the UK one is sick, theres a plus and minus to it. im not sure if you can run it with our US spec evos due to it being auto climate control. which is awesome only if we can get it to work. im not sure what needs to be done to convert. but yes, lancers suck, and usdm mitsu sucks. still love my evo. ....... ive seen many use galant climate contols.

it's not so simple to change it, you need JDM or EDM wireing under dashboard and you also need to change almos all parts from your air system under dashboard

Nope cant use it. The us market evos have a manual or cable driven heater while the uk and jdm market have an electronic heater core. THe only way you might be able to do it is to spend $1500 plus to find them and retro fit them into place. and thats if you do it yourself

Why do the Japanese f-us over when it comes to cars? Ever Japanese car I've owned is like this. They always keep the better faster versions on their side of the pond! GAHHH
