OK, I'll try to answer some of your questions. Here it goes:

Japandk, I got the mudflaps from Scott in the UK. He makes great looking, real kay-leen rally material, mudflaps for evos in a few different colors. Here's the contact email: scott@evo-6.com. Tell him Leo from New York reccomended you and he'll surely wave the shipping costs.

Soleman20, I'm sorry but I am no longer answering that question. I've been asked that same question a million times at the show, and basically everywhere I go. It's really starting to annoy me. But I can tell you that I paid 25K at the time I got it.

MichaelK, funny **** bro. She's pretty standard, except for uprated eyelashes, EuroConcept green contact lenses, HKS super flow tanning, etc. No body-kit added, straight up natural.
As far as the bike goes, It's a 00 Ducati 996. Besides the cosmetic changes I made (polishing, color combo, mirrors), I've added a Fast By Ferracci chip, D&D pipes (****ty, but definetely the loudest, vroooooommm!), Ducati Performance filters, Marchesini Mag wheels with Michelin Pilot Cup tires (very sticky when hot ). I know I've done a few other things to it, just can't think of them right now.

OH, MichaelK, I remember way back, I think the first time I ever posted on this forum, you asked for a picture of my tank in New York because the one I had was from a friend (Leigh Plant) who lives in England. Well, I also got these from the ImportXpression site, so here it goes:

Interesting. I swear, all car guys--at least us white boys, that is--seem to all be interested in the same "style" of girl. What is she? My girl looks quite similiar (Thai, though), but yours seems to have a bit of latin love goin' on... just curious.

Tight rides, bro... I'm pickin up a CBR 600 this summer! Yay!

this is some funny ****!! Now we're talkin about girls like cars, f.e.:
"Yo, mine's got the highest suspension and some tight *** new front splitter".... "Nah, forget that, mine has more power than yours in reverse and the induction kit has some very high flowrates"....etc. I did spot the HKS tanning lotion though, make her try some 10W 60 fully synthetic...

Jigga, thanks for the pics of your tank! Now, that's something I NEED, forget a rollcage etc. for my Evo..... well, actually I'll still prefer a cage

O.k., Jigga, you still didn't say what that stand (the whole fair) was all about, OTHER than displaying your vehicles...

MichaelK, my girl also has ported/polished heads, two big PIAA fogs in the front, and great overall lubrification and water injection system. Don't forget the NOS that kicks in usually ten minutes after the first run, I get that cold feeling which indicates that something's leakin!
Come to think of it, there should be a section on this forum where we bull**** about girls and guys straight up using car terminology. That **** would be the most popular section in this forum.

Are you talking about the guys behind the evo that look like they're selling rims? If so, I really don't have a f**kin clue who they were. All I know if that they were pretty pissed everytime I would start the car, killed them with the exhaust fumes. After the second time I started, I would warn them and they would all leave.

Then again, they weren't the only company with a booth on the show. For a more complete listing of all that were there, go to www.ImportXpression.com and check out more about the event if you like.

The wheels I have on are 18" SSR Integrals. I had them machined to fit the vehicle; basically they welded a 5mm spacer to it (so well done you can't even tell there's a spacer there), deepened the holes abit, and I have long high-tensile studs holding them together. Overall geometry was not affected, and the wheels only weigh 15.5lbs.

Evosoul, sorry I missed your comment...

You might need to talk to your local Mitsu dealer and check on that. Otherwise, a bike will always do (trust me)...

Trust me bro, when I was 17 I bought a ****ed up Kawazaki Ninja 600R, thing had been down twice, all aftermarket plastics, missing bottom piece, detonated at 8,000 rpms, and the paint job was absolutely garbage. Nevertheless, I would pull next to any chick, both on the road walking or driving, and just like that number exchanging would take place (with a little persuasion of course).
Actually, I don't tend to give my number out, it was usually just the receiving end. I don't know what it is about bikes that attracts women, and I'm definetely not speaking for all nor the majority of women (please, don't throw any rocks).

OK, here's a personal experience that might convince you. I was driving my brother's car when I was 18 or so. It was a brand new C280 Benz. Pulled next to this girl, this Italian girl named Nicolina, can never forget that name for some reason. I always considered myself having enough game to tackle most women, but no matter what I threw at this girl, she played me soo hard it wasn't even funny (made me feel weird after, that kind of shut down).

Now, about 3 weeks later, was riding my ****ed up ninja down Hempstead Tpke (Long Island, NY), and guess who I see driving her Pathfinder, yep Nicolina and some other girl. This time I didn't even make any approaches, nor signaled or looked towards her, she did all the lookin and signaling. Mind you, she didn't even see my face (helmet), nor did she care, and just like that, I got the digits. Called later that week, met with her a few days after, and she didn't even recognize me from the previous scenario. I made every attempt to hint or let her know subconsciously of what she did to me, but I guess she's just as dumb as they come (blond girl mind you). F**ked her, she took me to her prom, then I dogged her badly. Sorry ladies, but some girls deserve such treatment.

But seriously, I ain't into all that american "culture" but going to a high school prom with a tight-*** cheerleader has always been my dream....hehehehe. Anyone?`

The Evo ain't the best pulling vehicle, although it attracts a lot of attention, well with *some* kind of girls it works well I hear... but usually it's the "what the F**K is THAT" look that one gets with the Evo. Then you go and blow the boyfriends Boxster S to pieces and the look changes, but just a little.

MichaelK, I definetely get the looks when driving my E5. Then again, it's a ****in right hand, jap spec car in the middle of New York. Even mother's with their 2 year old babies strapped to the child seat smile at me. People literally almost crash their cars just to get a better look (yep, higly dangerous for me). I go to my local bodega, or 7-11, whatever, and people buy disposable cameras just to take a picture. Oh, the greatest is exactly what you said, blowing the ****in porshes away, leaving them way the hell back, somewhere between Afghan and Uzbekistan. Actually, I like passing them hard, then hitting the brakes.

Actually, listen to this, this is pretty funny. Just got back from hanging out, A.K.A. sex, with my girl. Got really hungry, something about ****in and trees that gives me the munchies , only thing open was a local 7-11 at Freeport, Long Island. Stopped for a bit, I got a dvd player in the car and we were watching Heat, you know DeNiro and Al (great flick!). Go inside to buy Entenmann's original recipe chocolate chip cookies, a banana for my health freak girl, and some apple juice and water when this spanish guy comes rushin in asking me what the hell was I driving. I tried to explain, he leaves, and I continue shopping. 5 minutes passes, mind you this is at 3 am and everything seems to move at a very slow pace around this time , the same guy comes in begging me to let him take a look inside. I told him to go over there and look, but my girl got the windows shut and doors locked, and she ain't opening them for noone (except me, well, sometimes) . So he's waiting for me to pay the guy for my food, walks with me towards my car, and I notice his car is parked right next to mine. He drives a new Lincoln Navigator, white with some big chrome wheels and a really loud system, at least 10K more than what my car is worth, and I notice his pretty little girlie staring at me hard, wouldn't take her eye off me for a sec. So while the guy is looking inside the car, his girl starts to wave at me, and smile, and flirt, all types of ****, and I'm looking at my girl to see if she's paying attention to what's happening. My girl hates all the attention I get b/c of the car, she just kept watching the movie. This guy starts walking to his car, I walk in mine and sit at the lot for a few more minutes. I told my girl that the guy's woman was literally ****in me with her eyes, and my girl tells me that this girl stared her down as if I was her man and she had just caught me cheating.

Now ain't that some ****... God bless thy Evolution.
