Evo Questions

[turbo_racer]

Good day

I am interested in purchasing an old Evo.
There are 2 here in SA that are available.

The first one, it is covered in Ralli-art stickers, has 17' enkei WRC wheels, it has a sheppard box with sequential shifter, and goes like a bullet...
How do you tell if this is a genuine ralli-art spec car?

The other one is standard, but has funny vents on the front fenders, is this possibly a 5?

Regards
Warren

That really throw a wrench in the works cause the other car is now sold, so have a choice of a fake ralli-art........

It's really just the design if u like it go for it just make sure u check the normal ie look round the car, service history, plenty of people plaster ralliart over their cars when they not

Thanks man

I have had a good look at this car, I service turbo cars all the time, this one of my customers cars, needs a bit of body attention and a full service, diff, gearbox and engine....... have no idea how complicated that gonna be!!!

I have found that it has HKS coilovers around and some other nice stuff..........

 

[turbo_racer]

Plus one of my mates gave a brand new HKS turbo for this car, full bolt on.....

No specific ralliart models.
You could get uprated parts from ralliart fitted such as braces, suspension, filter, remap/ecu, etc
But then you could get better aftermarket parts fitted.
Just check the car over with a fine tooth come and if your happy then there you go...

Now do I remove the stickers or keep them?????????

This car drives like a dream, but a little complicated with the sequetial shifter.........

Hmmmmmmmm............

 

[micevo]

remove stickers with a hair dryer warm them up and peel off, depending how long they been on might need to mop the paint.........

 

[turbo_racer]

Now I must just find out how to change the gearbox and diff oils......
