    mirage vs. pro

    I definately thought I was done for. Me and this kid with this good looking mirage went for a run (twice - both with the same results) all he had was a fart cannon and rims. we ended up neck to neck until I hit 4th and left his nose at my passenger side door. I was surprised...but i kinda screwed up my car at the end. (Read in 1st gen. general discussion thread.)
    Thing is, I raced a lancer before and demolished it. Aren't lancers imporved versions of the mirage? Anyone know what those mirage things have for hp? its a '02, with all the power options and ****.
    all i have is intake and exhaust. miata cams and gtx is goin in next month baby.

    Aren't you the same guy who got banned after an arguement about why you were being "targeted" for speeding? And now you are talking about street racing. Whatever bud.

      Mirage's are slow...lol. Watch out for the late 80s early 90s colts/mirages. Extreme sleepers right there. Lots of people swap the 46g3 from the DSM's into them, and they are QUICK!
      Eat ****.

        Lancers started out with 120HP. Even the "OZ Rally" was just emblems and rims and 120HP. Not to mention styling that leaves a lot to be desired. Looks like the guys who designed the back didn't talk to the guys who designed the front, who didn't talk to the guys who designed the sides, etc, etc. New this year is a "Ralli Art" which has 160HP. Then of course there are the Evolutions. In the road tests/comparisons I've read the Lancer is an also ran. It handles so-so, doesn't do anything particularly well, nor particularly poorly. The 120HP version was just a tick behind the Protege LX 2.0 in 0-60. I would assume the 160HP version would win, but you'd still have to look at it in your driveway every morning, which would require an airsick bag. I'm betting 1/2 of them you'll see on the road are Rental Car Company lease returns. My 2 cents worth.

              if the mirage had a 2.0 badge on it, there decent fast(i hate using this word when talking about a 4 banger), when i bought the proto, the mitzu lot was right beside it and the 2.0 mirage was backed up to my protege. There sompin like 120 hp or somping, so they have a little pep.

                    they can run mid 16's, i almost bought a bright yellow OZ rally so i lokked everything up. with intake and catback people have broken into 15's with them. The eclipse (which i bought instead) runs a 17.5-18 depending on the driver. even the toyota prius and the honda hybrid run under an 18. there is no car on the road running above an 18. (new car anyways)

                    i raced an 03 oz rally with a girl who was quite the good driver, and i beat her by about a foot. this was when my car was stock.

                      some dodge colts came with the 4g63 in them from the factory. i saw one in the junk yard. remember, mirage's are pretty light cars. the lancer is just the glorified version.
                      i hate being broke!

                          It's about time somebody picked up on my comment. I guess none of these guys ever had the "pleasure" of dealing with this guy.

                            I wasn't banned for that reason. I was banned for "threatening" (?) someone. and i in particular wasn't "targeted" for speeding. typical people like me are. I never said I dont street race. and if thats your car in your signature and you're saying you don't either i'd say you have a rice mobile then.

                              lets not get into a flame war. but street racing is dumb. we are all guilty of it once in a while. but dont whine when you have to accept the consaquneces
