So after months of thinking and planning i finally got rid of the GTS and got a base WW evo X!! im soo happy! my first evo! and coming back from havent drivin stick in a loooong time. can u smell the clutch burning? anyways like their ad SMASH! Southcoast gave me a pretty good deal for the GTS and evoX! ill try to get pics later on...wanna get it as dirty as possible then wash it.

so here's the question..

1) 1 to 2 shifting, is that normal?!?! X owners know what im talking about. Can it be fix?

2) during break-in period. do i driving below 60? or below 5k?

3) good BOV? an adjustable one. the wifes already afraid of the car

4) ASC on or off? and how do you know? please explain

more questions will come later

 

sorry, i really dont want to change subjects, but im curious, out the door price?

 

1st to 2nd is normal, you'll adapt to it's pickiness! Tac it up, break it in a little, I wouldn't launch or rip on it to much though! I always drive with ASC, ALWAYS! Congrats, I too went from the GTS to EVO X.

 

Congrats man, I dont plan on getting a EVO X anytime. EVO IX is good enough for me.

 

stay below 5k... always warm up the car... if you are on the street keep asc on...and if you must just hit the button which will turn off asc unless you step on the breaks...(holding it down turns it off completely)..now if you are off road...ASC deffinatly needs to be off!

 

thanks for the reply guys. im loving this car every minute! definitely a jump from 115hp i guess ill have to live with the 1->2 problem. anyways as long as i stay below 5k, i can still drive 80mph and still be good?


hey Enjoitk, my OTD was 33,xxx+upside down on the GTS, they gave me 16k for it and i owe 17k!

 

? mormon?

 

They gave me 17k for my GTS, I had 9k on her and the 1, 2 problem is a driver issue, not transmission related issue, the smoother and faster you release the clutch the better it feels, I still jump it around from time to time, it's going to take some practice.

 

It's not a driver issue, it's trans related. sure there's ways to make it smoother, but it's the car. It goes away after some shifting in mine.

 

is this title misleading? If you're a satisfied customer tell us why. If you have questions about the X search.

 

"""anyways like their ad SMASH! Southcoast gave me a pretty good deal for the GTS and evoX!"""

 

thats an amazing deal they have right now. I'm just waiting to sell my car and then I'm ordering mine.

 

I no longer have the issue unless I'm not paying attention to my clutch work, not to mention the higher the revs the less jerk.

 

good to hear that the problem goes away after awhile. maybe i need to break it in some more. barely have 150miles on it

 

I didn't do my research and went to Huntington Beach Mitsu instead. I got the Evo X GSR with SSS for 33K out the door which is not bad. But I've heard South Coast has been more aggressive, giving free Wind Deflectors etc..
