Still running a 9.8 hotside on the VIII? If so those are some serious power numbers.
Forgot to mention it has a 9 turbo

Had all the seats, panels, speakers etc swapped into it from an SSL. However, did not like the leather seats, so swapped to some bride low max.

I didn't like the all leather fronts either(too slippery)..sold them and bought some 9 leather/suede fronts

Ive had 4 EVOs and currently have 2. My first one was a brand new TB EVO IX SSL off the showroom floor in 2006. I had it for awhile then sold it. Then bought a 03 LY EVO 8 in 2008. Stock block/Head on a 35R with supporting mods, definetly was a sleeper. Sold that then bought my black car that I currently have now that ive built for the last 4-5 years. Best pass 8.98@167. A lot changes being made for 2013. Then recently this past summer, picked up a WW IX RS. Ive always wanted a white EVO.

I dont have pics on my first black IX, but have a pic of the yellow car:


1.

"Junk Box"





WW 9 RS:

WW 9 RS:


That was a killer line up. One's the drag car, and one's to get the groceries?
I love love the LY one too. I'm thinking yellow will be my next one. Great cars man.

What's the parts list for each?
Any build threads?

Well I'm just stating the fact, because I have seen more than a few guys now say that they have an 03 SSL when that car simply never existed. That's no different than me putting Bilsteins, MR BBS, and a 6 speed in an 03-04 and calling it an MR. It just isn't so.

Nice car though. Looks like you have fun with it
