Meh, i saw that coming. Does this mean they will stop producing the Ralliart lancer altogether? Or just rename it?

Probably a rename as it doesn't have any bearing on the actual car. Not surprised though as Mitsubishi has hit hard times like a lot of manufacturers and Ralliart doesn't have a lot of bearing on the product. There are so many Domestic and Japanes aftermarket companies producing just as good or better parts for less money. I don't think I've ever bought a Ralliart part.

AFAIK Ford Racing is a parts group (like ralliart), SVT is the special vehicles team, making the cobra and such, and RS is just their name for their special models. Like Z71 is for Chevy Trucks or SS for their cars.

TRD has been re-named. It is now "TiRD". Toyota (involuntary) Racing Development.

I thought it's TURD, Toyota Unintended Racing Development.

And it's awesome, they are able to make a Prius go above 90MPH.

TRD, Nismo, Ralliart are useless here in NA. At lease TRD and Nismo are still busy in Japan making real parts.
