My sacrifice to get an FTO

Post by Nath »

Bought an EVO V after wanting one for about 9 years and started track prep. It already had a roll cage, full 3" exhaust and HKS 272 cams.
I put in heavier sway bars, BC coilovers, slotted rotors and pads all round, full service and tune. I did all the work myself too :)

Never did get it onto a track :9
It was chewing a whole tank of fuel in under 300kms. Had to sell it for my new job this year as I'll be driving Newcastle to Sydney heaps :(
On the up side, I ended up with an awesome FTO.
Last shot was with my cousin's WRX. The EVO is way faster :tongue:
