OK so i'm selling the Evo... anyone want?

Gonna buy a $5k RB20 C33 as a train station car and club reg it... then use the rest for a deposit on a CX5 for the family.

Actually kinda looking forward to it as I have always wanted a Laurel and I HATE the golf

Shouldn't have taken the Golf

Should have bought a Jeep

It's not a car, it's an Alfa Romeo

dat Evo buyers regret.

Legitimate thing. No less than 4 people on here who have abandoned them in a matter of months.

Patiently awaiting Ishan and Scott to bail on them now...

but CX5? cant tow (much), no offroad capability... why go soft roader then? small-medium family car will do those duties.

1) you drive a pulsar, you opinion is invalid.

2) clearly it's a family car, not for off-roading or towing my non existent track car that I don't have.

Get an R33 Hamish

No.

They are great and I would still like to have one, but not as my ONLY car and definitely needs moar power.

Buy Hamish's

i do good pri for yoo.

be a man

so why not just get a ford mondeo or something?

cx-5 is basically a mazda 3 on stilts.

compare spec for $$ cx5 is damn good

and mazda 6 newer and better spec than mondeo

all these have been on my check list

new jeep cherokee has me interested along with Skoda octavia RS need to compare with cx5

Mazda.3 is well specced now days the jeep grand Cherokee is deff nicer but few more $$$

The crv is quite nice lookin and well kitted out to but gets pricey

not the grand Missus don;t want to park it.

the new cheerokee out next months,

looks interesting,

curretn reviews say they fixed all the hard plastics, 9 speed auto, plus could tow my race ar so I can buy a fun car.

I haven't driven mine yet, the 4 months don't kick in till the damn engine starts.

Should be a good car, like the other 3 cars I own at the moment. Will need to get rid of one at least once Barry gets it back on the road I think. Anyone want to buy an evo7 with brand new built 2.3 engine? :P

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
