Pretty good price, 5 speed MTX,FULL POWER, AC, CD Player, Remote Keyless with a sticker of 14,400. ENGINE is 130 HP DOHC I4. I have been looking around for a good tranny deal and right now I am coming up with nothing. After final look a berring came ripping thru the caseing after reaking havec in the tranny. 2002 Mitsui Lancer-Black MTX.

I hate to step on toes, but just because it says 4cyl does not mean it BLOWS. There are some really nice 4cyl engines. 2002 Mitsui Lancer-Black MTX.

He pissed me off and i followed him and he was going 100 mph and I just down shifted and blew by him. I played with him on interstate teasing him because he thought he was bad. They die off after 100mph thank god it no evo11 Remind me of a civic. :rolleyes: 99 SVT #198 Blk/blue Grizzly clutch Phantom Grips K&N open Resonator removed BAT 22mm 15.4 @89mph
