EVO isn't that amazing, and pale in comparrison to my R33, however as stock they freakin good and you can mod them to a reasonable level for very little money in a way that will still appear stock and not require changes if defected.

guess ill have to drive one sometime to see what the fuss is. factory recaros sounds nice, probably still factory heavy though.

Guy i know through work has a modified one in Tassie.... always been tempted to buy it at Tassie price, drive for a bit then sell for profit here. who says JDM styling is a bad thing :P

i removed my seats on the weekend, they arent light but they arent skyline seat heavy.

yeah they're a good all rounder

i dont plan on modding it or going power crazy

the factory power output is plenty i think

what hamish said, an ecu flash with more boost (can be done via factory ecu and factory solenoid or buy a 3 port solenoid that plugs in to the factory loom for $115)

dual map it with 98 and e85, they pickup a decent 30kw or so. stock tune is only ~160kw at the wheels, remap with ~24psi or slightly more on the e85 map.

i dont have any good pics of it yet, havent got it, still going through mechanical check, rwc etc

its an evo 8 MR FQ 300

leather suede interior

slotted and drilled rotors

red brake pads

different manifold

hks evc 5 i think ?

apexi pen turbo timer

coilovers

hks exhaust superdragger apparently

its a UK spec so it has a few homo spec items, fog lamp in rear bar, speedo is dual mph / kp/h

the windows close and the mirrors fold in when you press the lock button 3 times on the remote

is this std or some special feature? never seen this on a factory car

some of the MR FQ stuff is a little hard to check

he assues me its a legit fq, the chassis seems to align to the FQ #'s and all the badges are there etc

confirms he has all the FQ paperwork

all in all a nice example and v happy

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
