1999 Mutsubishi Evolution VI

4WD 2.0L Turbo.

55,000 kms, auction grade 4.5, one owner in Japan, one owner in Australia.

This car was imported unmodified, and included a complete factory-fitted Ralliart sports pack (coilovers, ECU, lightweight wheels, chassis bracing, coilpacks/leads + more).

Since then the car has had some minor internal engine modifications (HKS cams & cam gears, Crower titanium valve springs & retainers, new seals & bearings), but is otherwise standard internally.

The Ralliart sports pack includes a small boost pressure increase (from approx 1.2 to 1.4 bar). This is the boost level that the car has been modified & tuned to, but is by no means the limit of what the engine is capable of.

Other modifications include Tomei 3 inch dump pipe, Apexi Power FC ECU with hand controller, Defi gauge cluster + controller, battery relocation, intake & intercooler modifications, and a TXS exhaust. All original parts are also included.

The recommended safe limit for knock levels when tuning these engines with the Apexi Power FC is 60. This car will never see a knock level above 10, and I will happily demonstrate this to any buyers. It is a safe, reliable tune on a well modified car that will pin you in your seat when you press the loud pedal. Approx 3 hours was spent installing and setting the initial tune on this ECU, and then a further 6 hours was spent on the dyno perfecting the tune.

The car has been regularly serviced every 3000 kms, and comes with all receipts & service records as proof. Even with the agressive cams the car idles steady as a heartbeat, and doesn't blow a single hint of smoke even when pushed.

It irritates me no end to see car after car being advertised as "immaculate", so I'm not going to use that word to describe this car - even though in this case it truely deserves it. But what I will say is that the exterior is absolutely perfect. There is not one single pin dent, faded area, scratch or even a stone chip on this car. The colour & shine on this factory blue paintjob has to be seen to be believed - the photos don't do it justice. You will not find another Evo 6 that's even close to as unmarked as this one is. As with the exterior, the interior of this car is also faultless.

I have reached the stage of my life where I need to grow up and start investing my money properly, and this sadly means selling my car to make way for a house. For this reason I'm not really interested in any trades, seeing as I'd then need to sell the traded vehicle as well.

This car has only had one mature driver for it's entire life in Australia, and has never been taken to any racetrack, drag strip or even a driving event. The sole purpose of this car was to put a smile on my face - something it never once failed to do.

The asking price is $24,000.

If you can find a single fault with the car I will happily reduce that price, but I can tell you now you won't be able to find one.

I don't log onto car forums very often, so all enquiries should be directed to my mobile: 0421 270 972

Cheers,

Sadly the buyers finance was rejected, so the car is back on the market.

And as a testimont to how good this car is, that was the first and only person so far that has come to look at it, and they put a deposit on it. I really mean it when I say that this car is better than any others of this model that you'll ever see.

Thanks for the kind words.

Another deposit has been taken, this time from the second person to look into the car. So far that's 2 out of 2 people - pretty good result!

Hopefully the finances check out for this second buyer. I'll confirm again this Thursday when the car is (hopefully) sold.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open

      R34 power steering

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.

      Skid pans in/around Sydney?

      By Kinks · Posted

      I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy

      Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p
