Evo RS part prices?

Does anyone know the price of RS parts?
Particularly, the RS front LSD & trunk bar?

Anyone got shop manual on the RS?

Thanks,

Ever notice that no one replies to posts regarding RS parts?
Dissapointing. I have been trying to get someone to post the part # for the front diff for a while no with no luck. Just speculations and "I heard..." or the like. Oh well. I'm gonna find it on my own. When I do, I'll post it up here for all of you Evomaniacs.......

It's probably because the parts aren't stocked/itemized yet... Hell, the cars aren't even here yet. Give it a few months and you'll be ok.

Yep, none of the guys I've spoken with at Mitsu Parts Counters have any information on the car yet, I'm sure you will see a lot of posts about it when they do.

Ahh.... sorry... too anxious... I'll wait until RS is starting to show
up at the dealers...

Anyways, RS is classed in AS for autocrosses... same as EVO8...
which should mean that EVO8 could put on RS upgrades w/o
being bump to another class... I hope.

One of the vendors here carries the trunk bar. It's like $75 or so.

It doesn't work like that. For Stock classes you can't mix'n'match parts from different models, the conversion must be 100%, so you'd have to remove the a/c, power locks/windows, repaint the mirrors/door handles, remove sound-proofing, everything. If you're competitive you'll get protested immediately otherwise.

Nope. You can't add that unless it is standard on a regular Evo, which it's not. The absence of a rule means it's verboten.

nope, no update/backdate rules in stock class that I am aware of. You are allowed to convert your EVO to an EVO rs, but the conversion has to be a complete retrofit, Diff, doors, rear trunk wing delete, etc...

Update/backdate applies to ESP.
