Evo 4 newbie, desperate need of help on buying parts
So I recently purchased a 1996 Evo 4 and it's my very first jdm car so I'm about as new as it gets to the Japanese car scene, let alone the Evolution scene. I have done tons of research and can't seem to find any good sources for buying aftermarket parts (I live in Canada) for this particular Evo and it's stressing me out. If any other Evo 4 owners could shed some light as to where I should look for parts it would be a life saver I'm very desperate and eager to mod this car. I'm looking for things coilovers, a bov, intake, gauges etc etc etc. Let me know!!! (:

Some of the guys have used PartSouq to buy their parts. I use their site to ID parts

I could tell you the answer, but I think you should do your research on this first. A lot of parts are either universal or carry over from the USDM Evo 8/9. Lots are Japan-only, but can be purchased easily from Canada. Go part-by-part and find out what works; some parts "importers" will probably hose you badly because you didn't find better sources.

Since I got called out on not being helpful, I'll do what I can. Not many parameters were given on requirements and budget, so I can't guarantee these are the best results.
Coilovers: https://www.rhdjapan.com/cusco-stree...-kit-cn9a.html
Decent basic intake: https://apexi-usa.com/power-intake-k...ncer-evo-4-5-6 (though I would probably find a solution that replaces everything pre-turbo)
BOV: http://www.turbosmartdirect.com/Prod...-to-X-Red.html (find a dealer based on the part number). Don't get a BOV that vents to atmosphere, your ECU will not like it if the car isn't tuned for it.
Gauges: anywhere. I recommend EXTREMEPSI because they have a ton of selection and are usually priced ok.
