Where in the toyko area are you, I'm stationed at yokota. If you ever get rid of your stock cat I'll take it off your hands, I want to see if an o2 sensor will fit in the evo iv temp sensor bung. Evo VII ecu is a good option I have a VI RS Ecu for sale which can still be reflashed w/ ecuflash if your interested.

 

lmao.

 

Yea, I am stationed at Yokota too... I want to get my hands on an Evo 3 and some evo 7 tails for my evo 8 in the states.

 

Did you already get an Evo?? If so which one on base do you have. Let me knowif you need any info or help with it.

 

wrong uses same cradle also uses same centre bearing thrust washer arrangement as 1/2/3

 

actually evo 4 pistons are forged from stock , i know of quiet a few running 350 plus on stock pistons . you can fit 5/6 ecu and inj and map by connecting 1 wire to ecu or evo7 ecu with some wire swaps

 

 

mine on track




a friends evo 4 just got a full respray

 

I am getting the Evo on the 4th of Feb.. I am waiting until he PCS's so he can still have a car. It's white, it has some hood damage... You probably see it driving around or on yokota ads at one time.. a guy named Nick drives it

 

Oh ya great find, that was sold at an awesome price.

I sold my ecu and 560's already

 

I love to see evo's getting used as they are ment to. What's the specs on your IV, your running e-85 right?? I'm interested in running ethonol myself.

 

your very very lucky it sucks being here in the states cause its hard to get all the evo stuff to covert our mirages... i may be hitting you up for some parts cause im tryin to do an evo 5 build right now, i read this whole thread and didn't see, but how much did you buy the IV for?? if you don't mind me asking, also how likely are you to find evo 5 body panels and seat rails??

 

Its understood that there is a slightly higher risk of crankwalk in the IV vs the later models because of a design fault that leads to oil starvation. Some IVs mind you, not all. But this leads many to drop in a later (V-VIII) engine in before investing in power mods.
If you can, opt for a later engine before you bring the car over or start putting any real cash in.

 

id like to see pix of what the engine looks like after you try to throw it into a car

 

I got the evo for 1k to be honest.. minor stuff here and there but it runs solid.. pics are coming up in next few days... I am going to do front to back pics.. fun project car...
