Evolutionm impactblue here

Okay everyone I know im not so new here but heres my progress so far. I recently brought this evolution 9 salvaged heres a couple of pictures when I first got her. She was in pretty bad shape I thought all was lost the last person who had her treated it badly.

kinda makes me wondered is the last owner survived

the lower control arm snapped right off and both front wheels were deflated and both rims cracked
this is why you dont let kids drive these cars who are wreckless they are just irresponsible both airbags deployed know know what they hit
there was glass everywhere took me hours to clean her out properly.
the motor was good but I didnt start it up fearing that something else was ****ed up too.
the mileage
the front end was in need of a serious make-over.

So i decided to make her mine and try to help her



clean motors make me happy
broken parts from the last ******* driving it dont.....


After performing a study of how things were going the last ******* who had it bend up the chasis so I had to straighten it out


pulled the frame doors back in place now
all the glass shattered on impact except for 2 the passenger front and the rear windshield
looks like a bullet hole on the rear window upper left hand corner
thats all for now folks! but I still need your help evolutionm.net dont let this car die in vain sell me a decently priced acd pump and other parts to help revive this once lost soul from the dead to become reborn again to a more responsible owner will will take care of it. Thankyou for viewing stay tuned

I plan on keeping it stock for awhile and everyone is helping me here with parts im very greatful. Im also greatful for the vast amounts of knowledge available for this car on this site.

It's definitely a higher class of mature people. I plan to get it at 350whp but I wonder who to go to or how to go about it. I know the 8 is different from the 9 but what will it take to get me there. Not only that how much will it cost because parts for this car heh whole nother story.

Okay everyone in here for an update just letting everyone know what's new.

Okay here we have the frame of the chasis all straightened out

a bit of a close up

just a couple of parts added on here with the help of evolutionm.net

heres the acd pump installed

got the chargepipe on the drivers side up to date since it was crushed

all covered up before she sleeps ready to go under the knife


What I did recently I made sure the car recieved:
-filled up with radiator fluid found out it had a slight leak going to drain and replace radiator.
- filled up with the fluids in the acd.
- threw in some motor oil to get me by for now until its ready to get changed.
-extended a cut chargepipe where I got from a shop not much help at all.
-changed and bled the front calipers can never be to sure and better safe than sorry.


Thankyou for viewing stay tuned next is changing the radiator,installing headlights and paint along with windshield and glass windows for 3 doors and im done. Wish me luck and stay tuned
