Am I crazy for swapping my FD for an Evo?

I have a very clean 99 Type R that I’m considering parting ways with to build an Evo. The FD is one of the prettiest cars I’ve ever owned, but I’ve been thirsting for power again and would rather to do it on a traditional motor. Am I dumb? 🤔

Update On Evo 8 Idle/Rev Hang Issue

Update on trying to figure this out, cleaned my throttle body (don’t have a maf to clean), retightened all my clamps, and ran a smoke test and found nothing. Upon further attempts to recreate it to pinpoint a cause, it happens after hard boost. If I do a pull then I have huge rev hang, and then when I come to a stop my rpms jump like the video and sit at 3000rpm. Could it be turbo, bov and wastegate related?

Full restoration

Hello Everyone

I have a GSR (2015) 85k miles daily driver. I love the car, but I know at some point I will have to replace it.

Has anyone tried to "restore" their Evo X, 8, 9? Is their a guide our journey someone has posted?

What can you expect to pay. Could we use some of the current Mitsubishi parts? How different is the drive train on the 2024 PHEV vs 2015 X

If the ever come out with an XI that would be great and I could die a happy man

Otherwise....WRX it is.....

ASC system service required light on Evo X

Hey everyone,

I’ve got a 2011 Evo X, and recently, I had the clutch, flywheel, and one of the tail light bulbs replaced. A day or two after the work, the "ASC System Service Required" light started coming on after driving for about 10-15 minutes. I’ve already had the "4WD Service Required" light on for a while, but this is the first time I’ve seen the ASC light, so I’m thinking it might be linked to the recent repairs.

The shop insists it’s unrelated to the work they did, as they didn’t touch the ASC system. However, I’ve seen posts from others mentioning that ASC lights have come on after clutch or tail light bulb replacements.

What’s interesting is that the ASC light went away on its own after a few days and stayed off for about a month. But it reappeared immediately after I got my tires rotated. I ran an OBD scan and got error code C1219, which points to the steering angle sensor (SAS).

So, I’m wondering if this could be a recalibration issue for the SAS, or if it might need a full replacement. I’d also appreciate any insights on the potential cost of an SAS replacement, as I’ve been quoted a wide range by different shops.

If anyone has experienced something similar or has thoughts on what might be causing the issue (whether it’s the SAS, the tail light, or something clutch-related), I’d be grateful for your input!

Thanks in advance!

What’s the next best thing

Currently own a Evo X MR.

I want to upgrade my next car but I can’t find another vehicle that has the same raw feeling that the Evo gives.

Handling is beautiful The aggressive shifts is amazing The hydraulic steering gives more information compared to newer cars that have electric steering

I was originally thinking of type r but the awd is something I like. I thought of the toyota GR series but I’m trying to step away from JDM and want something with more luxury I suppose. I want something along the lines of German but not particularly sure.

RS3, M340i, M240i have been my top choices. I just want the same feeling that I get from the Evo X which I know cannot be completely replicated due to the fact it’s a unique car that emphasizes rawness and race car vibes.

Just wondering everyone’s opinion if you guys had experiences with the 3 cars suggested and how they compare and how they don’t.

RPMs increasing at full stop

Hey everyone. I have a FE Evo X and she’s been my daily since early 2016. She’s got about 90k miles and for some odd reason when at a stop or in stop and go traffic, the RPMs start to increase as if I were to have my foot on the gas but I’m actually braking at a full stop with my left foot on the clutch. The only way to get it to stop is to let off the clutch and let the car move a little and then engage the clutch again. Any ideas what could be causing this issue?

Turbo coolant optional?

Not exactly a question. Just a how my day is going. The shop I go to called me today about the condition of my turbo and when it'll be fixed. It was blowing smoke intermittently and I figured it was the turbo.

Turns out, the builder deliberately capped the coolant lines on the engine and capped them off on the turbo. The turbo repair guy said that the bearings practically crumbled when he got into the cartridge and that no coolant was the cause. Which makes sense considering it made 674whp on a mustang dyno.

What the crap. I bought the car from the owner who had the work done but it still grinds my gears. I basically need to take it to someone else to check my tune too so more things don't go boom...

Tldr...no coolant to turbo bad. Builder also (probably) bad?

Edit: turbo is a BL67X

Current market pricing for used OEM/Aftermarket parts

Hey all, I have been clearing out old parts in my garage and wanted to get some advice. I am mainly asking because I got offered $100 for a OEM cat with under $50k miles on it. I feel like that is an extremely low offer but I honestly cant figure out what is fair due to the $100 to $800 listings I've seen online for the exact same part with similar miles.

For exhaust parts, turbo parts and suspension parts. What would you list them at? All off my car before $50k miles.

Exhaust parts - Full exhaust with cat and turbo. Willing to split so individual pricing is cool.

Suspension - Bilstein Shocks And Struts with OEM Eibach Springs

Evo 9 break up

I have a break up when getting into boost. Tuner first said it was ignition so I replaced coils and gaps plugs down still has break up at around 4.5k then takes off. Hard to hear in the video but it hangs for just a second and takes off almost sounds like a rolling anti lag in person (I know the stock ecu doesn’t have anti lag). Anyone have any ideas I’ve been going back and forth with the tuner but because it’s remote he says he doesn’t see anything in my logs.

Help me choose

I'm looking to buy myself either an evo, or RSX-S. If I go with an evo, should I go with a 9 or an X? Pros and cons of each, if you're so inclined.

Anyone put some fifteen52 on their X

I was looking at this. I think the hub bore is a bit big but hub centric rings should work right? Maybe a spacer to help fill the fenders.

How much can a 400lpm fuel pump handle?

So, i've got an Evo X that currently has a 400lpm fuel pump(bought the car with mods) and pushes around 370hp. Now, i've been doing a lot of research about it and all it shows me is 'lph' and not much about lpm. Does anyone know anything about it?

I think it’s nice, shame we didn’t get it here in Brazil (also we only got the lancer GLX, we only got the evo in the evo x)
