gerth - Is that brand new? Who is the vendor? If so, Thats a deal!

 

Yea, i'm actually not going anymore....gotta get some sleep, will still run at the autox though.

 

Ok, I'm confused, you're not going to the drag strip or the autox?

 

Haha, i'm going to both, EvoIXMR was talking about perkins sunday morning.

 

Ah ok, yea I'm getting hooked-on-phonics for x-mas this year

 

I believe the girl with the silver one is married, She is damn hot though! The Red One I saw sounds like the car you described, I added the sonic hedge hog piece to my '04 as well. I also saw a black one today in West Des Moines. I stopped and talked to a the guy that had the red one that ended up Gabus several times--I think he was having trouble with the clutch when he traded it. I'm hoping that gabus took care of that before putting it on the lot. Did the guy that traded his Z for the Evo used to have the blue one?

I am getting the Evo up and running again this weekend, definitely hoping you guys have some kind of event, I might need some 3rd party opinion on a couple of issues. My wide open throttle causes the car to run rough. I can avoid the issue if I don't go 100% but its definitely odd. I'm wishing I would have stuck with one company in my mod process so at least there would be some commonality with what people have already done.

 

1 black: my buddy Kevin - firefighter.
1 Silver: I am yet to see her up close.
4 Red: Some guy and gal, grandma and grandpa evo, gerth and you
3 grey - Tim, me and mystery person
2 White - Guy from norwalk, another one in West Des Moines

 

<---silver

But its been in my Garage since November with issues. I was in Virginia working on a contract for the last 6-7 months.

 

Anybody heard if the Iowa Raceway is going to have track days with open entry?

 

<---- REd One from Gabus, yes that was my blue 350z that i traded in. AS for a clutch issue the clutch seems to work ok, however i have not driven any other evo so im not sure. If i launch hard on it the clutch will not catch, i have done that twice now GRRRR, but other than that it seems ok.

Sounds like to me this kid couldn't drive for sure and abused the car a little bit. This is one reason why i will never buy used again, my last 2 have been new and i know on new ones you get screwed for value but dammit you know its brand new and never been beat on. But oh well it works fine for me and if anything breaks i will just replace it with aftermarket, that and i have warranty....for now.

 

I'm am considering selling my 05 white evo, In an attempt to help pay for my new house.
The car has 13,000 miles and would come with:
-ams turbo back exhaust with test pipe
-ams lower intercooler pipe
-greddy turbo timer
-b&m short shifter
-autometer boost and air fuel gauge.
I took the car to AMS in chicago to have it dynoed and flashed back in April, the car made 310 horsepower and 310 torque at the wheels when flashed for 93 octane.
I'm am only thinking of selling the car for right now, but if I did sell it I would probably try to get around 27,000-28,000 (Do you think thats to high?)
Also if anyone is intrested or has any advice let me know.
I dont really want to sell it but it sure would be nice to get my house payment down.
oh yeah, I live in norwalk
-Thanks, Josh

 

It sounds like Gabus must have fixed it, I'm pretty sure it was about 98% toast from talking to the previous owner. I looked at your Z a couple of weeks ago. I decided to take the plunge and bought a new G35coupe instead. I still love the Evo but I think the G is easier to drive in many respects. I doubt I'm going to get into modifying another car again (at least for a while), its just nice to get in, turn the key and not worry about the A/F ratio!

I have a long day tomorrow of getting the Evo put back together. I haven't decided to put the undertray back on yet, I hate taking it off.

 

Josh,

Did I run into you one night downtown shortly after you bought your Evo?

 

Ryan,
Yeah that was me downtown last fall i believe.

 

Was good meeting many of you on Sunday!
