Hey guys what's up. Wanted to share some on experience on modding my chassis and suspenion so far building this evo 9..I learned a lot and hope I can help others. If needed
Here we go

So I bought 4 brand new complete bilstein b6 hd struts in all 4 corners.. the kyb stock suspension was just not cutting it





Then I put Tanabe gf210 springs on them which lowered the car about 1.5 inch all around..good ride








So after 10k miles of driving. I told my self I wanted better suspenion. More adjustability. More low
So I bought d2 coilovers




Car was amazing riding and handling with the bilstein. But nothing like the coilovers...
Next I bought the complete energy suspension master bushings kit..Holy crap what a pain in the a"'" it was installing these. Thank to a good friend with shop press made it much easier.













To be continued

 

Here is more pics from my bushing installed. Energy suspenion. Doesn't make the rear lower and upper controll arm bushings for evo..also doesn't make rear bump steer kit.. so look no further I called whiteline.



Rear lower controll arm with white line bushing


Bumpsteer kit installed


Rear mustache bar painted with bushing press in





To be continued

 

Here we go with more

Front controll arm done.


While I had them out I ordered white line roll center kit..2 ball joints 2 tierods.





Also went to mitsubishi and bought all the camber bolts and etc..do it right the first time..




Evo 7 tails lights installed..a buddy of mine lives in Australia so we swapped mine evo 9 for his evo 7







Continued

 

So I started working on the rear diff..figured I start with rearrange the factory plates..and if this doesn't work do a tre maxx lock from tre



Wasn't so bad pulling out. Recommend that u have a friend or 2 around with this








Came across a good deal on a rtp tuned. Ultra racing rear strut tower bar to tighten things up

Ordered my ams core


Stock vs ams core


Looks good. Core bolts on like oem. Good job ams..


New o2 dump

 

More parts are coming in daily. Will continue to provide pics and details

 

Good stuff. Whats the difference in feeling with the energy bushings? I'm still on all stock bushing so it's something I def want to do in the future.

 

nice dude...must feel like a kid on christmas lol...****, i just ordered a thermostat for my car and im excited...i must be getting old...lol...

 

I got that same feel when I got new lug nuts haha.

 

the bushings made the biggest difference. bigger differenece over coilovers thats for sure.. i totally recomend doing the bushings to the evo. just keep in mind that uhave proper tools to do the job

 

What was it like to drive before and after the bushes?

 

Before with the stock bushings. It felt spongy. .the new bushings feel stuff. No chassis play. Car feels like on rails.

 

New ma perfomance lip to ad to my ams front mount

 

Very nice! there is a section dedicated to this though...

 

This is like a bolt on build, keep it coming great pics
