would rather catch the bus than be forced to drive a eco bullshit car

Hmm, taking public transport or driving around in a eco bull shit car? That's like asking would you rather eat the shit you took today or the shit you took yesterday...

Probably more to do with the economic down turn than anything else.

Holden dropped the monaro, Nissan dropped the gtr. Plenty of examples of this kind of thing happenning before.

No doubt it will make a rerun some time in the future with much ado and fan fare.

When did nissan drop the gtr? I read a drive.com article 3 days ago about nissan's new gtr and how they planned to bring out a new one every 12 months.

Right after the 34. there was about a 5 year gap till the 35.

couldn't see many cubic inches fitting into this

you'd have to rip out the backseats & mid engine that sucker

You dont need the space for cubic inches to make something poweful and dirty...we are a skyline forum after all...see attached.

It sucks there thinking of doing this. The maximum bang for your buck perfomance cars are becoming a dying bread.

Bumping this thread due to a tweet from japanesenostalgiccar.com/

Looks like Mitsubishi have confirmed they are killing of the Evo. Maybe somebody with better translating skills than Google can give some insight on the article.

It's a pity that developing a car these days requires so much investment that it has to be one or the other. Let's hope that other brands still see enough value in "Halo" models to keep producing fun cars.

In that case Ryan my 8MR is up f/s at $10K more than what I paid for it :P

Yes it's a pity they couldn't take the risks that Carlos Ghosn did! Renault is being aggressive atm too.

Now it'll be interesting what Toyota and Subaru will do pursuant to the 86 and BRZ.

Honda IMHO has gone down the safe but wrong track! Currently they're paying for it.

Mitsubishi Motors, entered the final adjustment in the direction to produce the end of the year end high-performance sports car "Lancer Evolution". The model launched the first model in 1992, the current type corresponds to the 10th. Domestic cumulative sales up to 2013 about 92 million units. For many years, and has contributed to improving the brand image of the company, etc. to win the championship year in the World Rally Championship (WRC). However, I was judged in the environment-oriented increases worldwide, that it is necessary to focus on eco-car development and management resources. Focus on development of next-generation eco-car with an electric device, and fostering the image leader of a new Mitsubishi car these in the future. ※ You can see in the daily newspaper automobile electronic version for details.Please try not hesitate to試読a week because it is also possible. Application I take from red banner below.

On the contrary, variety is good.

Even competition is good.

If I thought negative, I'd be smarting over why EVO guys get annoyed about the other car I've left at home!

I could go on but...

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
