Hey...Buddy...its not old news this is another update ...first it sucked....then it hit 55 seconds..and if you look on HKS website it says "new" right next to it....and wasn't there a few days ago .....so yeah...now they got into the 54 second range. But i am sure you knew that since you are "Mitchubishi " ....oh **** ....you spelled it wrong
Thanks for the flame evodave, I'm glad you knew your **** before you attempted to harass my post . And like mentioned before, there was a thread earlier about the new lap time, which if I remember correctly was posted about a month ago? Anyway, it doesn't matter how long HKS takes to put it on there site, that doesn't mean they were the first to announce it. Many japanese magazines were on the story as quick as they could and published it in the blink of an eye.

As for you, d evolved one, what kinda of question is that? It's made by HKS; it's gotta be a good engine to compliment the amazing body .

No other car in its class can get within a 1/4 second of it. That is incredible when you think about how prestigious holding that record is in Japan. Every tuning house in the country wants this record.

It says fastest in its class. What cars are in a faster class, and how much faster are their times? Just curious as to how the Evo compares to the absolute fastest...

Reading these things just makes me proud to own the Evo.

The last post that i remeber about the hks evo was that it hit like 58 or 59 seconds on its first shake down run and that was from the last options magazine so it hitting 54 would have to be pretty recent unless someone can show me the post about it hitting 54's a month ago, than this is new
