Hi folks,

My names marc I'm 21 and from scotland

New to the forum and new to evo ownership!

I shall cut to the chase, I had a astra vxr for a while decided to sell it to buy an evo, wanted one for many years, finally plucked up the courage to get one!

Anyway blah blah blah I would be grateful for some advice on mods, the evo has already...

Previous owners has had fitted...

- organic racing clutch
- short shift gearbox(dunno if this comes standard or not?)
-decat turbo back exhaust, upgraded manifold
- hks dump valve ect
- front strut.

Now advice on lowering it? I am keen to get it down lower but not to a stage where it starts to cause issues, driveshaft ect.

Also intersted in a set of xxr wheels in custom gunmetal grey

Any good remaps I would Benifit from

Thanks guys!


Old vxr



Evo on the day I picked it up



Trip upto St. Andrews

May have wanted to put this in the EvoM newbie / FAQ forum, but nonetheless, congrats on the car. Be careful of the mod bug. It bites... hard!

Is that a carbon fiber roof? Looks like it needs a reclear but that's sexy I want to get a cf roof!

 

Oops I shall put it up on there!

And to the boy asking about the roof, it's not cf roof it's black, sun kinda made it look grey in that pic but was done recently, have a cf Fq style wind breaker things on the back of the roof, don't know what they are called haha.

Cheers folks
