I'm Ben, 23, from Nottingham. I currently own an FC RX-7 Turbo, but have fallen in love with the Evo I-III. I need a car I drive daily without worrying about harming my solid chassis, snow, wet weather, etc etc and the fuel costs will be cheaper than my 13b turbo FC. The fact it's more practical and awd just adds to the pro's, I've never had a car I've not tuned either but never owned a awd monster yet.

I'm currently working in Cyprus but I'll back back home in April, I'll sell the FC when I'm back and get an Evo II or III ASAP. In the mean time I'm going to potter around on here and do some research if y'all don't mind. Also if someone has a II or III and they want to go RE or drifting, let me know perhaps we can PX for my RX-7.

Ben.

Ah, it's not all its cracked up to be in truth. It's been hit bad by the financial crisis and the cost of living here is extortionate! Weathers good though, been out in shorts today. Miss England though, when you come to a place like Cyprus it makes you realise how much we have in the uk.

Edit- yeah the FC is great, just fancy something I can use daily now. It's a real weekend car!

I'll not get more than 18mpg at best, press the power pedal and that goes down even more. Have you 2 got some build threads for me to nose at, what are your running costs like and what kind of bhp figures do you have?

Thanks, just trying to get some research in.
