Sex.

I think that is the first widebody Evo I've actually liked that wasn't just a straight up racecar.

You should look into sending your rear diff to TRE. Those weir 12 plates aren't that great, and I suspect you'll have this issue rather shortly with the abuse and power your going to subject it to.

This looks dope. I'm sure the car handles and pulls really nice as well. Too bad the Evo X wasn't designed to be closer in weight to the Evo 8/9 although that would guarantee a higher price due to meeting safety and regulation requirements while using lower weight materials.

Unfortunately this build thread has to come to an end. Here is a pic of what happened. An 82 year old man wasn't paying attention and turned right in front of me. I hit the brakes, but unfortunately wasn't nearly enough time and I smashed right into him.

First and foremost, glad you're okay!

It sucks that this happened. I just saw this thread for the first time today, and was amazed at the care and attention you were giving to each aspect of the car.

This was NOT the update I was hoping for...

Holy crap that looks bad! I hope you are ok. Life will move forward and your auto-passion and skills are not lost and will be applied to something even better in the future I am sure.
