    Evo 4

    Picked up the evo!!

    Finally got some pics but weather has stopped me from cleaning it!!

    Enjoy people























    Changed the yellow repeaters and fitted Hi/Low HID kit, next mods are new brakes as the discs are slightly warped. Then maybe some coilovers.

    It is a complete monster on the road, really very quick and I am loving it.

    Re: Picked up the evo!!

    i thought it was a 4 hence the IV?? lol 350bhp bet its quick, ultimately a very quick car but there is much more to be had if your gonna go on modding it :P. bet it the stand still acceleration and general grip that really surprised you eh! 4WD gotta love it

    Evo 4

    Re: Picked up the evo!!

    Yeah mine is a 4 with an evo 7 engine and ECU topped off with an evo 8 turbo, gizzmo boost controller, full kakimoto exhaust, decat and down pipe.

    And the road grip is amazing, first mod = brembo brakes!

    Re: Picked up the evo!!

    Nice. It's the 5's & 6's I like.

    Atleast it doesnt pretend to have the Makinen engine (blue top is it?) I thought they all had them now. LOL
    it's a C20XE not a fookin Redtop FFS

    Re: Picked up the evo!!

    5s are the ones to buy, stronger engine that the 4's and have brembos etc... 6's are nice also but you canb get stung on the road tax depening on when it was imported.

    loving the idea of a 4 with a 7 engine though! awsome..
