long story short ... im looking to get a evo8 gsr. Loved the car ever since it came to the states and finally will have a chance to get 1!! im excited to say the least.

just had a few noob questions

1) can aftermarket springs be used with stock evo 8 gsr shocks? or is it recommended to get some aftermarket shocks?

2) im looking to do basic bolt ons and a vishnu chip ....... and the car will be daily drivin
< this a good idea for a daily drivin car? Im heavy when it comes to reliability. Would u recomend a better fuel pump for the boltons and vishnu chip

3) any common problems/complaints about the evo 8 gsr? anything at all? even stupid things i dont care

 

Theres tons of diffrent things to look for when buying a new car. Evo's are can be beat on so make sure its not in the wrong hands. I would recommend to search the forums to discover more info on what to look for. If you get the evo from privite party you should take it to the dealer or shop that specializes in evos, and have them look it over. Good luck

 

your fuel pump will be good till above the 300whp range. as for bolts on if your gonna dd but still want to have some fun i would go with a tbe, filter mbc and get a tune instead of the chip buts thats just me,

 

Searching these forums will net you a better answer then posting.

 

i plan on getting it from a dealer .... and car fax of course

ok thanks .... whats the best tunning software in your opinion for the evo? Im a (former) honda guy and hondata worked the best for hondas ..... anything that works best for the evo
