    Hello!

    I have been relating with Street Unit a lot lately... I dont know if you guys have noticed, but they were the hosts of the Florida"No Snow" Cruise. Which was a huge success! you guys should check out the pictures and such from the event...

    They are a huge respectable company known mainly in the mazda world. They retail parts for all the brands, and they have their own parts as well. In the past few years, they have been known for the excellent quality, fast and awesome service, and unbeatable prices...
    This past saturday, i had the privilege to sit down and have dinner with the owner of Street Unit.... He is an awesome guy and he is all about helping car enthusiasts like us.. I talked about our cars and about the big demand for parts and little answer from aftermarket manufacturers. Although we are very happy with what we have already from RRM, SpeedCorps, Injen, WORKS and others manufacturers, I think that all of you guys agree with me: we need and want more parts for our cars!

    One of their famous parts are the engine mounts... they make an awesome engine mount for several cars, and the owner is positive about building one for our cars! we only need one to feel a performance change, and that one can be manufactured by them.. here is a picture of the one for a mazdaspeed3:

    As you can see its a billet solid aluminum mount with a solid bushing

    The owner of Street Unit would be more than happy to make them for our lancers... this would help for the following:

    - Eliminate Wheel Hop
    - Torque Recover from the drivetrain
    - Torque Response

    The installation is really quick.. with the correct tools, it shouldn't take over an hour... The price should be anywhere from 100-130... and it would be a mod that you would really feel the difference...
    Remember, this is not even produced. It takes around a month or to to have this ready, but the interest has to be shown first... if this is successful, there are many many other parts they can manufacture for us and be part of our fabulous vendors.. if you guys want to check them out to see how they work and help your decision, visit www.streetunit.com

    so what do you guys thinks? would you guys be interested? sounds like an awesome plan!

    some of you guys are not relizing that alot of parts form the evo and gts will fit the RA.

    If i get either the RA or EVO im putting my RRM pully on it for testing to see if any improvements.

    Also i belive the short shifter will also work on the GSR 5speed.

    engine mounts should be the same and other minor things.

    What are you talking about CF? :?

    about the price and more info, it only depends on the amount of people that i get... if i can get around 20 people, im estimating the price could be like $120 shipped... thats guesstimating... i just need people for it...
