evo crank

[danny boy]

hey folks looking to buy a crank,rod and pistons for my evo 4.just wondering if anybody could help me out or point me in good direction for a good website or if anyone has stuff on here.cheers

 

[RsvRob]

I'll have evo 9 rods for sale soon...

 

[Steveyb_evo3]

Wouldn't bother with later rods and pistons if ur going to build an engine do it once and do it right go forged and don't cut corners
The only thing I would reuse out of a later Evo is a good condition crank with proof of no fractures or cracks
Take it from someone who has rebuild 3 times for that reason

 

[danny boy]

hey thanks for getting back and what crank have you finally used if youve done it 3 times?im just new with this evo and want to do it right so hopefully will get forged,do you no of any good sites?cheers

 

[Steveyb_evo3]

Extreme psi but if u got to someone like indigo or Steve hill
I used a 8 crank as they have been proven to 400+ easy

 

[danny boy]

orite i will try them,been keepin an eye on ebay aswell but cant seem to find anything and in desperate need haha cheers for your advice tho.

I have got a mint 7 crank if thats any help mate .

I'd ditch the 4 block personally if you want high power, it'll be more susseptable to crank walk.

Was gonna say the same thing but you get your head bitten off by the 1 or 2 Evo 4 owners who haven't had crank walk who argue they are strong engines lol

 

[Steve220]

Its not the strength I doubt, its the fact the design is poor on the bearings.

 

[fq-craigus]

Yh true, hence why they changed it on the 5 onwards

 

[danny boy]

Its not the crank thats a poor design - its the block.
