Thread: 06 Evolution X

i dont know if you guys already talked about it or not
but to me, it looks 10000 times uglier than the evo8.
and for sure i am not paying 30k for it.

but it's got MIVEC and a turbo!!!!

I know the motor is oriented opposite of ours, but I'm seriously thinking about making one fit in my GSX... I can't see there being that much fabbing, it is the last year of the 4G63, so it's in essence the same motor, so maybe motor mounts, and I'd need to put new exhaust (being in the back of the motor 'stead of the front) and plumb up the intercooler/intake.... but it would keep the heat from the turbo away from my radiator and intercooler

It's a badass motor... I don't care for the body style, but I really dig the 2g eclipse/talon

the evo x is not using a 4g63 at all, its gonna be some small a$$ v6 or a totally new motor, the 4g63 dies with the evo 9

Is the evo9 the one with MIVEC? I thought that the 4g63 was coming to the states with MIVEC for it's last glory run before they swapped motors?

no more 4g63 :(

the article says," although details are sketchy, the evo X will feature a rounder design with a more aggressive face and stace. A new turbocharged inline-4 along with a new all-wheel-drive system thats similiar to the one being used by World Rally race car are rumored to be in development. Power will be at least 300 BHP...it will be introduced sometime in 2007 with a price tag of about 30k"

yeah the evo 9 is the one comin out late this year, the evo 10 comes out in 07 maybe 08

Alrighty, that's what had confused me then, so, cool, there's still a chance some rich yuppy will buy one and wreck it, and I can take his motor ;o)

Rich yuppies don't drive EVO's....they drive Porsches, BMW's and Benz's

look on eBay or on EVO forums and you will find totaled EVO's everywhere. You know who it is who totals them? Snot nosed little punks who can't drive to save their a$$.
