My 03 TB Evo 8

New member here and @MinusPrevious told me to post up some pics so why not.

Mods
Car is pretty much FBO and made 303 on stock 9.8 turbo lol. Got an FP manifold, Evo 9 spinny boy, and MAP o2 dump to throw on just dreading pulling the trigger on some injectors and a fuel pump to go dual map. Need cams and valve train upgrades too. Got a sweet deal from one of the people I work with who had an Evo back when they first came out and he sold me his greddy type S for 60 bucks so gonna be rocking that Brian O’Connor swag on em lmao. I recently got an OSG rear diff from an og member @kyoo here so I gotta throw that in too and I need to source a front LSD because Mitsu said F the first evos in America no front lsd for them. I’m also searching heavy for an greddy ti rolled tip exhaust(my dream exhaust) I hate tomeis lol so if anyone got one anywhere I’ll pay shipping and a reasonable asking price for it lol.
Exterior
Pretty old school and basic setup in terms of exterior IMO 5zigens really brings out that 00’s look lmao. I got a carbon “varis” front lip by VIS but the roads are trash here in SoCal(I’ve blown up two poly lips already) so not gonna throw that on anytime soon. I currently have rexpeed ganador reps on, but I just received my real pair of ganadors today . Also need tires for my RG2s 18x9 +29 so that would still be a pretty og look too, but pretty rare these days. I really need a jdm rear bumper lmao and jdm headlights but everybody taxes for those things lol.
Interior Almost a full 9 interior swap (even the cup holders lmao) just missing the steering wheel but idc about that lol. Pioneer double din head unit and a fat ol sub in the trunk but it’s not working so I might rip it out for that weight. A long shot but I’m really looking for SE seats tbh and I’d be willing to trade my 9 seats and some cash for someone’s SE seats if anyone is down lol.
Suspension
My suspension is pretty basic as well Feal 441s coils, Whiteline 26mm F/R sway bars, Whiteline RCA kit, and Megan adjustable toe arms. I got some nagisa auto fender braces not installed but soon enough I’ll get around to put em on(wondering if they actually do anything tho).

I’m really fw the period correct mods and look for cars in general so that’s what my build is based around, but not entirely limited to it being “old” mods only. And if you’re wondering why my name has the fd3s chassis code in it, I also have an rx7 but the motors blown just like every other rotary car so go figure lol. Just recently picked up a taco for a daily since my evo just hit 150k 0.o so I’m also scared to make more power since it’s getting up there in mileage, but whatever yolo. Hope you enjoyed reading about my evo or if you just skipped it and looked at my ugly duckling of an Evo that’s coo too. Thanks
