nice to join the forums!


picked up an evo V a few months back...





very raw and fun to drive car.


Then someone decided to fall asleep behind the wheel and rear end the car..





now im waiting for the car to come back from the body shop.. won't be done till late september...







collecting more parts in the mean time.

Looking to do Tomei arms turbo upgrade in the future.

also looking to replace the struts as well. Car came with tein S tech springs (more than adequate for street) but the front left shock is getting weak...

looking to replace all four.... any suggestions? I dont think bilstein makes any thing for these older evos.... and I don't like the idea of coils!

 

nice lookin ride!

 

Man I wanna see this thing in person! Love Evo Vs, so glad to see these finally here

 

Very nice!

 

have you looked at konis at all ?

 

Really love the 5's

 

Thanks guys!


I have looked at konis. I have ordered a new front pair of Koni Yellow inserts, however, the rears are mirage only, and I couldnt find the rear pairs for sale that are for Evos.

I'll order the fronts for now as the front left corner has a weak shock!

 

I do plenty of stuff to fit the Evo 4-6 including coilovers and brakes as well as the obvious carbon items.

Have a look on the website and see what you think:

Although I'm in the UK, the shipping generally isn't that bad to get things over the pond.

 

^ curious, is there a carbon fibre replacement of the centre spoiler piece for the Evo 5/6 that has a different shape compared to stock?

an oem ish shape with the gurney flap curve on the back would be nice!

 

Yes there is:

Cheap it isn't but it is some of the highest quality carbon I've ever seen and it is race proven to be effective.

 

exactly what im looking for... but a bit pricey for a wing insert piece

 

Looks tough

had a go at getting my exhaust manifold heat shield off today, no luck

got any engine bay shots?

 

No bay shots as of right now. the car is pretty stock, down to the airbox!


Only real mod is the lowering springs that came with the car and the HKS Silent Hi power cat back

 

wish i could have one of those <3

 

Nice V, cant wait for mine to be done Love the older evos .....sry about the person rear ending you you must have been pissed!! Post up when she's all done and beautiful !!
