Evo IX

[xcuzme]

heres my daily driver...and weekend driver. drive it everyday, drive it to work, drive it for work, drive it everywhere hehehehe

previously owned a blue s15 which some of you might remember, same plates, blue again with a fair bit of work done to it. and it was featured in fast fours many moons ago.

bought this car in november 05 and it didnt stay stock very long. styling is a bit of everything, i dont really follow jdm, or usdm or any of that stuff, i mix everything all together. bits of jap influence, bits of us influence, bits of aus influence :)

anyway here it is:

reversing camera
infiniti kappa splits
jl 12w6 sub
audison lrx5 amp

sound deadened front doors

i think thats it off the top of my head, probably forgot a few things....

its made anywhere between 180 and 195kw on the dyno depending on which dyno
ran a 13.0 @ 106mph with a 1.9 60 footer a while back before the last mods, so hopefully after the tune i will be heading for some low 12s :)

thanks to:
platinum car audio and interiors for the stereo and interior work
is motor racing for my mechanical work
eugene (mxfly) from nissan silvia for a lot of the parts
and everyone else who has helped out :)

and now the pics, and theres lots of them :)
enjoy!

[van]

Not diging the tan interior, but dude I have to say, those Advans look freaking AMAZING!! Really nice looking car, good work :)

[chuingbeans]

:shock: !!!!!!!!!!!

Motherfucking beautiful!!!!...Im sooooo jealous. It even looks a bit paht in one of the shots.

If the engine was just as good without a turbo, then I would be even more jealous!!!!

Im gonna go cry now. Someone tell me a hachi will look just as good...plz :cry:

*has been staring at pictures for like 5mins*

Ok, I love it! And I hope you never dare sell it.

[McCoey]

I have damp socks...

[Justin Fox]

I love this car, especially the wheels. I've seen it at IS Motor Racing a couple of times, those who were at the last meet would have even heard her start up.

:)

[xcuzme]

....and stall hahaha

[bogan]

hi there

[IcemaN]

some hot pics there,
LOL at damperchie:)
looks better in person i rekon.

[josh..]

wooweee very noice,
really like the wheels and im keen on that colour too.

[Omawari_San]

I want that "TEIN-Teddy-Bear-Thing". Not my favourite Colour for the leather (Must be awfull to keep clean) but the rest is cool.

Funny Numberplate!

[Sp33dY]

Great ride George :) ... you may remember me from such IRC rooms as #caa in 1999 / 2000 ..... i remember when you had the black lancer, and had only just purchased the S15! :P

[lovesil]

Very nice car indeed. Looks awesome in real life. Now, you just need abit more engine mod to bump up that horsepower of yours, George ;)

[PyRoMaNiAc]

im in love!

[Jing]

nice choice in wheels mate

[Gorilla]

awesome George

[ozstrider]

Wow thats gorgeous! That is all class right there. I personally love the interior. Its classy and comfortable (well comfy looking) without going way over the top.

And those advans are perfect. Driving it every day must be like a dream.

[rupewrecht]

Love the rims. Very nice!

[Dels]

Nice maiing. Lovin the rims. Awsome colour, 10/10 :)

[xcuzme]

Great ride George :) ... you may remember me from such IRC rooms as #caa in 1999 / 2000 ..... i remember when you had the black lancer, and had only just purchased the S15! :P

hey mate
i remember those days hehehehe

my old lancer was dark green though, not black
2000.....damn was it that long ago.......

[Deviliss]

Hot ride mate!!

[ntensity]

That is one stunning Evo I never realised the 9 has been out that long as well.

[CORZA]

Thats the way an evo should look, nice work mate

[josh2.5]

Holy shit!

Thats so damn nice! Wicked photos too

[Waggy]

Wow. That's one nice Evo!!

Whilst I wouldn't do it myself, I actually quite like the interior. Classy and not over the top. Thumbs up man.

[dhdevil]

fukking beautifull, not a fan of the interior tho.

how do you find the reversing camera on the pioneer deck? ive got the AVH-P7950DVD and im thinking of installing a camera. where is it mounted?

some demo pics would be sweet ;)

[xcuzme]

the reversing camera is awesome i love it
i have to park in a lot of tight spots so it definately comes in handy

the camera is a viscom one, i searched for weeks until i found one with mounting points that i could use. this one has the mounts on a ring around the camera, i bent up a roofing bracket i had and then attached this to the camera mounts so its exactly how i wanted it.

you can *just* see it above my number plate in the centre. you can see the silver bracket, i still have to spray it black so you cant see it.

ill take some demo pics and post them up :)

[dhdevil]

cheers mate, i love a bit of DIY here and there. whats the camera worth if you dont mind me asking.

[xcuzme]

it was about 200 off the top of my head

[felixR]

wheels look hot on the car..

looking good

[Tats]

Just quietly, I think the interior is horrid. But the rest of the package more than makes up for it. Hottest Evo EVER! Kudos to you mate :)

[Brucey]

One of the best Evo's i have seen and im loving the advans

[Dori*mon]

really hot evo!

[Justin Fox]

How's the clutch? I hate my twin plate, it's a bitch to use and nearly impossible on a steep hill to hill start without doing a 6000rpm launch!!!

[Levos1]

I love it man!
You did it Perfectly! You gotta have some interior in there!!
Platinum is the best for it! ahah!

[Jing]

could do with a fatter bodykit. Would make it so hot.

Any updates on this car since that sad sad circuit club day?????

What happened to it?:shock:

[rusty1]

What happened to it?:shock:

He had an accident with the wall at Eastern Creek(heavy front end damage):(

[RE99IE]

He had an accident with the wall at Eastern Creek(heavy front end damage):(

that is heart breaking ...did that happen on the recent twilight race?

[TENSE]

no it was sometime ago now

[RobSSS]

He had an accident with the wall at Eastern Creek(heavy front end damage):(

what a shame :(

[deluxe]

That's a very clean Evo mate. top stuff.

[van]

Am I the only one who reckons the IX is a better looking car than the X?

[.::F[L]Y::.]

very nice evo. though interior isnt my cup of tea.

[NO10VE]

Am I the only one who reckons the IX is a better looking car than the X?

nope, I agree 100% :)

[2GU UP]

nope, I agree 100% :)

as do i

[xcuzme]

it wasnt too heavy damage, mainly cosmetic and easily fixable :)
i just decided to replace anything i found even slightly damaged so the car is like brand new when i get it back

and then once i started doing that, i thought, fuck it lets pull the engine too

and then u know how it goes

now i suddenly have a new engine full of cosworth internals ready to go in.... hehehe

should have it back within a month or so depending on when the engine gets finished

some of you may have already seen it at a certain workshop sitting in the corner :)

[xcuzme]

teaser....

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/xcuzme/23012008617.jpg

hehehe

doing a few cosmetic things too, cant wait to get it back... ive been way too lazy, should of got it done at least 4 months ago :)

[Gorilla]

crazy mofo! Cant even handle stock power, so gets more, I like it hah

[xcuzme]

get fucked shane hahaha

[NO10VE]

damn man, going hard I see :)

good to hear alls good with the car now

[BeEasy]

great looking ix, love it. i think the ix looks better than the x too, the x is still growing on me...

[OVRDRV]

Your car is slow Georgie....

Ill race ya anyday.. haha...

How you been Mate.. Need to catch up for a coffee soon mate... :)

[Stivo]

The interior is very classy. i like it alot! Quite a rapid departure from the bland looking stock IX interior.

[xcuzme]

for those wondering what happened to this piece of shit haha

few teasers ;)

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/xcuzme/car%20nearly%20finished/27052008038.jpg

[rodent]

Oh damn, that's seriously awesome.

[2GU UP]

gonna be a bullet
awesome stuff

[black200]

complete package perhaps? i think so :D

Interior is not my thing, but height, wheels, kit, colour even. brilliant

[Rad]

Shit, cosworth - very nice!

[PyRoMaNiAc]

... tissues please!

[Middle Man]

Hell yeah ni99a! Can't wait! :D

Team Emperor y0!

[xcuzme]

more like team souvlaki yo haha
or team malakia :)

[Elwood]

Awesome car mate!

Tein SS's on an Evo - is that a common choice of coilovers?

[Aleks.B]

lol i saw that at ismr on saturday fuken AWESOME

[NO10VE]

wow :)

how much is it pushin now?

[blitz]

wow .. looks awesome..

makes me want an evo

[xcuzme]

yeah tein superstreets are pretty common on evos, well they were when i got mine about 2 years ago

at the moment its pushing zero haha
it hasnt been started yet, should be in a few days :)

[DR-JEKL]

shit cosworth engine components eh!

What sort of boost are u looking @ to justify the big $ forgies!?

Hopefully your driveline is up to the task eh :)

Simply awesome car man, the stance and rims are pure sex!

[Middle Man]

more like team souvlaki yo haha
or team malakia :)

:lol:

[xcuzme]

cosworth stuff isnt that much more expensive than other brands, i was quite suprised.

ive always been a fan of cosworth stuff ever since dreaming of escort cosworths as a kid :) and i like their reputation for being unbreakable

i want to do it once and never do it again haha

boost, not sure yet. it should take 1.7 bar without even raising a sweat

[4agte]

crazy mofo! Cant even handle stock power, so gets more, I like it hah

:lol:

[xcuzme]

shane should stick to setting mr2s on fire and shutting up :)

[xcuzme]

and its started up for the first time in 10 months

took a few cranks to get some fuel through the system then fired up easily :)

we were missing a gasket for the exhaust so only the dump pipe was connected so its a bit loud
you can hear the nice lumpy idle of those cosworth cams now :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BM_CZl5lRDk

[[J]]

:shock:

I wish you could leave it like that - it sounds so damn cool!!! :D

[markR]

mmmmmm lumpy :)

[CZ4A.]

sounds very very... musical.

[2GU UP]

TUFF

[NO10VE]

sounds mean as :)

[sub11z]

good stuff, i know the feeling when you get ur car back.

Let us know the result once is run in

[kula]

music to my ears

[felixR]

sounds beautiful!

[Elwood]

Was this at Touge Tune??

Garage looks abit like it..

:P

[OVTEC]

woah!

that thing sounds like a machine!

a really nice evo, even though im not feeling the interior everything else is WOW!

[Manny]

Fark George, that sounds hot mate...I see you put the rims back on, it didn't have it the other week when it was sitting out front of IS...

Damn you people and your cool mods...stop tempting me!

[xcuzme]

the interior is because the car is my daily driver, i like it comfy and fast. couldnt afford an e55 or e63 so the evo is a compromise :P

manny yeah i put the rims back on against everyones wishes lol
everytime i looked at it with those stockies and bubbled tyres, it made me angry.
the stockies can hide in the corner of my garage now :)

elwood, its at is motor racing

[mrkrooz]

dayum sick car ..im not feeln the interior but its still hot!!!!!!
Gold advans would've suited as well :)
hot car nonetheless ;)

[DR-JEKL]

That sounds like a cross between a harley and a tractor!!!

So this car is your daily driver and it hasnt started in 10 months?!?! christ I bet your sick of public transport !!

[xcuzme]

nah i also have a work ute and i always use other peoples cars :)

public transport wont help me for work haha

[danielb]

hahaha awesome car mate glad to see it heading towards being back on the road. Who did the rebuild for you, IS?

[xcuzme]

is do all the work on it :)
big thanks to indy, paul and darren for putting in the long hours :)

[JDM 15L]

the rims are most definitely the stand out of this car, very very cool!

[dopey]

looking good george, didn't realize it had been off the road so long, don't know how you kept sane knowing it was sitting there

[Buddah]

Oh wow, i've seen this sitting out front of IS a few times i didn't know it was this car. That brace you've got over the front looks sweet mate. I saw this today actually, and Indy in a og jdmst shirt, made me smile.

[dead32]

very nice car mate... $5 on that clutch not lasting first time into postive presure :D

[xcuzme]

i lost my sanity long ago from my job, the car doesnt bother me haha

yeah buddah thats the one. im a big fan of the cusco brace as well, looks mean. only problem is now, i got it and wasnt sure how it would look because no one had it. now that i have it, everyone wants it :(

hehe the jdmst pepsi shirt, hes representing!

the clutch will be fine with positive pressure. its the amount of 6k launches it will handle that im concerned about. im not a big fan of the sports organic personally or how it engages, im on my second one already. but indy knows im a psycho and wont let me have anything stronger :)

[Rad]

WTF, meanest sounding Evo ever! Sounds excellent!

[xcuzme]

you guys havent heard enough mean sounding evos

this thing is TAME :)

wait till i put my jasma approved exhaust back on all. all you will hear is a rough quiet idle ;)

[Edi-no-son]

haha that sounds crazyy weird...but i like lolz

I wanna get some cams soon too for my car hehe....
If i do change the cams like u do, anything else i need to change to accompany it incase something breaks down??

[dead32]

i lost my sanity long ago from my job, the car doesnt bother me haha

yeah buddah thats the one. im a big fan of the cusco brace as well, looks mean. only problem is now, i got it and wasnt sure how it would look because no one had it. now that i have it, everyone wants it :(

well when it blow's "which it will" . we have used full brass unsprung, cushioned button etc, harshest of the harsh and theyve all blown with a lightly modded race evo 9... track car, stdish engine etc... good luck, your gona need a twin plate of some sort.

VERY nice car btw, me like's

[xcuzme]

ed: you should at a minimum do valve springs and titanium retainers
and cam gear (only on exhaust), cant change the mivec intake one.

thats a minimum :) you can get by without it, but the cosworth cams are 11 degree lift so its recommended to do it.

dead32: what the fk have you guys been doing with this car? launching? :)
plenty of people in the states are getting by with light clutches. twin plate is very popular though over there.
have you tried carbon clutches?

[Edi-no-son]

How much did all that cost ya man??
And what made u choose the cosworth??

My mind been more set on the HKS one... for no apparent reason except brand hahaha

[xcuzme]

dont ask me about cost :(
i ignore that word

go on evolutionm.net and research cams. see what the americans who actually know what they are talking about say :)
hks cams for evo 9s are nothing special at all. cosworths and gscs are by far the most popular and cosworth have a reputation for r&d and quality. hell they were making parts for jun before, i think they still are too.

hks pfft you jdm whore haha

[dead32]

dutton rally... it now has a blown rear diff, as we speak :S

[xcuzme]

update and sneak peak :)

ive got the car back to put some run in k's on it :)

[Rad]

Very sexy car, love it.

[dopey]

looking good
engine bay looks tough, nice n neat not too blingy

[black200]

wait till i put my jasma approved exhaust back on all. all you will hear is a rough quiet idle ;)

You mean until full boost :D I see exgate

ps straight pipe or GTFO

[xcuzme]

yeh until full boost haha

its actually a lot louder than before just with the turbo change. it has this loud rumble on low revs that quietens down in midrange

unfortunately gate is recirc :( i want the car to be legal :(
hence quiet exhaust, recirc wastegate, airbox, heatshield over turbo etc etc

[mini bus]

George you nutter hahahahahaha
man love very little bit of the car
you have a weapon on your hands

well done mate

Colin

[2GU UP]

awesomeeee
only thing i would have done different is HPC the exhaust manifold

[Middle Man]

Awesome stuff mate, good to see you back on the road :cool:


p.s Update thread on GUNNA! :lol:

[prusso]

perfect imho....
the way an evo is meant to be done :)
wd mate, keep it up

[xcuzme]

awesomeeee
only thing i would have done different is HPC the exhaust manifold

i know! :(
biggest regret of mine

when we put the manifold on, it looked like it had some sort of coating on it, almost looked like teflon.
as soon as we put it on and out in the rain it rusted straight away.

im spewing about that :(

[Tonba]

Sounds hot dude... Love it...

Not sure on the interior though..

[xcuzme]

took some new pics at botany yesterday

[Gorilla]

[JDMtype R]

[xcuzme]

yeah paul cable tied it all together and glued it together with some honda bond haha

aiming for around 270kw at all 4 with 1.8bar

still working on the tune
tuning a factory ecu with a t67 and 720cc injectors is not as easy as we thought :)

[NO10VE]

jealousy's a b!tch...

awesome stuff :)

[.::F[L]Y::.]

spotted you today at Edgecliff i was the in the silver 350z next to you in traffic. Nice evo man! the wheels look incredible.

[Edi-no-son]

damnn man... I can't wait to see what this car can do in all sorts of ways!!

Ur car is like the icon for all the other evo drivers out there since all the mods are 'do-able' without having to fully rebuild the engine ^^

[Aleks.B]

See this car aswell at ISMR looks soo cool.

[jaze55]

I only wish my evo could look like this. If it did I would be livingh in it haha

[s_vtec]

hehe awesome colour evo :D

[xcuzme]

i should be living in it how much the bastard costs me haha

fly, silver 350? i was thinkin how sweet your exhaust sounds when you were driving in front of me dude, awesome exhaust note :)

ed yeah true, you could do it all on a stock motor, probably be a lot easier too haha

[.::F[L]Y::.]

Yea thanks man. Wish it were abit louder!

is the evo a daily driver man? i usually see you around the ct.

[xcuzme]

you dont want it too loud to attract too much attention
got a bit of carbon buildup on your rear bar too eh haha

yeah daily driver :)

i should post up more of the mods in here too

[Edi-no-son]

[Tonba]

Love what you are doing!!

You notice much difference with all the additional bracing?

[exquisit]

who is tat ugly head in the first shot!
haha

[2GU UP]

fuk i love this car
George i think its time for a detailed engine bay to complete it ;)

[black200]

tough looking car dude keeps improving. The blue bars up front are eye catching. spotted you on my bmx on edgecliff road

[jaze55]

Do you need spacers for the two front struts (not in pic)to clear your front pipe?

[Cazal 856]

Out of curiousity, why stock ECU?

[scud]

who is tat ugly head in the first shot!
haha


LOL!

[xcuzme]

hey dont diss damper-guchi!

anf: its as detailed as its getting mate haha, its built to be driven not to be wanked over :P

jaze, didnt need any spacers. my dump pipe (smb) clears both the factory and aftermarket bars.

broseph: a lot of guys in the states run stock ecus all the way up to 500hp or so, the factory ecu is very capable (well at least the us spec one is) and i wanted to try something different. plus all the factory knock control etc made me want to keep it.

but looks like fcon pro will replace it very soon along with some 1000cc injectors :)

Hey George. You didnt answer me.

The underbody chassis bars, Do you think they have made a difference? How do you rate them? Is the difference noticable?

Regards,
Alex

[exquisit]

haha im actually talking bout this pic

=p

[scud]

saw this car@IS on sat..

much better car in the flesh.. dunno bout the dodge mechanic u let loose on the car though =p

big fan of the carbon skirts!

[Tonba]

I dont mind the carbon skirts either... definatly unique!

[xcuzme]

i abuse the dodgy mechanics :)


haha yes chris is the dodgy head

tonba, sorry mate completely missed it.
i did notice a fair difference on my car, definately felt a lot more tighter all over. car is a lot more stable and chuckable, feels like an even tighter go kart now :)

another upside is even with the edfc on the hardest settings, the interior doesnt rattle like shit anymore when i hit a bump which is strange

[Cazal 856]

Why dont you go for a Motec instead of F-Con??

[Kaotic]

Talk about bracing:D

very nice

[xcuzme]

motec was a lot more expensive

well at least a lot more expensive than the price i got the fcon for ;)

[sub11z]

who is going to tune your f-con?

[xcuzme]

is motor racing :)

[shonen]

thomas
hondas dont need catch cans mate, just let the oil leak out for weight savings.
no rotors yet, still planning to eventually. might just wait until mine are completely farked, which wont be long anyway.

[Middle Man]

Car needs more mods......STAT!

[Aleks.B]

thats only on just under 26psi
theres still more boost and revs left

might go wsid on wednesday to see how it runs....

[hksgtr]

Very nice power, still a little laggy? Looks like you get full boost around 5400rpm?

[The_Giefster]

Wow nice power but massive lag! I'm on full boost (1.5bar) at 3450rpm.

[xcuzme]

thats what happens with a big turbo :)

[Middle Man]

This car is awesome, I love it :cool:

[jdm101]

its cars like these that convince me an Evo is the only upgrade should I ever consider changing brands :) - well done!

[xcuzme]

u malaka bumpin my thread t


thanks jdm

[Middle Man]

I actually wanted to compare your dyno sheets - 2months ago vs a week ago.

2kw's difference means IS's dyno is pretty fucking consistent if you ask me - dunno where the 7% comes from...

[xcuzme]

well as much as i love this car
the end of my lease is fast approaching, so for those who are interested in owning a 305kw daily driver built tough as fuck, enquire within.

serious buyers only, if you pm me and offer me 30k, ill hunt you down and have sex with your sister

[rusty1]

Considering how much you have put into that car why don't you pay out the lease and keep it. If not,whats next :?:

[xcuzme]

im thinking of keeping it but then id have to leave it at my parents house because i only have one spot at my place...

im looking at getting an 05 m3 cabrio or something like that

and then next year by a thrash car when i move out of here and get a house :)

[mitsupower90]

freakin shit man. Very, Very Nice. Thats how it should look bro. Good stuff and good luck with it....

[Leonsx]

Those wheels are beautiful mate!

[blackster]

Nice build & ride; probably not the turbo I would use on a 4 banger due to lag. If its stroker with plenty of revs and top end power is your goal, your not far from it.

[xcuzme]

the lag doesnt really matter when you fly past cars like they are stationary with a vertical power curve

Dont get me wrong I think your car is awesome, it appears the set up and the direction is more suited to "drag car" racing.

[03DC5R]

[bushtucker]
