Dave what kinda of material are you useing, if you dont mind telling. I was going to make one myself a couple years ago and got a half sheet of 1/8 abs plastic it seemed lighter than that but I dont know.

 

Thats classic coming from you!

 

That Maclaren is actually a doable project on an EVO I think BUT it would require someone being willing to drill holes in the bottom of the car. I am not personally willing to drill any holes in my RS. If it was a beater or a track car, sure, no problem. As fast as my RS is I have never drilled or cut anything on the car.

The Vishnu piece, is it made of aluminum or something? I have never seen one before.

I probably will not make anything like that. The problem is the exhaust, everyone has something different and it is impossible to make a generic full rear tray like that. I am guessing his fits his exhaust only.

I have the JDM EVO9 rear on my car, so that is what I will be making atleast the first piece for.

 

I'd be very interested in upgrading the undertray. While it's a pain in the *** to take on and off when working on the car, I don't want to remove it permanently as it not only protects the engine compartment, but also has aero effects that I wasn't willing to loose.

I've been considering some other aftermarket ones, but none had all the features I'm looking for, so if you can come up with a good solution I'll definitely be interested.

 

Project Solo Gear (they make heavy duty rally undertrays for Subies) is working on a model for the Evo. They are made out of heavy duty marine-grade Aluminum...here's a picture of one of their "access" versions for the Subie. As you can see there are removable plates for oil changes etc.

 

Thats correct but it would be easy to work around it.

 

+1 for a rear diffuser. Hell, anything that keeps air from getting stuck like a parachute I'm game for. I've noticed a lot of the drag cars are putting holes in the rear bumper for this.

 

i'm deff. interested if this turns out to work nicely for the IX SE's

 

undertray im in

 

That's the way I would love to buy it, something kind of "half-finished" and you finish it on your own car because of all of the part differences. This is exactly the way I would want it, but then again, I am only one person on here...

I have been wanting to do a little project like this for quite some time...

 

Interested in the undertray and a diffuser for the jdm bumper if you make one.

 

so do one that you know will fit your exhaust.....i have one and will probally buy it.

 

Yep yep!

 

Do a generic one for the USDM bumper and for ur exhaust, shouldn't be hard to cut to make our exhaust fit. The APR was a good idea, but not functional to me.

 

I ordered more sheeting today. I should have it all middle of next week. I have more material coming for the template for the rear too. I hope, Monday or Tuesday to get a stock EVO8 in here and see how this is going to work on it.

Shouldn't be too much longer to have some type of kit ready for the cars. I am guessing for the front on the EVO8's with and without aftermarket lips, less than a 2 weeks for sure.
