Thanks mate.
I'm glad I didn't end up having to sell it, but now it's taking too long to get it back where it was :(
So you made 350 with an FP Green??
Thats awesome. What torque?
Reason I ask is because I'm also running an FP turbo and made 352 on All-Star hub dyno.. very similar!

Awesome looking EVO buddy.
Nice list of goodies too.
I do like it in blue and RP03s are a very nice rim too.

I always wondered if you actually owned a car; now I know...and it's a pretty mint one at that. Respect.

Haha I always wanted a white one! They look mint dumped on their ass de-winged. I drive past Fabcar everyday on the way home from work and the blue was sitting up against the fence shining in the sun. Turned around to check it out, signed the papers the next day. Often wish I had got a white one instead!
We'll see how we go, could be 6 months before I get everything done, and I'm still trying to get Saf to fabricate my custom manifold... absolutely no neons!

Haha yeah thought it was about time I threw something up, thanks!

Typical de facto. Claims of significant contribution to the relationship... I tried selling it (the car, not her) but didn't have much luck so I stripped it back to practically stock and sold a heap of shit to stop her getting her grubby hands on anything. 2 months later all was sorted and I ended up with a stock Evo again. :(
fuck you pingpingpingpings posting about being poor with evos. makes me suffer an epic fml moment

Forget the White 4-7.
Blue cars > all.

Didn't you sell your blue car for a red one?
Mint looking evo mate!

Yep - but I bought it for the fruit, not the colour.
I'll always think Blue > All :)
Evo looks good in blue, White Evo's are too common.

Track virgin mate. When I get 5 minutes to spare I plan on changing that.

Sounds good, as is mine, I'm a huge pussy though.
Did the sway bar kits make a difference at all, it is something I've been looking into as I've heard mixed things about them.

Made it a hell of a lot easier to throw into a corner :)
Eliminated understeer which seems to be quite common in a stock Evo. Reasonably cheap mod too so was worth the spend.

Swaybars - especially the rear makes a huge difference! ...as does the roll centre kit.

Best of luck with the future mods, will keep an eye on the build.
