i just got off the phone the my lawer, he made me a final offer of $2,800
and i took it, im not getting stressed out over this thing NO MORE
let me ask you guys this if you found a mint evo withought a motor or tranny
how much would it be worth to you??
well this is a mint car, that has a noisy tranny, and the motor has been abused
its never been crashed, id rather let it sit in my drive way then sell it for'
some absurd amount

Otherwise you can go to a dealer and trade it in... You'll get at least what you want to sell it for, you save a ton of money in sales taxes, you get a brand new EVO (MR, RS or GSR) and you come out OK..... I traded my '03 GSR that Busted Solutions screwed up and got $22K out of it......

It's not mint. Messed up tranny & motor = far from mint.
Good luck

are you sure those are slicks and not worn out advans ?
are you sure that the noisy tranny isn't just normal tranny noise?
what brand are your tires?
sounds to me like you dont know how a regular evo drives.
im just asking these question cause i dont want you to be disappointed if your new evo drives like this.

Dude, calm down. You don't sound particularly mechanically minded, so I want to lay this out in basic terms. Excuse my ignorance if I am wrong about the mechanical minded part. Did the seller tell you anything about what had been done to the car or what may be wrong with it? Contact them and ask and then let us know. Be specific.
Have you really had the car out for a drive after it has warmed up? I mean really warmed up; slow drive for 10 minutes. I don't know if you know this, but these cars don't run well at all until they come up to temperature.
If it still does not run right it sounds like the ecu flash was done incorrectly or was not done properly for the mods.
Take the car to a Mitsu dealer and have them determine what has been done to the car and what may be wrong with it. Ask them to give you an estimate of what it would take to make it stock.
Do all of this before you continue to throw more money away.
