seriously hks. you should do it. but you should really check if that skyline is really legit. check the engine bay of course, check all the edges on the car (doors, fenders, bumpers, etc) to see if it's been in an accident. and ask him for the import papers.

edit : sorry i just read what jake just said. if u are planning to get another evo. then forget it. lol

idk... any one ever seen this skyline? he says he lives somewhere in gig harbor... black r32? he says that this skyline is registered to wa with a us license... so that marks the value up a bit.

Lubing the oil filter? Do I have to do that? It's brand new tho. Or perhaps it's brand new so I need to lube it?

Yea I am guessing the next time I change engine oil, I would spare 1/2 a bottle to flush the older oil out.

I got this confusion about how much engine oil I have to use because my previous work shop told me that I need about 5.5 qt. How much actually do we need for evos? Alex told me like 4-5qt?
