That looks very clean for its age. Best shape IMO. Any plans for it?

Also my favourite generation of Evo.

Sounds like a good spec as well.

looking good. remember many years ago, a place not far from me used to bring them in ( Warrander in Bolton ). these, 22b's, skylines etc. always used to enjoy having a ride up to admire them. there was nothing else like them.

yours looks really clean. enjoy.

Really tidy looking car and a perfect spec for a fast road weapon. I love it.

I bought a White IV from Warrander back in the early 00's. It had just come in from Japan, 30k mls, no underseal and totally standard. It was a very clean car.
I have owned and sold a VI and a VII since but that IV was my favourite.

Absolutely stunning. This or the V are my favourite shapes. I took this photo of a wide arch IV at Japfest, in case you need ideas biggrin

Fantastic. It is such a shame to think that the glory days of these rally derived soorts saloons is are well gone now. The arms race between Mitsubishi and Subaru produced some amazing cars.

thanks for the awesome responses everybody - LOVE that widearched example there to!

the Motec was mapped by russ @ HQ in scotland, very good reputation and it produced 306bhp @ the wheels on their dyno which is a great result!

A lovely car. I had a IV which from memory was running 330 BHP and it was still reasonably quick. With the newer block in there you don't have the crank walk issues and you're an MR turbo, some injectors and a remap away from 400 BHP.
