i think it would be better if it stayed a solid color...get rid of pepsi decals...and put back the recaros....

 

Is it just me or that a Turbo XS intercooler in there? If so that may hint to one badass evo under the hood?

Then again it could just be another all show no go car. IMO paint the cf kit to match car but leave a part on the front under the IC or something straigh cf. I think that would be the best course of action. Removing all stickers is a must.

Why would they change the Recaros to Sparcos? That's a waste...

 

maybe because sparco payed them to? =P

 

In case this wasn't answered yet Hobie, this is just a show car. I saw it in person at the Hot Import Nights in Orlando a couple weekends back. It was the only other evo on display besides ... yours truly. The car looked good but there were some things that really bothered me, such as the wing -- looks like a carbon fiber version of the wing on the USDM STI The seats, as mentioned earlier have been swapped to Sparco -- they look fantastic but let me tell u people that they are NOT NEARLY as comfortable as our recaro's ... this was not just my opinion either .... at least 10 other people sat in this Veilside Pepsi evo and then sat in mine for a comparison. The result: I didn't hear even 1 of them prefer the "feel" of the sparco ... next, the carbon fiber snap on body kit looked just that -- snap on instead of like it should be on the car. It seemed to lack that custom/natural look. I'm sure there are MANY JDM body kits for our car that just blow that crap out of the water. Lastly, the wheels and tires are really nice .... and the angle-back exhaust looked good but I can't recall what manuf. it was ... although i looked under the car and it only had the cat back ... the rest was stock. I asked the gentleman in charge of the booth some questions in regard to "why" he chose to mod the car the way he did ... and he claimed that Pepsi gave him a list of things to do along with a corporate credit card, and that's about it. I'm a Tropicana (Pepsi) employee ... y can't i be this lucky.

 

EVO1, I hear ya bro.. When you showed it to me, I was crazy about the front lip.. But everything else had to go... I dunno, after owning a blue WRX, I don't really like the blue on the EVO's.. It looks as if it doesn't belong on that car.. SORRY BLUE GUYS... How did you do BTW EVO1??

 

I actually like the veilside kit although I think even on a black car it will look better in body color. Anyone have any idea if it can be installed so that it can be easily removed in winter?

 

I love that kit!!!! Silver, White, or Black would be the best colors

 

I bet Sparco flipped a grip of cash to have their seats showcased.

 

I think that Evo is tight! Makes me want a pepsi.

 

dude, swifty, thanks so much for getting pics of this evo, this is the one i was trying to tell you guys about in the forum about cf front air splitters or what not, saw it at HIN in Houston, must say that the side pieces of the body kit on the front and back of the doors looked a bit much for me, but the front splitter had a very solid look to it, wouldn't mind getting that piece alone.

 

No prizes for me because I am too close to stock ... but our club took home 13 out of 15 awards! Like I was tellin' ya, my bud w/ the 3rd gen RX-7 wins best of show every time ... and yes he did it again. Overall it was a great time John .... would do it again in a heartbeat.

 

Veilside makes such nice S%$

 

not feeling the car at all... maybe it's because of the graphics/decals
