also.... i know how you feel about breaking stuff. both my 8 and 9 have Shep tranny's and Tcases now. Just for peace of mind, and both run Exedy Twin Disk HD's.

Get that tranny Taken care of, and I guarentee you'll fall back in love with it bro.

Good luck
Its been taken care of. Devo built tranny with Evo VIII 4th gear. Like I said in my earlier posts I wouldn't trade my car for anything else anymore. As long as I don't mess anything up in the future. For now I'm very happy with the Evo. But I really need some winter tires.

I hope not to see a "I wrecked my EVO in the snow" thread from you anytime soon. I'm assuming you have the Advans still on your car. If so, they are horrible in the snow. So bad that a 400whp Cobra is actually better in the snow than the EVO. I know from experience...

You've made the right choice
I hear ya, we had 4" of snow today and balding all-seasons didn't cut it. Ordered Blizzak WS-50's from the TireRack tonight!
