2003 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Viii Gsr 220Awkw


Recommended Posts

IMG_3011RigEdit.jpg

Up for sale is my 2003 JDM Lancer Evolution 8, an extremely regretful sale as it has easily been the best car I have owned and if my circumstances were different you would not be reading this thread. After owning civics, skylines, surpas and silvias I can guarantee this is by far the best car in my opinion. It has a great mod list and in my eyes is the perfect street Evo, it looks tough and it performs.

It has had almost all modifications installed exclusively by Meek Automotive and recently returned to them for a full drivetrain service + AYC bleed where they commented that the AYC Pump sounded in excellent condition. It is coming up for a 100k service however the timing belt was replaced when the cams were put in so it will not be necessary to swap for quite a while yet, this is the most expensive part of the major service. I had the accessories belt replaced less than 10'000km's ago.

There is almost nothing that the car needs, it is in perfect working order and ready to drive around. However, it is due for a tune. I thought it best to leave this up to the new owner as everyone has different opinions about who is the best tuner and I have taken this factor into consideration when pricing the car.

Power? As I mentioned the car is due for a tune. To be honest I'm not sure how much power it makes, feels like 220awkw but the previous owner of the car advised me that it made 244awkw at a dyno day. With the way the mods list reads and depending how you want to tune it, this setup should be see 230-250awkw.

I often get comments on how amazing the car sounds with the cams. People who have heard it at meets can attest to how good it sounds at idle, extremely tough. Why sell? Time to buy a house! Keen to free up some cash and start playing a different game for a while. Car will be professionally detailed before sale, not that it needs it. Comes with WE-34-PN plates.

Price: $24500ono. No test drives without a deposit. Don’t lowball me. Don’t dream.

    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
    • Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
    • I installed it all myself,  It was really easy to install.  I got a professional to do the degas/gas.
    • Finally had some time after working on other projects to jump back on this thing. Pulled all 4 wheels to check the brakes over and lucked out, only needed to bleed them/change fluid to get everything working!    Took it for its first quick spin (around 2km) up the road and ran great! Sounds like I have a left rear wheel bearing that needs replacing and there’s a shake in the steering wheel but the tires are absolutely junk on this thing and had been sitting flat when I went to first look at the car so we’ll see if that’s the cause.   Tach randomly started working but I notice if my hicas light comes on the tach stops working 🙃 yay for electrical gremlins 
    • Bunnings car park it is! if you buy the kind of dampers with the adjustable top on the strut you can see it, red, purple? So many options.
