Talking What do you guys think?!

So I got my girlfriend a Nikon D3200 for christmas and it was a nice day so I decided to try it out. Over the past 9 month or so I have been building my evo and finally got it running on New Years eve. Its only on a base tune but i'm still very happy to be back behind the wheel. I did not take any engine bay pictures because the bay is still dirty as heck. I have put a lot of wrench time into this car and am very proud of it. Let me know what you think!

What cage do you have the you can keep the rear seats? What has to be done to keep them? Pm me if you want. Digging the car man, it looks great white on white. I think evo 7 tails would set it off perfectly

Thanks for the love guys. The wheels are Work Emotion Kiwami's also known as the CR Ultimate's. They are 18x9.5 +20 offset with 255/35/18 bridgestone tires. The car is sitting on Tein flex coilovers.

Looks to be a Autopower 4pt like what I'm running as well... you need to cut the wire bracing in the back of the seats and get it out of the way so its just foam and can move easily around the rear bars... At least that is what I did to get my rear seats back there! I only put them back because I wanted to reduce some noise!


To the OP. Car looks really good! Congrats on getting it back on the road in time for the new year

Great job. Car looks great and I like the subtle details such as the lug nuts.

I sent him a PM explaining the same thing. I took out some foam with a razor as well. I cant wait to get til March when the car goes to Boostin. Hoping to see decent power to the tires. Built 2.0, built tranny, built transfer case, PTE 6262, E85, and lots of boost.

More importantly, I hope it pulls like a freight train.

Sitting behind the cage seems like a terrible idea.
Car looks great otherwise!

It is the autopower 4 point cage. It can be welded or bolted in. I chose to weld it in.

I would never put anybody back there. The car did not look right without the back seats. So I put them back in. Being a senior in college the only thing that rides back there is my book bag. That is when I drive the car. I am fortunate enough to have a daily and a toy.

Looks great. Got that track day thing going on. Hey, you would be our first w/a welded in AP cage

Can you take a picture of the welded areas along w/some overall pics of your EVO
& post them up here. The guys would appreciate it

Nope mine is welded and bolted as well. I posted some pics of it in another thread but I am currently undergoing a full custom cage that will be NASA and SCCA approved.
