Time to move on and sell my beloved 2004 Mitsubish Evo 8MR.

$49,990ono for a well modified car using only quality parts, perfect for someone who wants to do some trackwork/Duttons etc.

Open to offers and swaps (for equal or lesser value, not more).

55,xxx kms

4 months rego

Other than the standard MR goodies (very supportive Recaros, HIDs, auto window/mirrors, rear wiper etc) it has the following mods (well over $20K worth):

Built Tomei 2.3L stroker (crank, pistons, rods)

MoTeC M800 PnP

Cosworth 272 Cams

Trust PE2 turbo back exhaust

Bosch 044 fuel pump

ORC twin plate clutch

KW Variant 3 coilovers

Endless CC-X front pads, Ferodo DS2500 rear

18x9 +29 Advan RS (including a spare, no tyre on it)

245/40/18 Federal something tyres

Seibon carbon fibre front lip

Suede covered steering wheel

Ralliart rear strut brace

Maitland Performance half-cage with harness bar, weld in (can be removed if buyer wishes)

Sabelt 4-point harness

330hp and 485Nm on the ASG hub dyno. With the extra 300cc and stock twin scroll turbo its a torque monster and is a thrill to drive. Upgrading the turbo would be the next logical step...

All mechanical work and servicing performed at ASG in Malaga, receipts available.

Selling as a complete package at this stage but will consider separating if the right offer is presented.

PM me or SMS/call 0421 799 948 - not always able to answer my phone at work (before 4pm) so if I dont answer leave a message and I'll get back to you.

Solid lines is current

Because its on stock turbo (TD05) and runs out of puff by that stage, with the 2.3 this car is all about response and low down grunt.

Turbo kit would be the next upgrade for anyone who wanted to go that way, but for me this is much more suited to street driving.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
