I hate to be a downer but if the Z was a endless money pit of expenses, dont expect the EVO to be easier on the wallet. Soft tires, a weak stock clutch, Mobil1 oil, and 91 octane gas isn't my idea of cheaper expenses. But look luck with a sick car. Having worked for Mitsu and working on the Evo, Im wanted one since it hit the showroom floors.

Thanks, It was a very cool car it just spent more time in my garage or the shop than I would have liked.

The one thing I do like about 350's compared to EVO's and STI's is the top end speed for one, and there just more of a sexy car. The EVO reminds me of a Sedan on Steroids.

If you are concerned about your warranty, then I would suggest you take it easy on the modifications to the EVO. Otherwise if anything does go wrong, you will have a fun time fighting with the dealer.

Good luck!

Yeah I hear ya, I plan to mostly make this more of a show car. The drop in, a cat-back, and a flash is gonna do it for performance, I dont want this car to turn out like the 350.
