Speaking of "Daddy Car", many people will think of Audi RS-6, Volkswagen R36 and other models, so today I will share a different "Daddy Car", which is Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9 wagon, which can be called "Super Daddy Car" in the hearts of JDM fans!
"Hello everyone, I am Xiaocai, a Chinese living in Edmonton, Canada, one of the partners in a local repair and modification shop, I am in charge of the business of the company is film, this EVO 9 crock pot is my grandfather's romance!" 」
"The reason for buying this EVO 9 crock pot is that when I was a child, I watched the movie "Chariot of Fire 2 Speed Legend" and saw Sky brother driving an EVO 5 and fell in love with the EVO car! In the EVO series, I like the 5th, 9th and 10th generations the most, and the first car I bought in 2009 was the EVO 10, because the 10th generation was the first model to be listed in Canada. "
"In 2012, if you want to buy an EVO 5, you can import it into Canada for 15 years or more, and it is legal to go on the road!" But at that time, the funds were not enough, so I had to make up my mind to buy a 9th generation in 2020! In January 2020, I successfully bid for the 2005 EVO 9 GT Wagon through an intermediary at an auction house in Japan (the travel version only produced 2609 units in mass production), becoming the first EVO tank owner in Canada. "
"In January 2020, although the EVO 9 crock tank was successfully photographed, due to Canada's 15-year import policy, the intermediate car could only stay in the Japanese port for nearly half a year. However, during this time, I did not idle, and through my relationship, I contacted Garage G Force, a store in Japan that specializes in changing EVO, and first dragged the car over for engine refurbishment and reinforcement. (Garage G Force's modified EVO finished fifth at 52.391 laps at Tsukuba Raceway in Japan)"
"This EVO 9 crock tank has been customized before being shipped to Canada, and the purpose of the modification is to realize his dream, and the second is to use it for publicity for his own modification shop." The week the car arrived, the car was first cleaned up, refurbished, and the modified parts of the goods were installed, especially the headshade that had been yellowed by the years, the headlights were disassembled, the parts were blackened, and the lampshades were polished and renovated. "
"My refit idea has always been to put performance first appearance second purpose, so this EVO 9 crock tank with 4G63 red-headed magic machine can burst out 485.4 hp / 550.7 Nm with the blessing of various performance modifications, using No. 94 oil (about equal to 101.5 in China) and turbo pressure of 1.9 bar, and can explode 593.7 hp / 676.7 Nm with E85 ethanol gasoline and turbo pressure of 2.4 bar! And this is the horsepower on the wheel, the head horsepower needs to be its own product! (What has been changed specifically, please see the final list of modifications)
Because of the purpose of appearance second, so the appearance has not been changed too much, the whole car "very yellow and violent" film plus Rallyart front lip, Damd carbon fiber side skirt, rear skirt, Seibon CW carbon fiber cover and Ken Style tail, of course, there are many modifications have not arrived, the follow-up will be perfected one by one. "
"At present, the state of this car is here, and there are many modified parts because the construction period is relatively long, so the back will slowly toss, and various modifications and repairs have cost more than 400,000 yuan." All this was done in vain, and this EVO 9 crock pot also won the award for best EVO at DRIVEN, Canada's largest local modification exhibition! "
"The dissatisfaction with this car is that many of the modified parts have been discontinued, and another point is that the exhaust is too noisy, especially the carriage resonance is particularly serious, I don't know if it is because of the relationship between the crock pots, so I ordered a new exhaust, and the follow-up will be replaced to try."
"Playing this EVO 9 crock pot did not take any detours, because before when changing the EVO10, there have been many detours, such as suspension, turbine, etc., thinking that many parts are installed with the effect that should be there." Now with the experience of the previous 10 generations and the shortcomings of the car system, the modification idea of the 9th generation is very clear. "
"Many people who play with cars don't know that EVO actually has a travel version, after all, the mass production is too small, when driving it out, people often roll down the window on the road to ask what kind of car it is, driving a 'super daddy car' whether it is on the street or off the track, it is very feeling!"
"This EVO 9 crock pot will be slowly packed to the most ideal condition, and the future plan is to buy and collect the Mitsubishi EVO series from the 1st to the 10th generation!"
