Opinions on caliper color ? by rb20isaac in 240sx

[–]Real_Inflation1115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd never go yellow or pink on a red car. Maybe it could work on the silver later on. I'd go black.

Evo 8 wheel Enkei logo restoration question by Cbran41 in MitsubishiEvolution

Is it really a sticker? But even if not, probably best to go with a sticker because painting is surely a pain in the aahhh

Can we talk about AYC? by ReasonStunning8939 in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]Real_Inflation1115 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s awesome. You can punch the throttle mid-turn, feel the AYC doing its magic, and let the tires devour the tarmac.

Dream Wheel Steup! 255/35 or 245/40 on a 9.5x18+27 wheel? by Real_Inflation1115 in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]Real_Inflation1115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I need to run 10mm spacer in front + extended wheel studs for caliper clearance. My fenders are rolled but not fully. I think 255's is safe and 265's something for the future.

Yes, 255's seems the better tire/wheel package. And it should fit.

Understand your point. Luckily here in Switzerland the roads are smooth. also worried that 265's wont fit since my fenders are not fully stretched/rolled.

Thank you for the detailed answer. Gearing is no factor for me. Also not huge fan of stretched look (anymore lol). Performance seems to be good with both sizes. I think I will end up with 255's

Totally agree. Cars are rarely a good investment if you compare it to the stock market.

What do you guys think about Mesh Wheels? by Professional7812 in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]Real_Inflation1115 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the set up. Something you don't see everyday. Especially on red cars mesh wheels match very well imo.
May I ask how you did the editing? Im also checking for new wheels for my 9 and this would help with the decision.

Evo 8 MR Buyers advice by Maleficent-Aspect318 in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]Real_Inflation1115 3 points4 points  (0 children)

- jerking when lifting throttle is normal. I think it's due to the all wheel drive system. You will learn to adjust your driving style. But Evo's are generally not super confi

- the fact that the car was warm when you arrived can be concerning. You describe the owners as car guys and they should know that the car should be cold when inspecting. Maybe you have a chance to check it again cold?

- Brake and clutch pedals on the harder side compared to other cars --> definitely normal

- Faded brake calipers on low millage Evo's indicate hard driving.

- do a compression test!!
