Well, 14 gallons wouldnt be that bad. The most i ever put in my evo, was about 12 gallons or so, which is about 44 liter's. Another 10 liter's wouldnt be bad, its not like you're driving all day with a full tank, and when you go to the track you dont fill it up.

haha, were you completely dry in the tank or wat? hehe
every time i filled up so far after the empty light came on, i'd put in about 44 liters, which is about 12 gallons. I guess the reserve part is another 10 liters? ;o good to know.. gotta test that out one day, see how far i get with some gas in the trunk in case it stops hehe

Yea i have the frog eye gauges right in front of my gas gauge and check lights! its a really bad design.. i didn't notice until i started to sputter along.. it was the first time its ever happened to me but i guess i was side tracked by other things lol. so i guess its a 14 gal tank

I expected the turning radius to be much better before buying mine too. I mean it's a small car it's what's expected but you're right it sucks! The rough ride is expected it's meant to peform on a track I like the recaro seats and if I wanted cruse control, leather interior, moon roof, luxury, etc I'd buy a different car. An evo is meant to be an evo. That's all :P

The SSL package which includes leather interior, moonroof, and a sub.

Which I have and take to the track, less the sub and other dead weight.
It's a daily driver that doubles as a track car, not the other way around.

Nothing wrong with "luxury".

Didn't the RS get the aluminum roof along with MR in 2005?

Is anyone else's air vents kind of weak compared to other cars? Like any setting 1 through 4 isn't that strong in my car.

Wish I had a decent sound system to boot with the car.
