New evo!!

Well this is my fourth evo now. I recently just sold my other and told myself that was it for good! Well I just happen to come across this one. I saw it sitting in a front yard and knew it needed some work. I talked to the kid that owned it and he just happened to say he had it for a month and crashed it. Asked him if he was selling it and he said he was parting it out. So I inspected the car and saw that the radiator support wasn't even damaged. Well apparently the car was in a 10 mph crash so insurance quoted him 18k to fix. lol

So anyway long story short I bought the car for a cool 3,000 dollars. I knew it needed a few things so I went on the hunt. Total I put 800 into it and that's including the Greddy Ti exhaust on it. So let me know what you guys think. I had to get a lip for my front bumper so it's black for now. lol


the pic with the motor is for the people who obviously thought I bought this car for 3,000 put together or something.. When I got the car it had no fenders, lights,bumper,intercooler,piping,exhaust,hood, etc.

I bought all the parts and put this thing together myself!

Well the kid really didn't realize what he had i guess and rather then just parting it out I thought I would save it's life. I have my mind set to just put a bbk-b turbo in it to spice things up a little.

Naw. I think it was meant for me to have this one. i already have injectors, 3port, walbro fp , and the gsc s2 coming for it. I figure since i got it so cheap I can play with it.

I found another one locally with cams , rims etc . Guy blew the block .. Wanted 5,000 I talked him to 3,000 but I had no room in my garage. I see deals like these all the time due to recession. I was gonna buy that one and resell it.
