr call center, stock oil cooler, carbon fibre rear wing, brembos, ACD - tarmac/gravel/snow, AYC, EBD, LSD, rear under diffuser, aluminium bonnet with bonnet vent, leather/suede recaros etc..... doesnt come with cruise control though.... the stereo also sucks more than Paris Hilton did on that infamous video.....
I just have an agonising 1500-2500kms to look forward to.....
