one more week can't wait.. new iridium plugs gaped to 0.6 check, new coilpacks and leads check, oil changed check, boost wound up too 22 psi check. lets do this thing yeah boy...!!
-
can't wait for the next cruise. Been doing some practice just for the occasion. did the GOR from warrnambool to torquay in one go...at NIGHT. A little bit better with the lack of caravans and tourists..hehe also the grampians hill climbing a few times.
-

-

-
hey there could some one do me a favour and PM me thenobblers number i have lost it.. thanks.
-
hey there i haven't been on this for ages because i've been over west working..anyway I'm still keen on coming just incase i was scrubbed from the list. haha due to lack of participation. Won't be brining the evo5... unfortunatly its been sold. might just have to bring my newer toy.. the evo 7 haha
-
i will be there in the mighty corolla ( which is currently blowing blue smoke...dame you rings!!) or in the the evo..
-
hey think i might have to pull out. Did the clutch in my car and the 500km round trip might be abit far to push it..haha anyway sorry hope its still a good cruise never the less..
-
Hi i finally have the car in my name and in my shed...
Its running 16 pound of boost and goes off the clock quite easy lol looking foward the letting her loose down the great ocean road thats for sure.. lol
-
I'm keen, if i can make it.
-
I'm keen to go as long as I'm free.. hopefully the evo will be all tuned and ready..
-
i've noticed that the really dear brands will give there values in RMS ( and it will usually say rms on the box or the speaker)while the cheper more well known ones are in PMPO
for example my Rockford fosgate 12" 150 watt Rms sub goes harder then my mates 1000 watt kenword sub
-
i have an sx seca mines done 250.000kms . i drive it like an animal everyday, i service it every 5000kms i find mine blows some smoke when it first starts..uses maybe a litre of oil between changes. but goes black almost instantly. i put penrite HPR 30 in it.
-
thanks mate, yeah the 6.5's are good.. also expencive.. least the 5 is more rare..haha
heres some more pics.
-
its all original except for the front bumper correct,, i noticed the intercooler has a little dint in the bottom of it so a assume the front hit something in previus life...would love and original one with the lights tho.
-
yeah will have to get used to driving a 4wd fast and side ways compared to a FWd before any dirt comes into place.. plus the paint is too nice i'd be scared i scratch it... once the novilty wears off tho... bring on the carnage.. lol
yeah turbos are just another thing to worry about.... but so worth it for the fun they produce..lol
-
well had my first drama... the bloke who owns it was mucking around with the piping and didn't tighten it back up.. any way as i was driving it the pipe come off the intake manifold when it hit boost.. then just died at this point i shit my pants.... then realised i just had to put the pipe on.... but then because it was running rich with out any air going into it.. it made the plugs real dirty and it was miss firing.. so i had to take out all the plugs and clean them too....arh
Also replaced the front rotors and pads tonight on the brembos... stops real good now..
-
yeah true i wouldn't buy any other mitsubishi besides and evo ... a road going rally car is pretty reliable you would imagine.. and the 4g63 is pretty bullet proof from what of heard.
-
yes it was i haven't seen a 5 for sale anywhere. heaps of 6's tho there about 25.000 up wards.. i got this for 17.000 plus what ever the clutch and timing belt etc etc cost me.
-
