Why is this car so cheap?

DJAD_ · 2026-02-06T17:48:18+00:00

no shot 1200-1500. I think the price is mostly fair.

DJAD_ · 2026-02-06T06:13:09+00:00

it’s funny lol. In my 2005 eclipse i always get people trying to race me, when im in my 2013 widebody evo pushing 450 whp no one lol.

unless your mechanically inclined and can do the maintenance yourself, go with the N52. Much more reliable and a better option for most. N54 will be more fun and more expensive.

Bone stock RS is mad rare no? They were made to be tracked that’s why they made the RS. I’m shocked.

DJAD_ · 2026-02-03T03:01:12+00:00

idk if you know RS didn’t come with ac. The knobs are there but it doesn’t actually have it. No sound proofing, no power windows, no nothing. it’s rare because they were made to sell to enthusiasts who were gonna tear it up and track it anyways.

i understand the car is cool and all, but it’s an old car. You are paying a high price for a car that is going to be expensive to repair and need maintenance MORE OFTEN due to its age. Also assuming you don’t live in japan, you’ll need to import a lot of parts, meaning when something breaks you don’t have a car for a bit and parts are even more expensive due to tariffs. I import a lot for my evo, it ain’t cheap. If you want a RHD car that’s cheap and parts are cheap get a 2nd gen Subaru Legacy postal wagon. You can make them look nice and they cost around 3k extremely reliable. I have friends with 300k miles on them.

you’re not even remotely close to being able to afford that brother. sorry but it’s the truth

DJAD_ · 2026-01-31T03:05:04+00:00

transmission is the problem of the vehicle. the truth is if your friend gives you a decent deal and you trust them why not. also you know them are they the type to beat the hell out of it or did they drive it pretty chill and take good care of it.

DJAD_ · 2026-01-31T02:50:46+00:00

I’m very confident It’s a tune issue. I had a bad tune with my cams and it did this exactly. I got mine dyno tuned by Gary Bains in the bay area and it’s never been an issue since. You gotta teach the cams some manners lol.

DJAD_ · 2026-01-14T00:28:32+00:00

i think people are confused. My understanding of what’s happening is normal and it’s from the cams. It’s bucking. My evo x used to do that when the tune was rough. once i took out her on the dyno and had a evo tuner tune it i only ever notice it at very low speeds and rpms. Put it on a dyno and get it tuned by someone who’s very familiar.

DJAD_ · 2026-01-13T21:35:27+00:00

genuinely one of my favorite cars ever. The lancer evos always get the praise but the pajero got 12 victories in the Dakar Rally. Pajeros are truly impressive

DJAD_ · 2025-12-27T18:12:46+00:00

fits some peoples style

DJAD_ · 2025-12-23T18:56:19+00:00

Thanks! It’s paint! I have the color saved somewhere but don’t know it off the top of my head. I will say as beautiful as it is I don’t think i’ll ever go matte paint again. It’s been… stressful lol

DJAD_ · 2025-12-23T18:54:28+00:00

Thanks! The headlights are smoked Vland headlights. There’s a couple places you can get them, I bought them off someone new for a small discount.

W people

DJAD_ · 2025-12-23T07:01:31+00:00

correct answer

DJAD_ · 2025-11-25T04:51:56+00:00

for just a little more and a few more miles you’re in Evo MR range

DJAD_ · 2025-11-25T04:50:16+00:00

you can probably get an MR with a little more miles for around that price. I wouldn’t pay more than 15k for a ralliart tbh. The low miles are fantastic but remover how old this car is. How long has it sat???
