my first evo

[jawadarif]

i can know say im part of the evo forum. i have got my first evo 7 fq300 and im glad i did not go for the sti. it way better car. what a car. as it my first evo.i don't no much about car. i wanna give it in for a service and what all the oil changed.
1:which is the best engine oil and filler, last owner uses mobile 1
2:which is best fuild or ayc pump
3:which is best for brake/clutch fluid
4:best oil for gearbox oil
5. best oil for transfer box
i wana buy the oil my self as they local garages uses cheap shit like car lube.

it is a good idea to by a turbo timer as i wanna make sure the turbo cool down before the engine turn off. is they any device that i can buy that will start up the engine in the morning before i jump in making sure it warm up before i drive off .also wana fit in a dump value, (the once that make a noise,)it is a good idea. i love the back bumper on the evo 9, will that fit on an evo 7.

Welcome and that looks like Smons

Go take your car to a specialist for a full service!
In my 8 have all Motul oils and fluids from AP Tuning in norwich
You will find having gearbox oil changed will help your gear changes
As most evo's gearboxes suffer tight ness from cold
Before you boost just get the temp up to normal then easy driving for 15 minutes to get the box/diffs warmed up
And just sit in the car for extra minutes before switching off

This is your first turbo car isnt it? looks nice like, just a question :razz:

No need for a turbo timer mate, just drive nice n steady for a few miles before your destination or sit and wait a min or 2.

As for oils, your best off giving oilman a pm. He will advise you and opi oils usually have pretty good deals on.

iv had an subaru wrx, a vxr, and iv drove an subaru sti jbm and an m3. i can say it handle way better then the m3 or the sti. im from rochdale i cant find any Mitsubishi specialist. that the problem, but i don't trust the part they uses. so just wanted some info on the oil.

Stick the the best, silcolene or Fuchs as its called now
Or millers for engine, gearbox, transfer box and rear diff

Brake fluid I do some track work and swear by halfords 5.1

Ayc alot of people use amsoil
