Evo Crashers New Pics.

are you sure it doesnt give you enough downforce to be worth it. There was talk about the sti wing on nasioc a while back and someone dug up a company that did testing on it. It actually showed decent amount of downforce at highway speeds. It was showed a shit ton at 140 MPH. So it was important to have at very high speeds. the evo wing looks close to what the sti wing is. I know subaru didnt put theirs on there for looks. Just thought Id share that with you.

here ya go

The main point of the air flow on the evo come from the vortex generator. if you look at all of the time attack evos they use the bigger "ironing board" style of wing becasue the stock one doesnt do anything for normaly driving.

when are you ever going to go a consistant 140 mph.

Im sure the wing on the evo is functional but you prolly won't notice anything except maybe on the highways. i kinda doubt zach will be doing much driving where that downforce would acctually be needed lol

I know zac. It wasnt a direct critiscm towards you. just thought I would throw that out there.

yeah I am kinda out of the scene, but I can still talk on the forum. Plus I was thinking of putting a wing on my truck so it blends in better.

talked to Jim @ jmfab yesterday, i should have my mini batter and upper ic pipe next week. i also should get my test pipe at the same time (but thats from lancershop).

also getting my boost controller finally i will have pics up of those after they are installed.

how about an update. Aside from the crappy weather, there have been a few changes made. i installed my uicp and mini battery on tuesday, and stopped by DTM yesterday and got my coilovers. it looks a lot better, doesnt look like a dog dragging ass anymore.

of course with good, theres always bad. in the process of istalling my coilover, we discovered the VIPGarage had over looked a missing pin in right rear caliper. which is funny becasue that the same side that was having "ABS" issues. (raises BS flag). another VIP overlooked was the bolt on pass. front, lower strut mount was scrapping against my rim. im thrilled at this point too what else is jacked up, once i get the car taken apart for a little build.

amongst other things like loose lugs that put nice gouges in my wheels and 2 blown rear struts, the car is AWESOME!

sounds like a solid investment right about now.

Slowica

You got those coilovers pretty quick lol you should just replace everything from the front bumper back then you won't have to worry about shit breaking anymore.

im in the process of that right now. everything is getting taken apart, inspected, repaired/replaced.

im on a good pace with it right now though, yesterday all the suspension got replace by the coilovers, tomorrow or saturday the brakes get fixed. and once i get it in the garage the diff and t case come out and come apart for inpection and rebuild.
