Bought 2006 Evolution, black MR, want to know previous owner tuned the car
Car is still at the dealer. They are fixing the seal between the transfer case and the transmission,for the second time. Under warranty. Kinda nice...I heard its a major problem with these things. Dieing to drive it though. Stuck in a Nissan sentra rental for now.
just an update
Car is doing great, got it retuned it was running lean on 20% compensation. now shes a happy girl and still under 6k mile warranty through the nissan dealer or 6 months haha kinda nice, they are fixing a transfercase tranny seal for the third time. so i am driving a nissan sentra meanwhile 2013...also kinda nice.

Is the Tcase leaking oil inbetween the trans and Tcase or is the Tcase getting filled with Trans oil?? If the Tcase is getting filled with trans oil it will leak, from the seals and vent. Also there is a inner seal inside the Tcase that trans fluid runs thru to the passanger side bearing of the Tcase, this is why my IX tcase blew the seal was blown and let trans fluid into the Tcase and it kept coming out everywhere even after i replaced the seal on the drivers side. I didnt see how the oiling was untill i took the Tcase totally apart and followed the Oil passage, hense the small O-ring on the Tcase to Trans :/

Sketchy since you will probably never know the car's history. You could easily still fall into the 99% from above, and still have to sink a ton of money into it. I hope it all turns out well for you.
I completely agree... but I'm also concerned that you're buying it from a dealer, who more than likely, knows next to nothing about aftermarket performance tuning while repairing it. It's good that it's under warranty, but I'm not so sure they're the ones that should be gremlin hunting under your hood.
