I'm not going to be racing my EVO at all. No street racing and no drag strips or anything. How likley is it for me to still get problems with the clutch, t-case, etc?
I am planning on modding a little bit, nothing that amazing maybe vishnu st1+ or buschur stg 3 or possibly 4. Will these types of mods increase the chance of me having different problems dramaticly? I'm not modding so I can beat people, I'm modding because I love to work on the car.
I'm not scared of having problems with my car, I would just rather not have a problem with my brand new car. Ya know what I mean? I'm not going to be racing therefor nothing should happen but things keep happening to everyone else.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: I forgot to mention, if I do get an 05 I will almost definitly try and get an MR, so if that makes a difference in the chance of me getting huge problems. Take that into account. I may possibly get an IX MR but not sure if I want to spend that much.
