Hey gang

After quite a bit of browsing the market for a 33 or 34 GTR, I came across a car that I found was to be a little bit better value for money and in my budget - a Mitsubishi Evolution 8 MR. I miss my 34 and waving to other Skylines as I drive past, but I'm having tons of fun with this car. I'm still keen to be an active SAUer and attend everything I can. See you at Putty Road. Enjoy!

Cheers

Shanil

Thanks guys

Yep the MR edition comes stock with the Bilsteins, CF hood, lghter aluminium roof, turbo setup is slightly different, cam profiles a little more aggressive. It's my first AWD car and absolutely loving the corners!! Also my first turbo and manual car so the last couple of weeks have been a learning curb on both fronts.

R34Liner - sorry mate I only have a handful of pics of my actual ride which my brother took to experiment with his new camera. If you want to know what it looks like, it's exactly like this:

Evo 8 MR

See you guys on Sunday!

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
