Need advice from evom.net! 06 Evo 9 SE.
#16
Hey guys,
So im caught up on the Evo9/07Sti deal... just like everyone else. I have read alot of things. Seems like they all have their problems, evo and their trannys, stis and their motors...
Well, I am currently looking at a 2006 Evo 9 SE with 18k miles at a mitsu dealer. Has slight mods, MAF and IC piping. How bad are these trannys as people talk about? Do they go out THAT easily? Like, how much power/mis shifts does it take to break a tranny?
They are asking for 25k, its in Irving TX at Don Herring.. What do you guys think? Link is below, with pics!

Thanks in advanced! I also have searched around both Evom/Nasioc. But still want advice from everyone thats willing to give advice.

I had an 06 sti. Now I have an evo ix. People who know how to drive run 500 HP through the 5 speeds. I a have never heard of the 5 speed being weak. I have heard that the 6 speed is, but I have minor power upgrades and no problems after 20k miles with a 60 foot pound torque increase.
As far a a daily driver my dad has an 05 sti. I took him to dinner for his birthday yesterday, and he sat down and said your seats are much more comfortable than mine.

The Evo trannies in reality take a TON of abuse as long as you know how to drive. Its a piece of machinery so if you abuse the hell out of it with no care in the world (like a lot of people do) parts will fail and break, if you treat it as it should be treated it will hold up to a lot of power and last for a long time.
