Hi all. I'm very new to the Evo game. Just bought a 2003 White EVO GSR this weekend. Trying to learn some things about it. I know it's been upgraded a little bit. Fun to drive, and very different from the GTI I just traded in for it.

I will definitely try! I'm getting more information from the dealer. They said it has a shep transmission and upgraded clutch. I want to get some validity on this. I've been doing a lot of reading, finding out what noises were normal haha

So clutch chatter under deceleration and sometimes in idle is okay? Haha. My GTI did it too, but I had a lightened flywheel. And I was used to A LOT of noise. But then again, it was a VW.

I would be curious to know if any one knows anything about the car. Apparently it came from Monroe, where the PO worked at a auto shop and did a lot of his own work. Here's a quick picture : http://instagr.am/p/NfXaI/

Sorry if I'm getting off topic.

I'm from Monroe, and I know of one existing WW in Monroe. I think it is wingless with VII tails. There might have been another one awhile ago, but haven't seen it recently.

This is really dissapointing. Not only was the SRT-4 a better chassis, but Electric Blue is a really ****ty color. I'm sorry. Maybe trade for silver like the really cool people in Seattle do?

what happened to the rule where Ryan couldn't talk with new people for the first month? Ryan is just being a ding dong. He expects you to know that he has a EB as well. Pay little attention to him and you'll do fine. Welcome to the group!
