Week Three, June 2003

Hey guys,

My name is Steve Phemister (aka RallySteve) from Beaverton, Oregon and here’s my submission for this months HPI Racer Gallery.

It’s an HPI RS4 e-Rally chassis (lowered for tarmac) topped by an HPI Mitsubishi Lancer V WRC body. I used a custom mix of Parma Fascolor paints for the green and accented the body with Faspearl White and charcoal graphics.

The body has many modifications including a full 3D interior tray complete with dashboard, steering wheel, seat w/ harness, NOS bottle and fire extinguisher. The outside has mesh work on all intakes and vents, intercooler, wipers, mirrors, disk brakes w/ calipers, a drifting wing, an aluminum exhaust and a full set of LED lights w/ fixtures. The body is affixed to the chassis using rare earth magnets so no body pins are needed.

This project spanned a few stress-filled weeks to finish, but a fair amount of the detail parts were fabricated beforehand, due to other projects I had completed in the past.

I hope you enjoy my “Lancer EVO V Drifter”!
