my evo 8 has a evo lV engine and tranny..runs pretty strong... nice ride.

 

i thought people do it the other way around since the IV engines have issues??

anyways to the op, any updates??

 

Yes , the cranckwalk is the biggest problem so there are no big power numbers on them without changed the oem parts for uprated ones.

 

ooooh boy. i could've of sworn crankwalk only happens to evos lll and down. same set up. almost same specs on engine. oh well dont wanna get off topic.not worried. . anyways gotta love that evo lV though. very nice

 

Yeah, IV to IX, are the same engine bay orientation. Won't go easily into 1G or 2G eclipse.

 

The biggest/first thing: make sure all the proper maintenance has been taken care of.

 

haha me and my friend Patrick are down here on Kadena hes got a white one i have a gray one....we need to get up there and get to that track tho sh** looks sweet

 

ive been driving my IV hard now for the last year here on Okinawa and havent had any problems.....upgrage is the deal man got some good stuff new and used for very cheap

good luck with the build...hit me up with any?? i may be able to help out

 

damn i wish we could really get these so easily here in the states i'll have one by the end of this year though

 

crankwalk FTL!! need to change injectors, turbo, pump, ecu.... I

 

I am most likely going to sell it in a couple of months. I am looking for a EVo III, I can build that up and bring the engine back and put it into a 1G/2G.. or start working on Nissan's lol..

 

^^ sounds good.. I had an evo III and that thing was frikin nuts... but a GTR would be very nice

 

Evo III idea is good....Nissan...booo skylines are a dime a dozen out here i hate seeing them...once in a blue moon a REAL GT-R will come along....not skyline with a gtr badge on it F*** Nissan tho

 

anything new on this? you decide what you're going to do with this?

 

not true at all...it can be if you find the right places to get parts but with the yen rate and local shops charge out the a** for everything its not reasonable like
