If you get the chance/$, try out an ST205 instead. I've been in a couple of different GT4s (185, 185 group A and 205) and the 205 is the only one that I'd look into personally. The earlier ones do seem very sluggish, sloppy and just, well, boring! The 205 uses a lower final drive, better matched turbo, better heads, and thousands of other improvements, which fix up that nasty hole in the performance, plus they have the strength to put up with a lot more aftermarket fiddling. Unfortunately, when the 205 was released, it was around the same time as the WRX first appearing in Australia, and at around double the price, you can imagine which become a hit and which car most of Australia have never heard of...

Bang for buck the lancer is a top piece of gear, just remember they are a bit fragile in a few areas!

That's my thoughts on the issue anyways Very Happy
