@sanctifier... thanks the correction,
i was able to read an article that the lancer ex 2000 homologation series that was used in the lakes rally has 276hp
No correction my friend, I'm no expert... just a small addition to general Lancer 'EX' info.
Your 'spec' may be for the "works" cars. Mine are definately for OEM (stock) models.
Can you answer a few questions please?... Can you post a link to that article on the Lancer EX Turbo 'homolgation specials'?
Maybe it has more info about

's "works" Lancer EX rally prototypes.
Do you know if a prototype was fitted with the Starion's Independant Rear Suspension system?
I'm not sure but I think I read/heard that one or two did. Can you verify?
My Dad's Galant Turbo has "Starion" IRS. I intend to swap it into my rwd 1800 GSR along with a 4G93T ('96 4wd 1800 GSR)
+ 5-speed ('85 1800 GSR + adapter plate.) So any info that I can get will be a big help.
These are the comparative dimensions...

......................... Galant Turbo ......... Lancer 2000 Turbo
Wheelbase.......... 2,530 / 99.6 ........... 2,440 / 96.0
TRACK: Front..... 1,375 / 54.1 ........... 1,365 / 53.8
TRACK: Rear...... 1,385 / 54.5 ........... 1,355 / 53.4
With a rear-floor swap... and some wheel-arch and drive-shaft "massaging" it should be a reasonable mod...
I hope!
