now that we have our cars of choice all up and running, should hook up next time you're down in brighton - we can cruise church and hampton st :P j/k

i heard the handling on these cars are just outta this world... plenty of power yet to be untapped too i'm sure...

congrats mate!

shannons came through with the goods for me as well! Said the only reason they gave me insurance for a 34 under 25yr old was cos i was a SAU Member - yet another advantage of being a member peeps! :D

Thanks for all the replies and comments guys. Just took it down to Gippsland for a drive round some tracks and the handling is awesome. Flicked it onto the Gravel setting and the balance is superb. Stuff I used to drive the Lib in and get body roll, this doesnt even flinch.

Certainly will be at DECA although I am not promising any good results!

Need to find an owners manual and get a spare key cut now so will try Mitsubishi first.

Cheers guys :dry:

Awesome looking bit of kit...... :(

Im becoming more & more keen on these cars the more I see of them. Maybe one day.

No Shark fins?? Or were these evo8 onwards or a factory option?

Are these the things in a row that span the width of the roof above the rear window? If so, I think they are 8's onwards and optioned so I dont have them. We saw one with those on at Sandown. James was talking to the guy about them so probably knows more than me on it. :)

I was actually after a 6 until I found this one and am very glad I got this for a few 000 extra and a lot newer with less km's so the look has really grown on me in the past few weeks.

Hey alan !! Daz here, finally got your car ! u dropped the project skyline eh ?? nice looking evo there. I didnt know ur looking for a white evo 6 as my friend is selling one at the moment... Well great car you got there... Hope to catch up soon

LOL! at pre thrashed! I think all the other test drivers will come out of the woodwork now, damn you SAU hoons!

Hey Darren, long time no speak mate, catch you on MSN next time. I really needed something I could easily clock 20,000-30,000 a year km's in and that I could hang on to for 5 years or so.

Went for a passenger ride in West's mate 6 (sorry forgot your name!) and that was the final ticket really for me to get one.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
