Pulled my 8.5MR out of storage and discovered it was beyond filthy. I've stopped driving my Evo after baby #2 arrived and we got a new car. It's been horribly neglected and today i decided to give her some love. I have a few things planned am anxious to get her going again.

What do you guys think??

 

Looks great! Good to see another clean evo out and driven like it should. Congrats on the new chapter and good luck.

 

looks really good, love the jdm headlights and side markers

 

Car looks great! 8.5 ??

 

evo 8 with 9 front bumper ^^^ lol typically 240sx guys use this sorta designation

 

Not quite... I swapped in a MIVEC 4G63 a few years ago and it did at one point have a full 9 SE interior.

 

Heart transplant.

Best decision i ever made with this car.

 

Here she was back in 2010-2011.

 

Understood, thanks! Very NICE!

 

Why did you stop driving it? It's the perfect family car.

 

It's horrible on gas and the wife hates riding in it lol.

We normally take the Prius or Sienna and it literally sucks the soul out of me....

 

Coilovers

I have a set of Fortune auto 500 Broadway Static Edition Coilovers for sale btw.

 

Gorgeous, pm if you ever decide to let her go

 

did you part it out then put it in storage?

 

I parted it out with every intention to sell it but i just couldn't bring myself to do it.... After the baby arrived and we picked up a Prius i hardly drove it anymore. It sat in my garage for over 9 months with occassional drives here and there.

Now that the baby is older i started taking it out more often to and from work and i miss it. 260-275 miles on a single tank and premium fuel is a far cry from my Prius which averages 470-520 miles to a tank on regular fuel.
