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:

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
