My 1981 Lancer 2000 Turbo HELP
Discussion
Hi everyone at PH
Jez here, great to join in with like minded on this great motoring site.
I am proud owner (for approx 30 yrs) of VRO 414 W. Colt Lancer 2000 Turbo (Black)
see profile for picture taken last year when I started restoration.
To be honest this is cry for help! I have had a lot done on the car so far but even
with help from Mitsubishi/ guys on the MLR register and my restorers. I am starting to
hit a brick wall with a few parts.
Like: Front coil Springs/All brake parts/discs/pads/hoses/Rear Shocks/Fuel Pump
All these rather critical for a car on the road!
Any comments good/bad/and advice would be very welcome. I will also post this to the
Japanese car section.
Thanks for your time, look forward to hear any news useful to this project.
Regards Jez

Hi tex
Thank you very much for your post/reply I have been in touch with Gaz Shocks already just need to get my struts,
rear shocks and front springs to them ....see what they can do.
Did you mean Mr Auto as in ...mister-auto.co.uk? have found their site and will need to pass on part numbers before
they happy to send parts.
I have had all my calipers reconditioned and think I have a lead on some rear pads, Front ones still difficult/impossible.
My restorers are not happy skimming the discs as they are quiet rusty so I am def on the look out for new ones.
Kevin in Brighton Mitsubishi has been fantastic. Owe him a few beers!!
Your car looks amazing, mine is bit tatty on the outside but have had all corners,floors sills etc repaired underneath to get
it MOT'd asap. Just want to drive it again.
Can't find you in the MLR register do you have a different address there? Mine is the same jez414 as here.
My Chassis No A176A00400201 (NTR6) and Model 013B09 Not sure if they are O's or zero's Strange mine is a W reg
and yours a Y if yours is older?? I do know most of the History of mine from when it was Managers Car/demonstrator at
Cople Mitsubishi near Bedford.
Be great to meet up one day when its finally running....? and help with sourcing any other spares together for a better
deal maybe. Have talked to dangerous before on the MLR site.
Will catch up soon, and thanks again for the help and pointers.
Regards
Jez
