Got my Evo

Well, bought my RR IX MR last week from Mark at South Coast Mitsu and being a newb, decided I'd introduce myself. I've been driving it all last week and am happy to say that I'm glad I bought this car. Can't wait for the 600 mile break-in period to be over so that I can finally get on it and jizz in my pants as I experience full boost for the first time. I know that someone's gonna say "This thread is worthless without pics" so here's one eventhough we all know what it looks like.



One.

To be honest I would wait more than the 50 miles, your just asking for a sore wallet down the road, I would wait until you get at least 1200 miles on the meter. I 'm just saying it because I remember the first week I drove my Evo home, don't make the feeling go away forever with rash move.

Congratulations! 600 miles is all you need for a proper break-in. By the way, how much is super unleaded in Garden Grove?

Sore wallet?!? What the hell are you talking about... prove to me that driving the car off the lot full boost and 2 miles on the odometer does anything to the engine, longterm, otherwise you are full of it. I would have been boosting by now, all the way to redline, this isn't no puss engine, its a fuc|<ing 4g63. I'll be honest I did wait until 600 miles, but it had 90 on it when I bought it, so you can bet that those stupid salesmen where all over the boost. But hey, 46k miles and no problems... AT ALL.

Hey just giving some friendly advice, for those who would like to keep the car for awhile. Too each his own, jeez I guess some member's know it all. When the engine starts having problems, suck up the tears!

Super Unleaded in Garden Grove is 2.959 as of 4/7. As for all this break-in madness, the manual says 600, so I'm sticking to 600. Didn't think it would start all this arguing. Can't we all just get along man. Peace Out!
