Nice ride there. Had an evo 9 about 2.5 years back. Looks like we are taking a totally different route in our lives. I came from an r33 gtr to an evo 9 to a vw r36 and now i'm looking at purchasing an Aurion and banking the leftover money. Evos are great cars, very responsive to mild mods. I know a few evooz members from QLD area (i assume you are from QLD?). There are a couple of nice tracks up there. This baby can definitely rip it up. Only bad thing about the evo is it's turning circle. Good luck making a U-turn on a narrow road :) I must say the 0-100 timings with 235 awkw probably won't be anywhere near 3.5secs though, definitely not with a stock turbo :). My evo 9 had 245 awkw (i had a FP Green turbo, full exhaust, 1.5 bar boost, cams, gruppe m intake, bigger injectors and Motec) and the best it did was 4.4secs. You must know that from 8 secs down to 6 secs is easy, from 5 secs to 4.9secs requires heaps of power. Couple of pictures of my evo :) http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/215/frontegx.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/42/frontdriver.jpg/ Now, back to my search for an Aurion :)
