Just installed my black headlights, stance gr pro coilovers and yoko advan ad08 tires and was going to hit the track yersterday, but the trackday was canceled because the circuit was closed for random issues... so with the car ready to get some punishment I went to an auto-x event, it seems that the car was running a "liiiittle" rich hehehe

Very nice. I think that's the first white TME I've seen.

Thanks for the comment guys, i've seen some serious track cars in this thread..
A complete description of what the car and some other photos are in page 13 (https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/8892237-post193.html).

Any advices for suspension, camber and tire pressure for track? (I've stance gr pro coils, yoko advan ad08 235/45/R17)

Right know i'm waiting for some parts i've just order past week:

-Whiteline front and rear swaybars
-Whiteline rear and front endlinks
-Whiteline complete bushing kit
-Powerflex engine mounts
-Cusco under braces
-Works shifter bushings
-Works cluthc and brake lines
-Accusump
-Sparktech sequential non-cdi
-Ams race fuel rail
-Toxic fab exhaust mani & o2 dump (coated)
-Tomei oil baffle
-Cosworth oil scrapper
-GSC race balance shaft
-Mishimoto oil cooler
-Carbon fiber front lip and side skirts


Probably some other stuff in next months, open to any opinions:

-Girodiscs 2pc front and 1pc rear rotors
-Enkei rpf1 or nt03 17x9.5 rims
-Ams intanke mani (is the boomba throttle really "helpful"?)
-GSC S2 cams & ported head
-GSC XR-1.67 2.2L stroker kit
-Quaife front, center and rear diff (does someone know how all of them work together? )
-Exedy Stage 5 clutch (triple disc)
-Carbon fiber trunk and roof
-Cusco roll cage
-Haltech o2 system + digital dash
-BBK-B or FP RED turbo
-SERIOUS weight reduction

Cheers pals, let's see some other track beasts

ps: the autox- event was an open-non championship event where you can run with any rookie or friend that wanted to know how the car goes and what is the sport about; otherwise passengers are forbidden in any pro race

Looks like an autox not a track day? Still hand outside bad lol. Far as answers to your build, startup a thread separate so we don't muddy up this one.

Not a lot of work done on my Evo, it's my summer street car too, Althoug I think it has as many track miles as it does street. I do have a spec miata though.

The miata is fun and cheap to fix, but the Evo is my favorite. You can only go so fast in a miata no matter how good you are on the track. But.. we bought it to compete in SM with our group of friends(Husband and I share it, Evo is mine). We are looking for another one so we can both compete at the same time.

Red flagged?? You think they would really stop everyone on the track at their nearist visable corner worker / station to tell his passenger to keep his hands inside the car???

perhaps black flagged.... i mean if were getting that hard core! LOL

awesome evo btw, huge fan of the pre-american market track evos!

Ah, but you're forgetting it's an autocross, which means they would use a red flag in that situation.
