Just a quick post to see if anybody can tell me exactly what is different about an FQ400 to a normal evo, Obviously the power but what else, I know it has carbon spliter, carbon rear wing, carbon dash, carbon heat sheild on rear bumper, Carbon shark fins on the roof and FQ400 on the seats.

Were they all Gunmetal or were there different colours?

Ive had almost every Jap car, scooby's, Skyline, Supra TT etc but this is my first Evo and I hold my hands up, I dont know that much.

Cheers.

the much bhed about car on the mlr ! think it was mostly due to jealously or the fact that people bought them new for 40k+.. Well put together and blisteringly quick, std map isnt the best though..

All the Mr's have carbon goodies, but you might have a few extra.

Come on, everyone knows what that means! "This thread is useless without......" Guess the usual gif couldn't be found? Or was it decided that it was non-PH to use it anymore? wink

If he doesn't post pics, then look at mine and in your imagination, add some smaller wing mirrors and baby shark fins on the back. smile

I think there was a FQ400 vs Zonda article in Evo when they first came out, great read, if you want it and can't find a copy online I can probably find it and scan it for you.

Amazing car mate!!!!! As said get over the MLR there are so many good guys with a huge knowledge on these cars.
I've got an FQ300 which is quick but yours will be blistering!!!!
It's been pointed out that a remap would benefit as they're not the best from the factory!
