Sorry People's But..................


Recommended Posts

Picked this up from the toll depot today.

The missus has been in need of a car for quite a while now but for many reasons we haven't been able to afford what we wanted. We'd finally paid off what we needed to and agreed on the car you see, this in itself took quite a while as we all know what women are like.

Its a 2001 Mitsubishi Evo VII

Its stock as a rock and goes like a cut snake, for a stock car it handles and goes so well.

I only have pics at the moment from when it was in Japan but i'll add some fresh ones this weekend.

I'm going to trial fit the rims from the skyline and see how they look tomorrow.

The skyline is still for sale too if anyone is interested!

i guess i'd better add some pics from the weekend!

used a tank of fuel (only has a 40/45L tank) did 10L/100kms and half that driving was certainly spirited.

I'm a Nissan boy at heart and think i always will be but this car is amazing.

Its stock as a rock and would beat my 250+rwkw skyline with lots of suspension mods through the hills!

Sorry about the quality of pics, they were taken on just a 2mp camera phone.

lol the last few are, ya goose! Ash you're as bad as my agents in Japan with the bonnet ajar for pics...

...oh and change your username immediately, traitor!

i still have an rb though chef, haha!

my nik on evo oz isn't mr_rbman though!

very nice mate, how long will it stay stock for? :)

and dont worry i wont think bad of you for owning a mitsy at least its not a magna :D

the missus will be driving it everyday for work so it wont get too heavily modded, probably just and exhaust and rims and maybe a remap down the track!

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
