# Soju : The Evo looks vicious

There's always been a thing that makes barebone car looks vicious ;) By the way thanks!

# Sleepin mOnkey : Hoonigan AF

We Frame bangin'

# MACKAY : Awesome progress on the Evo man ! I am hundred percent sure that with the right man behind the wheel it will be going around Tsukuba in less than 58' seconds or even less, remember my words.. I should come visit you, would like to take a look from up close. Also about that track day, count me in too, I would be more than happy to accompany you as I been going to tracks lately myself. ;)

Thanks for the support! I hope we can meet up again. You should bring your car to the track too. Or make a new build, perhaps?
Doubt it'll reach under 58 with me behind the wheel though :)) Just kidding.



Since the last update got sank in the last page so i bump it:

last update:
# holeecrab :

Things has been pretty good so far. So yeah, i've done the chassis reinforcement. I was supposed to update it on this thread but since i also ordered some running gears so i think i had to delayed it for a bit.
I ordered HKS Hipermax Suspension and some AP Racing Brakes. Big Diameters for Big Action. I finished it with TE37 Time Attack Ed and Advan A308 Rubbers.



Talking about chassis, i've been putting some rollcage as well. Sadly since it was a full-fledged rollcage i think this won't be a street-legal car anymore unless i got caught by police by driving it on public roads lmao. Also i've installed a Recaro Bucket seat.



I've tweaked the engine for a bit. Now it's boosted by HKS GT3240 turbo, boasting about 570 Horses. Don't worry about the internal since i have modified it aswell, no more stock stuff!

Anyway, as anything has been modified, bar the body parts (some of my friend had a CFD Programs and i asked for help about it) I think i had to test it somewhere. Sadly Asan Circuit is closed at the moment (also driving a bare car in a circuit would be a no-no) so i had to test it somewhere. I had a friend who serves at the docks and probably he will allow me to do a run at night, where there's no activity there -
and he gladly did.



Since the body parts was non-existent so there's virtually no downforce so the thing that i could do is testing the slow corner speed to check out how the car's mechanical grip produces.
to be quite honest it wasn't what i expect but i'm quite satisfied so far.



As the night goes darker i decided to call it a day.

Anyway i heard that there's a track day event somewhere (i don't really remember where it is, i'll check it out later) so if the car's ready i'll use it as a testbed. Well, if the body are ready at time. If it's not, then i had to do my own way - gonna talk more about it later.
