Darren, i really like the evo wagon and legnum's but if its space you're worried about you really can't go past the stag even though for me it was third on the list but you're bigger than me.

You'll have to come to soccer soon and i'll bring the evo.

yeh evo wagon is mint

seen one at mitsubishi on cnr of south road and daws road, i stopped and got out n looked at it n DAMMMMMMMMMM

buy evo wagon

wouldn't be an evo wagon, they're rare as hens teeth, certainly wouldn't be one in a mitsi dealership. Come to think of it i don't think there's one in S.A

Ahhh I love the fact ThatI own the ONLY GT4 N Edition in SA...bought this thing in (cheers iron chef) becaus i didnt want a Legnum (sounds like a vegetable) or a Stagea which everyone has.

Wanted something completely different. 200KW AWD wagaon, Recaro interior VSC ABS & TRD go fast bits...love it.

you need to look at the running cost and repair cost between all three cars aswell as their sizes.

the legnum's engine bay is cramed full of parts and id say being so full of motor that doing anything on it would be a headf**k but they look much better then the other 2 cars and the inside of them is pretty luxery compared to the others as well. ive been in one and their nice to drive in....

the stag's motor would be much easier to work on as is a striaght six and parts would be interchangable from 33/34's and would be easy to source as there every where. the price is normally very fair and fairly updated and roomy interior. there's not a whole lot to fault as a daily family wagon as long as thats all your wanting to use it for....

the evo wagon is tuff. id love to have one and you'd assume that the motor and running gear parts would be interchangable with the other evo's of its age. ive never seen another one in adelaide. its just the price difference between the other 2 cars and this one and like other mitsi turbos the turning curicle would be shit and fuel usage wouldnt be that great put great power delivery for sure. a mates monty carlo vr4 with minor mods made 171 awkw's with shit loads of torque.

in the end try and go for a drive WITH the whole family and see what they all say? my pick would be the stag if it was only between the 3 cars.

if you say so, but explain brand new lancer with evo kit, with a front mount

o and it was a wagon??

unless i was seeing things but it was right infront of me, must have been an illusion

Mate,

If your in SA your more than welcome to test drive a few of my wagons I have Stageas & Legnums both is Manual and Auto. I also have a few M35's landing. You find the cars are priced well as we brought them when the Aussie dollar was high.

I am a big fan of the Mitsubishi Legnum VR4, but at the end of the day its a personal chioce with the car that best suits your needs.

there are a few evo wagons coming into the country now, i think only as of mid this year they got compliance???

If there's an Evo wagon in the country, it's only as a personal import. It's not even eligible under SEVS, and probably never will be. Case closed on that one.

Out of the other two, I'd choose an M35 over a Legnum, and a Legnum over a C34. If you want manual, then Legnum all day every day.

not having a go mate. If its still there i would love to c pics.

If its brand new it can't be an evo 9 wagon as they've ceased production and the evo 10 doesn't come out in a wagon.

I guess someone could've turbo'd the new lancer hatch??? mmmmmmmmmmm.............

leggy isnt that hard to work on.. it looks very crammed from factory, but once you actually take a few intake pipes and the covers off, theres not that much in there.

just did a manual conversion in a mates legnum this weekend, went ahead without any issues.

started yesterday, was driving it today. :cheers:

I'd hardly call around 25-30 Stageas in SA as everyone having one ... unless our popluation dropped to around 25 :laugh:

My advice would be to test drive the cars you're interested in, then think about if you're going to mod the car of choice and how costly or how hard it would be to mod compared to other choices. How easy would spares/parts be to find? :ninja:

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
