Welcome to the Mitsubishi-Forums.com. Here is a basic introduction on how to use this site to its fullest potential.

Starting with your profile, fill out everything on your cars specifications, that way users can see what kind of answer you are looking for. Remember to post your cars transmission type, automatic, or manual. When you ask about engine mods, this is not always a necessary detail, but does help if you include it according to some applications.

Now what you do is scroll to the top of any of our forum pages. There is a small gray tool bar with dark gray writing. It has your member name and has the following links:
(my controls) (view new posts) (my assistant) (board rules) (new messages) and (resend validation Email). On the far right of this tool bar there is a SEARCH engine. You can either type in a topic you wish to find, or you can click the "my assistant" link and it will bring up a new window with two search engines. One is "search posts"; the other is for "search help." If you’re looking for a specific idea I would use the search posts engine and type a general topic and then take your time reading up on as many things as you can. Just because you can not find the information you are looking for with your first search doesn’t mean its not there. For example, your reverse lights are not working so you type in “reverse lights” you get nothing. Your next try should be “back up lights”.

Remember that if you wish to find it again without searching, be sure to click the bookmark tab on the top of the topic page. If you wish to be informed about replies to your posts click the track this topic tab as well. You will get a message in your assistant page that says 170 or something like that, new posts. 1, 2, or 3 post is in reply to a topic you started or a post. You can also choose an email for post replies and what not.

Once you have read up, and researched everything that has already been covered. If you still don't are unsure of how to solve your problem, or wish for opinions or advice on the subject, you may start a new thread asking or just state your question in an old thread.

Ignorance and failure to search before posting tends to suffer from the wrath of the veteran users of this board. It gets real old when the same question is asked three times in one week by three different people. Remember that when you cross a topic post thats locked/closed so that no one can add replies it is because the questions have been answered in full. These are good topics to read up on!

Best of luck, and again - welcome to the site.

Thank you,
Mitsubishi-Forums Administration

Everyone!

If you have a modified/want to modify your vehicle, and there is a problem that you need help with, it might be helpful to list your mods in your signature so everyone can easily see them. You don't have to but it will help you get the quickest resolution of your problem because people don't have to ask, "What mods do you have?" before they can start helping out.

If you choose to do so, please be clear on what mods are INSTALLED, and what mods you WANT TO install so we don't get them confused.

Thanks and Enjoy!!!

Hi All,

I am happy to be here and look forward to getting some advice down the line. The 2006 Outlander I just bought was kind of an pleasant accident because I initially was looking at a Honda Element, then moved to Subaru Forester, but the Outlander with low milage and 10yr 160k warranty was a no brainer and it looks so nice!

Hey everybody. My name is Matt and I live in Sacramento, CA. I have a 2003 eclipse gs and I LOVE IT! I'm still working on customizing it but it's coming along nicely.

Hola to all here at the Mitsi forum.

Married, old guy reporting in from his mountain hideaway, about 25 crow fly miles inland from Alicante.
I did too many things to list during my working life, but spent the last 14 of them running my own VW workshop in London, England.
The sunshine beckoned and I've been enjoying it here for the last 20 years.
An 02 model, 1.6, gasoline Mitsi Space Star filled the bill as a replacement for an old Opel Astra three years ago, mainly due to ground clearance on our unmade camino.
A 92, 1.4 Fiat Tipo is our second car, it doesn't have any electronics and so it gives me no headaches.

I just recently joined the forum, my name is Nate and I have a 2009 Lancer Es. I have had the car for about 6 months and it definitely a good car for daily driving. As of right now it is stock, I am looking to get some H&R springs within the next few months to lower it and also get an axle-back exhaust. Once I find a decent place to order them I also want to get an HID conversion get for the headlights/fog lights and also get my tail lights tinted. The only thing I have really done as far as anything goes with the car was painting some of the engine cover pieces and getting a sub and amp installed.

I have a number of pictures on Flickr:

Hello everyone,

My name is Jorge, and I'm from sunny Costa Rica

I've had my Lancer GT 2009 for a about a year and I love it. I've been reading the forums for a while, and finally decided to join. You can really find a lot of great info here. I have some basic general mechanics and automotive electronics knowledge, although I work at a call center right now as part of the IT department...

Been thinking about doing some small mods to the car, but things here are too darn expensive... So we'll see. Still <3 my car

Hello everyone, I'm a remorseful owner of a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS. Try as I might to keep this car maintained on my own, there is simply more to fix that I don't know how to do. Anyways, I've arrived at this forum to try and see if I can find some help in keeping my Eclipse running, and to see if any other Eclipse owners share my problems.

Sweet emoticons.

Hey guys (and girls?)

New owner of a manual 09 Lancer VR sportback.
Umm. Those not in Australia, i think VR is basically an ES with a lot of extras. Australian models go ES, VR, VR-X, with VR-X being the same as GTS.
So it has things like 6 stacker stereo, tweeters, cruise control, auto wipers/headlights, side skirts, spoiler, alloys and probably some other stuff, but with the 2.0L engine.

Im only 19 so im very proud, lol.

Got a friend to help me with putting in footwell neons, they're orange to match the dash lights. Not quite finished making it neat yet though. Out of money now but i'll be hanging around for other ideas.

me. Just a quick post to say hello to everyone on the forum. Looking forward to browsing through all the sections and improving my Mitsubishi experience. I currently own a Carisma and a Shogun. Regards - Rainchinchilla

i have been having my 2006 lancer se for two years now, but i have been busy bustin' knuckles with other vehicles like my 1986 big block ram charger and 1989 lincoln town car. so this is my first venture into tuners. im from a really small town and no one is really in to cars like this, so any help would be greatly appreciated. all i have done is put a short ram intake, and i am looking for a header and catback exhaust, any help?

What's up guys?

Hi all, Ive joined this forum so I could get advice as I need it on my 98 Magna Advance wagon.

Hi everyone,

My name is Anthony, im new to this forum, but from browsing through the various sections already, i can tell it's a qaulity place to come for info and advice! I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, which is smack dab in the middle of Canada and i drive a 2006 Lancer Ralliart. I haven't done any modifications to it yet, but i plan to in the near future. Im looking forward to getting and sharing some good advice, and meeting new car enthusiests!

[ Hi all im new to this site and just wanted to know if anyone knows what is causing my 5th gear to pop out and go back into neutral when im going along the road

sometimes it grinds into first gear when you first start the car but after that its fine but when you are going along in 4th gear and change into 5th gear release ur foot off the clutch accelerate it just pops back into neutral from 5th does anyone know what could be causing this,? i have a mitsubishi space wagon 1991-1992 1.8 16v

your help is much appreciated thanks mark

Just bought my first Mitsubishi and can't wait to put some money into it.

What's up guys? I hope everything is well for everyone. I took it upon myself to save up so I can purchase myself a new car in 2011. I use to drive years ago but with trying to go to school & pay the bills at my old place, I had no choice but to give up something. It's been 8 years since that day & now I am on a mission to land me a 2010 or 2011 Lancer GTS. It will depend on what happens next year. It took me a long time to come to that conclusion but I just live the pricing & package options that come with the car. I can pretty much say that it's an unbeatable deal.

About me, my name is Edwin. I'm a Network Administrator here in NYC & I enjoy dealing with computer hardware & technology. I'm a huge geek but I do not have the look of one. It's confusing when you know my roots & the neighborhoods that I grew up in while living in NYC. I will admit that I am not much of a car buff. Not on the level of the community members here for sure. I am willing to learn though & this why I chose to join this forum. I want to do a lot of research & learn the ins & outs of the Lancer model of Mitsubishi. As mentioned, I will buy it so I won't have to deal with the headaches that comes with leasing. I hope I get to know the many great people of this community. I probally won't post much but I'll be logged on often doing my Homework .

A few images.

Hello All, just a quick note to say HI

As it says, I'm a newbie to the forum, recently changed from my 2001 Lancer 1.3glx to a 1998 Galant 2.0. I loved my Lancer but we meet a ditch after some ice redirected us. I love the Galant, especially for those long runs down the country.

Anyhow, I'd better head off and find the answers I came here for, Gotta do the timing and balance belt so would like to read up on it first.

Frank,
Ireland.

Hi All, I'm a novice car junkie (dreamer) and am finally gonna start the journey of learning how to work on and mod my car. I'm sure I'm gonna need some help along the way and from what I've read. You all seem very helpful.

Heyy guys

just posting a thread to say a quick hello

im jesse i am on my learner i own a 1993 nimbus lol ill post piccys soon :P: laters

Hello everyone, I haven't introduced myself yet so I decided to go ahead and do that. I have two Mitsubishi's, 2006 Lancer ES and a 1991 Eclipse GST. The Eclipse is under the knife right now, engine rebuild and we have rusted out chassis here and there. The engine is almost ready to put in and we are just waiting for the welder to come in for the front end. The Lancer was a car that I had to buy at the time. It was cheap and my last car just wasn't cutting it. In 3 years we have put 100k miles on it and it still runs well. All we have done to that one is cut the second cat off and run new pipe and a sports muffler. We just ordered the headers yesterday because of the check engine light keeps coming on. Well I guess you all know my history now so That is my story what is yours?

Hi from Australia,
I drive Mitsubishi 1993 Lancer GLXi coupe automatic and I have just found this site, actually few days ago.
Could not post as waited for confirmation that I registered.
With bots it is much harder now, but suppose way of life in new century.

I am quite happy with my Lancer, what surprises me is that when I wash my car, roof seems to flex a bit, which to me indicates that sheet meatal is quite thin.

1800 engine is good with 2 people inside and with 5 feels like not enough, luckily most of the time there are 2 or 3 of us.
This is why I was thinking about 2.2 litre engine.

Car is white, but gets quite hot inside during summer.
I was wondering if cars that run in hotter parts of the world should not have smaller windows or maybe double or tripple glazed.

Got tinting done, but in Australia NSW there are some restrictions on how dark tinting can go, also would like to see through too on darker days.

Hi again and I will probably go back to reading as here is so much good information.

Hi everyone,

Just another newbie introducing himself... My name is Kane and i live in New Zealand. Lol I drive a 1995 Rvr Super Sports Gear,( still tring to get my head around all the different names of the cars on the site..) which is a 4wd 2l turbo. Rather unsuspecting to the untrained eye haha I think it possibly has an evo 2 or 3 engine but has a down graded ECU and TD04 turbo instead of a TD05 etc. If anyone could tell me more specific specs on the engine, I would appreciate it.
I wont ramble on since its my first post, but i do enjoy reading stuff this site lol

Cheers Kane-o

Just though it would be proper to introduce myself before asking a lot of questions. My name is Mike and I have a 1994 Montero SR with a little over 100K on the clock. I've owned it for over 10 years but its been sitting in my garage for the past five years so its time to get it back on the road. Hoping I can get some help with this on this forum.

Hello, I'm new to all this and not very mechanical minded.

My 2003 Spacestar 1.3 manual has developed very loose gears, it goes into gear ok but has lots of play in each 1.
Is there a quick fix for this?

Thanks.

Ricky

Hi..I recently bought a 2009 Lancer GTS. I love it but I'm having a difficult time finding a CAI. HELP!

Hello everyone.............just thought i would say hi to all the members on here. I just pick up my 2010 lancer ralliart sportback this last friday and im love it

if your gdi is dieseling(pinking- making a clicking sound)under acceleration or stuttering at steady speeds it is probably your cylinder head that needs a de-coke £1000+ at your local dealer £700+ at your local garage,mines been doing it for a while and the usual fuel additives haven't worked my next step is a product called powerboost by ecotek and if it works i'll let you know in the meantime greetings and salutations from the uk
