If the wheels look unfamiliar, it's because they're one-off custom creations by ADF. The 20-inch 3-piece billet aluminum wheels are custom-machined and feature an aluminum fluted center cap. The hammered-look of this retro-themed truck is made possible by an Air Lift Company complete digital air ride kit. The adjustable suspension also makes it easier to get the matching Ruckus on and off the xTruck.

"We used the bottom of the stock rear seat and fabricated a top portion to make a bench seat for the cab. Then we rewrapped it with white vinyl and made matching door inserts and white perforated vinyl headliner," Brandon states. "The upper portions of the dash and door panels were painted to replicate how old trucks looked back when everything was metal." They even went as far as to modify an NRG flip-up steering wheel hub to house a Mooneyes white vinyl steering wheel. The finishing touch comes in the form of a hand-blown glass shift knob that also happens to be color-matched to the vehicle.

To upgrade his already potent, 4G63, Michael installed all the major HKS bolt-ons he could get a hold of. This included, but was not limited to, a HKS Hi-Power exhaust, racing suction intake, HKS Kansai intake box and intercooler with piping.

"The entire build process took a great deal of time and energy, not just on my part but from a good friend of mine, Juan Marquez. There were a lot of late nights, a little bit of pain and an angry wife but it was all worth it in the end! To think that I started this build a year ago when my wife told me I could have any car I want as long as it was a 4-door, and being a proud member of Team Hybrid now, it's truly an unbelievable experience."

2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback Ralliart Front View
Here at Super Street, we've never really marched to the beat of our own drums when it comes to building project cars. Through the years our staff has taken on most of the Honda and Acura makes, turned out a S-chassis Nissan or two, and oddly enough, had a Skyline and Super GT Supra. OEMs have turned to us many times, too, for our input and for 2010, we're partnering up with Mitsubishi to see if we can turn out their new Lancer Sportback Ralliart in pure SS form.

You might be thinking, "Why not a Evo X GSR?" - well, we asked ourselves that, too. Despite a more powerful engine configuration and tuned suspension/brake package, the GSR already has plenty of aftermarket support for it; the Ralliart - and more specifically the Sportback version - is newer and since it's one step down from the Evo means it needs a little help, especially if it wants become the type of car its older brother is. All is not lost, however, because the Ralliart is still a performer. Using a different induction configuration and single scroll turbo on this 4B11, it puts out very well at 237hp (about 50hp less than the GSR) with 253lb-ft, and essentially uses the same drivetrain found in the Evo 9 - not to mention it's blessed with a Twin Clutch-Sportronic Shift Transmission (TC-SST), similar to the style (not the exact unit) the current Evo X MR has. That means you can drive it like an "auto" or use the paddle shifters for manual operation; we love both. TC-SST also gives us two different driving modes - Normal and Sport - and can even be adjusted for three driving surfaces: Tarmac, Snow and Gravel.

So what's the game plan? Quite simple. We're going to max-out performance for the stock engine configuration first - maybe a new hardpipe kit, air filter, downpipe, exhaust and ECU re-flash; then we'll see if the rumors of trading out to a GSR manifold/turbo and re-flash for 300hp is true. We want this to be a primo street car that can handle light track time, so we'll be setting it up with coilover dampers and stiffer sway bars as product development draws near. One area that will seriously be addressed is the brakes; the Ralliart suffers from not having the same Brembo calipers the GSR and MR models have and we've been told by Mitsubishi that they're not compatible, so we're exploring performance upgrades from larger caliper kits to new rotors, pads and lines. And since this is a Sportback, we'll be looking towards European wagon styling to see how we can set this Lancer apart. Ralliart Japan, anyone? Slammed? Phat ass wheels? You know this! The options really are open and endless at this stage, and you can bet that we'll be working with key manufacturers and tuners to do this car right.

We are seriously inviting you to keep up with our Sportback Ralliart build-up as we're hoping to make this the most unique and best project we've ever done. It'll showcase our expertise and prove to some that you don't need the top of the line car to be a winner.

On a normal month-to-month basis, there will come a time during that month where we writers get our "monthly gift". Women call it their menstrual cycle while we writers call it "work". Similar to the female persuasion, "work" causes cramps as well and we, too, get moody. What causes this emotional roller coaster? Well, typical protocol at work is when we receive our assignments of what cars to write about, and that is usually accompanied by a tech sheet. These tech sheets are basically our keys to everything we need to know about the cars we write about.
