I'll bet it was taken from either one or our earlier post (which we did always reference to one of the Japanese motoring magazines), or directly from one of the Japanese magazines.

BTW did you have a quick squiz at BC this month at the new MARK II which will probably be called MARK X by someone ;):P:D:D.

Hey Rezz, i just bought issue 15 of Speed magazine and i couldnt find any mention of the EVO X atm, havnt had a good read through......if i find anything ill type out the article on here, as i do not have a scanner. Although, there is an article on Top Secrets V35 GT-R theyre producing with a calimed 600Kw VK45 4.5litre V8, with an adopted 4WD from the G35x. You probably know all about that.

Theres also an article on the new GT-R calling it an "R36 GT-R" now. I will copy out that article later tonight if you like.

****edit.....sorry i just seen on the next skyline discussion board that the "R36 GT-R" article is on there....so ignore the top secret/R36 GT-R thing........

Steve.

I was in Japan last month and spoke at a mitsubishi engineer (actually we were drinking quite heavily so it was more of a slur than speeking :)) who said that top management were considering axing the evo 9 and onwards all together because of the recalls and quality issues mitsubishi (global) have incurred in the past. He said it was a 50/50 decision at the moment (august). I dont know whats happened since

I actually agree and prefer them to stop production altogether and come back to the car later on instead of slapping something together and the fact they are favouring the Colt platform for Rally.

Other reason I don't want the Evo to be a global car at all...it should remain limited as the day it started life.

There was am article in this month's NZ Autocar which mentioned that Mitsi Japan recently had a new product presentation to the Mitsi NZ/Au people, and that the EVO 10 was shown. Someone was quoted as saying it is a 'very innovative' design.

No pics though.

there is a page article with some pictures in septembers Motor magazine. i havnt got a scanner so i cant scan it sorry but maby somone else will.

Main points are

- Powered by 4cyl MIVEC Turbo with 240kw and 431nm torque

- Release late 2006

-Evo 9 release january 2005

- new active lsd on front

the pics are only drawings of a picture that was showen at the press confrence for a few seconds.

Unrelated but i thought you might know. I read that the 206kw rule has been taken away is this true?? ( i have read about most of the new models being powerfuler just wanted to make sure)

Wheels had a little article, with this picture:

lancerevox01small.jpg

Which has been photoshopped into yellow and orange.

rundown:

'07 Launch,

new 4 cylinder engine

Built on "C-segment platform" (which may be either colt or lancer platform. ATM it's simply labelled evo X)

the pic is a mitsu-produced concept pic.

They're all ACP mags, so I wouldn't be surprised to see the same article in all three. (speed. motor, wheels)

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
