Guys, my evo is traded in on a new mini cooper clubman in choclote and black. My stock rims with nearly new kumho snows are for sale and my 17x9 5zigen fn01rc's with kumho v710's are for sale as well (tire trailer also for sale). Some stock parts laying around, like exhaust and cams are available.
Sad to see it go. Your car was super nice.

What kind of trade-in $ did they give you, if you don't mind telling? As for the LICP, I'll keep my custom piece from Pure Tuning. More money than that one, but made WAY more under the curve too; just where I needed it.

Anyone see the latest lower intercooler pipe from ETS? They came out with a second version (LP2) which implements a funnel like coupler to make the transition in pipe diameter. What do you guys think (other than the blue couplers) ?
Just trying to start some conversation...Are you guys hibernating yet?

Works like a champ.
I think ETS is on the right track.

Sweet Jesus -- talk about low ball offers from Mitsubishi. Offered 14k on my car -- KBB trade in value for a poor car is 20k.
Anyone here have a MR will to do a trade of suspensions? -- I have the Pure Tuning / PIC TSO Coilovers. Willing to trade those for a MR Suspension with some cash.

Dude you would be better off offering them on the suspension or trade boards. I don't think there are many MRs in the cincy area.
I took my JIC's off for probably the same reason your PICs are coming off. They sure make the car handle great, but boy is the ride rough.
I also noticed the car handles the snow much better in stock suspension form.

Kind of suprised -- but then again not really...if that makes sense. I at least thought they would be close to the 20k and i could work with em. But 6 grand lower?? wow!
It was rather funny when I handed them the printout from KBB -- the sales manager kept fliping the pages back and forth as in effort to make the numbers change on the page..
It's not absolutely critical to get rid of the car -- just looking for a way for lower payments and lower insurance....I was even looking the SUV route. But oh well...
Greg, you know of anyone looking for a suspension?? heh -- driving only 8 miles a day (max -- for work purposes) -- this suspension has barely been used.

That's crazy Timmy. I already checked into the insurance -- i'd save 600 a year alone in overall insurance (i have 2 cars and a condo on the policy) so that is good. And my car payment SHOULD have been 100-150 dollars cheaper a month.
and with the 0% financing they were offering -- almost too good to pass up.
Greg, if you want the TSO's again -- we can work something out. Help me get those off the car, put on a stock suspension and we can work out a price.

Check your deductables on the cars. That is where the insurance companies make the biggest differences. Also your coverage levels will increase the cost too. You have to have the same coverages on your cars otherwise it is like comparing apples to oranges....yeah they are fruit...but not in the same family.
