by your details, then the US doesnt have ANY "real" type of evo at all. as you said before, the RS shouldnt come with A/C, but it does in the states, BUT its still sold as an RS. but i guess we dont really have an RS by your standards. along with the MR. we dont have the S-AYC, head and tail lights, etc etc. but its still called the MR. but i guess its not a real MR either just like our "standard" and RS. who the hell cares??
its just a frickin name for God's sake.
plus i think the reason people got offended was because of the way you portrayed your post and the way people took it, thats all.

The point is that if you didn't know: All USDM EVO's no matter which model, doesn't come with AYC. It's sucks for us, so I'm not bragging. I apologize if I went off the deep end as well.

Did yours also come with MPH instruments? I changed mine to the Ralliart 300km/h/10,000rpm instrument cluster when the car was new but still it made me a bit confused since the 7 never got to the US, maybe it could have been cars intended for the US market but never got approved there and then were shipped to Europe instead?
BTW, what German word is on the radiator and where is it located?

My speedo has MPH & KMH. The MPH writing is bigger than the KPH. In the philippines we use kph. sometimes I forget about the MPH thinking im still in the kph....going 100 plus MPH....
BTW, im gonna be changing my front, rear differential, transmission fluids soon. Just wanna make sure I dont drain the wrong fluids. can you post some illustrations or pics to where is the drain plugs & fill plugs. I dont wanna end up draining my AYC instead of my rear diff. Or adding rear diff fluid to my AYC. That would be a NIGHTMARE! Thanks!

That sounds possible as it would say “WARNING” then, I haven’t noticed any sticker on my radiator but on the other hand I really didn’t look for one.
The MPH markings was also bigger on my speedo and I thought it didn’t matter that much until I realized that the odometer i.e. the road distance also was in miles. I didn’t use my car as my every day driver so I just though it had a very poor fuel consumption as I didn’t realize that for ever 1km I thought I drove actually drove 1,6km. Do you know if your odometer reads in miles or km?
Hmm, sorry but I don’t have any pics of that but I’ll get the EVO8 workshop manual tonight and I could try to find the relevant information in there and mail the pdf files to you? If I don’t get the VIII manual I already have the VI’s and it looks much the same so you could at least get that. Do you have an e-mail address that would cope with large attachments?

All the earlier Lancer GSR variations of the Evo came with the 1800cc (4g93t).

Later G63B 2-litre intercooled engine had different ECU,
and developed 177 bhp up from 168 bhp (non-intercooled)
Brief specs. for 1984 Lancer 1800 GSR (Rear Wheel Drive) -
Engine - G62B SOHC / 1,795 cc
................- Intercooled / Turbocharged / Throttle-body Fuel Injection
Power - 160 ps (159 bhp SAE) @ 5,800 rpm
Torque - 22.0 Kg.-m (159 lb.-ft) @ 3,800 rpm

Please drop me a PM with your address and I'll try to send a few of the files, don't think they are that large. And yes, the rear diff would look different if you have AYC.
