	2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback & Lancer Ralliart (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		We tested the Ralliart sedan with a five-speed manual transmission, which has a base price of $21,988, but can be loaded up with options to reach $25,348.
		Both Ralliart models share the 2.4-litre 162-hp engine (a boosted version of that in the Sportback LS) and a factory-tuned suspension that inspired the Ralliart street-tuner name.
		Ralliart models get a sport suspension, including unique spring rates, specific damper tuning, tighter bushings, a stiffer steering rack and a particularly stiff three-point front strut tower brace.

	2004-2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart / Sportback Review - Modern Racer - Auto Archive
		Ralliart is the name of Mitsubishi's performance arm, similar to Toyota's TRD and Ford's SVT.
		Not to be confused with the Evo, the front-wheel-drive Ralliart-edition Lancer is a compromise between the hardcore Evo and the pathetic OZ Rally Edition.
		Inside the Lancer Ralliart are fl cloth sport seats lifted from the Japanese-market Lancer Evolution GT-A. Red accents are woven in, and see-through headrests are a prominent interior characteristic.

	Ralliart price, mileage appeal to youth - January 21, 2005 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The Ralliart, the third (and most expensive) in the Lancer series gets solid gas mileage at nearly 30 per gallon on the highway and as much as 25 in city driving.
		The Ralliart’s overall handling, whether it be a quick lane change or a gradual with a change of elevation, is good, though not spectacular.
		Overall, the Ralliart is not bad for the buck, considering its appearance, interior equipment and reliability.

	CanadianDriver: Test Drive - 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart
		There are two ways to view the Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart: as the ultimate and most painful tease for the Lancer Evolution, a car we can't get in Canada, or as just a really nice little car with a dose of extra attitude.
		Though the Ralliart's engine is similar to the one used in other Mitsubishis like the Lancer Sportback and the base Galant, it has been mated to a throaty exhaust that gives it some extra edge.
		The Ralliart's biggest threat is the Mazda3 Sport Hatchback, which is priced for just a little more money, but offers similar equipment and a more rounded driving experience with a smoother ride and even more impressive cornering ability.

	Sportback Ralliart: Wagon functionality with rally spirit
		The Ralliart's engine is tweaked with a different cam profile, which allows intake valves to stay open further and longer to take in more power-boosting airflow.
		Ralliart models are distinguished by sportier fl vs. the LS model's chrome-colored grille inserts.
		Mitsubishi's Sportback Ralliart fills a niche for consumers who Mitsubishi says have "high rpm hearts and logical minds," combining high cargo-toting functionality with elements borrowed from the rally-proven Lancer Evolution sport sedan.

	Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart Concept - RSportsCars.com
		The Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart concept embodies the definition of a Ralliart model.
		Regarding the Galant Ralliart concept exterior, PIAA driving lamps, show car-quality paint, a metal mesh grille with Ralliart logo, as well as custom-integrated rear spoiler, front and rear fascia and side skirt, immediately make it clear that this is a special ride.
		Comfort and appearance are enhanced with Recaro front driver and passenger seats, Ralliart shift knob, and Logitech driving simulator steering wheel and pedal set.

	Car and Driver Magazine - Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart - June 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Ralliart is Mitsubishi's motorsports skunkworks and has been the wellspring of the company's highly successful efforts in the World Rally Championship.
		Do not confuse the Lancer Ralliart with the O-Z Rally, which is exactly as racy as a pound and a half of Velveeta.
		The Ralliart's power peak comes on at a fairly relaxed level (5750 rpm), and allied with a five-speed manual gearbox (augmented by a slick short-throw shifter from the Evo parts bin), it's enough to haul this Lancer to 60 mph in 7.3 seconds and through the quarter-mile in 15.5 seconds at 90 mph.

		The Ralliart sedan upgrades to a 2.4-liter engine tuned to produce 162 hp and 162 pound-feet of.
		Antilock brakes and side airbags are standard on the Ralliart models, and optional on the ES and O-Z Rally.

		The Ralliart's transmission was another best-in-class, with a beautifully simple explanation: this unit is lifted directly from the legendary Lancer Evolution.
		The Ralliart's handling is also among the best you can get for under $20,000, which came as a bit of a surprise to me--I drove a base Lancer ES not too long ago, and its back-road behavior was a little clumsy.
		Overall though, the Ralliart's handling is superb--how easily you can use all the available grip is more important than the amount of grip itself--and a more aggressive set of tires would likley improve the Ralliart's skidpad performance greatly.

	2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart - The Car Connection
		The 2004 Lancer Ralliart is the car Mitsubishi hopes that buyers - young buyers - attracted to the EVO's accumulating legend will want after realistically confronting their own financial limitations and insurance premiums.
		The Ralliart, on the other hand, is the mechanical equivalent of a Honda Civic Si or Nissan Sentra SE-R, and that's not bad company.
		The Ralliart is probably just about as quick as Civic Si and maybe just a touch behind the Sentra SE-R. Put that down as a wild-eyed guess of an 8.0-second 0-to-60 time and a 16-flat quarter mile.

	Review: 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart Darwinism
		Ralliart is to Mitsubishi what NISMO and Prodrive are to Nissan and Subaru.
		The Lancer Ralliart which I drove showed no propensity to make lurid four — wheel slides around the Malibu Canyons or get airborne over the crests of small humps — but it was nevertheless very enjoyable and reassuring to drive.
		The Ralliart has discs all rounds instead of drums at the rear and they are aided by ABS and electronic brake force distribution.

	R&T ROADandTRACK.com --- First Drives: Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart (10/2003)
		The U.S.-spec Lancer Ralliart is no Evo — far from it — but it is impressive in its own way.
		At the test track, the Lancer Ralliart kept up with all but the best of them, running to 60 mph in 7.5 seconds and the quarter mile in 15.7.
		The Ralliart version will be distinguishable by a new rear spoiler, front and side air dams and unique foglights.

	CanadianDriver: Test Drive - 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart
		The O-Z Rally is still on board, and shares with Ralliart its white-faced gauges, carbon fibre look-alike dash panel (which is actually quite attractive), ground effects and rear spoiler.
		To that, Ralliart adds comfortable and supportive Sport front bucket seats, sport-tuned suspension, 16-inch alloy wheels, 4-wheel discs with ABS and electronic brake force distribution, and a free-flow sport-tuned exhaust.
		The kicker is Ralliart's exclusive 2.4 litre SOHC 4-cylinder MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing and lift Electronic Control - hey, I just report 'em, I don't name 'em) engine, which hits 162 twice - its horsepower at 5,750 rpm, and its lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm.

		Not at all when you consider the Ralliart Magna has been refined to within an inch of its life by a team of cluey dudes from the back rooms at Tonsley Park in Adelaide.
		Ralliart Magna's engine, which started life as a dynamometer project, is good for 180kW of power and 333Nm of torque _ the greatest output from this engine and that includes Japanese variants.
		We were able to take the Ralliart Magna for a good blast around Tasmania that included some sections of the Targa Tasmania rally route.

	Car and Driver Magazine - Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart - October 2003 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Consequently, Ralliart has become a household name in lands such as Finland and Australia—two stops on the WRC circuit—but not in the U.S., where the WRC exists only on TV and video screens.
		The Lancer Ralliart is really what the 120-hp Lancer O-Z Racing Rally Edition should have been in the first place—a legitimate sport compact that is quick, nimble, and capable of taking on the likes of the Ford SVT Focus and Mazdaspeed Protegé.
		Beneath the Ralliart's newly sculpted hood (all '04 Lancers save the Evo get the fresh corporate face) is a highly modified version of the 4G64 2.4-liter SOHC four-cylinder engine that powers the current Eclipse and Galant.

	2006 Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart Review \| AutoSite Car Previews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Under the hood, the 260-horsepower, 3.8-liter V6 that’s due to arrive in the redesigned 2006 Eclipse drives the front wheels through a six-speed manual transmission, which should put the Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart on equal footing with vehicles such as the Nissan Altima SE-R and Pontiac G6 GXP in terms of acceleration.
		Round driving lights are added to the resculpted front fasica, wire mesh grille inserts with the Ralliart logo have been installed, and side sill extensions visually lower the car.
		The concept vehicle was painted a dark orange metallic, and had vents tacked onto the outboard edges of the hood.

	AutoSpeed - New Car Test - Ralliart Magna
		And so when we discovered that the Ralliart was going to be sold with no less than 180kW from its (still only mildy tweaked!) 3.5 litre V6, and that bigger brakes and a sophisticated torque-sensing LSD were also going to find their way into the package, well, we were pretty excited.
		We had a 3-litre Magna Sport driver pedal the Ralliart and since he was used to carefully unwinding the steering wheel as he exited corners under power, and holding the wheel firmly during acceleration, he didn't have any problems.
		The test Ralliart was fitted with the $1850 optional sunroof - which had the effect of very pleasantly opening up the cabin of what is a car with quite a high waistline - while included as standard there's an easy to use digital climate control, effective trip computer, twin airbags and electric mirrors and windows.

	AutoSpeed - New Car Test - Mitsubishi Magna Ralliart Automatic
		Still, the manual trans Ralliart is the sort of car you've got to be completely 'on top of' all the time - you need to hold tightly onto the wheel and get your elbows ready for some juggling.
		With its traction control on, the Ralliart Magna AT burns one of its 225/50 16 Pirelli P6000s for an instant before traction is regained and you're whoomphing away; it's mainly the initial jump off-the-line where it loses ground to the manual variant.
		The camshafts offer 10 percent more lift (and their associated valve springs are upgraded), there're improved cylinder heads, a high-flow exhaust with new stainless headers, revised ECU mapping and the compression ratio has been upped to 9.4:1 - a modest amount that still allows the use of normal unleaded fuel, rather than expensive high-octane premium.

	RalliArt Italy - Mitsubishi Motor Sports
		The Lancer WRC04 managed by RalliArt Italy will be delivered to the Italian department after one-week testing in Corsica in mid-October; some engineers, specialised on the Lancer WRC04 will arrive in Italy together with the car.
		RalliArt Italy personnel will move to Rugby, in the RalliArt Head Quarters to learn not only all the “secrets” of the World Rally Car set-up, but also job methods to work at the best on the Lancer WRC04.
		Mario Stagni, RalliArt Italy Team Director, said: “the opportunity to manage the Lancer WRC04 which Mitsubishi Motors Motor Sports offered to RalliArt Italy is not only a prize for our 2004 PCWRC season and results, but open also good perspectives for 2005”.

	- What is the difference Between The RalliArt & The OZ-Rally? - - Car Forums and Automotive Chat
		PS: im getting my car for a Dealers car auction as my dad is partners in a dealership, so im hoping to get one for cheap, but i doubt i will find the ralliart for under 10k, so please help me to see what i would need to upgrade an OZ to a ralliart.
		You could use a turbo or a piggyback ecu system to come close to a stock ralliart's numbers, but there's simmilar options for the ralliart as well so the differences woudl be moot.
		so the ralliart and oz-rally arent the same model lancer, i thought they just changed the name for the new year, and added a few things here and there.
