drove an EVO 3 last night :) WOW

[luckytruck]

well, technically it is an EVO III

my friend bought the whole underside of an evo 3 from japan. he got a donor car na lancer same body style as the evo 3. after about 2 or 3 months of installing and wiring, he is good to go. he added a K&N filter with heatsheild and a full 3" custom exhaust.

it is full time 4wd and eerything else that came with the evo 3.


that thing is fast!!!!!! i was shifting at 7000 rpm and it never missed a beat. grabe. now i know why people have those large tachometers with shift light on top of their dashboards. this one didn't have it yet and it was difficult to monitor the RPMs and at the same time keep your eye on the street (everything was moving very fast)

i tried a semi-launch.... grabe ang kapit ng 4wd, parang frog sya, talon kaagad.

wala lang, share ko lang sa inyo

shifting at 7K rpm? wow you must have a very long road in there w/o much traffic.....kasi at 7K rpm bago ka umabot nang 5th gear eh nasa aroung 200++km/h ka na siguro....hehehe

iba talaga ang AWD na kotse...para kang tinutulak, yung na-drive ko dito eh galant kaya lang isang straight lang, wala kasi akong lisensya dito eh......considering na matic yon pero para akong na-pinned sa upuan nung i-launch ko, wala kang mararamdamang slippage sa gulong.......kaka-adik....hehehehe

[luckytruck]

hanggang third gear lang nga ako, naubusan kaagad ng daan. yup, his fastest time in a quarter mile is 13.4 (stock engine pa, stock injectors, stock computer box, heavy body). sabi nya, hangang 4th gear lang sya, hitting about 195 to 200 kmh at the end of the race.

his next step wil be body lightening (fiberglass and plexiglass where ppossible), maybe a piggyback computer.

this weekend, we will take it to my beach which is 40 kms away from the city with very nice asphalt roads with lots of straight and nice banking curves (gawa ng USAID ang road, sobrang ganda). tingnan namin kung how it handles.

sarap talaga !!!!!

I can imagine the first thing na will wear out sa kotse nya eh yung clutch especially pag hard lunch lagi unless napalitan na ng aftermarket piece... but regardless, makes you want to own 1 :D stay safe out there, that thing is fast!

[slayer]

I can imagine the grin on your face with all that torque. ;)

[luckytruck]

yup, he is using the clutch from the evo 3 but is already planning to get a stronger one. ang hard launch naman is only when he drags it. but since he practices a lot, mukhang kailangan talaga ng racing clutch.

kulang din ng safety features like roll cage and better seats and seatbelts. those are in the future plans pa

andy

[gearspeed]

Ganda niyan especially kapag full race set up na yan.It can reach at about 10 seconds in a quarter mile...Its best na palitan na ng clutch masters yan lalong lalakas hatak niyan..Send ka naman ng pics kung ok lang..heheh..I want to see it..:D

[flakez]

kakainggit naman. isa sa mga pangarap ko ang evo.

[luckytruck]

cge, hiramin ko digital camera ng brother ko.

actually, gusto nya talaga gawing daily driver, pero super lightened. kung baga, all doors will be replaced with fiberglass doors. all glass will be replaced with plexi, except the front windsheild. pero full interior with aircon.

kung may drag race, tatangalin nya lang ang passenger seat and rear seat and disconnect the belt of the aircon.

sarap nyan!! dati un lancer ko gusto ko sana i ganyan kaso nanghihinayang akosa resale value pero grabe dapat tinuloy ko! hahaha

[luckytruck]

yup, swerte ito sya dahil mayari ng mitsu gensan, so he has the labor and technical support. magandang advertising din kasi sibak lahat ng civic na nagkukunwaring mabilis

if you plan to sell your car in the near future, di mo talaga gawin ito. parang off roading din yang drag racing, pangmatagalan ang mga project cars.

he even has a galant na 1996 body with a 4g63t in it. mabilis din pero not as quick as his lancer dahil front wheel drive lang and mabigat ang body ng galant. this is galant for sale by the way

Nasa GenSan yung Lancer nya? sayang invite ko sana sa MyMitsu eb sa Aug 21 :D

[iqaruzz]

andy,
sabihin mo sa kaibigan mo, palitan nya ng evo 4 na injector at ECU. Puwede na nyang itaas ang boost ng 14psi sa turbo. Kung naka setup na ang induction nya astig sapat na yoon para sa 280+hp. Palit na lang ng clutch siguro high 12 sec ang kakayanin nyo. Usually kasi sa Japan hanggang 270 HP restricted ng ECU kasi hindi na road legal sa manufacturer. Pero tuner ng EVO sa Japan kayang 800HP. kakaingit.

[luckytruck]

yup, nasa Gen. Santos ang unit. sige lang, padala na alng ako ng pics. di kami natuloy last saturday. sakit ng ulo ko sa fundador na ininom namin.

I will tell him about that injectors and the ECU. diba pati ang ECU ng Evo 4 is limited to 280 hp?

andy

[ssaloon]

akin nalang yung makina ng galant!!! :evillaugh

4G63T from what car? eclipse ba? 6G VR4 (gti body)?

[luckytruck]

galanat VR ata pare, kasi he had to block off the rear wheel drive. it was full time 4wd tapos front lang ang ginamit nya.

andy

[ssaloon]

hmmm ang engine code ng VR4 sa 96 galant kasi 6A12TT kaya i figured na galing eclipse yung 4G63T or evo 2-3? :confused:

[luckytruck]

let me check with him pare, para sigurado.

andy

[luckytruck]

reply na friend ko, ito sabi nya:

4g63t 1st gen - td05 14b turbo.

kung mali ang earlier description ko, then kasalanan ko iyon. ito yung actual na model

andy

[iqaruzz]

Oo, evo 4 limited din sa 270+hp. Standard ng evo ang turbo boost nila hindi lalampas ng 1bar. hanap ka na lang ng piggy back chip kesa sa palitan ng buo ng engine management. Grabe medyo mahal din.

tignan nyo itong website baka makatulong
