Light-Tuned EVO X in China
#166
Hey Steve,
Awesome looking ride man... I'm in Shanghai driving a white evo 9. Don't the police stop you for the mods? I get stopped and harassed all the time and my spoiler is factory...
if you're looking for a tune, there's Motec and EcuTek dealers out in Tianma. I have motec installed on my car. I am assuming you go to SRT to get your car modded? I think they are the authorized dealer for JUN and HKS.

The sad thing is people here just don't know cars. In the Shanghai auto show last week you can see people crowding into areas with Ferrari, double B, Lexus, etc. but it was complete clear space surrounding a GTR-R35.

Already done but no time to put on the details.
Basically completed some minor cooling upgrades like thermostat, Samco pipes, Billion anti-freeze, etc., lower the suspension and GT wing after run-in, and most critical one is having tuned the car with EVC to push the boost to 1.0 bar (Mode A) and 1.3 bar (Mode B) already. The sad thing is I cannot run any dyno testing here due to lack of facilities. But overall my tuner referenced to HK experience with particular adjustments to fit the poor gasoline quality here in China and the result so far has been quite impressive and stable.

I would consider upgrading to more aggressive setting next year, particularly interested in the new Advan RS-D, together with F6R4 Brembo kits.

Having said that I know I still have records in particular districts here known as "seriously moded vehicles in Shanghai", or in other words, under close monitor by the polices.
I am not going to SRT but a tuner that I known for years. He is working close to HKS, JUN and Top Racing (in HK) and so far I am fine to stick with him. He may not be as professional and resourceful than those you mentioned but our chemistry works well, esp the moding style. I have heard of MOTEC as well but I want to equip my toy with all the hardware first before going for soft and for the latter I am waiting for Top Racing to tune their tested X in Zhuhai sometimes this summer.

Hey bro Steve, u sure have one hell of a beautiful ride I have seen so far. Really makes me drool I don't think that u r from Guangzhou or Guangxi. But i'm looking for hints to look for performance parts for an E10 SST. Particularly parts like defi gauges, controller 2, camp2, blitz SBC icolor spec r, or SBC spec r, intakes eg Injen or related. in the region. R there recommended areas or district where these shops/ wkshp concentrates? Is it possible to find shops speciallizing in automobile accessories like the Autobacs. Cheers for ur insights!!
