i ordered an RR evo9rs euro ver from japan & some parts are not what ive expected.. it doesnt have recaro seats, i know that all evos have recaro seats but i dont understand why they did not put up a recaro on this? that sux! pls comment on this.. thanx

 

The japanese RS is the very base trim, so that means no Recaros, Brembos, air con etc.

All those other stuff comes as an option that you can choose to put on at time of purchase, which by the sounds of it you didn't spec.

 

That is BS, I guess we do get somethings (good) for the USDM.

Goodluck.

 

Not necessarily, you have to realize that most RS's are bought by race teams who will have no use for the Recaro seats as they wiil be putting in their own fixed back seats, same goes for other components.
So this is where you have the option of speccing the Recaros, Brembos, air-con etc. Why pay for something you arn't going to use?

 

There are Two RS versions in Japan ! ...

the RS .. no recaro, brembo ... etc ! .. as they mentioned ! .. also the steering wheel is diffrent yes ?? ..

The RS2 .. has recaro, brembos , power windows but no radio ! .. and i have this version of the evo ! ..

 

They also have no use for melted A.B.S. brake sensors up front near the Brownbo's

 

Does it have the Super AYC??? You may as well get that if you can.

 

it sux man! buying a bnew evo here in the philippines is not a joke.. deym it cost a lot here...

 

Depending on the use of the car the AYC diff could be a disadvantage, which is why its an option on the RS's.

 

heres the spec

Lancer Evo IX RS2
-Euro spec
-SAYC/ACD
-Auto-climate control
-standard seats (not recaro)
-GSR specs except 5 speed only
-deflectored rear bumper

 

brod how much did it costs you? and how long does it take for you to have it?your lucky you could buy an evo back home.

 

do you have pictures of your ride?

 

i didn't know the euro RS has no recaros...

 

bnew is about Php2.2m & it should be arriving end of this month straight from japan..

 

i dont have a pic yet.. just imagine an RR EvoIXRS with a wing, enkei rims, & jdm rear bumper..
