Picking up an Evolution IV
I've decided to part with my 180sx, I miss AWD too much. I'll be picking up this beauty around the 20th of this month.
I wanted to get some interior shots today before my test drive, but I got off work late and it was getting dark quick. The interior is FLAWLESS, the Recaro seats are perfect, not a scuff or mark anywhere, this guy took good care of his car.
I know not everyone will be a fan of the front bumper and lip, but I really like it alot, I was a little skeptical looking at pics of it, but when I saw it in person I liked it right away.
It's only got basic mods, just exhaust and intake and a Blitz BOV. The first thing I'm doing is getting rid of the Blitz and getting something I can recirculate.
Plans for the car are fairly simple, maybe an Evo IX turbo, methanol injection, clutch, intercooler piping, boost controller, Power FC, and a fuel pump. That should get me the power I want. I'll hunt down some nice Brembos off of an Evo V or later soon enough. I also want the fender flares off the Evo V/VI so I can run slightly wider wheels and tires.
Should be a fun little car!

Yeah, seems people on "that other site" don't like it either, but I really do. I've got a little bit of ricer inside me, I like body kits and stuff like that.

I'm not sure, it's just a pod filter, I dunno if it's name brand or a knockoff or something, probably HKS, they sell a lot of those here for pretty cheap (around $45).

I'm not sure if I like what he did with the paint on the tail lights, at some angles (directly behind) I really like it, at other angles (from the side) I don't like it at all.
