Thanks I love it so far. Yeah I havent seen too many before. I was going to go with wicked white, but we have to many white cars in the garage right now so decided to switch it up. I just finished detailing it, its a really nice color in person.

 

Is there a regular monthly meetup?

 

Seems like the meets always fall apart. I would definitely be in for some starting in the spring. Evo is parked for the winter.

 

I would be down to meet up...I'm from Erie but have a lot of friends down in the Pittsburgh area, but the evo is just going to be a track car this year

 

Its nice to see a bit of action in this thread. Maybe i should post some stuff about my build over the summer.

JTevo, What kind of track car is this going to be?

 

I live in the New Castle area. I am free Monday and Tuesday nights. If anyone ever wants to meet up just shoot me a PM and we will try to work it out. OH ya, I drive my evo all winter! Its a rally car for god sake!!!

 

Also I am looking to buy an extra set of rims. If anyone has some GSR or MR rims they want to sell shoot me a PM.

 

Post some stuff from your build jerseitzel....the car was an Autox going drag now trying something new

 

I saw a nice looking blue IX today reminded me of the evo forum.

Good to see some people posting.

We haven't have an evo meet in years in Pittsburgh FYI. I say go for it.

 

pics or it didn't happen.

 

I'm down for a meet anytime during the weekend, I'm usually busy during the week.

 

i'm a newbie here but i figured pittsburgh would be a happening place for evos....what about trying a meet on the first sunday after new years...obviously weather is always a factor this time of year but if we do it at a bar or restaurant then we can all talk inside...let me know

 

Okay!

I don't have a bunch of pics but this is what i have.

Blown motor at the end of May.






Then the had Dent Sport Garage build me a new motor. Since i destroyed the whole motor.(block, crank, head) i was looking for someone to help me out with this build. The guys up at DSG are the ones who built my cage in my car and i they have built many good race motors over the years. They hooked me up with a new built 2.0 liter, and built head with some new tomei 280 cams.





Had the car back together at the end of August. I took it for an auto-x and the car ran great. Other then a bit of a mess from the dipstick popping off. I then took it up to Road America to get the car out and really shake it down. Unfortunatly, about 4 laps into the session i blew the turbo manifold gasket. Then, i half *** fixed that (still a slight leak) and went out again. I made it about 3 laps and the car filled with smoke from the turbo going bad and the fix not holding up. Not a fun day! So, at the moment i just have the car on jack stands and am waiting to pull the trigger on a new turbo setup. I'm thinking of an BBK-B or an FP red.
