Jhurley's Widebody Evo VIII MR Time Attack build

First of all, I am not here to "advertise" for these shops or claim their the best. But my car would NOT be where it is today without a few people. Shoutouts to John Pineda at Pristine Parts... Devin at SpeedElement Performance... and last but not least Jon Vo at TrackSpec Autosports for doing all the work on the car!

Here is my build thread. 2005 Evo VIII MR.. I started off with a car with bolt ons/FP Green. Just building on what the previous owner had on the car .. My purpose for this car is 100% time attack and weekend car (sorta). it will compete in SpeedSF Challenge, NCRC Chrono, and SCCA TA. I drove the car with Hankook RS3's last season and found a few things I did not like about the car (Push Understeer, etc). So I went about changing that! The point of the build was to retain reliability as well as making the car competition ready.

Thank you dude! Really appreciate it!!.. The thing about my evo is, its heavily tracked, so of course it takes a beating. I try and keep the car as mechanically sound as possible (oil and driveline fluid changes often), maintaining the car, always paying attention to what is going on in my tune (Lots of data logging and refining the tune)... Its a lot of preventative maintenance that helps me keep the car so clean. Also the fact at the track I don't outdrive my own abilities, so i rarely go off track and break stuff.
