Sorry People's But..................


Recommended Posts

Picked this up from the toll depot today.

The missus has been in need of a car for quite a while now but for many reasons we haven't been able to afford what we wanted. We'd finally paid off what we needed to and agreed on the car you see, this in itself took quite a while as we all know what women are like.

Its a 2001 Mitsubishi Evo VII

Its stock as a rock and goes like a cut snake, for a stock car it handles and goes so well.

I only have pics at the moment from when it was in Japan but i'll add some fresh ones this weekend.

I'm going to trial fit the rims from the skyline and see how they look tomorrow.

The skyline is still for sale too if anyone is interested!

i guess i'd better add some pics from the weekend!

used a tank of fuel (only has a 40/45L tank) did 10L/100kms and half that driving was certainly spirited.

I'm a Nissan boy at heart and think i always will be but this car is amazing.

Its stock as a rock and would beat my 250+rwkw skyline with lots of suspension mods through the hills!

Sorry about the quality of pics, they were taken on just a 2mp camera phone.

lol the last few are, ya goose! Ash you're as bad as my agents in Japan with the bonnet ajar for pics...

...oh and change your username immediately, traitor!

i still have an rb though chef, haha!

my nik on evo oz isn't mr_rbman though!

very nice mate, how long will it stay stock for? :)

and dont worry i wont think bad of you for owning a mitsy at least its not a magna :D

the missus will be driving it everyday for work so it wont get too heavily modded, probably just and exhaust and rims and maybe a remap down the track!

    • Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛
    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
    • hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
    • A universal ball joint removal c press kit is better money spent and will work for the Hicas ball joints.  Here's a 45$ CAD Example. ATPEAM Heavy Duty Ball Joint Press Kit with 4WD Adapters | Professional 4 in 1 Ball Joint Press Removal and Installation Tool for Cars and Trucks | Universal Ball Joint Tool with Storage Case, Ball Joint & Tie Rod Tools - Amazon Canada
