evo mr

[kataklyzm]

hey anyone have some color info on the evo mr? i'm trying to convince the miss' to get one (she either wants to wait for the r34 to get cheaper, rx7 or a white evo) anyone know what colors the mr is coming in?

[Evo8andahalf]

you can try checking the euro site? i dont think ours is gonna come in the exact same colors but hopefully something similar to whats already availiable

[kimmievo]

I heard that there was going to be a Gunmetal Gray color added. The same color as the Titanium Pearl Eclipse (which I traded in for my Evo!)

Also, I think they are re-naming two of the colors...at least that's the rumor.

White, Silver, Red, and MR only Mica 8)

I thought I read something on Evom about it coming in Sept 05. :roll:

[EvoVIII]

just get a Regular GSR, more color, no need to wait, lower price, since most of us are going to mod it anyways, those suspension, rims etc.. might come off the MR after a year or so, I don't see the point of buying a over price Evo with those unnecessary upgrades

[toasty]

true that, you all will upgrade something on the current EVOs that you are driving now. Why trade it or buy an more expensive car.?

[kataklyzm]

i have a bby one, and i dont wanna get 2 of the exact same cars....so thats why i was thinking MR... i ogt a huge hook up at capitol so i wouldnt be paying anything close to msrp for it

I would get it for the 6 speed

[toasty]

is getting a 6 speed that much better for the money?

[EvoVIII]

acutally the 6spd will have more problem then our 5speed, because the gearbox for the Evo is so tightly fitted and space is limited, the 6spd gearbox is the same size as our 5spd but needed even more space then our 5spd, so u do the thinking, that's what I heard back from Asia, they rather have a 5spd instead of 6 because it has a higher rate of failing then the rock solid 5spd for racing

[kataklyzm]

again this would be my gf's car....she wont even hit boost in a regular evo.. she gets scared :P but she wants a fast car to drive even tho she doesnt drive fast :huh:

although a 6th cog would be nice for freeway driving past 70

[Evo8andahalf]

heh you can always give her your evo and take her mr

[LEVIII]

I dont know if I would call the 5 speed rock solid, Ive heard of quite a few problems with the syncros already.

I concur... :x

[EvoVIII]

if u were to compare the 5spd and 6spd, the 6spd will have even more problem then the 5spd but all depends on how you drive ur car

[Evo8andahalf]

sometimes i feel like i have problems with my syncros..either i cant get it into gear or it feels notchy when running through some gears

[Whooopasss]

try synchromesh oil from GM. it made a big change for me.

Which version did you use? Apparently there is a high friction and a normal type.

I went to the GM dealership and got the regular non synth sychromesh tranny oil.. they are about $12 per botle and you need 3.
