Evo? I'll take one please...

[pickinicholas]

Well, I sold the truck to my parents (they needed a truck with a bigger engine, and I was itching for a car again for a DD... so it worked out) and went to the "darkside"...

2003 Evo VIII
Blizack
APS FMIC
APS BOV
APS Intake/Intercooler thingy
APS 3.5" Exhaust
Lowered 2"... I think they are Tien springs
Ecutek Tune Via Richard
B&M Short shifter
And I think that's about it...

Oh, and I gotz TVs in the seats... big baller like! And a nice JVC deck.

Let me know what you think :)

[Max Power]

Look at you... you get an evo and bam you're back on the board!

Congrats - they're fun cars. I wish I had mine :)

[Bphilly]

really nick? with the tv's in the seats?

[VSB XT]

Okay so let's do a car count here shall we Nick? Supra dupra, race built wrx, some other cars we prolly don't know about, and now an evo? I can only imagine what you'll do w/ this car. :D Robert will thank you for his retirement plan! LOL!!!

[crzyjulius]

This car needs to stay a DD so, maybe a bolt on turbo, injectors, retune, and wheels/tires. That will be about it for now.

It was stripped of it's dignity and has been sitting in my garage until I can build a new Turbo kit for it... The supra is in the shop getting the Twins replaced with the GT42R that I was going to put on the WRX... I'm thinking I'm just going to put a GT40R on the WRX, but who knows. The WRX is the track car, so it isn't the first priority right now. I want the supra running good for the first time since I've owned it, so that is the first priority, then wheels and tires for the Evo (tires are shot)... then the WRX.

I'm also in the process of buying a new house, so I'm saving for the retardedly huge down payment I have to put down. So that is where the cars are.

Oh, and the Blazer and the Trooper are going to be sold once it cools down (neither have A/C)

It was either keep the TVs in there or have holes in the seats... so I chose to keep them in. And if I ever have a kid, then they can watch GI Joe while I drive... that's if I ever have a kid though... haha

I truly think a gt40 is too much for a track car. i'd stay gt30 at most, more power doesn't mean quicker times!

[Max Power]

I'm telling you Nick, stick with a smaller turbo. What displacement will it have? If you are 2.5+ I would try one of those new Turbonetics GT35 twinscrolls with the T4 flange (preferably on a Full Race header :)).

If you are at 2.0 to right around 2.5 I'd stay with a Gt30.

[crzyjulius]

Nick if you need tires or rims let me know and I'll hook you up with my bro he can get you a discount:)

[pickinicholas]

I just ordered these for it...

(the 18X9.5 so, I'm thinking a 275 would fit nicely...)

And Richard w/ Dyno Comp has a set of NT01s that he said I could have for dirt cheap, they have one track day on them... but I might stick with the RT-615s

The GT40R spooled faster than the GT35R, and I was tired of the GT30R, so that's what's going on there. And I don't know how much I'll be tracking the car anymore, priorities have kinda shifted. But the car is staying in the collection.

[wgnths]

i'd put the suby up for sale if you don't plan on tracking it. no sense in it taking up room, and when else would you really drive it? and i'd skip the nt01's on the evo. isn't that your daily driver? i'd pick up some bridgestone re-01's! and you'll probably be rolling the fenders to accomodate the 9.5's and 275's! should look sweet though.

[Max Power]

You'll definitely have to roll the rears unless you go with a 255. With a 275, you will rub in the front too though (the fender liner). I went down to a 265/35/18 RE01r on 18x9.5 +30 (with a 5mm spacer in the front). With the stock struts, you might be some trouble with that wide a tire though. Might want to stick with a 255/35.

I'm not selling the WRX, I can't justify losing that much money... and I WILL still track it, but it will just be more spread apart.

[pickinicholas]

Well the Evo is bye bye... I hated to see it go, but it was allowing me to get into too much trouble too easily... if that makes sense.
