Evo 7

[AdDaMan]

Picked up the replacement for the E92 M3 yesterday. It's a scratch iv'e needed to itch for a long time now.
It felt seemingly impossible to find a non rusty decent spec evo for less than 20k but 1 popped up and i snapped it up within hours.

It's a very good car, Evo 7 import, cam over in 2015 and 1 owner since.
Had a full 5k respray 2 years ago.
Solid underneath, no rust on the car at all.

Norris Designs forged engine.
Tomei S1 Cams
Link G4+ Standalone
Hybrid 80 series turbo
HKS Exhaust
Other supporting mods

K-Sport 8 Pot fronts
K sport 4 pot rears
Meister-R coilovers
Genuine Rays SE37's

8MR Interior
8MR Wheel
9GT Doorcards
8MR Headlights

& lots of other nice bits.

Roughly 440bhp.

It's not bad as it is, need to change a few bits looks wise, but more importantly need to change the map. It's shocking, Very strange, it has 0 timing in it at all. Like literally 0 when on boost. Was mapped by Norris originally but then by BME i believe...
It's still quick as it is but will be way faster once me and my friend spend some time on it.

Nice mate. Loved my 7 and that was epic with 360.

What are the plans for it? Going to go big power like the civic? Didn't realise the M3 was up for sale

It wasn't tbh. Spur of the moment thing. Replied to a wanted ad.
As for the Evo, i'm going to perfect it on this setup and then prob go bigger turbo, but nothing crazy maybe 500-550bhp but no more.

assuming it has a paddle clutch?. What a joy they are lol.

Yeah organic ACT 500ft/lbs rated one. You do get used to them when you have been using them for 15 years 😂

The Ross Sport HPB-IX seems to fit that category pretty well

Where the hell are you from?! Bradford?

I live in Bradford and the poshest takeaway driver car I've EVER seen is a Scirocco on a 10 plate

Anyone that thinks an Evo is a takeaway owner car needs to wash their f**king brain with domestos

 

[brisa4984]

Very nice. Enjoy.

When I was at uni, one of the kebab places in town was run by a guy with a modified Evo 8. He used it for deliveries sometimes!

 

[Inequality Street]

Excellent!

 

[Ian_182]

I always wanted a metallic blue 7 years ago.

Good luck with it.

Should be around 800bhp within a month lol.

[Krarl]

Aye but @R3k1355 is a massive spaniel

Everyone knows that Indians love a good E220 CDI boat and nothing more

 

[gavinf91]

at least he’s the owner and not a driver like if he had a subaru

 

[R3k1355]

I was right about Peugeot owners tho

Also somewhat impressed that @gavinf91 bothered to read and remember something I wrote 3 years ago.

It was Stafford. Jewel of the Midlands.

[thecrim22]

Pic of the 8 MR seats. Way better than stock ones imo.

 

[Ant1]

They are IX Ralliart seats that came in the FQ360
(Not MR360) not 8mr. Hard to get hold of.

If mint they are worth around £1500

Yeah they are mint. Full interior with door cards too. Assumed they'd be at least £1000+

 

[AdDaMan]

@Ant1 Aren't all FQ360 IX MR's by nature? I cant see these seats in any pics. Rare optional extra?

No the FQ340/FQ360 had the leather Ralliart seats that can be seen here.
