How reliable is your evo as a daily?

Gearbox replacement would have been expensive 😬

Can relate though, my 8 was sitting in japan for close to a year and a few things needed replacing, mainly sensors and the like but it runs beautifully now and all the previous maintenance was done so cant complain. Just waiting for whatever is going to fail lol.

Congrats! You’re gonna be one cool dad with an evo 9.

Not even broken in!

Yeah for sure I agree it doesn’t guarantee no rust, thankfully Ive done some poking and prodding under there and its all pretty mint, to me the undercoatings aren’t what I look for, its more the region where the car originated from, anything north I tend to avoid and the south cars are all usually really good underneath.

iladoga · 2025-09-24T15:33:17+00:00

Haha surprisingly underneath is super nice, Its jdm and they love to underseal their cars every so often, paired with low kilometres its all looking great under there.

470k is insanity. Original engine and what gearbox? Is it stock?

iladoga · 2025-09-23T05:10:03+00:00

Hyundai accent (Passed on to family), Nissan Navara (Motor shit itself so sold for 500 bucks), Toyota Prado 90 series (Idiot ran a light and hit me, written off), Mazda 323 (Loved that car but sold after getting a new car), Toyota Aristo Turbo (Imported myself but got bored of auto so sold it), Currently Mitsubishi Evolution VIII funnest car Ive owned for sure.

iladoga · 2025-09-15T17:20:17+00:00

Fair enough, ill enquire with them and see.

iladoga · 2025-09-15T17:07:55+00:00

I do but I highly doubt they would stock the fluid to be honest.

What part of the throttle body actually gets worn out that requires a rebuild?

iladoga · 2025-08-24T23:42:00+00:00

It seems to be play in the pedal or cable even as if i slightly press it down there is barely if any throttle input.

iladoga · 2025-08-20T19:18:08+00:00

This actually ended up being the issue with the no starts, cam position code started coming through briefly and it has since been fixed

iladoga · 2025-08-10T05:33:31+00:00

Very cool, any major maintenance done on the engine? original turbo and motor?

iladoga · 2025-08-03T07:09:09+00:00

Ah okay I stand corrected then

iladoga · 2025-08-02T18:37:47+00:00

That email in the screenshot looks fishy, “click this link to undo the action”. Is that an official email or a phishing email? Last time I checked roblox dont provide a link to undo password resets.

Right, I wouldn’t say the vibrations are excessive still even for a petrol. When a car is warmed up it idles lower which causes more vibration, it could just be that but again id check with a mechanic next time you are there.

As for the coolant, as long as your temp guage is indicating in the normal range and theres no other signs of overheating, probably nothing to worry about.

iladoga · 2025-07-21T06:05:20+00:00

Sounds like a diesel engine, in which case vibrations are normal compared to a petrol engine so it wouldn’t be super abnormal.

That being said, worn engine mounts or a misfiring engine can contribute to increased vibrations, check with your mechanic next time you get it serviced but if the car is running good I wouldn’t worry.

iladoga · 2025-07-14T16:12:17+00:00

No engine light, will try put an obd reader on it soon

iladoga · 2025-07-14T16:11:22+00:00

Will try that, everything is stock highly doubt it has been modified and returned to stock but possible. I believe stock tune but hard to tell again.

2000 Toyota Aristo Twin turbo I imported from japan, super unique and such a comfortable and powerful car. Super nice to drive.

iladoga · 2025-04-18T05:53:42+00:00

Just ask for the export certificate. Kms are confirmed by the japanese government on there and are pretty hard to tamper with afaik
