That looks gorgeous Dave, have fun in it.
Is it standard under the bonnet or has it been tweaked?

It has the extreme stage 1 conversion which is fast road suspension / geometry, full HKS decat / induction, ralliart ecu upgrade, uprated con rod bolts, heavy duty clutch....supposed to be good for just over 300bhp I'm told

I'd say 300bhp is a modest estimate considering the spec, gotta be nearer 330 at least.

What is the year / mileage? can't believe how clean it looks mate, bet you were grinning like a Cheshire cat driving that home from the dealers

Danny....it's a 2000 plate with 32k miles.....and yes it is very very clean....not a mark on it at all

Do you really think it would be nearer 330?

Looks like you got yourself the XT330 conversion then jammy sod.
http://www.xtreme-uk.net/TuningMenuPricing.asp

Tuning Packages for Evo V - VII -VIII - MR
XT330

HKS Sports Air Induction kit

Haywood and Scott Sports Exhaust system with down pipe, fully manufactured from high grade stainless steel.

ARP uprated Competition Conrod Bolts

Turbo boost upgrade (1.4 bar VII, 1.275 bar V & VI)

Castrol RS Fully Synthetic Engine Oil and replacement Oil Filter


This well proven and developed conversion was first offered by us in 1997 and since then we have modified over 200 Evolution V, VI and VII's proving it to be one of the most reliable packages available. Boasting over 320 BHP and 330ft/lbs Torque on VII this conversion is not just about an increase in power, the increased flexibility of the engine following our modifications is quite startling and is tremendous value for money.


Price: £1,595 including VAT and fitting.

Strange, rear fog light in the bumper and not in the light cluster?
Still, I don't know much about Evo's!

Import or UK car, still lovely though!
Would you mind saying how much u paid?

That's the norm for a UK supplied Evo, normally Jap versions that have been imported to the UK have them hanging underneath the bumber on a cheap & nasty rusty bracket which looks far worse than the bumper fog light IMO.

Thats right Danny......all EVO 6's were actually classed as "imports" i believe, but some where imported directly via Mitsubishi cars uk.

I got the original bill of sale for mine from the supplying dealer too
